To let go is not to be greedy for what you have, and not to hope for what you don't have.

Possession is not the premise of letting go, the same is not much, some people can be poor and happy, and some people can't even put down a needle; Letting go is not the inevitable result of owning, some people can put it down, and some people can't let it go.

The Buddha's revelations tell us that even having everything that the world seeks does not solve the fundamental problems of life.

"Getting" mainly depends on good fortune, and "letting go" requires wisdom. Blessing is easy to obtain, but wisdom is hard to find. Further, wisdom requires greater blessings, and the blessings of most people are insufficient.

Insecurity stems primarily from resistance to impermanence and attachment to the self. Without an awareness of impermanence and selflessness, the richer you are in life, the more you have, the more you want to keep and the more you are afraid of losing, and therefore the more insecure you will be.

In some places, when you see a beautiful mountain, most people will treat it with appreciation and love. In other places, the first thing that comes to most people's minds is how to make money out of it. The mainstream attitude of a region towards something is more influenced by factors such as social environment, value orientation, and education.

Secondly, the concept of beauty and ugliness is produced by the joint action of the external environment and people's taking, receiving, consciousness, etc., and the things themselves do not have the inherent nature of beauty or ugliness, otherwise "beautiful" things should be beautiful in the eyes of everyone, in fact, only people with similar habits will have the same view of beauty and ugliness. Since there is no "beauty" of things that exist independently and inherently apart from the activities of human consciousness, it is impossible to say whether beautiful things lead people to good or evil.

Turning to good or evil depends mainly on the severity of one's troubles. For example, some people feel that it is the beauty of others that gives rise to greed, and that they suffer because of greed. In fact, the beautiful person in his eyes may be useless in the eyes of others.

Do you say it's because the other person's beauty is causing him pain, or is his own troubles creating pain?

On the other hand, people who have a common view of beauty and ugliness, some of them want to appreciate and protect when they see beauty, and some want to possess and destroy, and they also see beauty, but their attitudes are very different.

You can't ask everyone to be ugly, the whole world is rotten and barren, so you can't be greedy and don't have bad thoughts. If you surrender your troubles, you can be at ease and good in **.

If your goal is not to liberate samsara from reincarnation, but to live a better life in humanity or the way of heaven, you should stop creating problems for the world by curing evil thoughts and evil deeds, and at the same time promote the progress of the world through good desires and positive behaviors.
