Don’t care so much about others
When thinking only from one’s own perspective, one feels that nothing is going well.
This is because of our obsession with the self as if a hedgehog being against everything.
Try to put ourselves in others’ shoes and take a holistic perspective.
We will then be able to pull the thorn out of our mind and have a broader mindset.
When caring too much about others’ words and feelings, we are not really into how others feel.
We are however into how they see us.
We want to please others in order to gain our own satisfaction in return.
We care about our own happiness and sufferings by looking and exploring outwards.
Whereas Bodhisattvas care about happinessof all sentient beings, they do so by accumulating wisdom and blessings.
This is why we are miserable while they are joyful and at ease.
Make a daily vow: May my words bring happiness, hope and help to others.
Do not worry about losing face, failure, and how others see you.
别那么“在乎”别人
凡事只从自己的角度考虑,就很容易觉得事事不顺心,
“我执”膨胀,犹如一个刺猬般处处对立。
多代人着想,观顾大局,拔掉自己心里的刺,心境就会开阔很多。
对他人的言语和心情特别“在乎”,并不是真正关心他人的感受,
而是在意他人对自己的态度,希望取悦对方,换得自己的满足。
我们关注的焦点是自己的苦乐,实现的方式是向外追逐和索取;
菩萨则相反,心中想的是众生的苦乐,求取之道是提升自己的福慧,
所以我们苦不堪言,而菩萨喜乐自在。
每天发愿:让我说的话能够带给别人快乐,带给别人希望,
能够帮助到别人,不要总是害怕自己丢脸、失败,担心别人怎么看自己。
