Liu Bei during the Three Kingdoms period, before his death, said to his son Liu Chan, "Don't take good as small, don't take evil as small." It means to tell Liu Chan not to despise small things, and small things also contain great righteousness. Small events breed big truths, and small problems contain great wisdom.

Whether or not they can accumulate virtue and do good deeds has nothing to do with wealth and poverty, but depends on the individual's heart. Like Zhang Shaofei, he would rather be hungry, but he can give moon cakes to the old beggar without hesitation.

And some people have a lot of money, but they are selfish and stingy, and they have become a miserly miser.

There are even some people, with a little money, they are crazy, squandering profligately, and showing off everywhere, which is actually a manifestation of spiritual poverty.

What's more, he lost some money, his heart hurt terribly, and if he lost his conscience, he was indifferent.

Plant melons and get melons, plant beans and get beans, don't want to do good, don't make excuses for yourself, say that you don't have the conditions.

In fact, good deeds and yin gong are all created by the heart, often people who have no money can accumulate great merits and great virtues, while rich people may not be able to benefit and accumulate virtues.

The Book of Changes says, "The house of goodness must have afterglow." If you accumulate virtue and do good deeds yourself, you will first have to celebrate your natural nature, and then your descendants will continue to enjoy the afterglow, and your inexhaustible descendants of Yin virtue will continue to enjoy it, how good it is!

Don't be like Qin Shi Huang, always want to leave an eternal foundation to your descendants, and as a result, your descendants will be even worse.

Compared with Zhang Shaofei's tears in his eyes when he was moved by Zhang Daocheng's high style and brightness, and said the words "Old man, since you are so sincere, the younger generation will follow your wishes, and after settling down with the old mother, you will go to Huangmei to seek the law, not to seek happiness for yourself, but to hope that all sentient beings will be free from suffering", Zhang Shaofei's inner words are so great! This is the development of bodhichitta and Mahayana mind.

Bodhichitta is the "enlightened mind" and the "altruistic and selfless mind."

You must know that the first thing to learn Buddhism is to start the heart, and the heart must be big and positive in order to get real results, the so-called "great amount of blessing is also great, the more greedy the more no".

If you don't have the right intentions and know that you are wrong, it will be very troublesome.

"Huayan Sutra" cloud, Buddhism is like water, like water, the cow drinks it into milk, the snake drinks it into poison, wisdom and learning to prove nirvana, foolishness increases life and death.

Knowing the difference between the slightest and the difference between the abyss.

That is to say, the Dharma can be learned by anyone, but the benefits are different for everyone, because the purpose is different, can the result be the same?

A true Buddhist must care about society, take the benefit of sentient beings as his own responsibility, improve himself in altruism, enhance his moral cultivation, and have the spirit of dedication not to seek happiness for himself, but to hope that sentient beings will be free from suffering.

There are many people who believe in Buddhism and think that worshipping the Buddha is respect, and listening to the scriptures and reciting the Buddha is practice, but they do not know how to benefit the society, which deviates from the original essence of Buddhism.

To learn Buddhism, we must be realistic, down-to-earth, and not in the air, because the Dharma is not separated from the worldly Dharma, and the practice of the Dharma in life is the real practice.

If we only know the Buddha's teachings, but do not promote the Buddha's spirit in the world and apply it to all sentient beings, then the Dharma will only stay at the level of knowledge, and will not play its due role, and will even be misunderstood as feudal superstition, negative and misanthropic, which is really wrong!

If Buddhism is negative or superstitious, it is absolutely wrongful.

Buddhism is the education of the Buddha, just like the education of Confucianism and Mencius, it is all education.

It's just that Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, and Shakyamuni Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, have different political statuses.

Confucius was able to become a great educator, and he was a blessing in disguise.

When he traveled around the world, he originally wanted to find a position and show his political ideals and ambitions.

If someone uses him as the prime minister of a vassal state, his greatest achievement is just like Zhou Gong, Guan Zhong, and Zhuge Liang.

But the princes didn't use him, they stayed away from him, and he returned to his hometown to run an education.

Confucius was the first principal of a private school in ancient times to recruit students.

Before him, all aspiring young people who wanted to learn culture had to take him as their teacher. Think about it, what can you learn from those bureaucrats who soak on the wine table all day long and eat more and occupy more?

Therefore, Confucius ran an education, and there were many talented people who came to him, both poor and rich; The rich have the big-name Zigong, and the poor have Yan Hui who eats dry food and drinks cold water.

No matter what his family background is or what his talent is, he accepts it from Confucius.

He was also very good at teaching students according to their aptitude, and he taught many subjects, so his students were all-round at that time, and he was in line with the educational idea of all-round development.

Among his students, there are many talents, and his teaching achievements have been revered by later generations as the master of all worlds and the most holy teacher, which he never dreamed of.

He wants to know that there is such a great good thing, why did he travel around the world and suffer that sin, how good it would be to start education early!

Confucius not only made a noble contribution to social security, ethics and morality in his educational thoughts, but also left us a gold mine in language arts.

From the opening sentence of the Analects, "It is fun to learn and learn", to the closed book "I don't know the words, I can't know the people", almost every paragraph and sentence is a wise saying. Confucianism is highly respected, and Buddhist theories make it impossible for Homo sapiens not to believe and admire.

Dr. Weller, the father of geometric mechanics in the world, once said that without the Buddhist law of cause and effect, the universe would only be chaotic. Such a noble and complete wisdom education - Buddhism, the eleventh young man cannot but introduce it to everyone, so as not to misunderstand the major ones.

Shakyamuni Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, is also a real historical figure. He was born in the sixth century B.C., the son of King Johan and Lady Maya of his mother, and in a country called Kabira. His life experience and the process of his cultivation are clearly recorded in Buddhist scriptures and historical books.

He was not a loser in officialdom, but a proud man, with a very noble political position, a prince of the kingdom of Kabira, a future king.

However, he gave up his throne and devoted himself to education, because only education can truly benefit the people and change customs.

Why is there still a crime rate among young people around the world? The main reason is that education is wrong, focusing only on the cultivation of knowledge and skills, and ignoring moral education. We all know that virtuous and talented children are superior products, virtuous and untalented are inferior products, virtuous and untalented are waste products, and virtuous and talented children are drugs, which is very terrible. To this end, the eleventh young joined the "Zen Six Ancestors Thought and Culture Research Association", aiming to pass on the moral demeanor of the ancient sages to thousands of households, and make all sentient beings happy and happy, such as not doing evil, eliminating evil and promoting good, and making everyone happy.

……

Shakyamuni Buddha's life was full of wisdom, and he founded Buddhism in order to help the world and benefit the people, so that people can "do no evil, do all good, and purify their will". As for what this sentence means, this is after Zhang Shaofei became Huizu, he has his own detailed discussion, and he will be detailed later.

Well, back to business. It is said that Zhang Shaofei took Zhang Daocheng's cargo ship back to the county seat of Qiu County, and it was already evening.

After Zhang Shaofei got off the boat and said goodbye to Zhang Daocheng, he went straight to Houliang Village.

Lu Huilan and her father have been much better since Zhang Shaofei left, and they can get up and move, as for walking, they still have to use crutches. The mountain herbs that Zhang Shaofei picked back before going to the West Sea had already run out.

When Zhang Shaofei appeared at the door of Lu Xueru, the whole family was really overjoyed, Lu Huilan and her mother were moved to greet her, her cloudy eyes were full of blurred tears, and her voice trembled a little and said, "Ah Fei, are you back......?"

Zhang Shaofei hurriedly stepped forward and said happily: "Auntie, I'm back, I'm back with Ganoderma lucidum, and my uncle's illness has been saved!" ”

With the support of Lu Huilan, Lu Xueru got up to greet Zhang Shaofei regardless of the inconvenience of walking, and his face that had experienced vicissitudes showed a smile that he had not seen in nearly half a year. For a long time, Lu Xueru raised his thumb and kept muttering: "Ah Fei, it's really ...... Is...... It's so hard for you.

……

Zhang Shaofei approached the door of the house and saw the light from the window, which was the light of the mother watching her son's return.

"Is Fei'er back?"

Zhang Shaofei hesitated for a moment before replying: "It's me, A-Niang." He pushed the door open. The mother sat on the futon in front of the Buddha shrine, half-squinting, revealing a worried face.

"Fei'er, did you go to the West Sea during this time and buy back Zhiling?" Wang Shaoxiang looked at Zhang Shaofei with concern, separated for a long time, when they met, the first sentence was not to ask him how and how he was along the way, but to be anxious to ask about buying Zhiling, which also reflected Wang Shaoxiang's feelings of "caring for others and benefiting others" from one side.

Zhang Shaofei stretched out his hand and wiped his sweat, and said happily: "A-Niang, I bought it, on the way back, I went to see Shang Lanmei and her father first, and put Zhiling at her house." ”

Wang Shaoxiang asked again: "How is Alain's father's injury recently?" Are you getting better? ”

"It's a lot better, I can already get out of bed and walk a few steps. It's just that the medicine I picked in the mountains last time I went into the mountains has been used up. Zhang Shaofei looked at Wang Shaoxiang and said.

"A-Niang first went to the kitchen to heat up those meals, these days, A-Niang has made your meals every day, wait for you to come back to eat, eat and wash through the hot water, rest early, and go into the mountains tomorrow to collect medicine." Wang Shaoxiang said as he went into the kitchen to heat up the meal.

Zhang Shaofei hurriedly said: "Auntie, I had a supper at Sister Alan's house, and I'm still full." ”

"Then you take a shower and rest early, it's already midnight. After Wang Shaoxiang finished speaking, he went into the bedroom to rest. ”

Zhang Shaofei originally wanted to meet Zhang Daocheng in the West Sea, hear the "Diamond Sutra" and become enlightened, get his silver to settle his mother, and then go north to Huangmei Dongchan Temple in Hubei Province to seek Buddhism and tell his mother. But seeing that it was late at night, Wang Shaoxiang went back to the bedroom......

After Zhang Shaofei took a shower, he sat on the sour branch chair on the left side of the hall, thinking: It's better not to tell A-Niang about this matter for the time being. One is that it's too late, and when I talk about it, if A-Niang is difficult to accept, then no one can have a good night's sleep, and if I talk about it in the future, I'm afraid it won't be easy to do; The second is that Lu Huilan's father is still waiting for him to collect medicine and cure his illness with hope, and he has invisibly become the support and spiritual pillar of Lu Huilan's family...... In case Lu Huilan's father found out and aggravated his illness, it would be tantamount to his own ......

Zhang Shaofei thought of this, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, a wave of sleepiness hit, he yawned twice, got up and stretched his waist, and when he returned to the room, he fell on the bed, and after a while, he fell asleep.
