Tan Caigen's persuasion
3 1 knowledge is to look at the magic beads, and strength is to cut the magic sword.
The merits of conquering selfish desires include those who know it early and have difficulties, and those who know it deeply and cannot be ninjas. Gaizhi is a pearl shining with magic, and Li is a smart sword to fight magic. Both are indispensable.
Some people say that we can't overcome selfish desires because we didn't see through the harm of selfish desires early and our will was not firm enough. Some people say that although you can see through the harm of selfish desires, you don't have strong willpower, so you can't overcome selfish desires. Therefore, a person's wisdom and knowledge is a treasure to see through evil spirits, and willpower is a sword to defeat evil spirits. In order to overcome selfish desires, wisdom and willpower are indispensable.
Interpretation: Many times, people are not unaware of their many bad thoughts and behaviors, but unable to correct their shortcomings. This is because if they want to overcome their own selfish desires, they not only need to understand their harm, but more importantly, they must have strong willpower. In the face of temptation, if you can have strong willpower, you can overcome your inner desire. Many people know that smoking is bad, but they can't quit. The most important thing is the lack of strong willpower. As soon as the addiction comes up, they can't overcome the urge to smoke. There are many such things in life. Many people know that they have many bad habits, but they can never correct them.
Xiao Li is a cheerful and lively young man with a bright future. He has excellent academic performance, strong activity ability, wide communication and wide interests. He also has a good girlfriend. But Xiao Li has a very bad habit and likes gambling. At school, he just gambled with others, and he didn't have much money every time he won or lost. After graduation, he went to teach in a middle school. The school is built in the suburbs and closed management is implemented. Xiao Li couldn't gamble at school and put up with it for a semester. After the end of the semester, he found a friend who gambled with him before and gathered several people to gamble in the city. Xiao Li lost a lot of money in this gambling. My girlfriend was very angry when she learned about it, and said that she would forgive him this time and break up with him if he didn't get rid of the bad habit of gambling. Xiao Li swore to his girlfriend that he would never gamble again. From then on, Xiao Li never gambled again. Two years later, Xiao Li is going to buy a house and marry his girlfriend. Xiao Li is responsible for his own savings, his girlfriend's savings and some money borrowed from relatives on both sides. Xiao Li and his girlfriend saw several houses, and her girlfriend left first because she had to go to work. Xiao Li is still on summer vacation and continues to look at the house alone. At this moment, he suddenly met a friend who gambled with him before. The two chatted for a while, and a friend asked Xiao Li if he still wanted to play. Xiao Li finally couldn't help it and went gambling with his friends. He wanted to leave immediately after playing for one or two games, but he lost all the money to buy a house when he came out. His girlfriend insisted on breaking up with him, and Xiao Li regretted it. He hated himself for not being able to control himself at that time.
32 opinions are harmful to the heart, and cleverness hinders the road screen.
Original: greed does not harm the heart, but opinions are thieves who harm the heart; Voice may not be an obstacle, but intelligence is a barrier to obstacles.
Fame and desire may not kill the soul, but prejudice is the biggest pest that hurts the soul; A lewd and enjoyable life may not always hinder people from learning knowledge, but cleverness is the biggest obstacle for people to gain true knowledge.
Interpretation: the desire for fame and fortune and the indulgence of a happy life will greatly hinder people's learning and knowledge. However, compared with prejudice and cleverness, greed and pleasure are not as harmful to people as prejudice and cleverness. It can be seen that prejudice and cleverness are really a big obstacle to people's progress.
A young man entered a large company as a bankruptcy administrator. His workshop is in the basement, and he often takes the elevator to send documents upstairs, and he meets the executives who enter the elevator from the first floor.
The young man who advanced the elevator is standing next to the button. Although he has only been in the company for a month, he can immediately call out the surname and title of each officer and tell the floor of the officer's office very accurately.
But he doesn't press the button right away. He always confirms it first. For example, he asks, "Hello, Manager Wang, are you going to the seventh floor?"
The whole company soon noticed his memory and courtesy, and also mentioned "this young man" when chatting.
One day, the general manager got into the elevator, but the young man still said, "Hello, general manager, are you going to the eighth floor?"
"Don't you know my office is on the eighth floor? Why do you ask every time? " The general manager asked him.
The young man replied politely, "Yes! General manager, but I'm not sure you have to go back to your office. Maybe you're going to another floor, so I can't make my own decision. "
Before long, the young man became a special assistant to the general manager. The general manager put it well: "Good memory! It is not difficult to be polite and considerate. What is rare is that he can master the distinction, and smart people can be really smart if they are not smart. "
A few years later, the young man has taken the lead and become the manager of the business department.
This story tells us: don't be smart in everything, or you will lose more than you gain.
Therefore, in the process of learning knowledge, we need to get rid of prejudice and self-righteousness.
Live in righteousness with an open mind and reject material desires with a firm mind.
Original: the heart can't be empty, and emptiness is reason; The heart can't be fake, in fact, things don't want to enter.
Translation: One can only accept truth and knowledge with an open mind. A person's heart must be full, and a full heart can resist the temptation of all kinds of material desires.
Interpretation: Only an open-minded person can accept the truth and all kinds of knowledge. Zhang Yong in Song Dynasty was a very clever man. He didn't appoint anyone as his eyes and ears, but paid more attention to personal investigation and study. When something happens to him, he goes to see the people in person. Many things are carefully investigated and asked by many parties to understand the real situation. Zhang Yong said, "Everyone else has their own likes and dislikes, which will interfere with my hearing and vision. I meet people from all walks of life, not just listening to one side of the story. Gentlemen and villains all ask. In this way, you can understand the real situation of things. " To maintain this modest attitude is to accept the truth by not understanding the world from your own point of view. If everything is self-righteous, you can't accept others' opinions with an open mind, you can't investigate and study with an open mind, you can't get real knowledge and know the truth.
People should be open-minded and enrich their hearts. A person with nothing in his heart can't resist all kinds of temptations. When Xu Heng was a teenager, one day he and his companions passed by the river shade, and there were pear trees on the road, bearing many fruits. People in the same trade scrambled to climb to the pear tree to pick pears to eat. Only Xu Heng was unmoved and refused to pick pears to eat. His companion asked him, "Xu Heng, why don't you pick pears to eat?" Xu Heng replied: "It's not right to take it away if it's not your own." The companion said: "Now it is troubled times, and the owner of the pear tree has disappeared. This pear tree has no owner now. " Xu Heng replied: "The pear tree has no owner, but I have moral standards in my heart to judge right and wrong." It is because of his moral standards that Xu Heng can not pick pear trees. In life, there are many people who can forget the benefits and resist all kinds of temptations. This is because they all have their own concepts of right and wrong and moral standards. If you have a rich heart, you won't get lost in the ocean of desire.
Impatience leads to nothing, but peace of mind leads to happiness.
Original: People who are impetuous and thick-hearted accomplish nothing; People with peace of mind will be blessed by themselves.
People who are impatient and careless will never succeed; A calm and gentle person will naturally concentrate all kinds of blessings on him.
Interpretation: People who are impatient and careless often can't do anything well. If a student is careless and can't study patiently and seriously in his studies, he often can't get good grades. If a person is careless about his work and very impatient, he often can't finish his work well.
Tao Kan of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was careful and earnest. When he was appointed as the secretariat of Jingzhou, he ordered people to transport all the sawdust left in shipbuilding. Nobody understood his intention, but they did it anyway. After a while, when the snow cleared, the big steps of the government were wet and slippery. Tao Kan let people sprinkle sawdust on the steps, which will not hinder people from walking, but also make the steps less slippery and difficult to walk. Tao Kan asked people to put away all the cut bamboo roots for official use. After several years of accumulation, bamboo roots have piled up like mountains. Later, Constant Temperature led the troops to attack Houshu and assembled ships. These bamboo roots come in handy and are all used to make bamboo nails. Careful Tao Kan made seemingly wasteful things play an important role again.
Try to be indifferent and calm.
Original: Indifferent defense must be tried from a colorful stadium; I also explored calm exercises in different environments. Otherwise, the operation is uncertain and the application is not round, and I am worried that the top-grade Zen master will become a layman.
Indifferent ethical demands need to be tested by various temptations in busy and noisy places; Calm and comfortable ethical quality needs to be tested in a chaotic and noisy environment. Otherwise, people's integrity and ambition are still not firm and they can't handle things perfectly. I'm afraid that once they have the opportunity to give lectures at the altar, monks will become ordinary people.
Interpretation: A person's moral cultivation needs to be tested by practice. People who are calm at ordinary times and are not surprised by humiliation may encounter real great honor and humiliation and show different conduct from usual. A person who is usually brave may show cowardice in a really dangerous environment. Therefore, in order to cultivate excellent quality, it is best to stand the test of practice. Excellent quality that has been tested by practice is the real possession.
In the Five Dynasties, Zou Jingwen, the military officer of Xiangzhou, Hou Liang, was transferred to Xuzhou. Zou Jingwen has a servant who has extraordinary skills and some skills. The servant took advantage of his fists and left alone with his wife. When two people rode donkeys to a meadow, the servant proudly shouted, "I heard that there have always been many heroes in this place." Why didn't anyone come out to fight with me today? " As soon as his voice fell, several people jumped out of the grass and hugged him tightly. The two sides scuffled and the servant was at a loss. The robber suddenly pulled out a short knife and cut the servant's throat. The servant's wife stood by and saw all this. Far from being afraid, she shouted, "I'm so happy! Today I finally washed away all the shame. I finally got my revenge. " The robbers believed her words, so they didn't kill her, took her and her luggage, and drove away with two donkeys. After walking for dozens of miles, these robbers stopped at the edge of a village to have a rest. The servant's wife saw a bow and arrow, armor and other things at the door of a house. Someone in the government must be here, so she walked straight through the door. The robber thought she was looking for food, so he didn't suspect her. When the servant's wife saw the commander, she reported to the commander that her husband had been killed by a robber. Hearing this, the chief immediately sent someone to catch the robbers and tie them up. Later, these robbers were executed and the servant's wife returned to Xiangyang. She didn't remarry and went to the temple to become a nun. The servant's wife is in danger, but she can remain calm, improvise to save her life and avenge her husband at the same time. She is a truly brave woman.
