has a idiom when a blind man lights the lamp, which is useless. This idiom is understood differently, from different angles, and the results obtained are different.

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there was a monk named Shi Rong. He went out to beg for alms every day, walking at sunrise and returning at sunset.

When you return to the temple at night, you have to pass through a dark alley without light.

Because the alley is very narrow, when someone walks head-on, they often bump into each other. Shi Rong has had several experiences.

Sometimes in a hurry, both of them will be injured even if they collided.

One night, Shi Rong passed by this alley again and saw a man carrying a lantern not far ahead, just about to pass through the alley.

With this light, the dark alley suddenly became much brighter.

Shi Rong followed the man, intending to pass through this alley safely with the light emitted by the lanterns of the man in front of him.

At this time, Shi Rong heard someone passing by saying that the blind man in the neighboring village was a weird person. He could not see his eyes, and he would have to be on a lantern every night when he came out.

This sentence aroused Monk Shi Rong's curiosity about the people ahead. Shi Rong quickly stepped forward and caught up with the blind man who was a few steps ahead.

clasped his hands together and asked, donor, take the liberty to bother, are you really a blind man?

The blind man replied, "I was born without seeing any light, this blindness is born."

Shi Rong looked at the blind man's eyes and asked, "That's true, it's day and night. For you, there is no difference, why do you have to bring a lantern every day when you come out?"

blind man smiled and said, when he came out at night, it was pitch black everywhere. It had no effect on me, but for others, he would become like me and nothing could be seen.

So I picked up a lantern at night, and I didn’t want to be like others and me, and I couldn’t see anything.

Shi Rong put his hands together, bowed to the blind man and said, "Amitabha, the donor really has the same compassion as a Bodhisattva."

The blind man shook his head and replied, "Don't dare to take it or not, I do this for my own safety."

When you passed this alley, did you ever bump into someone head-on?

Shi Rong replied that there was a time, and the blind man said, "When I bring this lantern, I illuminate other people's paths and let others see me."

In this way, pedestrians will not be hit on the road.

Shi Rong sighed after hearing this, seeking Buddhism every day, but today I never thought that it was right next to me.

is just a simple task to give others a lot of convenience.

understand each other and do more for others, and others will do a lot for you and gain a lot.

Consider each other for others, and people will be very harmonious.

It is not a waste of logic to light a blind man.
