Seek wisdom from your heart

Be quiet and you will find the power of peace.

Sometimes, when people face many problems in society, they cannot find the answer. The difficulties are so complicated that they always don't know how to start.

People always think that by brainstorming and studying hard, they can improve their wisdom and solve the problems they face. But this actually runs counter to the way to gain true wisdom.

The true wisdom does not come from learning and discussing, learning and discussing this method, it is aimed at specific problems, but the world is always changing, today’s answers may not be able to solve tomorrow’s problems.

In fact, a person’s true wisdom lies not in the external world, but in the heart. There is no need to seek solutions to all the world’s problems from the outside, but to seek solutions from the inside.

The only way to gain inner wisdom is to maintain inner peace.

Only through meditation can you show your inner strength. Human thoughts are like lake water, and ordinary people's thoughts are like a turbulent lake, unable to leave reflections of the outside world. If a person's heart calms down, then the inner lake will be as quiet as a mirror, so that foreign objects can be truly illuminated by the lake, restore the original nature of things, and find the best way to solve the problem.

Ancient Chinese sages believed that everyone possesses immense wisdom only because their hearts are full of greed, hatred, fear, worry and other emotional delusions that cannot be exploited.

Like a light bulb, it was initially transparent and bright, and could illuminate the house, but because the surface has been covered by smoke and dust for many years, the light is obscured. The same is true of human wisdom. Everyone has infinite wisdom, but because of the cover of dust, it can no longer be revealed.

The process of calming the mind is the process of getting rid of all kinds of emotions and delusions. This is the process of removing oil and dust from the light bulb, and it is also the process of calming the turbulent lake. Taishang Laojun said: "The human heart can be quiet, and the world can return." This means that if one can calm one's mind, then everything in the world will be controlled by you.

If you can't seek wisdom from within, it can only be in vain. On the contrary, finding wisdom from the inside is the result of getting twice the result with half the effort.
