"Don't monks be compassionate and should cultivate their self-cultivation? Why are they still so angry?" "Yes, didn't you say you didn't look at other people's faults? Such a small thing, as for it."

Why do some mages have bad tempers?

"I was scolded by the monk and was unhappy."

"Don't monks be compassionate, should they cultivate their body and nature? Why are they still so angry?"

"Yes, didn't you say you don't look at others' faults? Such a small thing, as for it."

"Why are you always staring at you, making a big deal?"

Many people know that there are many allusions and stories of Zen masters in history, which can be said to be a thunderbolt method, but it is the heart of the Bodhisattva who is enlightened by the disciple's aptitude. There is also a saying in Buddhism, "If you can't beat it or scold it, you are the good treasures of Buddhism."

Compassion is not to let go and cover up

Just as there are not only statues of Bodhisattvas in the temple, but also raging Arhats and Vajras. The hearts of monks are compassionate, but sometimes, the means can be strict.

For example, if someone is chatting about right and wrong in a temple, someone is playing and making noise in the hall, there is no stopping speech in the occasion of stopping speech. When you turn off your phone while meditation, you should answer the phone when you turn off your phone, or place the scriptures at will, and it is not in accordance with the law... I clearly see it, but do not point it out. This is not called tolerance at all, but sheltering and letting go.

Whether it is a gentle reminder or a severe scolding, it is all compassion. The original intention of being strict is to never commit the other party again in the future, rather than venting dissatisfaction. How do you view monks in

Put down the image preset in your heart!

also has an inherent concept that needs to be broken, that is, "Menciss should be..."

Monks just let go of their secular identity and life, join the monastic community, follow the Buddha's teachings, and practice as a group of people who have lived their lives.

Therefore, every monk you meet is an ordinary person who is practicing. Perhaps his cultivation is high and low, but he is not perfect.

"What should monks do" are just settings in people's concepts. Some are benchmarked against the level of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and some are required by the standards of great masters.

If you use your so-called standards to require every monk and every monk you meet, you will definitely be disappointed.

As a Buddhist disciple, I originally needed to break these self-sets, which is also a practice of letting go of self-attachment.

No explanation and don’t care about the heart

As a Buddhist disciple, you must admit that there are missing things in this world, admit that many causes and conditions in the past life are invisible in front of you, and you must also believe that your emotions and reason are actually all in yourself.

In this way, we will not seek fairness from the outside world and require others to have insight into everything, and there is nothing we can't stand or even need to endure.

If the mage really doesn't understand the actual situation and has a misunderstanding, you can also explain calmly or find an opportunity to clarify afterwards.

Of course, there are also Buddhist disciples who have better practice, and take this opportunity to practice forbearance without explanation and not to worry about it.

Seek fairness in everything and take care of it everywhere. If you have this mentality, you will not go far on the road of cultivation. Going back to the old saying, "Those who cannot be beaten and scolded are the good treasures of Buddhism."
