I don't believe in Buddhism, but I like the wit and realm of Buddhism. If we regard the flowers collected by the Buddha as a mottled and complicated interpersonal network in front of us, and consider ourselves as Ye Jia, can we still smile at the knot that appears in front of us? As a teenager, emotions always rush in publicity and excitement, and everything you like closely follows the fierce momentum. This is called angular and aggressive. However, as I grew older, I gradually began to get away from these things. Occasionally I met a teenager with arrogant tone and radical words. I saw my past in a trance-these may change my mind tomorrow, and only teenagers can slowly realize the change of their promises in the long river of years-life is so interesting. What you laughed at at at first will return to yourself after a certain reincarnation. If a person is stubborn and sober, it will be extremely painful to find such an ending. Perhaps interpersonal relationships are always full of one trap after another, which makes us scarred and exhausted. But in the Buddha's view, it was much easier: he said nothing but smiled at the flowers.
How nice it is to laugh off the paradox and heavy feeling that one can't get rid of all one's life! As we all know, a person needs "essence, qi and spirit" to survive, in fact, it is the human spirit in the final analysis. In this world, most entanglements are details, and details are often contradictory and unsolvable. Some people are "serious" and want to be as clear as "chopped green onion mixed with tofu", and the result will get deeper and deeper. But when you get to the Buddha, you will know tolerance and "neglect". This kind of neglect teaches people to successfully bypass the deadlock and entanglement, and can easily do what they want and should do.
Laughing at flowers is an attitude, a realm, and actually a kind of accomplishment. An impetuous person will never smile at flowers anyway.
When I read the story of Buddha as a teenager, I thought that these people were really smart and could give people unexpected answers from the opposite side of the question. Later, with the growth of experience, I feel that this Buddha has also studied people's life thoroughly, knowing how to survive in interpersonal communication, how to resolve troubles, and how to go into battle lightly to avoid heavy weight and save strength, so as not to do useless work and fight unnecessary wars of attrition.
From "seeing mountains is mountains and water is water" to "seeing mountains is not mountains and water is not water", and then to "seeing mountains is mountains and water is water", the emphasis is on the changes in people's inner world. Nothing has changed here, but people's views have changed, your attitude has changed, and everything you see has changed.
Because of different attitudes, we see that some people are very rich and distressed; Some people are poor and enjoy themselves; Some people think that natural and man-made disasters are constant and everything is difficult. It is impossible to move. But he lives a quiet life.
In fact, whether friendship or love, friends or lovers, there are always many similarities. If you care too much about a harvest, you will lose a kind of beauty. If you care too much about a perfection, you will lack a kind of shock. Perhaps, as long as we can calmly face the excitement at the beginning and the sadness at the end, I believe that even in the moonless night, there will be the nightingale's Long song and the firefly's dance.
Being able to smile is actually the highest realm of life and life.
