In the temple of the capital Beijing, people found a strange beggar, who often traveled between the major monasteries in Beijing, sometimes in Shilin, sometimes in Tongjiao Temple, sometimes in Guanghua Temple...... You can't tell what is different about him, he sleeps on the streets day and night, he has no money, he eats and drinks mostly by monasteries and dojos, and he never saves money (sometimes when others give more, he gives to other people who are more in need), he only recites Amitabha.

Yes, this person is the second gang, after returning from London, England, the second gang asked Dr. Shao to leave, and Dr. Shao did not stop and force, but respected the decision of the second gang.

Why did the two gangs choose to be beggars, and no one can say why, so let's take a look at the two gangs' conversations with some curious people on the street, maybe we can also understand from it.

Someone asked: Why don't you get a job and eat on your own at such a young age, why are you begging here?

The second gang replied: I kneel here to let my vanity fail. It is to let yourself save face and be ashamed of yourself. It is to let one's own falsehood completely collapse. I am not a beggar because I eat, nor do I go to eat because I am a beggar. If I can't let go of my vanity, my own face, my own falsehood, no matter how good my job, what a high salary, what an enviable life, I still live in vanity, I am still manipulated by my falsehood, I live, what real freedom can I have?

Someone else asked: Do you feel ashamed that you beggars, who live on the charity of others, come here to beg at such a young age?

The second gang replied: If I am ashamed, I will definitely not come here to beg. If I had held on to my false face, I would never have come here to beg. What others give me is exactly what I need to reflect on. I am grateful to those who give me things, and I am grateful to those who judge me in any words, because you have made me understand the truth of being a human being.

Someone asked: Are you begging for money? Or is it begging?

The gang replied that when I let go of my falsehood completely, my begging will be successful. When I completely stopped trying to get by, my begging was successful. When I completely stopped stumbling from side to side because of my vanity, my begging was successful. I don't come to beg for money, nor do I come to beg for food. I came to beg because of my vanity, my falsehood, my own face.

Someone asked: What motivates you to become a beggar?

The second gang replied: My falsehood, my vanity, my face. Without them, do I still need to beg? I thank them for giving me the opportunity to beg.

Someone asked: Do you beg here every day?

The second gang replied: I don't stay here every day, I run around, and when I go there, I beg there.

Someone asked: Why do you still wear a pair of single shoes on such a cold day? The money you begged for was enough to buy you a pair of cotton shoes.

The second gang replied: If your feet are cold, you can keep them warm with anything. But once people's hearts are cold, no matter how much money they have, no matter how thick cotton shoes they are, they will be in vain. Although my feet are very cold, I have to feel it really, and I don't stop begging because my feet are cold. For my heart is always burning, and she can dissolve all my troubles, let alone an insignificant foot. People in the world always take care of the outer things, but they don't know how to take care of the inner things. No matter how beautiful the outside is, the inside is already dilapidated.

Someone else asked: I don't think you are a beggar, who are you?

The two gangs smiled and replied: Even though I told you what kind of person I am, I am still a stranger to you. Why does the world like to know others but not to know themselves? No matter how well you understand others, you are still unfamiliar with yourself.

Someone else asked: I threw you a dollar, why don't you say thank you?

The two men replied: When I saw your compassion, I didn't care about a penny anymore. Your compassion cannot be summed up in the word thank you. I can only hold your act of mercy deep in my heart and taste it slowly.

Someone asked: What is it like to be a beggar?

The two gangs replied: If people burn incense, each has a clear heart.

Someone else said: Beggars are liars, I have seen a lot.

The two gangs did not answer, but asked: Everyone is a beggar. or begging for emotion, or begging for power, or begging for material wealth, or begging for nominal status, or begging for health, or begging for happiness and happiness. Have you ever seen such a beggar?

The man said, "How do I not know?"

The second gang replied: Because in your heart, beggars are liars, and you are always obsessed with this place, as if you are always obsessed with looking at a place, no matter how wonderful the outside world is, you still can't see it. If a person is always obsessed with a fixed answer, then you will always stay in this place. It's like you take a mirror to look at others, but you forget to look at yourself.

Some people said: It turns out that being a beggar is not so simple.

The two gangs explained: Beggars are made by people. It's not the beggars themselves who do beggars. Different people, different beggars. A person with an evil heart, being a beggar, will pollute a large area. A person with a good heart, being a beggar, will infect a large area. Just like a beggar, selflessly donating the money he begged for to charity or people in disaster areas, how great is this kind of beggar? And this great act, but from the hands of a beggar, can make more people, even a lifetime of memory.

Therefore, we cannot deny all beggars in a point-by-point manner, on the contrary, we must look at beggars with a kind eye.

Although some beggars are indeed disgusted and hated, they can kneel and lie down for a long time, and this behavior will also make people feel pity and compassion. Certainly, they did not do the things of murder and arson, let alone do some unseemly deeds behind the backs of some people, harming the good and good, and using extremely evil hearts to achieve their evil goals.

Just by virtue of this, the beggar is still kind.

People's hearts should be enlarged and relaxed, so that the road in front of you will be easier to walk. Some people, a meal can squander thousands of yuan, even tens of thousands of yuan, hundreds of thousands of yuan, is it that in the face of a beggar, you just need to throw a few grains of money casually, are you so stingy?

Some people retorted unconvincedly: According to what you say, should we nourish those who are lazy and lazy and do nothing?

The two gangs replied, "People, sooner or later, they will come to their senses." People can't be beggars all their lives.

However, it is precisely because they used to be beggars and saw the alms given to them by many kind people that the seeds of kindness have already been planted in their hearts. When the karma is ripe, the seeds of kindness in their hearts will sprout. Moreover, even if the beggar is indifferent, there are many people who give alms, and there are also many people who see it in their eyes and know it in their hearts. Isn't this also planting good roots for the public?

Sometimes, an unintentional move can infect a large number of people. Sometimes, a seed can benefit more people.

Someone asked puzzledly: What is the money you begged for?

The two gangs replied, "I have returned the money I begged for to other beggars."

Someone asked again: Are you sick? Nerve problems? How can there be a beggar like you?

The two gangs replied: Everything has a cause.

Some curious people ask: What did you do before?

The two gangs replied: I only know that I am a beggar now.

Someone else asked, "All the other beggars are on their knees, lying down and begging." How do you beg cross-legged?

The two gangs asked rhetorically: Do you like to stand or sit when you eat?

The questioner replied: Of course, I like to sit and eat. How comfortable it is to sit and eat.

The second gang said: They, me, and you, although their postures are different, feel the same. They kneel, lie down, and it is possible that they have their thoughts. However, without the time to kneel, without the time to lie down, it is estimated that the money begging will not be so much. When I sit, it is the posture that suits me, and when you sit, it also suits your posture. The same people, each with his own mind. At this point, there is no need to speculate.

Someone asked: You see that your hair is so long, why don't you get a haircut? Dirty.

The two gangs replied: As long as the heart is clean, it is better than anything else.

The questioner was unconvinced and said, "You mean to say that my heart is not clean?"

The two gangs replied, "In my heart, you are a bodhisattva."

Someone asked: Are you religious?

The second gang replied: I am a beggar now, I just want to be a beggar seriously, and nothing else has much to do with me.

The people said, "It's rare!"

The two gangs returned the salute and said: No, it's not difficult.
