Master Xing Yun "Between Success and Failure"
Young students want to be the first in the joint entrance examination, which is called success; Unfortunately, failure is called failure. Soldiers fight, annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop and return home in triumph, which is called victory; Unfortunately, the loss of territory and heavy casualties are called failures. That is, like today's police, it is successful to mop up illegal activities and arrest criminals; If the unsolved case is not solved and the grievances are not white, it is called failure
Some people attribute their success to fate, while others blame themselves for their failure. That is to say, even in the current election, the winner is attributed to the good feng shui of the ancestral graves, and the loser is attributed to the voters' lack of vision.
Success or failure does not lie in feng shui, fate, ghosts and gods, or even being destroyed by others; The condition of success lies in its own perfection.
Businessmen must have done market research, made money by doing business, have abundant capital and good karma; Soldiers who can go to the battlefield with honor must be well-trained, loyal and brave, and unite as one; Students who win the list champion must study hard through the cold window, make up their minds and make unremitting efforts.
In fact, the definition of success varies from person to person, and the so-called hero cannot be judged by success or failure. Throughout the ages, many failed heroes are actually real winners, such as Guan Yunchang, Yue Fei, Wen Tianxiang and Shi Kefa. They have always been loyal, sacrificed their lives for justice, but won eternal infamy. This is success. Shang and Zhou Dynasties, Xia Jie, although you are the king of a country, you have been cursed for being barren and heartless, so you seem to be the king, but you have failed! Even though Boyi and Shu Qi starved to death in shouyangshan, their noble personalities will live in people's hearts forever. Although they are hungry, they are also very successful.
Dr Hu Shizhi said, "If you want to harvest, you must sow first. Buddha said: "This is the cause, then the result. "There is no spring ploughing in Xia Geng, where is the autumn harvest and winter storage? Therefore, if a person succeeds, there must be reasons for success, and if he fails, there must be reasons for failure. " "I decide between success and failure, so I can't be careless!
Testimony: We only think about our own interests every day and seldom care about the welfare of others. Because we build ourselves on the national society, there are many disadvantages. However, many people encounter a little setback and refuse to review themselves first, so they blame others and even blame fate for playing tricks on themselves. I don't know if this is because of their own thoughts, actions and ulterior motives, so they often live in sadness and distress.
Master Liu Zu said: "Be kind and prosperous early; If you have a good heart and a bad life, you will not worry about food and clothing all your life; If your life is bad, your future may be difficult to guarantee; My heart and life are not good, and I am poor to old age. Zhou Li Jia was born stupid. Because of his repentance and hard practice, he finally won the Guo Tao. Devadatta was originally a prince, but because of selfishness, he broke the monk, harmed the Buddha, and finally suffered the consequences.
From the past, we know that no matter how advanced the technology is, we must also demand ourselves and improve ourselves in order to survive; We must reflect on ourselves and cultivate good deeds in order to move towards a better life.
