12/31/2023 Suffering is the fastest way to enlightenment
Wang Yangming once said: "The more difficult it is, the more it is time to cultivate the mind." This sentence is deeply philosophical and expresses the relationship between suffering and spiritual practice in life. Before entering the WTO to practice, how do we know how many catties and taels we have? Suffering is the fastest way to become enlightened. It is both a fundamental attribute of our life and a fundamental characteristic of our life.
In life, we will always encounter various difficulties and challenges. Some people choose to escape, hoping to escape from the pain by escaping. However, this will only cost us more in the future. Because the total amount of suffering is constant, there will always be a day when suffering will come to an end. Only by accepting suffering and facing it bravely can we truly change it.
Those who truly see through this world are those who practice with suffering. They understand how much suffering they endure is how much success they deserve. When pain is felt, it means that happiness is coming. This is because only by experiencing pain and suffering can we cherish and appreciate the beauty and happiness in life even more.
When we repeatedly face all kinds of suffering, touching the depths of the soul, this is actually a sign of soul awakening. It means that our consciousness is accelerating, and we are constantly growing and improving. When we are able to face the gains and losses, and have a sense of self-sacrifice, we are already liberated. And when we can face life and death head-on, and have a spirit of seeing death as home, we have already realized it.
Suffering is not a stumbling block in our lives, but a catalyst for our practice, growth, and enlightenment. It is only by facing and accepting suffering with courage that we can truly grow and improve ourselves. Therefore, we should cherish every difficulty and challenge and see them as part of our life practice, so as to improve our spiritual state and make our life more fulfilling and meaningful.
"The more difficult it is, the more time it is to cultivate the mind!"
This sentence is really a wise saying, it is like a beacon that illuminates the tortuous road of our life.
Imagine how we know how strong we are if life is going well? It is those difficult moments that make us see ourselves clearly and also make us stronger.
There will always be ups and downs in life, and sometimes we will encounter some seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Some people choose to retreat in the face of difficulties and want to escape the pain. But you have to know that running away won't solve the problem, it will make it worse. Because difficulties and sufferings are like the scales of life, without which our lives would be out of balance. Only by facing it bravely can we truly overcome difficulties and make ourselves stronger.
Those who really see through life are the ones who have come through suffering. They understand that they have not experienced wind and rain, how can they see a rainbow? Every pain and suffering is a stepping stone to their success. When you're struggling with pain, don't forget, that's also a trailer for happiness. Because only by experiencing pain and suffering can we cherish and appreciate the beauty and happiness in life even more.
Every difficulty and challenge is a spark of soul awakening. They burn deep inside us, make us see ourselves clearly, and also make us understand the meaning of life. When we can calmly face the gains and losses and dare to take responsibility, we have been freed from the shackles of the soul. And when we can calmly face life and death, and see death as home, we have reached the highest state of life.
So, don't be afraid of difficulties and challenges. They are not stumbling blocks in life, but boosters of our growth. Cherish every hardship and treat it as a gift of life. Face them bravely and make your heart stronger and broader. In this way, your life will become more fulfilling and meaningful.
