Chapter 686: Patience and Immobility
(a)
The central air conditioning in the shooting range was finally turned on, and the whole field immediately swept away the cold and damp and became warm. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThere are no more cases where my hands and feet are frozen and woody during training.
Because it hadn't been turned on for months, the first few days of the air conditioning system were very unstable, and the temperature went up and down.
On this day, the temperature was very high, and everyone started wearing sweaters, and then they were forced to take off and only wear shirts, and after a while, wearing shirts was also very hot. Everyone was sweating and changing into the big padded jackets for training, which were the clothes needed to keep the body stable. The team doctor enthusiastically took out the big ceiling fan in the storeroom, which brought us a hint of coolness in the heat.
We sweated and lined up in the field.
You say, "Is it hot?" Everybody. ”
We honestly replied, "Hot!" Guide! ”
You say, "Irritable?" ”
We replied, "Fidritable!" Guide! ”
You reach out and turn the big fan around, pointing in the direction of the queue.
A cool breeze blew. You say, "Are you comfortable?" ”
We replied, "Comfortable!" Guide! ”
You say, "Now, pleasant?" ”
We replied, "Pleasant! Guide. ”
You reach out again and flip the fan in the other direction. Now, the sweltering heat is back.
You say, "Now?" Irritable again? ”
We looked at each other, and no one answered.
Say, "You see, the coming and going of a gust of wind can create waves of joy and sorrow in your hearts." When the waves of your hearts roll, is your gun likely to remain at its best stable? Are you the masters of your own hearts? Or is it this gust of wind, is it? ”
You say, "The wind on the field is blowing much harder than this fan." Not only are the natural winds of all kinds of weather blowing in random places, but there are also winds of desire in the hearts of all kinds of people, and they are also blowing in uncertain directions, including in your own hearts. Will you be able to remain calm in the midst of all these winds? If not, the outcome of the game, I already know. ”
You say: "The wind on the journey of life, and the wind on the playing field, are more complex and more violent. If you can't keep your journey calm, I know the end of your life now. There will be no good ending. Like a ship that gets out of control in a storm. This does not require a special function, nor does it require Mai physiognomy. That's a simple inference. ”
You say, "So, before you go to the race, you have to beat this gust of wind." First of all, protect your heart from it. Whoever can win, go. ”
(b)
You look around at everybody, and you say, "Now, answer me again." Is it hot? ”
Someone replied: "Not hot!" Guide! ”
You walk up to him. You look at his forehead.
You say, "What's on your forehead?" ”
"It's Khan! Guide! ”
"Sweating like this, don't you say it's hot?" You say, "Are you a normal human being?" ”
He hesitated for a moment and replied, "Don't be afraid of the heat!" Guide! ”
You laugh a little. You say, "The answer may be more truthful for fear of criticism." ”
You say, "Don't be afraid of the heat, it's not just a matter of words." The real fear is not in words. ”
You say, "It has to be proved by the body." ”
You say, "Do you see me sweating?" ”
Although you are wearing the same big cotton clothes as we are, you are not sweating at all.
You say, "Truly not afraid, it is like this." It's really not afraid. That's what really works. ”
(c)
You say, "Is there anyone else who can give me any other answer?" ”
No one answered.
Everybody is looking at you. You come up to me.
You walk up to S and ask, "You, do you have an answer?" S shook his head desperately.
You walk up to one of your classmates below and ask, "You?" The classmate shook his head desperately.
"You, you, you, you, you?" You walked all the way through the line with the students below. Every student shook their heads, not knowing what else to answer.
I watched as you walked past your classmates and towards me.
You walk up to me, and you point at me with a cardboard clip: "You, do you have an answer?" ”
I hesitated. I said, "Yes." ”
You stand down, and you say, "Tell me about it." ”
I said, "Although I am sweating constantly, there is one in my body and mind who is not afraid of heat, and like the guide, he has never sweated a drop." The wind comes and goes, it knows it well, but it never fluctuates. It is always calm and unwavering. ”
You look at me. You say, "That's a good answer." So, what's next? ”
I said, "The one who is calm and waveless is the master of the heart." Next, it's time for the real owner to shoot. ”
You look at me for a moment. You say, "Well, you shoot now." ”
I raise my gun, aim at the bull's-eye, and you walk up to me and stand on my side watching my movements.
I was about to pull the trigger when out of the corner of my eye I suddenly saw that you closed your eyes beside me and shook your body slightly.
There was a crisp sound, and the bullet in my hand had been fired.
When the shots rang out, I knew I had failed. I'm still in turmoil with the wind outside.
I put down my gun in shame.
You walked from my side to me. You take the gun out of my hand. You put it back on the gun rack.
You say, "It is useless to know in theory, but it is useless to know in the end." It's only useful if you actually do it. ”
You say, "In this world, there are all kinds of winds. You have to be observant. When the wind moves, you have to know that the wind is moving. ”
You say, "Don't give the gun to the one who can move." At no time do you give it a gun. ”
I'm looking at you. I nodded.
(iv)
During the break, S and D follow you.
They persistently asked: "Guidance, guidance, how can we not sweat in cotton clothes?" Tell us, right? ”
You say, "It's easy." When training, drain all the sweat you can't help but sweat and you won't sweat. ”
"But will sweat keep coming?" The two of them asked, confused.
You say, "Then keep training." ”

I'll help you get your guns back in storage and lock the cabinet door.
You feel cramps deep in your stomach again. You reach for the metal railing by the window. You grit your teeth and wait patiently for it to pass.
I looked at you in horror and I said, "Oh my God, you were really uncomfortable just now, and I thought you were testing me." ”
You can't help but say, "Now, still, it's testing you." ”
You say, "Wind." Here it is. ”
You say, "No, just follow it." ”
You say with difficulty, "We, all, don't, follow along." ”
You sit down in your chair, your face gray and your breathing heavy.
I look at your pain, my hands are shaking. I said incoherently, "You hold on for a while, I'll go to the office to help you get the medicine, and I'll call the team doctor to come and help you." ”
You say, "No." Want. Move. ”
You look at me, and you say, "I didn't say it, it's class." ”
You say, "Can you still see?" The one in the body and soul that doesn't hurt, doesn't feel sad. ”
You say, "Let it go." ”
Tears rolled in my eyes and I said, "But I can't watch you do nothing." ”
You say, "What can you do?" None of them. It is. Help me. ”

I looked at you and knelt down beside you.
It would have been nice if I had understood the principles and functions of chanting Buddha by then.
In that way, things will be much easier, and I will be able to continue to chant the Buddha as usual, and I will be able to easily stay still, and I will be able to leave "doing nothing" at the same time, and I will be able to help you most effectively.
However, I realized too late.
So, at that time, I could only stand there, completely helpless.
However, I can still recite the Buddha for us at that time. And that's what it did.
When I recite "Nam no Amitabha", that power can reach you, no matter what kind of face you are in or what time and space you are in. It is all over the void and all over the Dharma realm.
Its power, it took me so long, so long to believe, to understand, to know.
So, I will read it without doubt, with indomitable determination, with perseverance, with my whole life.
Every line here is what I'm reading.
(g)
- "Listen, Xinxin, next time, don't come and help me in a panic." Don't be so anxious to come and take care of me. When I'm in a lot of pain, please just look at me quietly from the other side. Please just watch me quietly and do nothing. Your ability to sit there with poise, peace of mind, unmoved, is the best help for me. “
- "But I can't just watch quietly. My heart will be turbulent, and it will cause an uproar. “
- "You can do it. You just watch it turbulent, watch it rise wildly, don't follow it, look at it, don't be moved by it. You are separated from the wild wave, and you don't necessarily have to fluctuate with it. That fluctuation is not you, that emotion is not you. The one who looks at the fluctuations and can perceive the changes in emotions is the one who is enlightened. ”
Although our bodies are still in this world, our minds do not necessarily have to be pulled and disturbed by this world. If the mind can always be at peace and ease, whether it is life and death, ups and downs, all external circumstances will lose their differences. ”
"Xinxin, if you don't have such a calm and calm heart, you can't help me, and you can't help me. You can only destroy yourself. You can't have the power to inject into others. ”
"Sit down. Look. Don't move. Don't exclude. Don't resist. Don't run away. Don't flinch. If you reject it, your heart will not be at peace. To relax, to accept, to let the heart relax, to open, to accommodate, to enjoy. “
- "I can't bear it. ”
- "But you have to hold back. Be patient. We work together. I endured the pain in my body. You hold back the pain in your heart. It's like training, we endure the sharp pain in our arms, and we endure all kinds of fluctuations in our hearts. We have to endure it, and we must hold on. ”
"What's the big deal about the pain. It was uncomfortable at the time, but it was just one of many feelings. It's just an ordinary kind of feeling. Accept it, and you'll be fine. Nothing spectacular. ”
- "Aren't you scared at all in your heart?" ”
- "Why be afraid? When I could feel the pain, I wasn't dead yet. If you are dead, you don't feel any pain. If it doesn't hurt, what's so scary? The only terrible thing about death is that we are afraid of death. If we are not afraid, there is nothing to be afraid of. ”
"Heart, don't be afraid. If you are afraid, it will be powerful. You are not afraid, it is like the lake in front of you, calm without waves, without wind and waves. ”
"If we don't have fear in our hearts, it's not terrible at all." (To be continued.) )
