In life, we often defeat others, but it is hard to defeat ourselves. That is to say, our heart is like a runaway wild horse, going to the grassland where we shouldn't go and couldn't go. If my heart is lost, "I" will no longer exist and become a dead dead without a name.
So, how to make yourself have a positive, aggressive and optimistic heart? The wisest way is to set a moderate gate for the soul. With it, the flood of desire and non-profit will be blocked out of the heart, and then it will become quiet. Only when we calm down can we have correct thoughts and wishes, and know what to do and what not to do.
Without restraint, the heart is always filled with things that shouldn't be filled, such as jealousy, greed, hatred and so on, which are the seeds of bad luck. Li Ao, the imperial physician of Qin, knew that his medical skill was not as good as Bian Que, so he sent someone to kill him. But up to now, people all over the world who talk about pulse diagnosis still follow the theory and practice of Bian Que. In fact, everyone has the heart of jealousy. If Li Ao could turn jealousy into motivation and improve himself, then he might catch up with or even surpass others, thus truly changing his fate.
Without restraint, I often lost myself. Duke Xian of Jin wanted to borrow a way from Yu state to crusade against Yu state, so he suggested that Jin Xian should use the best Baoyu and Liangma to bribe the monarch of Yu state and ask him to borrow a way. Jin Xiangong said, "what if he accepts my gift and doesn't borrow the way ?" Sigh said, "if he doesn't borrow the way, he will not dare to accept our gifts ." Jin Xiangong said, "OK ." He let Xi Xi take two treasures to bribe Yu and borrow the way from him. Seeing that Liangma and Baoyu were so courteous, Yu decided to borrow the way when he was so happy. Gong Zhiqi persuaded the emperor, "You can't agree. Yu Youyu is just like the wooden protection on both sides of the car. The wooden protection depends on the car, and the car also depends on the wooden protection. The geographical situation of Yu and Yu is just like this. If you borrow the way to them, then the state of Yan will perish in the morning, and the state of Yu will perish in the evening ......" Yu Gong didn't listen and insisted on borrowing the way to Jin state. He won the battle against the state of Yan and defeated the state of Yu three years later ...... It can be seen that Yu Gong didn't set the control gate in his heart, so he lost himself and the country.
Shallow water and big fish do not swim, shallow soil and big wood do not grow. If we want to be moderate appropriately, we can't do without high self-cultivation, profound knowledge and good habits. Only with these conditions can we set this gate for our soul well, let it stop desire, greed, ugliness, evil ...... Let the heart be filled with the true feelings of the world and the beauty of the world.
