Book language: 10 minutes a day, read a good book, click "Follow" on the right side of the article, and grow together
Hello everyone
Today, Lingyao will bring you a new book called Dialogue with God.
This is a book that my friend recommended to me, saying that it has given him a lot of support in the darkest hours and made him choose philosophy as his future direction.
I bought it out of curiosity, and spent a day and a night reading it, and found that although its name has religious overtones, it does not belong to any religion, but is the strength of many religious and philosophical schools, and has combined the results of natural science to propose a complete system of thought.
Through the study of this book, I found that many people's confusion is not caused by life itself, but by the constraints they give themselves.
These constraints, which originate from our past bad experiences, are like thorns that take root in our minds and make us rub shoulders with opportunities again and again.
Next, I will borrow some sentences from this book to take you together to break these shackles and say yes to life.

Feeling is the language of the soul.
If you want to know your truest views on certain things,
Then you should see how you feel about it.
It is sometimes difficult for people to discover their various feelings,
And it often happens that
It's harder to acknowledge these feelings.
Yet hidden in your deepest feelings,
But it is your highest truth.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">02.</h1>
Human thoughts and all human actions,
Either out of love or out of fear.
There are only two kinds of human motivations.
The others are just these two kinds of derivatives,
It's just a difference in form.
Fear of shrinking, closing, grabbing, running away, hiding, swallowing alone, hurting energy,
Love is the energy to expand, open, give, stay, open, share, heal.
Afraid of entanglement, love to let go. Fear of irritation, caress and soothe. Fear of attack, love to change.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">03.</h1>
Don't judge the karmic path that other people have taken,
Don't be jealous of success, don't pity failure,
For you do not know that in the balance of the soul,
What counts as success and what counts as failure.
Don't call it disaster or happiness when things happen,
Unless you have confirmed and witnessed its use.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">04.</h1>
Everything you've been through,
You created it all yourself.
You just have to stubbornly think,
These evil consequences are something else or someone else has done for you,
and deprived of the power to improve itself and change it,
Only when you say that this is what you do,
You have the energy to change.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">05.</h1>
There is only one reason to do anything,
Show the universe who you are.
There is only one reason not to do anything,
Because this incident no longer reveals your true identity.
It does not reflect you, it does not represent you.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">06.</h1>
Compared to changing others,
It's much easier to change yourself.
The first step to changing things,
It is to recognize and accept the fact that:
You chose to let it exist the way it is.
And then you have to find a way to create change.
Not because it's wrong,
It's because it can no longer accurately express who you are.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">07.</h1>
There is no pain in the event itself.
Suffering is the result of thinking. It is a mistake in thinking.
It comes from the misjudgment you make about things.
Judgment is often based on your past experience.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">08.</h1>
The process of life is perfect,
All life comes from its choices,
The choice of intervention is unreasonable,
Question it too.
And condemning it is particularly unreasonable.
It makes sense to observe it,
Then try to help the soul seek and make higher choices.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">09.</h1>
Your concept of right and wrong is just an idea.
They are thoughts that form and create your true identity and essence.
There is only one reason to change them,
That's when you feel unhappy about who you really are.
There is only one intention for change,
That's about making you happy with who you really are.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23">10.</h1>
Stick to your values,
As long as you experience them are useful to you.
However, look carefully,
These are the values that you defend with your thoughts, words, and actions.
Whether to substitute the best self in your heart into your experience space.
Then, check your values one by one.
Put them under public scrutiny.
Suppose you can be calm,
Tell the world without hesitation who you are,
What is your belief,
You are satisfied with yourself.
That's what's for today.
In the next article, Lingyao will continue to bring you a co-reading of the book "Dialogue with God".
Stay tuned
