Seeing through the mortal world, it is merely a cycle of rise and fall; seeing through life, it is merely the impermanence of things; seeing through love, it is merely the reunion and separation. In essence, life is a matter of fate. Under the sky of destiny, let us stay faithful to sincerity and kindness, persist in hope and dreams, and treat life, living, and survival with seriousness.
In daily cultivation and learning, one of the most frequent words we encounter is “impermanence.” Impermanence refers to the changes and dynamics of life. It is precisely the impermanence of the world that gives life its truly meaningful revelations. All things, including emotions, exist only for a certain period and then change. In life, we should not let deeply rooted stubbornness bind us; instead, we should positively recognize the world and calmly accept impermanence.
No one can claim to be flawless, nor can anyone prove to be a permanent victor. However, there are certainly some people who can confidently tell the world that they are successful, that they are strong in life, uncrushable and unbreakable. Their shining points have always been dazzling, enviable to others. The reason for their confidence is that they hold hope in their hearts and that their “weapons of victory” are continuously refined through the tests of life. Their IQ and EQ may not be exceptionally high, but their mindset is certainly healthy. They can learn to counterattack swiftly through the storms of life.
For this very reason, life is worthy of being called a grand adventure. It hides the mysterious in the unknown, stimulating our curiosity; it ambushes opportunities and challenges amidst twists and turns, honing our sensitivity and decisiveness; it probes the warmth and coldness of human hearts in the mortal world, writing the precepts of love to be passed down; it witnesses the grandeur of great love in the vast universe, filling us with awe and gratitude.
A simple life is charming; a simple heart finds happiness; simplicity in learning is actually not simple.
If one does not engage in internal self-discipline, one is likely to suffer external discipline from others. If one is not accustomed to repentance, one must be accustomed to regret.
