If you are not indifferent, you have no ambition, why is you indifferent, if you are not quiet, you

This sentence is from Zhuge Liang's "Book of Rings" written to his son when he was 54 years old, it is not difficult to see that after half a century of tempering and ups and downs, it is not difficult for Kong Ming to realize the value of life and the truth of success, this may be the true meaning after the vicissitudes of life! But it is not difficult to see that since it can be written to a child who is only 8 years old, a child who has not experienced the changes of the world, it can be seen that it is not a profound and unspeakable statement. You ask me, why is it indifferent, indeed, like the ancients floating outside the world, living a life of "opening the noodle field, talking about wine and hemp" is unrealistic, a person can not be isolated from the world, then he will also be submerged by the world, so, the heart is calm for indifferent, the heart is set as indifferent, and the heart is far away from the hustle and bustle that is.

You ask me, why is it quiet, it is indeed difficult to change the nature of the mind, but "everyone is drunk and I am awake", even if others are frolicking and my heart is alone, it can be quiet, tranquility is not just an unattainable realm, sometimes, it is more like a thought, a kind of own decision and belief, nothing more.

A person is often restless because one, someone says something we don't like and two, we don't achieve the intended purpose.

If someone says something unpleasant, first think about whether you really have this aspect of it, and if you do, you will change it; If not, then it's good, that's his fault, then you should think about it, why did he say this, he just wants to be angry with you, then you should not hear it at this time, you are a gentleman, people will say how good you are, how bad he is, he is angry with you did not achieve his goal, but he himself is angry, you are a gentleman. He'll have to think about it when he's going to have another seizure in the future.

We don't achieve the expected goal, on the one hand, because the goal we set is too high, beyond our own ability, we can't do it, this is the common reason of most people, then you have to lower your goal; On the other hand, if you don't work hard enough, then you have to work hard, if you don't work hard, you will succeed, that is impossible, after your efforts are successful, you will naturally no longer feel irritable.

So that you are calm and quiet.

If you really want to be light, it is recommended to calm down and read more Zhuangzi.

Of course, *** is possible to lose the so-called"Enterprising"Heart.

Read more books, famous books, classical philosophy, think more about life, the world and the universe, and spend more time alone.

Do not pursue fame and fortune, live a simple and simple life, in order to show their interests; Do not pursue lively, the mood is peaceful and quiet, and the agitation can achieve lofty goals.

In modern parlance, it means that if you don't take the fame and fortune in front of you lightly, you won't have a clear ambition, and if you can't study calmly, you won't be able to achieve lofty goals.

There is no ambition without indifference, and there is no far-reaching ambition without tranquility. From the "Book of Commandments" written by Zhuge Liang when he was 54 years old to his 8-year-old son Tuan Yin Zhuge Zhan. It is written by Zhuge Liang.

This couplet reflects Zhuge Liang's philosophical thinking on life, believing that a person must be quiet and have few desires to have a clear ambition, and must be lonely and quiet to reach a far-reaching realm. The language is simple but profound, full of Taoist philosophy.

Obviously, "indifference" and "tranquility" are the necessary conditions for "ambition" and "far-reaching", and "ambition" and "zhiyuan" are the ultimate goals of "indifference" and "tranquility". Zhuge Liang emphasized in the "book": "To learn, you must be quiet, and you must learn; There is no way to learn without learning, and there is no way to learn without ambition.

That is to say, being determined to learn and studying quietly is the means and process; The goal is to cultivate knowledge and increase talents. So what is the purpose of growing talents? Friends who are familiar with China's historical bargaining know that the difference between the restoration advocated by Chinese intellectuals as an inner moral practice and the cultivation that religious scholars pay attention to is that they have a strong spirit of joining the WTO.

Zhuge Liang is no exception. The "Book of Commandments" talks about the knowledge of self-cultivation with a clear ultimate direction, that is, "receiving the world" - for the world, for the world! It is beneficial to the country and society.

This is the whole meaning of Zhuge Liang's "tranquility" and "Zhiyuan" to tell us!

Zhuge Liang "cultivated in Nanyang, lived in troubled times, and did not seek to reach the princes", which can be described as "indifferent" and "quiet". However, he was worried about the country and had the ambition to clarify the world, and made long-term unremitting efforts to this end, so that the eloquent Liu Bei had the feeling of "water as a fish"; helped Liu Bei and Sun Quan to resist Cao Cao and achieve the emperor's cause; Auxiliary Liu Chan worked hard, did his best, and died. From this, it is not difficult for us to see Zhuge Liang's dedication to "Zhiyuan" throughout his life.
