Chapter 118 The 3th level of super alchemy
Alchemy, to a certain extent, is the dual cultivation of matter and spirit. In terms of external materials, Tao Gu Daxian has no dependence on anything and does not pursue a luxurious life. Instead, he achieves transcendence of the material world through inner peace and freedom. Spiritually, he constantly enriched his inner world by playing the piano and reading classics, and achieved transcendence of the spiritual world.
This kind of transcendence allows him to maintain inner peace and freedom in any environment. Although his life is simple, it is full of love for life and exploration of the world. His life literature may be what each of us needs to learn. In this age of material abundance but spiritual poverty, we need not only material satisfaction, but also a love of life and an exploration of the world. If you cannot rely on external objects and do not indulge in material things, you have reached the first level of super alchemy.
The second level of super alchemy: not trapped in the heart and not tired.
Prince Tianyi became prime minister in Beilun Kingdom, and Melaos wanted to see this good friend.
Someone hurriedly reported to Prince Tianyi, saying: "Melaos came to take your place."
Prince Tianyi was very panicked and wanted to stop Melaos, so he sent people to search the country for three days and three nights.
Unexpectedly, Melaos came to see him calmly and said:
"There is a bird in the south, and its name is the phoenix chick. This phoenix chick will not rest unless it is a sycamore tree, it will not eat unless it is a sycamore tree, and it will not drink unless it is a sweet spring spring. At this time, an owl was eating a rotten mouse with relish, and it happened to be The chicks flew overhead.
The owl hurriedly protected the rotten rat, looking up and saying: Scared! "
Melaos said to Prince Tianyi again: "Now do you also want to use your Beilun to "scare" me?
The prince of God's will is in a high position, but he is worried about gains and losses. He does not trust his close friends, eats without taste, and has trouble sleeping.
The human heart, this subtle and mysterious existence, is like a limited container with limited capacity, but it needs to carry countless emotions, memories and concepts. Just like a room filled with luxurious furniture and decorations, it is difficult to accommodate more space to enjoy the scenery outside the window.
Against the backdrop of gold tiles and red walls, people are often intoxicated with the prosperity and magnificence of the material world, forgetting the emptiness and loneliness in their hearts. They pursue fame, fortune, and power, but often ignore inner peace and tranquility. When the human heart is filled with fame and wealth, it can no longer accommodate other more precious things, such as love for life, concern for family, and understanding of oneself.
Fame and wealth are undoubtedly an important part of life, as they can bring material satisfaction and social recognition. However, when fame and fortune become the only pursuit of life, people will become narrow-minded and paranoid. They forget the value of physical and mental freedom and the finer things in life.
In this complicated world, people often live and worry about fame and fortune. They pursue fame and fortune, but often lose their inner peace and true happiness. Because the human heart is limited and cannot accommodate fame, wealth and inner peace at the same time.
In order to find the long-lost peace and happiness, people need to learn to let go. Let go of the excessive pursuit of fame and fortune, and let go of the obsessions and worries in your heart. Only in this way can the human heart regain space to accommodate the beauty and touching things in life.
Therefore, let us cherish every moment of our state of mind, and let the limited container of the heart hold more love and care, as well as gratitude and appreciation for the world. Only in this way can we truly live out ourselves and live out our inner peace and tranquility. Luo Xiaofei said in the "Collection of Poems of Guangming University Hall": "Who would be tired of false fame? I have no intention of worldly affairs."
In "The History of Iron and Steel", Star won a big prize at the age of fifty and became rich overnight. His crazy pursuit of fame and fortune made him crazy with joy, which is both absurd and sad.
Even if fame and fortune are temporarily in your hands, they may not be your eternal foundation.
Liberating yourself from the shackles of desire and getting rid of the cage of fame and fortune is the second level of super alchemy.
The third level of super alchemy: not messing with others but not trapped.
Luo Xiaofei's wife Eliza died. Shakespeare went to express his condolences and saw Luo Xiaofei sitting on the ground with his legs spread loosely, while banging a pot and singing.
Shakespeare thought that Luo Xiaofei's dead wife lived with Luo Xiaofei all her life, and Luo Xiaofei not only did not grieve, but also banged the pot and sang, which was too much.
Luo Xiaofei recited a poem: "The world says I am not sad, but I laugh at the world and break my heart. If a person can still cry after death, I will shed countless tears."
Your mouth belongs to others, but your life is yours.
If you do something that goes against the public's principles, you will be criticized. If you always take into account other people's gossip, you will only be trapped in the rules and regulations and unable to extricate yourself.
When you are alive, you don't have to live like the general public. You have to live your own way and live according to your own wishes. Only in this way can your life be considered in vain.
Please remember: life is here, not elsewhere; in your heart, not in the eyes of others.
Instead of racking your brains to live your life the way others like, it is better to work hard to live your life the way you like.
Xilinta in "Luo Xiaofei Qiushui", even if the world praises him, he will not feel inspired, even if the world laughs at him, he will not feel depressed because of it, he clearly knows what to do and what not to do, and distinguishes honor and disgrace. , transcendent.
Have seen such a story.
Mona Lisa, a calligrapher and painter from Savannah, once wanted to paint a painting that everyone would love. He asked everyone to mark the shortcomings in the painting. As a result, every brush and ink was pointed out.
In the same painting, he asked everyone to mark the parts they were satisfied with. As a result, all the words that had been criticized were now replaced with marks of praise.
In this world, no painting can be loved by everyone, and no one can be praised by others forever. This is because people's aesthetics and values are diverse, and everyone has their own preferences and opinions. Trying to please everyone will only lead to burnout, and you may end up pleasing no one.
For those who are mature, they never judge others easily. This is because they understand that everyone is unique in their own way and that people have different experiences, backgrounds and values. Therefore, it is often unfair to evaluate others and may also bring unnecessary pressure and trouble to others.
In addition, mature people will not live in the evaluation of others. They understand that their value and significance are not determined by the praise or criticism of others, but are supported by their own hearts and beliefs. They will not change their principles and values because of the evaluation of others, but stick to their beliefs and pursue their goals.
In short, mature people know how to respect the differences of others, do not judge others easily, and stick to their own beliefs and pursuits. Instead of trying to please everyone, they focus on their own growth and development, creating a better future for themselves and others.
You are you, unique, not confused by others, the third level of super alchemy.
