Life insights from Taoist thought

Taoism emphasizes the word nature.

Naturally, in the words of the Buddhists, it would be to follow cause and effect, and everything will follow the circumstances.

Don't force anything, don't even have a big pursuit, but ask for three meals and one night every day, look at the sunrise and watch the sunrise and the sunset, and every breath is clean. Isn't there a saying that "if you ask for something, you will suffer, and if you have no desire, you will be strong"! Still in the words of Buddhism, this is called "emptiness", and there are not many people who can truly comprehend "emptiness".

Whether it is the Buddha or the Tao, the root of it is almost the same. It's just that Buddhism pays more attention to the "good" side, while Taoism is mostly neither good nor evil, and often takes the golden mean.

Mean, don't think that the word "mean" is depreciative, in fact, being mediocre is not a bad thing. What about doing nothing, what about becoming famous, or even heinous? No matter who you are, life is nothing more than a long and short dream.

When you wake up from a dream, it makes no difference to anyone.

Answer: Lao Tzu, one of the founders of Taoism, said: Taoism is natural. There is also the Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things.

In fact, the Tao in this is talking about the nature of the natural world. The former is saying that to attain the Tao is to conform to nature and use nature as the way.

The latter is actually the same meaning as the I Ching Taiji gives birth to two yi, two yi gives birth to four elephants, and four elephants give birth to gossip.

It refers to the fact that everything is made up of two things, called yin and yang, and the modern word can be understood as 01 binary.

Everyone knows that one of the cognitions of Taoism is the pursuit of immortality, the pursuit of Taoism, and the pursuit of becoming immortals.

According to my personal understanding, it should be: to pursue the mystery of the laws of nature and then use its laws, just as it is always easier to go with the flow than to go against the current, and to pursue the Tao is to pursue the mystery of the laws of nature.

The pursuit of becoming an immortal can actually be regarded from another angle as his understanding of the mystery of the Tao (natural law) of this world.

This is similar to the enlightened wisdom of Buddhism.

I think we should understand a doctrine and a religion with a non-superstitious and respectful attitude.

The superstitious part is nothing more than a cloak put on by later generations in order to better spread religion.

This is my personal understanding, pure manual typing, please other netizens do not plagiarize.

They're all copy-pasted, and I don't want to look for any information, so I'll tell you about my own experience.

Wu Wei, in fact, does not mean simply doing nothing, Taoism is actually emphasizing the role of nature, that is, when you conform to the laws of nature, do not artificially cross the process of nature, or force change. In fact, for example, if you fall in love, you find that this love is no longer interesting, and it has lost its taste, and you will not reluctantly maintain your feelings because of the moral constraints of society, but you can let go when you let go. However, the example I am talking about is not necessarily good, because everyone has their own situation, I just hope you can understand that what he means is not to force anything in your life to change because of social constraints or artificial hopes, because once you start to change something, you are violating its natural laws, and you are tantamount to pulling out the seedlings and helping them grow, can you understand?

Therefore, his guiding meaning for life is actually simple and simple, because if you realize it, it is not difficult to do it at all, and it is difficult to say that it is difficult, because if you can't jump out of your desire to control things or chaotic thoughts, you can't do it, and you will never be able to.

For example, a very young child wants to play in the sand next to him, and his mother suddenly says, "Stop playing, dirty!" Then, it is necessary to try to stop the child, in fact, at this time, it is to use his parental authority to suppress the child's natural nature of exploration, which will have a profound impact on his future, negative effects.

Then, when you can look at the whole world with an appreciative rather than a gain or loss, you will know the beauty of letting go, you don't want to get anything, you just live like this, experience every moment of life, don't worry about what you want to get, just live every moment according to nature, then you will find that on the contrary, you have all the beautiful things you need in your life, and you will feel that life is very happy and fulfilling, which is doing nothing and doing nothing.

Can you understand? It's hard to understand, and unless you reach this point one day, it's hard to make it clear to you, and I hope it will help you.

What's the use of asking for other people's perceptions? Turning in homework? It's like watching someone else eat, and when someone else is full, you're still hungry.

Furthermore, everyone's perception is at a different level of 'enlightenment', which level of 'enlightenment' do you recognize?

The highest 'enlightenment' of Taoism is the Tao Te Ching of Lao Tzu;The highest 'enlightenment' in Buddhism is the sutra of the Buddha (who has been preaching for 49 years). Everyone is studying, and learning is 'understanding'. For those who don't study, the classics are just a bunch of useless books.

The purpose of cultivation is to attain immortality and immortality. What is the Tao and how to attain the Tao is a question. First of all, what is the Word.

The Tao is the immaterial origin of the universe. And to obtain this total immaterial origin of the universe is called enlightenment. So let's talk about reality.

Don't read some messy Danjing Taoist books. The theories are generally from the I Ching, the Tao Te Ching, and the Reference Deed. It is difficult to distinguish which is true and which is false.

From the point of view of modern science, there is no other way to meditate. It is better to be static than to be still. This is the method for one.

Don't spend money to buy some messy Danjing Taoist books. Then let's talk about the true state that can be achieved by monasticism. Human life is made up of both physical and psychological components.

It's the body and the mind. Before their parents were born, they were physically and unconscious. So is the bodyless unconscious a lifeless state, not necessarily.

Buddhism is about emptiness, not nothingness. Simply put, the flesh is the body. Consciousness is a bodily function.

The Buddhist theory is the awakening of consciousness into an independent living being. The ontology of consciousness is disembodied and self-conscious, and it is independent of all mutual treatment. So is the borderless visible, no.

There is nothing in any realm. Buddhahood is not nothingness, it is emptiness. So how can it be proved that there is a void.

Buddhism is not a blind faith. You have to prove it yourself. Mental perception is not.

Neither physical sensations nor phenomena are either. Remember the key sentence. Sex is seen in the image.

When meditating, when one's body and mind are one with the heavens, the earth, and the universe, and melt into a bright and pure realm, that is the person who really has kung fu. Then, when we have reached the level of freedom of entry and exit, we can talk about how to enter the realm of monasticism and enlightenment from meditation. I'm not talking about an ethereal myth, but a real record of cultivation.

Everything in the universe is always changing. There is nothing constant in the ever-changing. No matter how advanced a life is, it has a nature of vision.

Even if you go beyond this space, there is no space. Even if there were, it didn't escape the circle of change. Only without space can it be eternal.

But if you don't have space, you don't have everything. The only thing that doesn't change is space. But if life becomes space, it is death.

Tao is the essence of space. What is the essence of space? This is not the true Word.

No kind of life is superlative. Whoever says it in the universe is not the absolute truth. The universe is infinite in space, and the wisdom of life is infinite.
