There are two strokes of the herbone: one writes persistence, and the other writes down.
One day, we will not ask questions.
Only by not asking can there be no doubt;
Only by not arguing can we have no worries.
Don't ask about the past
Wang Yangming: "What is the benefit of thinking about the past and future events?" Rest assured. ”
What is the point of not being able to put down what has already passed?
Thinking like this can only lose the clear heart in vain.
Man can only live in the present day, and he only needs to do what is in front of him.
Most of the people who are obsessed with the past are people whose real situation is not smooth.
As the saying goes: a good man does not mention the courage of the year, and the wise man does not remember the past merits.
You may wish to reconcile with yourself and stop thinking about the gains and losses of the past.
Put the glory of the past, the good memories, all in yesterday.
Don't ask for results
Wang Yangming: "People must hone in things, and doing kung fu is beneficial." ”
Thinking too much about everything is often because not doing enough.
Things must always be done steadily to see the final result.
In this life, life is the head, death is the end, and the middle is all a process.
Try your best to live this life well, just look at the process, do not ask about the result.
It's better to fall gorgeously than to wander pointlessly.
Tagore once said, "The sky leaves no trace of a bird, and I have flown." ”
The river rushes and does not resist the east flow because it will never return.
Having such a self-confidence, a sense of calmness, is enough.
Don't ask people's hearts
Wang Yangming: "People's hearts are mixed with people and dangerous, and false ends are doomed." ”
As the saying goes: people's hearts are separated from their stomachs.
Guessing people's hearts is like guessing melons in the skin, it is difficult to know whether it is good or bad.
Some words are good to hear, don't take them seriously;
Some things are good to know, do not say broken;
Some people see it clearly, don't debunk it;
Some emotions follow fate, don't cling to it.
Treat your person well, and you will be doubly kind to him;
The person who snubbed you doesn't have to ask why.
No face
Wang Yangming: "No matter whether people are laughing, no matter whether people slander, no matter people's honor and disgrace, all foreign affairs can not move, and they will naturally have a place to be effective for a long time." ”
Chinese cares most about the "three bowls of noodles": human noodles, love noodles, and scenes.
The more bottomless a person is, the more he wants face.
Living too tired is also because I can't put down my face.
Face is for others to see, and life is reserved for oneself.
Smart people know how to save face in front of people, and they know how to live their own small lives.
They don't care about other people's eyes and know better what they want.
Don't argue
Wang Yangming: "When mortals' speech is happy, they can bear silence, when their spirit is developed, they can be condensed, and their anger and lust can be digested when they are victorious. ”
After quelling the rebellion of King Ning, more and more people slandered and discussed Wang Yangming in the court.
Wang Yangming didn't care.
He said: "I believe in my conscience.
Whether it is right or wrong is self-determined, even if people in the world come to slander me, it will not change anything. ”
Ugly words, too much to hear.
He is strong by him strong, and the breeze blows the mountain;
He crossed the river, and the bright moon shone on the river.
If you are quick to talk for a while, you can only win a temporary victory.
Cultivate an inclusive heart, and if you don't argue, the world can't compete with it.
Don't argue for the immediate gains
Wang Yangming was suppressed and excluded from the court.
But for him, none of this was a problem.
Next to Longgang Academy, he opened up a "West Garden" for himself.
"The square garden is not full of acres, and the vegetables are quite lined up."
Let go of the hoe and re-enlighten, and the old books are read in a long way.
To get drunk is to shop and forget to say goodbye to your neighbor. ”
Living here, rough tea and light meals, lecturing and seeking, the fun is endless.
Wealth, fame and fortune were not worth mentioning in his eyes like floating clouds.
Do not indulge in materialism and maintain a detached state of mind.
Cultivating our own souls in ordinary life, we can also live more wonderfully among all sentient beings.
Those who do not argue are more blessed than those who can fight and will fight.
Don't argue for a posthumous name
Wang Yangming: "Name is opposite to reality."
The pragmatic heart is one point heavier, and the heart of seeking fame is one point lighter.
If it is all pragmatic, there is no trace of fame.
If the pragmatic heart is like hunger for food, thirst for drink, where else is there time and energy? ”
Most people like to chase after false names, which is exactly what "performance desire" is doing.
Coveting the name after the body will inevitably do things that violate conscience.
The heavier the contention for fame, the more difficult it is to do things down-to-earth.
Wise people do not seek fame or utilitarianism, but only to be worthy of their conscience.
That's why the ancients said, "The supreme man has no self, the gods and men have no merit, and the saints have no name." ”
