The temple master gave me a book, which is another kind of joy in life

#In the name of the book #Because of the needs of work, I went to the Tianming Temple in a certain place, the temple is small and remote, but the incense is very strong, and it is the place where the souls of people near the square circle are sustenance.

The temple abbot Yuanguang master was thirty or forty years old, rich in heroic and handsome, and it was said that he threw away the red dust and escaped into the empty door because of his family's sadness and sadness. He was dressed in a gown and looked fresh and flowing.

After the end of the affair, the master sent me a book, and the accompanying staff specially explained that it was the "Hundred Yu Sutra" that had been opened, and I respectfully took it, thinking that it was a sutra book, it must be obscure and difficult to understand, and with my understanding of Buddhism, it was still in the state of not being introduced, so it was shelved.

The book looks very Buddha-like

It wasn't until I was working from home that I took the book apart on a leisurely afternoon. I was immediately fascinated: it turned out that it was not difficult to understand, oh, the content was ninety-eight metaphorical stories, each with original text, commentary, translation, commentary and many philosophical stories, five steps of style, I read easily and happily.

In the Southern Dynasty, 1500 years ago, the Indian monk Qiu Nabi (pi) arrived and lived in Nanjing Biliye Monastery for 20 years, translated this book and gathered disciples

Lecture, the original book was written by the master of Theodhynavid, Gu Tianzhu, the high monk. (This paragraph is a bit difficult to read, mainly the name of the Indian monk, you can try to read it several times)

The Hundred Yu Jing is also one of Mr. Lu Xun's favorite Buddhist scriptures, Lu Xun once said: "Taste the wealth of the fables of the Tianzhu Kingdom, such as the deep spring of the Great Forest, the art and literature of other countries, often under its influence... The Buddhist Tibetan Sutra is named after metaphors, but the Hundred Parables Sutra is the most coherent. Mr. Lu Xun greatly admired this book, spoke highly of it, and made an inscription for it. It can be seen that this book is really good and worth reading.

The first sentence of each parable says that "there were fools in the past", using the words and deeds of fools to describe humorous and ridiculous things, the stories in the book are short and vivid, the metaphors are clever, rich in philosophy, after reading life has some understanding, the soul is purified.

I looked very slowly, read slowly, slowly experienced, slowly chewed and digested, and slowly realized. Where you don't understand, turn back and re-read until you understand.

Now the "Fool's Collection of Cow's Milk Metaphor" is quite emotional, the original meaning: The Fool intends to collect the guests of the cow's milk banquet, and suffers from no place to store, so he feeds the cow calves separately, and wants to store the milk in the cow's belly. When it was time for the feast, the cows could no longer milk the milk.

For the fool's feast and drink milk, in fact, many of us are like him, wait, wait, wait for me to have time to see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. "Tomorrow after tomorrow, tomorrow is so much", when you have stumbled tomorrow, everything is not completed.

Therefore, do not wait to read, do filial piety as soon as possible, do good deeds in time, and hike can get up. Also, life also needs opportunities, when it comes, we must grasp it, do not wait.

Shakespeare said, "Don't miss the moment, when the machine sticks out a hairy head that you don't grasp, it will stick out a bald head when you turn around." ”

Grasp the opportunity, and make full use of the opportunity, only when the right thing is done at the right time, we will not regret it, we will not feel sorry for the fleeting opportunity.

Mr. Yang Dai has a sentence:

"Life is half fireworks, half joy. Life is half awake and half relieved. ”

Half of the qinghuan may be a cup of tea in the afternoon, a few pieces of new green after the rain, and a glass of wine in the evening. Of course, it is likely that I also saw one of the "Hundred Parables", which is also another kind of joy in life.
