Heart is state

Life is a state of mind.

Buddha speaks of neither emptiness nor form, not the true form of vacuum.
The Buddha acknowledged that beings are bound to be dyed in the red dust.
But to cultivate colorless among the colored is a threshold. To be able to cross, but not to cross, is an unreasonable difference.

What is practiced in the temple is truth, but what is practiced down the mountain is Tao.
The so-called Mahayana and Hinayana are the difference between Buddhism, and Buddhism is boundless.
Mahayana talks about enlightenment, Hinayana talks about spiritual practice. Did not go out of the temple Zhongshanxia.
The two are actually complementary and indispensable.

Chance is a natural person. He is ignorant, does not practice, is born like this, has no desires and desires, and is detached from the world.
This state is a gift, and no one else can imitate it.
So Chance can't be a role model, because he can't learn, he can't learn.
Even if you learn something from him, you can't do it, you can't do it.

The world cannot all be like this, and it is impossible for all beings not to write or read, and only care about flowers and plants.
Then, try your luck to realize your life value.
He didn't even know what he was doing, and what value he was talking about.

But the day after tomorrow's cultivation is too difficult, can't afford to let go, cut the constant dust.
Life and death are fate, wealth is in heaven. Can you do it.
To be a mortal, there will always be gains and losses. The death of a loved one will be painful, a career failure will be annoying, and emotional dissatisfaction will be entangled.
In the eyes of the Buddha, it is useless to think rationally, pain, annoyance, and entanglement.
Even happiness, joy, and satisfaction are useless.
Because negative emotions can only make people frustrated, while positive emotions can make people frivolous.
So, whether you are sad or not, this simple point is enough for you to practice sadness, let alone other things.

Of course, the story is too dramatic, but Daniel is true.
Life is a state of mind. All beings are suffering, suffering in their hearts.
Didn't it mean that you should empty your heart and leave nothing behind, so that you won't become a zombie?
The Buddha said that when you let go, let go, and when you take it, it is the highest realm.
It's easy to talk about, but it's too difficult to do it.
If you can do it, just like Chance, you can walk on the water and become a Buddha and a god!

    It looks like a successful learning inspirational drama for stupid people, but it is actually a rather sharp political satire. Some paragraphs are really exciting, I am afraid that the truth will be exposed, but it will not, because the real stupidity It's not ignorance, it's that people who think they're stupid are smart, especially when this opinion comes from a political leader, groupthink follows suit, and the irony is that even people who know the truth start to think about themselves. Suspect.

    7.5/10. The title of being there directly points to a mechanism at the heart of the film: to put a person who deviates from the current society suddenly in an inopportune environment. The film is about linguistics and semiotics: the words "here" referenced to a gardener's work or a TV show are metaphorically interpreted to have different, grander meanings, and these languages ​​ultimately produce the gardener a Very absurd identity. This kind of dislocation is also the source of the comedy texture of the film, and it also creates a satire on American society and high-level politics. But to be honest, this film is mainly about a person who has no complete social function. It is really embarrassing to watch a lot of time? This embarrassment is concentrated in the original comedy scene, not only true I can't laugh, and I even dig a little with my toes on the floor...
