Just now, I was communicating with my friends. Although the high-speed train is not as fast as the plane, I have enough time to read books, see the scenery outside the window, think about some problems and recall some things. The time of the plane is too fragmented and time is too busy.
This little book is divided into seven volumes: fate, wealth, emotion, mind, sentiment, philosophy and practice. I have seen it many times, and I feel different every time. I will find something that I will never forget after reading it once and share it.
(a) there is no fate, only choice!
The present destiny is the sum of the past choices, and the future destiny lies in the present choices-such as your thoughts, words and actions. Filial piety and unfilial, resentment and loss of morality, dedication and demand ... it is these different choices that make up all kinds of destinies.
When we chat, the mantra is good luck and bad fate. I wonder if it's all my words and deeds.
Therefore, the Book of Changes said: "Good without accumulation is not enough to become famous, and evil without accumulation is not enough to destroy the body." Talk about fate and wealth.
(b) Wealth: gains and losses
It is said that the gain and loss of wealth is a kind of foreign minister, which stems from the inner gain and loss. There is an idea that I like very much. As long as there is no loss internally (moral loss), there will be no loss externally, and even if it is lost, it will be regained. If you can't get it internally, you will never get it externally. Even if you get it, you will lose it.
Hu Die effect has been heard a lot. The following explanation is close.
Can the phrase "Virtue" is a flower and "Virtue" is a butterfly? Where there is virtue, there is virtue "well sum up the Hu Die effect?
(3) What is "culture"
People often say: "This person has a high degree of education and that person has no degree." So what exactly is "culture"?
"Wen" refers to people's wisdom, morality, self-cultivation and personality. "Transformation" means transformation, assimilation and influence. Therefore, the original meaning of "culture" refers to individuals or groups with thoughts and wisdom. Will naturally light up the surroundings like a torch; Will be infected everywhere like the voice of heaven:
So culture and knowledge are very different! Not long ago, my girlfriend's aunt committed suicide by jumping off a building. She was the first woman admitted to Tsinghua from rural Jiangxi in 1980s. At present, I am a university teacher and started a travel company, but I jumped down because of depression. My girlfriend's mother cried and said, you can't read so many books in the countryside as a rural woman!
So it is better to turn "literature" into "culture", otherwise there will be many problems: trouble, pain and disaster. So "knowledge, culture, belief and consciousness" are all about finding yourself, knowing yourself and returning to yourself!
(4) Philosophical articles
We often hear the old saying "Man proposes, God disposes", which is the most classic, incisive, philosophical and enlightening sentence of China ancients. People usually only pay attention to the "people" who seek things, but can't think of the "day" of success. This is not surprising, because everyone can only see the "people" who seek things, but can't see the "days" of success. Does the "sky" here mean the sky that we can see when we look up? Still invisible, intangible and unpredictable "luck"?
Sages tell us that "heaven" is actually ourselves! It's just not who I am now, but who I used to be. It is our past behavior, words and thoughts, which is what the popular language now calls "virtue"!
Therefore, it is accurate to say that "what man seeks is what virtue achieves".
After reading the whole book, sum up and reflect on yourself, who you are responsible for, and who you are responsible for! Life is alive, live up to your heart, find yourself and be yourself! Let yourself say more soft words and do more good deeds! Don't waste this life!
