Reader comments
Only when you learn Taoism and become harmonious in your heart can you truly attain Taoism. After Zhaozhou became a well-known eminent monk from Zen Master Zhen, he still worked as a handyman, which shows that he indeed has a mentality that transcends ordinary people. The reason why the monk believed that he should not be a handyman was because he had prejudices in his heart. Once he had prejudices, it would become a psychological burden and a hindrance in thinking. Buddhism is the study of success. Confirm your confidence in "saving all sentient beings", establish the goal of "enlightenment and become a Buddha", and resolve to "work hard and never look back". Take hardship as practice, take ordination as homework, use famous teachers as guides, and use Buddhism as a ferry to follow your own path to success. Being unfamiliar with the inner world has led to countless setbacks in life. Not knowing oneself and not knowing the truth, which is also called ignorance, is a sin.
The Buddha said that all evil dharma is inherently false, and you should not be too inferior to yourself. All good dharma is also false, and you should not be too arrogant about yourself. A Buddhist saying helps the world understand that good and evil dharma are all false. Do not feel inferior to yourself, and do not be conceited or lose the true meaning of life. This book is composed of more than 300 Buddhist inspirational stories, with a total of eight chapters. Each short story uses the three-level structure of [Zen] - [Buddhist Story] - [Wisdom Instructions] to convey the true meaning of Buddhism in the story to readers. It also explains various situations in the world to readers from the perspective of Buddha, and uses Buddhist Zen concepts to analyze the precious true meaning of life. When reading this book, every reader can understand their own life experience from a sentence or a story in the book, and realize the true meaning of their own life. Then in Buddhism, you can learn Zen and cultivate your mind, so that you can deal with the ups and downs of the world calmly.
Buddhism is boundless and its principles are natural. The spirit of Buddhism in the scriptures requires a lot of manpower to interpret. Therefore, telling it in the form of a story is more suitable for the general public. The story behind each Zen saying is very appropriately chosen, easy to understand and lively and interesting. It straightforwardly explains the Buddhist thoughts and helps people understand the vast principles that Buddhism teaches people about how to behave in the world. The content is very rich and the Buddhist knowledge covered is also very broad. Not only about the philosophy of life, but also about personal practice. People who encounter confusion in life and find it difficult to calm down and read Buddhist scriptures can read these simple stories and get some inspiration and comfort from them.
Perhaps few people would combine Buddhism and inspiration, because in our common understanding, Buddhism, which emphasizes reincarnation and escapism, does not care about the glory and wealth of this life. They have already seen through the world of mortals and ignored the six realms. This is also an important reason for the rise of Buddhism in recent years. But from the stories included in this book, we can indeed feel that the attitude towards life advocated by Buddhism is of great significance in resolving the anxiety and group tension that pervades the whole society.
I benefited a lot from the Buddhist stories in this book, especially the story of "Normal Mind". It made me understand that in life, we should maintain a peaceful attitude, let nature take its course, and not be too demanding. Just like the Zen master in the story, he is not disturbed by the outside world and focuses on his inner practice. I like this calm and detached attitude, which allows people to find peace and happiness in a complicated world. This book is suitable for those seeking inner peace and wisdom.
People who are interested in Buddhism will find it really interesting and very interesting to read. This book has selected more than 300 classic Buddhist inspirational stories. Each story is a hint of coolness of enlightenment, each story is a ray of sunshine of wisdom, and each story is a clear spring in the mountain. Every time I read a story, I feel like I have new thoughts about life and the world. It's a very good book, not bad. I recommend it to everyone, especially those who are interested in Buddhism. They must read this book.
