What is a mental health agent?

A philosopher took a group of his students around the world. Ten years later, they traveled all over the country and visited all the learned people. Now they are back, full of knowledge. Before entering the city, the philosopher sat down on a meadow in the suburbs and said to his students, "After ten years' travel, you have read a lot. Now your studies are coming to an end. Let's have the last lesson! "

The disciples sat around the philosopher, who asked, "Where are we sitting now?" The disciples answered, "Now we are sitting in the wilderness." The philosopher asked again, "What grows in the wilderness?" The disciples said, "The wilderness is full of weeds."

The philosopher said, "Yes, the wilderness is full of weeds. Now I want to know how to get rid of these weeds. " The disciples were very surprised. They didn't expect that the philosopher who has been exploring the mysteries of life asked such a simple question in the last lesson.

A disciple said first, "Teacher, a shovel is enough." The philosopher nodded.

Another disciple went on to say, "It's also a good idea to burn with fire." The philosopher smiled and motioned for the next one.

The third disciple said, "Sprinkling lime can get rid of all weeds."

Then the fourth disciple said, "Just mow the grass, remove the roots and dig it out."

When all the disciples had finished speaking, the philosopher stood up and said, "That's all for this lesson. When I go back, I will remove a weed in my own way and get together again after one year. "

A year later, they all came, but the place where they met was no longer overgrown with weeds, but became a crop field full of millet. Similarly, the only way to leave the soul undisturbed is to occupy it with virtue.

Virtue is a cup of fragrant tea, a cup of wine and a fragrant flower. Virtue can free the mind from pain. When the mind is occupied by virtue, troubles and disputes will lose their living space and desires will wither. Happiness is the fruit of virtue. There will be happiness if there is virtue.

The Chinese nation has many traditional virtues, such as helping others, saving money, caring for the poor and so on. Those who help others, give others happiness and give themselves happiness, help people in trouble to do something they can, and then look at others' smiling faces, aren't they very pleased? People who don't know how to pick up money are also happy. If they find something lost by others, if they keep it for themselves, they will be on tenterhooks all day, always worried about being recognized by others or caught by the news. This selfish desire will make them pay long-term or even lifelong pain. On the contrary, if you can find money, everyone will be happy. In short, only with virtue can we make our troubles out of reach and have a happy heart.

Su Dongpo said: "I can accompany the jade emperor at the top and the beggars at the bottom." See that there are no bad people in the world! " Virtue is a health agent for the soul, which makes people have a normal heart and love. With virtue, you will not compete with others for fame and gain, nor will you argue with others out of thin air for a little profit. Virtue itself is a kind of reward, which can bring people the noblest and truest happiness. On the grindstone of virtue, the blade of our love will be sharper.

In the modern society that emphasizes efficiency and utility, we should leave a space for virtue in our own minds, so that virtue can help us clear the rubbish in our minds. Material life cannot be rich, but the mind is poor.
