352. Desire is a kind of sensory game.
The most difficult part of cultivation is to calm down desires and quench them.
Desire is a peculiar thing. The more you can't get it, the more you want to be dissatisfied, the stronger your desire becomes.
The more you get, the more you keep satisfying, the desire will subside, and even disgusting, and you will be absolute.
My desires are waterlogged.
For example, if there is a delicacy that I like to eat, I will satisfy myself, and I will let go of it if I want to eat it, again and again, until I don't want to eat it.
Now, I don't have anything I particularly like, because, from liking to disgusting, I just need infinite satisfaction.
Human desire, which comes from the five senses + senses, can be said to be a game of the senses.
Sight, hearing, touch, taste, smell, feeling, what inspires you are your desires.
The senses are constantly changing.
What you think is amazing at first glance, you look at it day and night, and after a long time, you will get tired and turn a blind eye.
Other feelings, too, can be self-shattering.
When you eat something that is very enjoyable for the sense of taste, when you eat it non-stop, in large quantities, very quickly, your taste sense will be tired, it will feel unpalatable, and you won't want to eat it.
As for the lust that is most difficult for humans to overcome, how to surrender?
If you don't practice, it's better to get married, have a regular partner, and be legal and compliant;
If you practice, naturally, when you go up, the calmer your heart is, the weaker your lust will be, but there is no effect, it will have no effect on you at all.
353. It can be said that I have two lives.
The first life is from birth to enlightenment.
With a childish heart and ignorant self-confidence, I walked into this world and embraced every day of life, I was positive, optimistic, energetic, and upward, and as a result, I gained a lot of lessons and sorrows.
Human nature is like thorny thorns, everywhere, all the time, and I am defenseless, pierced and bruised all over my body.
The second life is after awakening, my original intention has not changed, and I once again walked into this world with a pure heart. This time, I used my wisdom to be flexible, as well as the strength of my heart, as a solid protective body, to walk the world.
I know the darkness, but I choose the light;
I know human nature, but I choose to be uncomplaining;
I know it's going to be difficult, but I'm going to move forward.
This time, I go deep into the world, but I am beyond human nature, I am standing next to you, but between us, there may be a galactic distance.
I am free, I come and go freely, and I am no longer bound by human nature and social rules, and this is the agility and freedom that enlightenment has brought me.
354. A truly optimistic person chooses to be optimistic after deeply experiencing the darkness of human nature.
The weak are always coerced by the mainstream to move forward, without self-assertion, and dare not express themselves authentically.
The strong dare to go their own way, and they don't care what others think or say.
The so-called rebellion and independence are all innovations and progress in human ideology on the premise that there is no lack of virtue and no violation of the law.
From the perspective of social progress, any kind of rule will not be permanent, and sooner or later it will have to be broken.
Therefore, we should always be flexible, follow the rules, abide by them, break the rules, and do not hesitate.
All good things should be preserved;
All imprisoned thoughts should be broken.
There is no savior at all, there is no God, and your energy is strong enough and stable enough to resist the worldly cage and the beating of society, then you are your own god.
