From the end of last year to this year, several friends around me and I began to pay attention to how to "land", how to return to ordinary people (inner level), and learn to be ordinary people. Sometimes these feelings come from the real communication between two people, and sometimes they are seen through each other's words. However, similar vibration frequencies can be observed. When chatting with wing (the translator of this book), I mentioned that we both experienced a period of "spiritual escape" and were intoxicated in a world built with spiritual knowledge. If something goes wrong, hide in spiritual knowledge to calm it down. If you stay conscious at this time, you can see two levels of division. The most obvious thing is to limit the circle of friends to those who talk about spiritual practice. So after a period of addiction, I began to learn to pull away, let myself land, pay attention to food, clothing, housing and transportation, buy food and wash clothes. Open your eyes and see the real existence around you. Everyone's path to truth is different. As the author Kimberly 6 1 Snow said in the book, "My enlightenment did not happen when I meditated on a futon and had a serious meditation class ... My enlightenment happened when I was walking on the lawn in front of the main building of the meditation center." Therefore, those practices that let us focus on the present are just a reference. Si Nuo, who came to the meditation center to attend the training camp, accidentally became the chef of the center with his experience as a chef. So the experience of combining chef with practice began. She found that the kitchen provided her with such a "perfect training camp"-"The steaming and race against time in real life always requires us to live in the present, always leaving us on the edge of self-control and losing our usual self-defense." Just last summer, I had a quarrel with my family because of a real dilemma in my life, but it was the knot that blew up many years ago. Although I have reminded myself to put it down countless times before, it is obvious that it is still there and has not disappeared because I closed my eyes. If I can face it calmly and not let it rot over the years, I won't let myself lose an excellent opportunity to contact my family. Don't do anything against your will, and don't just "look" open-minded. Otherwise, the accumulated sludge will ferment quietly in the bottom of my heart. Thanks to the translator's vivid expression in words, we can see that Bai Xue has never set up a venue to describe her every experience, and her emotion and understanding can finally arouse the truth in our hearts. For example, she described the uncontrollable anger in the kitchen of the meditation center after the sense of control was broken. At first, she was anxious to deal with this emotion, but the result was repeated. Later, with the support of Lama Tashi, she realized, "I, observe my mind, no matter what you do." What you think has nothing to do with me. The important thing is not to do bad things, but to learn to help others. She described the observation process as "like cooking a complicated dish". Even if a person knows all the skills and prepares all the recipes and raw materials in the workshop, he still needs to complete the whole cooking process according to the correct procedure and be careful not to do anything wrong. You can't imagine a table of dishes at once, say it, and then a table of dishes will be fine. That's impossible. "Therefore, it is not easy to combine knowledge with practice. Practice in daily life is a foolish effort to "keep a correct state not only when you sit still, but also when you walk off the futon and even when you sleep." "I have recently encountered a job that I feel bored with, and I will show the habit of procrastination. When you realize that resistance, you can only face it silently. Even the self-denial behind this resistance can only be acceptance. How to just observe without exerting force sometimes falls into an abstract and unfeasible mystery, and the method of naming emotions mentioned in various explanations (the part of "naming the devil" in Jack Confield's "On the Road to the Mind" is explained in detail) is the most effective one. So, I named it "Yuanyuan" (just gossip entertainment _). Here we are, I said with a smile. Come in and sit down. You're welcome. We are old friends. The most touching passage in the book is "a cup of tea" at the end. Let me see the gentle power in the snow heart, which has always been spicy and refreshing. The question of intimacy is often the best mirror. After a wonderful encounter with the poet Leo 6 1 Stan, she said goodbye in mutual appreciation and cherish. Later, Si Nuo wrote: "What matters is love, not immersion. Love, in a broader sense. It's not something that is arrogant and arrogant, but our connection with the whole universe and its contents is expanding. "Most of us will eventually spend our lives practicing at home. The world and human feelings circulating around you will become the help of practice. So "staring at an empty house will not become a Buddha." "Let's keep our heads down and watch every step. Finally, share this beautiful poem in the book. I also want to thank wing. Only excellent translators can convey good works. Also remind yourself to study harder. Those who are dissatisfied with life or extremely confused in the next life may end up trapped in another life, turning into a big stone, a window sill or even a door, and they have to endure every time someone closes it hard. If I become a big stone, my love, please remember to sit next to me on a summer day and stare at the distant horses and mountains. If I become a window lattice, remember to look through me at the place where we often go, the grass where the brown geese strut. If I become a door, remember to go home through me, and I will ensure your safety. If I am a knotted and twisted rope, I have been tied and twisted for a long time, my love, please remember to untie me until I fly in the wind again like a fluttering hair.
