Buddha said that all sentient beings are suffering. It is really not easy for people to live in this world. Whether rich or poor, they have to face birth, old age, sickness and death, , seven emotions, six desires, .
Those who live a clear life can make happiness in suffering and live a happy life. This all comes from personal awakening, and the world seen by every awakened person will be different.
all say that seeing yourself, seeing the world, and seeing sentient beings, and a person’s greatest awakening lies in forgiving yourself and others.
1. Forgive yourself
Each of us is not perfect, not only imperfect, but also incomplete. This is the innate inferiority that is born with. Despite this, incompleteness gives us meaning to work hard. Only by forgiving our imperfection and forgiveing our weak self now can we have the courage to fight.
Azhe is my college classmate. After graduating from school, he went to a local factory for two years. With ambition, he hopes that he can have a successful career, but his life has not progressed as he imagined. Despite his hard work, he has always been an ordinary employee, struggling at the bottom of society.
He never gave up his efforts. Later, he quit his job in the factory and started a few businesses. When he met him last year, he said that his self-media company had already gotten on track and now has an annual income of about one million.
He said that the greatest benefit to him over the years is to forgive himself. There are too many setbacks on the road to struggle. When you encounter difficulties, you doubt yourself and refuse to forgive yourself. You are still weak. This mentality is easy to give up on yourself.
Indeed, if we cannot forgive ourselves when we fail, we will not have the courage to start over.
The good mentality should be that you failed today, or you did not achieve perfection. It doesn’t matter. You will be resurrected after a sleep, and you will continue to move forward with full fighting spirit. You are not afraid of how strong you are in difficulties, but you are afraid of attacking it again and again.
Forgive yourself for being poor, not talented or capable, it doesn’t matter, life is still growing, what we want is long-term victory, don’t care about the gains and losses of a city and a pool.
2. Forgive others
Forgive others requires a broad mind and narrow-minded person, and cannot forgive others.
Zhang Juzheng in the Ming Dynasty worked as a high-ranking official in the capital. Once, he received a letter from his home and his neighbors had a dispute over a wall.
He immediately replied: "The letter was just for a wall, so why not let him have three feet? Great Wall 0,000 miles away, and I don't see the past Qin Shihuang ."
When the family received his reply, they gave up three feet, and the neighbors also gave up three feet, which became a six-foot alley.
Many things in this world are not as black or white as imagined. Many times, when we forgive others, others will also show good intentions. In fact, forgiving others is also treating yourself kindly.
If a person wants to stay away from worries, don’t care about the harm others have caused to you. The most unprofitable thing is that others say the wrong thing and do the wrong thing, but we have to bear the pain.
Miyazaki said: Only when is strong in his heart can he apologize, but he must be stronger in order to forgive.
Don’t bother with the trivialities of life. The most important thing for us is to constantly cultivate ourselves and grow, so that we can have strong spiritual power in order to be invincible by all poisons and have the courage and strength to forgive others.
People are originally lonely because the existence of others makes us no longer lonely and makes our existence meaningful. Therefore, we should be more grateful to others rather than to do evil with others.
Forgive yourself, we can concentrate on meaningful things and not be afraid of failure, because we believe that although we are still weak now, as long as we don’t give up, we will always survive the darkness before dawn and usher in light.
Only by forgiving others can we see the beautiful side of this world, and troubles will quietly disappear in your forgiveness, allowing us to take easy steps and live a life without being tired.
Life is not easy, everyone should wake up, and a person’s greatest awakening is to forgive themselves and others.
