Everyone has desires, but if there are too many desires, life will become exhausting. Everyone should learn to carry lightly, and even more should learn to be content and happy, because the boat of the heart cannot carry too many heavy loads.
"Cai Gen Tan" pointed out: "If you lose one point in life, you will be detached by one point." "In the journey of life, if you save a little bit, you can transcend the shackles of dust." Once transcendent, the spirit becomes ethereal. That is, people should not be too greedy. Hong Zicheng once said: "Reducing actual social interactions can avoid unnecessary disputes; reducing tongues can reduce blame; reducing judgment can reduce psychological burdens; reducing wisdom can preserve authenticity." Those who do not reduce and blindly increase can be described as cocooning themselves. ”
Lü Kun, the author of "Groaning Language", said: "Happiness is greater than no misfortune, and misfortune is greater than seeking blessing." "The greatest happiness is the absence of misfortune; the people who go around camp all day long are more unfortunate than anyone else.
Therefore, people must endure their own desires, and do not be driven and enslaved by desires. Once the mind is eroded by desire, it cannot transcend the red dust, but can only be swallowed up by desire. Only by reducing desire and pursuing truly meaningful life goals in reality can one live happily.
