How to hold your temper
【Xian’ersays so: “hold it for 10 minutes before going off.”】
Shifuasked Xian’er:“Why have you been taking a stopwatch with you?”
Xian’er didn’t dare to answer.
Shifu asked again: “Why do you keep looking at the stopwatch when I criticizeyou?”
Again, Xian’er didn’t dare to answer.
Shifu continued: “Don’t think that I don’t know if you keep quiet. You naughtykid, behave yourself !”
Below are quoted from my Shifu’s new book, Say Good Things—Master Xuecheng’sinsight on the path to speaking like a Buddha.
When you are about to lose your temper,
Tell yourself: “Hold it for 10 minutes.”
When you don’t have enough strength,
Try not to confront the enemy affliction head-on,
Avoiding its edge and blunting its drive.
如何才能让自己不发脾气
【贤二如是说:十分钟后再发脾气】
师父问贤二,你最近干吗老是带着块秒表?
贤二不敢回答。
师父又问,为什么我一批评你,你就看表?
贤二还是不敢回答。
师父说,你以为你不说我就不知道,
你这个熊孩子,反了你了。
以下来自我师父的《好好说话》
脾气要爆发时,
告诉自己:“十分钟后再发脾气。”
力量不够时,
勿与烦恼大敌正面冲突,
避其锋芒、挫其锐气。
