加工的苦樂

 語言有很強大的力量。

佛陀說的karma是身、口、意。

因為語言可以大量被複製和流傳,而導致資訊爆發(現在還講資訊爆發好像倒退20年,早就沒有人還在意資訊爆發了)。

所有不正的語言都源自不正的見。


當我說:你所看的所有影片、讀的所有文章,都是別人挑選過編輯過加工過的,有目的的。


更深切的事實是,我們的大腦的作用方式,本來就是把perception與既有的記憶分類結合,並把事物貼上標籤,以毫秒的速度把世界加工後呈現為feelings & mental formations


痛苦? 真的有痛苦嗎?


‘我’不過是一堆地水火風而已,地水火風有痛苦嗎?


‘有苦’是我們的想像、認知,‘有樂’也是我們的想像、認知。

那我們還費盡心思地創造了永樂的天堂、永苦的地獄。

Different Metaphors for Vanity in English and Chinese

 "Vanity" is a very interesting vocabulary. The first time I noticed this word was in a house renovation TV show (probably the Property Brothers). People in America love this kind of double vanities so much that they keep mentioning this word. But when I looked up "洗手台" ( the Chinese word of vanity) on the internet, the results were "washbasin, sink, hand basin…" None of them were what I had heard on the TV program. And they are also not vanities! Then I looked up the English word "vanity", and the Google Translator says it is "pride, arrogant and extravagant". None of them relate to the bathrooms! Finally I found a suitable explanation in the fifth description on the dictionary : a dressing table. It can refer to a dressing table without basins (but with a mirror) or one that settled in a bathroom like the picture. The interesting thing is, the origin of the word is "vain", which means something with empty inside, can not be ...

修行人

 「作為一名修行人,我們的目標並非賺很多錢,而是轉化自己內心的痛苦,活在平靜和幸福之中。當我們看到家人及朋友幸福,我們的幸福會成倍增長。這種收穫不需要等待十年,現在馬上就可以獲益。」 this is not the exact quote from a book from Thich Nhat Hanh, but I find it more resonate to me this way. This is like a reminder, a bell of mindfulness, calling me back to my awareness of the right path.  We all know what is the right thing to do and what is the right mindset to keep, but sometimes forgetfulness has us and we lose our direction.  The light of wisdom is always within ourselves like the moonshine in the sky. all we have to do is to stop and listen. With enough clarity, The road will show itself to us naturally. #Jill
