What is this practice of life cultivating?

#人生是一场什么样的修行 #

It is said that life is a practice, but what is this practice of life cultivating? Some people say that cultivating the mind makes people's hearts as calm as water. Some people say that what is cultivated is the mentality, so that the mentality is peaceful and open. Some people say that the cultivation is insight, so that the heart can accommodate the affairs of the world. Some people say that cultivation is fate, so that every encounter has a special meaning. Some people say that cultivation is life, because we all come only once. Some people say that to cultivate is to wait, because we have been waiting for a moment to cultivate one person all our lives. Some people say that cultivation is enlightenment, and they always want to see through everything in the world.

But what I want to tell you is that this practice of life is actually cultivating these four things:

First, life is to cultivate the eyesight

The first thing to cultivate in life is to see the light.

The eyes are the most critical thing for us to see the world and perceive the world. When we are young, we look at the world with curiosity, when we are young, we look at the world with doubt, when we are middle-aged, we look at the world with doubt, when we are in adulthood, we look at the world with calmness, and when we are old, we look at the world with indifference. The eye is the most deceitful to us, it always makes us believe that what we see is real, it always chooses to make what we see better, we add too much subjective things when we look at things, like the filters that are everywhere at the moment, everything, when the eyes are not clear, it is always distorted.

Life practice for a lifetime, so that we can calmly accept everything we see after seeing clearly, let our hearts be clear and transparent after seeing clearly, and let us have a clear and peaceful heart.

Second, life is to cultivate the ear clear

Life is to cultivate the ear clear.

When we were teenagers, we longed for all the beautiful sounds in the world, always with curiosity. When we are young, we are always affected by our inner voice and the noisy sounds of the outside world, and we always doubt whether what our ears hear is true. In middle age, we always center on ourselves, and see through the sounds we hear about the reality of the world and the back of people's hearts. When we are old, we know that all sounds have their origin and rhythm, and what we need is to distinguish the emotions in them, hear the true meaning of them, and make everything we hear more pleasant and smooth.

In the life practice of a lifetime, let us restore the sound we hear to pure, return to simplicity, and achieve the charm of music and the joy of life that can still be heard in the midst of noise.

Third, life is to cultivate the quiet of the mouth

The third cultivation in life is the silence of the mouth.

When children learn to speak, they always want to use all their vocabulary to express their true feelings in their hearts, chirping like birds in the trees. As teenagers, we learned to express our growing pains in our own language, but we had our own choice of whom to talk to. In our youth, we can still talk in front of our lovers and trusted people, because we always believe in the power of speaking. In middle age, we began to talk very little, and buried more things in our hearts, but there was always confusion in our hearts. In old age, we finally know that the tongue is not just used to speak, what to say, how to say, when to say, everything has become the ultimate of practice, less words do not mean no point of view, not to say does not mean that the heart does not understand, but to achieve the silence of the mouth.

It is easy for the mouth to learn to speak, but people have to spend their lives learning how to quiet their mouths, because it can also taste delicious food, and it can also mouth lotus flowers, rather than giving birth to endless troubles.

Fourth, life is self-cultivation

Ears are clear, eyes are clear, mouth is quiet, all because the ultimate practice of life is the self.

Don't look at incivility, don't listen to incivility, don't speak indecently. The ancients have long told us that life should manage our eyes, ears and mouth, and the ultimate goal is to manage our hearts. Life is originally simple, but it is burdened by too much external fame and money, so we see more utilitarian things, hear more languages of interest, speak more contention, but less pure emotion and simple warmth that people should have, and less happiness and happiness that people should have. When we return to simplicity, back to the heart, simplicity is happiness, those too many troubles are added by people for themselves, and those too many tiredness are self-seeking. The life of letting go and seeing through but still being able to laugh is easy and comfortable.

Life is too business those things outside the body, but less than the inner precipitation and clarity, and finally when looking at the self, clarifying the heart, when the mind is clear, it is the ultimate practice of life.

What life cultivates is the mentality, a kind of simplicity as calm as water, a kind of warmth like the sunshine, a kind of mind that embraces enjoyment, a calm and calm attitude, and a rare and confused wisdom.
