Chapter 577: Fart Nonsense
Nian Fu said: "We don't practice for the sake of cultivating immortals and attaining the Tao, but also to liberate others from cultivating, but it's just a high-sounding statement!" ”
Xiao Tianshu said: "In order to free others to practice, you are thinking about who gets it first, it is also very difficult, sometimes the fulfillment of others is equivalent to the fulfillment of yourself, if you always do not want to fulfill others, then you yourself do not want to fulfill yourself, this is the trade-off of life, sometimes it is very difficult, but it is indeed the truth......
Nian Fu smiled: "Hehe, that's right, but I'm tired of thinking too much all my life, I'm thinking about mixing myself every day, just live a good life, I think about the rest a lot, I'm still tired and panicked, and it's not clear what happened in the end of crying, you see the current situation of our family is that I am an only child, and everyone else in the family is dead, what else can I do?" No matter how much I think about it, it's a good thing, and if I do everything, I don't necessarily have good results! ”
Xiao Tianshu said: "But if you don't do good deeds, you can't do it, wouldn't that accelerate the ruin of your family!" ”
Nian Fu said: "Then you said that the ancestor of our family has been helping others to subdue demons and eliminate demons until now, and has done all the good things in one day, why haven't you received good retribution?" On the contrary, it ruined our family, and it seems that all of them are extinct, this God is not long-eyed at all, how can he believe that good deeds can achieve good rewards? ”
Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "Cultivators live in the earthly world, grow in the earthly world, your roots are here, the tree will not live without roots, and the water will dry up without a source." Cultivators should hone their state of mind in the world, and cultivators should not change their attitudes towards work, family, and friends around them because of their own practice. If we can't even take care of our family work, how can we be liberated? It's just that we have to learn to deal with things, learn to be more quiet than ordinary people, have more casual and free temperament, and influence the people around us with our own virtues. Being with the light and dust, being born into the world, and doing whatever you want, is a true cultivator. ”
Nian Fu smiled and said: "Hehe, what a heart of Pudu, we have Pudu others, who will Pudu us, Pudu Pudu and our family are gone......"
Xiao Tianshu said: "Only by setting things right and correctly understanding many things can we better understand others." Many beginners who study Taoism and Buddhism have too many misunderstandings when they get started, and this is because today's society is in the era of the end of the Dharma, and the fact that the Dharma is not passed on has led to the inability of many correct things to be transmitted. First of all, practice is not to say empty mouth to recite a few words of scriptures, burning incense at home is what kind of practice, sincerity is spiritual, practice is to liberate yourself and the world, chanting and confessing sins is a means, but it is more important to guide people to goodness, "the heart is always willing to save people's will, and there is heaven to protect my body" is to prove this truth. If a person does not know how to transform the people around him, does not know how to do more good deeds, and blindly kowtows and burns incense, I say that this kind of person will not be truly liberated until he dies. And don't force the people around you to believe because you believe something, each has its own life, you can talk to them at the right time, but don't force others, everyone has their own chances, not we can change it in a few words! Many people who believe in good faith do not know why they should worship God and Buddha, God and Buddha are enlightened and wise people, they are detached people, we bow to them out of respect for them, but also a spur to ourselves, but also a kind of piety to our own faith! And burning incense is to better communicate their hearts to the gods, most people say that the temple Taoist temple cheats money, in fact, everyone does not understand why to burn incense, burning incense is to send their wishes and prayers to the gods, if the heart can ignite their own heart incense, a stick of true incense channeling spirits! ”
Nian Fu said: "Anyway, I'm discouraged now!" ”
Xiao Tianshu said: "Some people say that burning incense to accumulate merit can eliminate sinful karma, but in fact, this statement is not true. What if a traitor burns incense and prays to escape from the police? Stumped this can be blessed? There are even more ignorant people, who burn incense and kowtow when they have something, usually do not accumulate merits, do not cultivate virtues, do these gods and Buddhas also bless? I think everyone understands the answer! Do you know why donating incense money will have merit, Liu Zhenren said in the customs clearance text: Practitioners get money, they can only keep a very small part, and the rest must be given to sentient beings as Dharma wealth, so the incense money we donate is meritorious, but now in the era of Taoist priests and non-Taoists, and monks and non-monks, how many people are like this? People who have practiced throughout the ages have been called saints, real people, supreme people, and sages, but these are inseparable from a person, so practitioners are also ordinary people, and it is natural to eat and sleep. When we learn the precepts in the world, the reason why we will restrict so many actions is because of the overall environment of the society, because the society is becoming more and more complex, and the people's hearts are no longer ancient, once we pursue fame, fortune and wealth, it is difficult to restrain ourselves, and we gradually sink, so Taoism only repented and warned the world in the text: Now that we have gained a human body, we will talk about Orthodoxy! In fact, there is no contradiction between learning Taoism and Buddhism and our pursuit of career, fame, fortune and money, but how many of us in the world understand: "A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way", "If you retire after success, the way of heaven is also", what about this truth? That's why we forbade it, and we gave rise to these many precepts. ”
Nian Fu said: "Hehe, I understand what you said, I understand all the big truths, but some things are not like this at all, that is, how hard you are working, it seems that your fate has been caught by God, so that you can't breathe at all, it is impossible for you to turn over, you are destined to go on this desperate road, what car to the mountain must have a road is fart nonsense!" ”
Xiao Tianshu said: "The road is simple, it is not as cumbersome as I said, the Tao gives birth to one, one life to two, two to three, and three to all things." We belong to all things, and our cultivation is to return to three to two, two to one, and one to the Tao, and we must go through this complicated and simple process. I hope that the good believers can reflect on themselves from time to time when they practice, correct themselves, be able to honor their parents, aspire to be good, cultivate virtue, no matter if they are monks at home, they have already attained the Tao, a hundred years of life, a hundred years of life, even if you have mountains of gold and silver, how much power and power you have in the world, you can't buy half a penny of life, so I sincerely pray that all those who practice will cultivate themselves and save others, and all sentient beings can be good, blessed with immeasurable heavenly dignity, compassion and compassion! ”
