Chapter 374: Simple Heart

True Man Due sighed and could not start, saying, "It is not easy to practice. You can leave, I hope you won't do evil again." The demon god did not hesitate anymore and left in shame.

The water fairy was under very little impact, so she woke up quickly.

"Supreme Immortal, you returned to your position too timely, otherwise we would definitely be dead." Fairy Shui thanked sincerely.

"No need to thank me. How to be a qualified practitioner is better than me. The so-called "the great way is simple, and practice is in the heart." I just follow the teachings of the master."

"The great way is the simplest, the law of the development of all things in the world, the essence of Chinese culture, the Taoist philosophy, the great truth is extremely simple, so simple that it can be explained in one or two sentences. The so-called "true transmission of one sentence, false transmission of thousands of books". "The beginning of all things, the great way is simple, and the evolution of the complex" is exactly this simple truth."

As Due said, looking at Xiang Jian who was still unconscious, his mind flew hundreds of years ago.

As a registered disciple of the Taishang Laojun, he kept the teachings of this cheap master.

The Grand Master once said to him: The great way is simple, not only is it valued by practitioners, but it is also the realm of life in life. Practicing the Tao does not necessarily mean that you have no desires or demands.

First of all, craving for diligence itself is a desire. Or, if you take a step back, you hope to be able to put aside all kinds of dust and just savor the temporary tranquility. This is also a desire.

"Desire cannot be said to be good or bad. When it comes, it must learn to control its direction. Don't feel sorry for it when it goes. There is a kind of indifference of 'I am lucky to get it, and I am lucky to lose it'. Since everyone is in the Tao, they naturally have to work hard to prove the truth, but whether they can understand the mystery in the end is not very important. What is really important is that people have spent their whole lives pursuing the mystery of heaven and earth, trying to understand the reason why people are human."

The great way is simple, the great way is invisible, and the great way cannot be. This is a natural way of returning to simplicity and returning to the true level.

In this state of pure and inaction, selflessness, and unity of man and nature, if you do not seek to achieve success, your skills will naturally grow; if you do not seek to cure diseases, your body and mind will naturally adjust; if you do not seek to function, your functions will naturally appear; if you do not seek to have large and large circles, all the meridians will naturally be unobstructed, and the deepest truth is the simplest and most ordinary truth.

Turning the most complex into the simplest is the most clever one.

The greatest man appears noble just because of his simplicity.

"People often say, 'Learn for a year, the Tao is in front of you; learn Tao for two years, the Tao is around you; learn Tao for three years, the Tao is in the sky.' I didn't understand the meaning of this passage before, and I thought that this was because many people who study Tao had a retreat from the Tao, so the more they practiced, the further they were from the Tao. If I don't necessarily have a higher level of practice, I wouldn't even dare to call myself a practice when I asked myself."

"Because the more you learn, the more you feel the mysterious Tao, it is probably difficult to touch the edges after a lifetime of power. At this time, you truly understand the meaning of "Tao is in the sky", and then you have a layer of diligence, hoping that through hard work, you can get closer to Tao. The Tao is simple and life is simple. Enlightenment, it is simple and when it is simple, it is profound. From seeing a mountain as a mountain to seeing a mountain as a mountain, the realm is different, from simple to complex, and from complex to simple, it is sublimation."

"The meaning of life lies in simplicity. When a person practices to a certain level, he will be indifferent to some things and will be simple. You can understand others, but others may not necessarily understand you. In fact, people do not understand but agree with you. Being proficient in the heart and simplifying in the form."

"Tributing the soul is the ultimate problem for human beings. Simplicity is not only a kind of ultimate beauty, but also a kind of ability and a state of realm. If you see through it, you don't say it thoroughly, you have a high state; if you look vaguely, you have a heart that is clear; if you know that you don't know, you don't know it thoroughly, you have a thorough understanding; if you know that you can't see through the world, you have a thorough understanding, and if you don't understand it after understanding, it is rare to be confused and confused. Life in Taoism is light, but it cannot be said to be bitter."

"Just like boiled vegetables without any seasonings, you can taste the original flavor of vegetables at once. On days when there is nothing to do, you will inevitably ask yourself again and again, why do you leave the world and come to this Taoist temple? What is the meaning of burning incense and chanting scriptures every day? What is your final purpose? I can't figure it out after thinking about it."

"It's late at night, and I don't feel sleepy. Looking at the stars in the sky, I feel too small. I can only get in with a small problem and I can't get out for a few days. It's always the easiest time to feel retardant. I haven't retreated, but I stepped in again and again under the guidance of my master."

"The way is simple" is the wisdom of being a human being. When doing things, you need to turn a complex thing into simplicity, which requires wisdom. To return complicated things to simplicity, you must have wisdom, ability, and determination.

Wise people like the simplicity of the great way. Therefore, achievements and benefits should not be flocked to them; fame and wealth should not be burdened by them. Be indifferent to enlightenment and tranquility should lead to far-reaching results. We must be simple, do things steadily, and use wisdom to simplify difficulties.

To give up favors and disgraces for fame and fortune, pure as the innocent virginity of childhood, simple as the fertile soil cultivated by my fathers. Only those who are in a calm mood can see the leisurely "the setting sun shines on the ruins, and the cattle and sheep return home in the poor alley", listen to the sound of the nature of "the lotus wind sends the autumn air, and the bamboo dew drops the clear sound", and feel the emptiness of "not seeing people, but hearing the sound".

The way is simple, and life is also simple. Simplicity is not material poverty, but spiritual freedom; simplicity is not the emptiness of life, but the simplicity of the mind.

The highest truth is that the most simple way is often the simplest. People should learn to live simple, simple, act simple, let go of their own selfish thoughts, and go beyond the cage of their own desires, and truly forget their thoughts, forget their consciousness, and enter a state of forgetting oneself and forgetting things.

The complexity of life comes from confusion. Use "benevolence" to resist temptation and use "wisdom" to relieve confusion.

Not confused is the sign of life from complex to simple. Three thousand waters are weak, and only one can drink; all kinds of life must be one ending. Happy to forget worries, and simple to preserve the truth is the "simplest way" of life.

Practicing Taoism does not necessarily mean having no desires or desires.

First of all, craving for diligence itself is a desire. Or, if you take a step back, you hope to be able to put aside all kinds of dust and just savor the temporary tranquility. This is also a desire.

"Of course, it's still not enough to think about it. There are many people who have become immortals in the past dynasties, but there is no record that they have understood the ideals. Instead, they have done a lot with practical actions. This is the process of enlightenment."

"Looking back on the years of practice, my life is quiet, but my heart has not settled down with the ordinary days. This is the devil that people should cultivate. I have retardation and awakened again and again, and this process has been repeated over and over again."

"Sometimes I feel bitter, but sometimes I feel that this is a kind of progress in itself. Good and bad are naturally opposite. When saying good and bad are the same. When saying goodbye to your past, there will be a qualitative change like a cicada shell, which will give the true meaning of practice."

"Lu Dongbin once looked at the light of time in his dreams, and realized the impermanence of life when he woke up. If life was originally a big dream, probably practice is the process of trying to awaken himself."

"Because people's hearts are already obsessed with this world, they cannot see the truth, and they are even more lazy to think about the truth, so they become confused and do not understand their existence until they die. Therefore, we should thank those setbacks, detours and slackness. It is precisely because of some such stories that we inspire us to rethink the meaning of practice."

"What people are afraid of is not that they do not know how to make progress, but that they do not understand where to work. Master once said: When you feel that you are dedicated to the Tao, God will always bring down some demonic obstacles to test you."

"We are not afraid of tests, nor do we care about success or failure. How far we can go on this road is not the destiny of heaven, but the distance between me and my original intention. When the clouds clear and the fog dissipates, we can at least say with a clear conscience: We have walked the path of cultivation with our hearts."

"There is a story about 'the great way is simple, and the ordinary mind is the Tao': A practitioner asked the immortal: What did you do before you attain enlightenment? The immortal said: chopping wood, carrying water, cooking. The practitioner asked: What after you attain enlightenment? The immortal answered: chopping wood, carrying water, cooking. The practitioner asked: What is the enlightenment?"

"The immortal smiled: Before we reach the Tao, we are thinking about carrying water when we chop wood, and thinking about cooking when we carry water; after we reach the Tao, cutting wood is chopping wood, carrying water is carrying water, and cooking is cooking. In fact, the dialogue between the immortals and practitioners has enlightened us, and many of the highest and profound principles are contained in some extremely simple thoughts."

"The way is simple, life is simple. A thousand people have a thousand ways of living and life. After going through the years and life, they have many feelings in their hearts, let go of everything, everything is free; let go of the moment, and the current is free, many problems in life do not need to be kept in their hearts, and many burdens in life do not need to be carried on their shoulders."

"Only by letting go of one thought can you feel the joy of simple life and the pleasure of the flying heart. If you want to change something, you must first find yourself back."

"People have potential energy, but it is easy to be covered by habits, confused by time, and consumed by laziness. People should remember what should be remembered, forget what should be forgotten, change what can be changed, and accept what cannot be changed."

"We must face the past with the least regret, face the present with the least waste, and face the future with the most dreams. The way of heaven and earth is simple. Life is short, and everything is not too complicated, and a simple life will be simple. Once life begins, no matter how stage frightened, it will end."

"The biggest challenge in the process of growing up is that some sections of the road can only walk quietly by themselves, do things happily, and a simple life is a happy life. People must know how to be content and always be happy. All sorrow, pain, and all things that cannot be given up are just a transition in life. If people skip it, they can become more exciting."

"The best life is a simple life, a cup of tea, a table, a quiet place, a dull life, and no distractions."

"But a simple life requires all kinds of efforts, so that you can enjoy life with carefreeness and joy. Life is generally perfect, and what is imperfect is mentality. People who don't know how to appreciate will use pickiness to make everything incomplete."

"Be simple, be straightforward, grasp the right position, follow the circumstances, and accept reality calmly; do things simply, do not cause trouble, do not cause trouble, do not fear trouble, do not regret, do not complain, do not spare what you do."

"Life is a long confrontation. Some people laugh at the beginning, while others win at the end. Try to smile, try to look back, relax yourself, don't force, don't be listless, and don't be impetuous."

"Simple life, follow your heart, be at will, go with the flow, be the best self, be content, smile, be calm, no matter how hard or tired you are, as long as you keep moving forward, your own scenery will eventually appear. Whether life is easy depends on how you live."

"The situation lies in the state of mind. When the state of mind changes, the situation will also change. The more people want life, the more tense and complex it will become, the less easy it will be."

"On the contrary, the less people demand life, the easier it is to satisfy and be happy. The bright moon in the mountains is the master of the unpredictable, and the master is the master when you have leisure; the great way is simple, live in the present, and be contented can always be happy. Understand the state of quietness without any worries, the moon of the heart is bright, and the state of calmness is revealed; the mind is calm and free, and the mind is like water and smiling in life, which further reveals the charm of calmness."

"In life, dullness is the truest, silence is the most beautiful, and the lasting thing in life is not prosperity, but dullness, not excitement but joy. Keep a childlike heart, and when you are unhappy, tell your friends about your worries without any restraint. When you are happy, laugh unscrupulously. Perhaps all sorrows will flow away in the conversation, and all tension will be released in the laughter."

"Life like a child, live a simple life, live happily, keep the original mind alive, everything is beautiful."

"There is always a story in life that I want to tell but it is difficult to speak. It is gradually composed in my heart. This is how people yearn forever, and only those who have not obtained can be realized by losing can they feel precious. The so-called gains and losses, love, scenery, and stations are all slowly dissipated in the dust of time."

"Although it is difficult to let go of some things, but things that do not belong to you will eventually go far."

"A person's life is destined to experience a lot. On the road of the world, there are laughter, tears of grievance, ignorant persistence, confidence in success, and alertness of failure. Every experience is destined to be precious."

"The richness of life is due to the compassion of the heart, and the beauty of life is due to having a normal heart. Simple life makes people relaxed and happy, and simple ideas make people calm and peaceful. Because of simplicity, we can deeply understand the lightness of life, and because of simplicity, we can understand the tranquility of the soul."

After saying this, Due Ye stood up and said, "I am leaving and do what I should do. Whether you live or die, you must have confidence, believe in yourself and your friends."
