If you are a monk, you don't need to face the pressure of work, family changes, for them, any fame, greed and desire should be let go, and everything can be let go. But for ordinary people, these are exactly the things you want to put but can't. You definitely need to improve your material conditions, just don't turn yourself into a machine controlled by things in the process of trying to make money, but use wisdom to control the desire for things, so that we are a flesh-and-blood, living person. Otherwise, this is an era of less self-restraint, if people have no religious beliefs, no sense of morality, do not honor their parents, and are not responsible for their children, and husbands and wives are irresponsible to each other, many people will become walking dead, and the whole world will be chaotic. So, if we look at a lot of things with this concept, we will find that we become a real thinking person. What is "thoughtful"? We know what the value of living in this world is, and we know that the freedom and blessings we have now are not easy to come by. In order for us to be more blessed in the future, we should work hard to accumulate now. As Buddha disciples, we must first learn to build devout faith in the Three Jewels of the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha that we believe in. If you have devout faith at all times and at any time, as long as you pray to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas with your heart and hope to get their blessings, you will definitely get it, and there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome. I'm afraid that we are half-convinced, and then pray with a skeptical heart. If we are not sincere enough, even if the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas really give it to us, we don't necessarily know. It's like when we go to worship the Buddha and go to Mount Wutai to make a pilgrimage to the Wuye Temple. Wuye Temple is the most crowded temple, and everyone buys a lot of incense. I think for most people: If the fifth master fulfills your wishes in the past few days, you take 100 yuan today to buy incense to worship the fifth master, and tomorrow the fifth master gives you 1,000 yuan or 10,000 yuan, will you be happy? Will you be satisfied? The fifth master thinks that you should be easily satisfied, because he has already given you tenfold or a hundredfold merit, but not everyone is satisfied, and do you think it was really given by him?

So we should always think: how much do we really give? How much to give up? How much do you get? What is the ratio of giving to receiving? Do you really deserve it? It's often a lot of people who say, "Oh, I've done so many things, why haven't I ever achieved results until now?" "Actually, a lot of times it's because we do too little, and what we get is probably the merit we have done in previous lives and the good fortune in this life.

Try to examine yourself as much as you can, and observe yourself: What are you doing now? What are you thinking? What are you talking about? Did you hurt anyone? Some people hurt others and don't know why. Someone said to me in a daze, "Master, I don't know why, it's just fine, and suddenly he ignores me." ”

Many people believe in Buddhism and only do a refuge ritual without really restraining themselves with Buddhist teachings. There are also people who use the name of Buddhists to swagger and deceive everywhere. What's even more odious is that some people advertise in the name of Buddhism and do things that hurt nature and reason. The one time I remember the most was when a person who was a so-called Buddhist disciple bought a diamond with someone who was worth about 50,000 yuan. People knew that he was studying Buddhism, and the boss also believed in Buddhism, so they asked him to take it back, but he didn't give the money for a long time. One day I happened to be at my boss's place, and they talked on the phone, and the boss said, "You owe the money for more than two years, it's time to pay it back!" He said in a loud voice, "Do you think I'm going to cheat you out of your money?" I've been a Buddhist for more than 20 years! "He has already deceived people, and he dares to speak to people in this tone! I want to give you advice: Don't think that if the other person is a Buddhist friend or a disciple of the Buddha, he will not deceive people, but he will deceive people a lot. Not only now, but you see that in the time of the Buddha, like Devadatta, who was a great disciple of the Buddha at that time, and finally went astray and deceived him. There have been many such cases since beginninglessness, so at any time, as Vajra brothers and sisters, it is of course very important for us to help each other, and we should help each other, but we should try to have as little money as possible, because if we don't handle it well, it will become a source of harm to each other. Most of the so-called unjust creditors are people who were once close to us.

If we really want to become a qualified Buddha disciple, then let's review the 37 recitations of the Buddha's actions together to observe and compare our own thoughts, words and deeds——

If you want to accumulate blessings and be good to the Buddhas, you should look at the family as a treasure, give up disgust to all sentient beings, and practice forbearance and forbearance.
