Back to the original point composition traditional culture

Nowadays, with the development of social economy and science and technology, the material quality of life has also gone up, living in luxury houses, driving beautiful cars, eating big meals and getting drunk. For human nature, it is getting more and more complicated. There are all kinds of ways to turn on the TV and open the newspaper: first, someone was arrested for drunk driving and called "my father is Li Gang", and then the drugs that killed people with eight knives after the car accident; And poisoned milk, lean meat, waste oil, etc. are endless ... people feel very embarrassed. How far are we from the origin of human nature?

Let's recall the origin of human nature along the historical footprint. There is a saying at the beginning of San Zi Jing: at the beginning of life, human nature is good. It tells us that the origin of human nature is goodness. At the beginning of human nature, everyone is a blank sheet of paper, without any stain, and everything starts with goodness. However, with the increase of life experience, the paper will change, or your paper will have colorful marks, or your paper will have unsightly dirt. At this time, your situation will be farther and farther away from the white paper of the origin. Faced with such a situation, different people have different choices.

Some people get deeper and deeper, unable to extricate themselves. Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan made great contributions to the country and people in the revolutionary struggle. At that time, people saw that his paper was brilliant. But in the face of the temptation of money, they can't resist, and their paper is getting darker and deeper. Mills of God grind slowly but sure. They were personally approved by Chairman Mao to be executed, and finally they could not escape punishment.

Some people see the situation clearly and return to the original point. Tao Yuanming, who has been in a cage for a long time, has seen clearly the struggle and darkness of officialdom and doesn't want to immerse himself in this filthy atmosphere any more. He got rid of all the prosperous possibilities comfortably, hung up his boots and went back to the fields, picked chrysanthemums under the hedge, and looked at Nanshan leisurely every day, which was very comfortable. Instead of being blackened by reality, his paper became whiter and whiter.

So, wouldn't it be great if we could see the situation clearly and let everything gradually return to the original point?

Two famous China Kung Fu stars told us this very well. /kloc-Jackie Chan, 0/8 years old, became an instant hit with "The Snake Carver". He got money, fame and fortune overnight, and so on, so he flaunted himself and showed off his hotels and restaurants as a nouveau riche. After getting in touch with charity, he found that he hated himself very much. He felt that charity could make him return to a happy state, so everyone could see that he had been devoted to charity and donated money for many years. In our impression, Jet Li has been filming, and there is no other impression. In the shocking tsunami in the Indian Ocean in 2003, he passed through the danger with the help of others, which made him see the brilliance and strength of human kindness, so he had an epiphany and set up the One Foundation himself, and devoted all his energy to doing a good job in him, so that the kindness at the beginning of his life could spread throughout the global village.

Yes, now that our society is rich, people have a better material life. However, spiritual wealth is getting less and less, and the goodness of human nature is getting dimmer and dimmer. If this continues for a long time, I really don't know what will happen. So, while pursuing material civilization, let's calm down and think about it. What is the origin of human nature? Yes, the origin of human nature is goodness. In order to return to that origin, please recognize the present situation and be yourself. Don't do it because of small goodness, and don't do it because of small evils.
