Arrogance leads to more desires, more desires lead to no virtue, and no embarrassment leads to more disasters.

A person's blessing will not come out of thin air, nor will it disappear out of thin air. Buddha said: secular people create karma with life and death; Monks go against life and death to get rid of karma, no matter how difficult the realm is, they are calm, feel at ease, and don't feel bitter. As the saying goes, "He who eats hard is the master."

There is a saying in ancient Confucianism: "Life is rich in food and clothing, and everyone has a destiny, which should be more than enough." Therefore, not being greedy can prolong life; Excessive luxury leads to exhaustion; I've never seen the head of a violent person. "

It means that people's blessings are limited. If they can save and not be greedy, they can prolong their lives. If they are too extravagant, they will die with all the blessings. I've never seen people who waste things casually live a long life.

Some people will say that the times are different now, and the material conditions are so good that things that are not used can be thrown away at any time, such as meals, paper and outdated clothes?

But if we think from the perspective of causality, wasting half a bowl of rice and a piece of paper is also a big sin. Even half a bowl of rice is hard to come by. From sowing, fertilization, irrigation, harvesting, hulling, transportation and finally cooking, how much labor effort and natural resources will be consumed before it can be delivered to your mouth for you to enjoy.

Cause and effect will not be wasted or confused at all. Whoever wastes wealth will lose his good luck. The ancients said: "It is not easy to think about a cup of tea and a meal; It's hard to have a little perseverance. "We can survive in this world and need so many tired parents and sentient beings. How can we be proud of waste!

Ancient Xuefeng Zen master and Qinshan Zen master washed their feet by the stream. Qinshan saw leaves floating in the water and said happily, "There must be Taoist priests in this mountain. We can visit them along the stream. "

Master Xuefeng replied, "Your eyes are very poor. How to distinguish people in the future? He is so blessed, why should he live in the mountains! "

After entering the mountain, the nameless monk.

According to historical records, there was a rich man who gave a big banquet at the full moon of his children, killing many fresh celebrations. Before that, a fortune teller told the child that he had a rich longevity. However, the child died at the age of two and a half. Rich people complain that fortune tellers are not as accurate as the legend says. Later, I consulted a Buddhist monk, and the monk told him, "If you kill a life, you will be blessed when you die."

Today's children know pleasure from an early age, even their parents' hard-earned money. Clothes, shoes and home appliances should have brands, and pocket money of several hundred yuan a month should be used like running water. Moreover, parents also believe that it is better to be bitter than to embarrass their children. He doesn't know that children will have more desires after they develop arrogant habits, and if they have more desires, they will have no virtue. It's useless when you grow up.

Zhang Zai, a thinker, educator and philosopher in the Northern Song Dynasty, said: "Make a heart for heaven and earth, make a life for the people, carry forward the past and the future, and be peaceful for all generations." The meaning of life lies in self-interest, altruism and less satisfaction. We should not only cherish our own blessings, but also educate our children and students to cherish them.

The wife of a layman in Yuan Lefan in Qing Dynasty was a kind woman. One winter, she made cotton-padded clothes for her son. There was silk cotton at home, so she sold it for cotton wool. Mr. Fan asked her: "There is silk cotton at home, why do you want to change it into cotton wool?" She said, "Silk cotton is too expensive. You can give it to others if you sell it. Anyway, you can keep warm with cotton wool. " Mr. Fan was very happy because he wouldn't worry about the future happiness of his children!

Buddhism has a cloud of wisdom: if you can't enjoy all the blessings, you will not be blessed if you enjoy them; Bitter is exhausted, but bitter is not bitter. Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it. Fear of disaster, fear of happiness fleeting.

Sharing weal and woe is a well-known causal relationship. If God really wants to bless a person, give him wisdom first.

Smart people know how to cherish and care for everything, and know how to manage the family diligently. Therefore, please be the person with positive energy, keep a clear head, always be kind, be content, accumulate happiness and enjoy happiness, health and longevity.
