This man is a master of Longquan Temple, and a mathematical genius of Peking University, who graduated from a prestigious school but eventually stayed away from the world.
He has a highly educated future and infinite possibilities, but he sees through the red dust and insists on going to the temple to practice, no matter who stops him, it is useless, what happened to him?
Math genius
This high-achieving monk is named Liu Zhiyu, born in 1988, and his parents have always paid special attention to Liu Zhiyu's education.
In ordinary families, only reading is the way out for ordinary children, and Liu Zhiyu's family is no exception, Liu Zhiyu's parents often ask him to learn Xi, but fortunately, this child doesn't need them to worry too much.
Liu Zhiyu's family has always been very Xi, his parents have very stable jobs, and his father is a teacher, so Liu Zhiyu has not been very playful since he was a child.
When other children were still weaving flower baskets and jumping rubber bands, Liu Zhiyu was doing math problems, he himself has always been very interested in science, and his math scores are even better.
And since Yoo Ji-woo can remember, he will go to various competitions, win prizes and get hand cramps, and when he is in middle school, he can not only complete his original studies well, but also study higher-level books.
In the eyes of his classmates, he was a unique being, had little social interaction, only made friends with books and papers, and published his own papers in high school.
This is an unimaginable IQ, and Yoo Ji-woo studied the problem in high school, and even his teachers said that they couldn't do it.
Yoo Ji-woo began competing internationally when he was still a minor, and he was able to get the highest scores, and his results brought a lot of fame to his school.
With so many trophies and awards in his hands, he can't stop the light on him even in a prestigious university full of talents.
Even before graduation, Liu Zhiyu was qualified to enter the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and there is a full scholarship, and his IQ and talent must be able to make a lot of contributions to mathematics.
But just when his parents were proud of him and the people around him were happy for him, Liu Zhiyu made a decision to cut himself off.
Liu Zhiyu told his parents that he decided to go to the temple to become a monk and no longer have contact with the outside world, which was undoubtedly a big blow to the people around him.
Liu Zhiyu's family was also sad because of this incident, they couldn't imagine that the child who had been carefully raised for many years made such a decision, why did Liu Zhiyu himself have to become a monk and practice?
Faith collapsed
Liu Zhiyu is a person who loves to help people around him, he was the president of the club when he was in college, he often organized club activities, led students to do public welfare, and also went to Longquan Temple to volunteer.
Perhaps from this time onwards, Liu Zhiyu and the temple have been inseparable, so after that, he simply became the little master of Longquan Temple.
After Yoo Ji-woo confirmed his mind, he was very determined to let go of everything around him and cut off all contact with the outside world.
Before practicing, Liu Zhiyu wrote a letter to tell his parents that he was going to give up everything and become the "Master Xianyu" of Longquan Temple
The moment Liu Zhiyu's parents received the letter, they immediately set off to Longquan Temple to find their son to ask for clarification, but they didn't expect that they didn't even see Liu Zhiyu's face.
Liu Zhiyu insisted on not seeing anyone and concentrating on cultivation, his parents were heartbroken, and later he went home once to comfort his parents, although he went home but did not compromise, he was still determined to become a monk.
In fact, there is a reason why Liu Zhiyu is so insistent, people outside only see Liu Zhiyu is smart, and they can't see the pain behind him.
Liu Zhiyu once said that he never wanted to win any awards, which can bring face to his parents and glory to the school.
Maybe learning Xi mathematics later is not just what I like and want to study, but for the sake of this trophy and everyone's honor.
When Liu Zhiyu was in school, his eyes continued to deteriorate because of the long-term brushing of questions, and he was even close to blindness for a while, and when he went for treatment, he could no longer return to his original state.
Even so, Liu Zhiyu did not give up winning the award and did not give up doing the questions, of course, this may not be his own volition, even if his eyes are out of sight, Liu Zhiyu's mother will read the questions for him and let him practice Xi in his heart.
How depressing this should be, even if you can't see it, you still have to do the question, and there is no chance to relax, but getting these honors is not Liu Zhiyu's needs, but his parents and school.
After Liu Zhiyu went to college, his eyesight did not recover much, he couldn't see the blackboard clearly, he couldn't see the textbook in his hand clearly, and he could only rely on his classmates to dictate the content to him.
Not to mention that Liu Zhiyu is a genius, even if he is an ordinary person, relying on his classmates to tell the content of textbooks every day is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Later, although Liu Zhiyu got the opportunity to enroll in a prestigious foreign school, he resolutely didn't want it, this is not what he wants, and he may not want the light in exchange for his health.
Maybe everyone thinks that Liu Zhiyu can unlock his heart by going to the temple and get inner salvation and a moment of peace in this place, but in fact, the reality is not as Liu Zhiyu wants.
In the temple, Liu Zhiyu can't sit down and think about his life and open his heart, which is actually a job in the temple.
In the temple, it is not just necessary to knock on the wooden fish to worship the Buddha, Liu Zhiyu has to get up very early and live according to the rules.
In the past, because the temple was repairing the house, Yoo Ji-woo could only sleep for a while every day and then immediately get up to supervise the work of the workers, and he was even more intrigued in the temple than in school.
The children in the temple dormitory are not all young masters in the temple, and there are many problem teenagers who have been sent for reform, and Liu Zhiyu has been bullied a lot in the dormitory.
Not only did he bully Liu Zhiyu in the same bedroom, but even the abbot didn't let him go, because he was a high-achieving student, he was also assigned tasks in the temple.
The abbot, Venerable Xuecheng, asked Liu Zhiyu to sort out some Buddhist books for the temple and integrate them, but Liu Zhiyu, who could not see clearly with his own eyes, was actually not suitable for this kind of work.
But Liu Zhiyu gritted his teeth and did all this well, and in two years, he completed the "Proofreading of the Nanshan Legal Code", but in the end, the book was published and named the abbot.
The abbot not only took away Yoo Zhiyu's hard work for two years, but was also found by Yoo Ji-woo to have a lot of scandals, and Yoo Ji-woo, who was originally dedicated to Buddhism, collapsed after staying in the temple for a few years.
Find self-worth
Liu Zhiyu didn't want to stay in this kind of clean-looking but very dirty place anymore, and he left Longquan Temple, but he had a glimmer of hope in his heart.
Liu Zhiyu also looked for other temples, and he still believed that there was a pure land in this world where he could stay, but in the end he didn't find a suitable one for him.
At this time, Liu Zhiyu's parents have also seen it, and they also hope that Liu Zhiyu is happy, they are cultural and visionary, and they can see that Liu Zhiyu has some psychological problems that need to be solved.
Cultivation is the heart, not that small temple, as long as there is a heart wherever it is, it is practice, and they gave Liu Zhiyu a suggestion that he could learn about psychology.
Although psychology and Buddhism seem to be two categories, they are both to help people get out of pain, and the purpose is the same, if Liu Zhiyu studies psychology, he can not only help himself, but also help others.
When Yoo Zhiyu heard his parents' proposal, he was also enlightened, and he was unwilling to lose his faith and studied Buddhism and psychology together.
Yoo Ji-woo is a capable person who can do well in any field, and he found that this combination method is very good, so he began to restart his career.
After Liu Zhiyu researched it himself, he took the psychological counselor exam and created a team to specialize in psychological counseling services.
It's just that unlike ordinary psychological counseling, their team will use normal psychology mixed with Buddhism to enlighten human nature, and Liu Zhiyu's career has achieved good results.
Yoo Ji-woo began to find his true value, and after having expectations in his heart, he could not rely on the temple, and he finally decided to pursue a career in the world.
Yoo Ji-woo always shines, his talents are tapped, and later he leads a team into a company to do their own research.
The company attaches great importance to Liu Zhiyu and gave him a very high salary, he said that he does not want so much salary, all of them are used for the development of the company, and he hopes to open free channels to help more people.
epilogue
Liu Zhiyu has a successful career, and his relationship is not left behind, he posted the news of his feelings on the Internet at the end of 22, he has a girlfriend, and both of them are considered cultivators, and they can talk very well.
Not long ago, Liu Zhiyu publicly said that he had become a family, and getting married was also a kind of practice for them, and the two would have time to meditate together.
Many people spend their lives looking for themselves, and this concept is very vague, perhaps it is to overcome many difficulties and become what they want.
Liu Zhiyu has experienced so much, maybe the current things can finally make up for the pain in his heart and live happily.
