In ancient Chinese culture,
Mencius
It's been said for a long time
The truth of the world.
Gently but firmly, he stated,
"The way is in you, and you are looking for far, and things are easy, but you are looking for difficulties. ”
These short words are like a beacon that illuminates those who have lost their way in the complex world.
The "Tao" mentioned by Mencius is not an unattainable way of cultivation, nor is it limited to the political law that governs the country and the world, but is one
In a broader sense, it is universal to all things
The Law of the People's Republic of China. It's as ubiquitous as air, yet it's often overlooked. This "Tao" is between you and me, in the depths of our hearts. However, we are often accustomed to looking outward, as if the truth only exists in distant places, but we ignore the purity and truth in our eyes.
As
The secret is not elsewhere, it is within yourself. This one
secret
It's that innate
Wisdom and conscience,
It is like a beacon that illuminates our path. However, we are often unable to see and feel it clearly because of all kinds of distractions and distractions.
And when we talk about how easy things are, Mencius also gives a great insight. He said
"Things are easy, but things are difficult. ”
Things in the world are simple and straightforward, but they are often complicated by ourselves. We tend to focus on the things that are difficult and ignore the simple ones. This kind of psychology may be a part of human nature, but it is also an obstacle that we need to overcome.
In this fast-paced, high-efficiency era, we should perhaps stop.
Return to the heart, return to simplicity.
When we learn to seek inward and cherish what is in front of us, we may be able to find the long-neglected "Tao". When we truly understand and practice these ideas of Mencius, we will be able to face this complex world with a more peaceful and wise mind.
