First, study hard and practice hard.
In the history of cultural development in China for nearly a hundred years, Hony Master Li Shutong is recognized as a generalist and a wizard in academic circles.
As a pioneer of the New Culture Movement in China, he first introduced western oil painting, piano and drama. He entered China and is famous for his expertise in calligraphy, poetry, painting, temperament, epigraphy and performing arts.
He was regarded as the 11th ancestor of Legalism by Buddhist disciples. He left the world with inexhaustible spiritual wealth, and his life was full of legends. He is a typical figure of China's magnificence and simplicity.
Master Zeng Zeng of Taixu: Teach initiation, abstinence, purity inside and outside, Bodhi.
Mr. Zhao Puchu's evaluation of the master's life is: "There are endless treasures in the eyes of the world, and a full moon shines on the world."
Such an all-rounder who knows everything about poetry, ci, drama, painting, calligraphy and seal cutting also needs to study hard and practice hard.
From the contact with Buddhism and the process of becoming a monk, we can see that he is a serious and thorough person, and he does everything unless he doesn't. In addition to reading the classics that monks must read, their study is also extensive and widely accepted.
In order to revitalize the law, we are not afraid of difficulties, study deeply, concentrate on discipline, write books, and practice. He has become a respected master of legalism in modern Buddhism, and is also a famous Buddhist monk at home and abroad.
Even if you are gifted, it will only make getting started easier. To reach the professional level, you must study hard and practice hard. Three minutes on stage, ten years off stage.
Success is inseparable from hard work and hard practice.
Second, bow to introspection
Ceng Zi said, I see myself three times a day.
Many years later, his seventieth grandson, Zeng Guofan, became a modern politician, strategist, philosopher, writer, founder and commander-in-chief of Xiang Army in China. He and Hu Linyi were called Zeng Hu, and Li Hongzhang, Zuo and Zhang Zhidong were called "four famous ministers in the late Qing Dynasty". The official to the governor of Liangjiang, the governor of Zhili, and the university student of Wuyingdian were awarded the first-class Yi, named.
I have read Zeng Guofan's letters before. He has four famous "daily lessons", the first one is "cautious independence".
Caution means sincerity, not deceiving yourself, and working hard in your own mind. He pointed out that "cautious independence" is
"The first thing in life is to be self-reliant, the first thing is to be happy, and the first thing is to keep good health."
Introspection in Shendu can help you wash away the dirt in your mind and make your self bright forever.
Third, the amount is large and generous.
Once upon a time, there was an old woman who cried every day, for sunny days and for rainy days.
Because the eldest daughter married an umbrella maker, if it was sunny, the umbrella would not be sold, so she cried.
Her second daughter married a clothing store. If it rains, the clothes will not move because of the rainy day, and she will cry.
Later, someone advised her that if it is sunny, your second daughter's clothes will sell well. You should think of being happy for her.
If it rains, your eldest daughter's umbrella will sell well. You should think of congratulating her.
As soon as the old woman thinks it makes sense, the crying woman becomes a laughing woman.
Behind the change from crying to laughing is the change of thinking.
This change is from being obsessed with narrow places to thinking wide places, and such people will become more and more generous.
A lot of happiness is naturally good.
Summary:
Learning is growing, while Tao is losing. The ability is constantly improving, the mind is getting brighter and brighter, and people are generous and natural blessings are getting bigger and bigger.
