If the gas is fixed, the heart is fixed, and the heart is fixed. If this sentence is not the proverb of the ancients, it is the condensation of the wisdom of thousands of years of our China. Although the words are short, the meaning is deep.
What is Qi Concentration? It is not limited to breathing, but also to the peace of mind. There is a saying, "Wisdom comes from urgency", but there is also a saying, "Slow things are round". Everything has a rhythm, and if the qi is uncertain, it is like flowing water messing up the rules and losing the beauty of peace. And people who are calm do not panic when encountering things, and can deal with wind, frost, rain and snow calmly. As Su Dongpo, a Song man, said, "Suddenly come without being surprised, and add without anger for no reason." This is true and calm.
The heart is fixed, and things are round. The heart is the source of all things and the beginning of all things. If the mind is wavering, things will not be perfect. In life, how can everything go as planned? Determination is a kind of cultivation, a calmness to gains and losses, and an indifference to success or failure. Zhuge Liang once said: "If you are not indifferent, you will not have a clear ambition, and if you are not quiet, you will not be far-reaching." "When the mind is still, the road ahead will be clear.
Sometimes, we are like catkins in the wind, and sometimes we are like moths chasing meteors, blind and restless. However, we must know that true peace is not in the outside world, but in the heart. Only when the mind is calm, can the qi be fixed, and only when the heart is settled, can things be fulfilled.
Mencius once said: "I am good at nurturing my heroic spirit." This majestic spirit is inner peace and firmness. Only when we truly understand this can we truly achieve peace of mind and thus make things more complete.
Therefore, when you feel lost and hesitant, you might as well calm down and think about the sentence "If the qi is fixed, the heart is fixed, and the heart is fixed". Perhaps, under the guidance of this sentence, you can find that quiet place that belongs to you, and find that firmness and fulfillment that belongs to you.
