你是否每天都在忙碌?为了升职、为了生活或者只是为了一时的欢快?
甚至是吃饭的时候都要拿着手机不停地看新闻,害怕没有你的驻足,这个世界上的大事便少了一个重量级的观众?
实际上,当你忙到如此地步的时候,你可能已经忘记了观察你的内心世界,在这里你才可以找到真正属于自己的安宁和修复。
正念专家(Mindfulness expert)Andy Puddicombe在TED(Tec. Education and Design, 科技、教育和设计)大会上分享了一个演讲,题目为Andy Puddicombe: All it takes is 10 mindful minutes。每天只花10分钟时间什么事都做不,在这段时间里闭着眼睛,让思维放松下来,让注意力在全身游离,如果有杂念,再拉回来。
如此往复,贵在坚持。假以时日,你可以自由地掌控注意力之后,你甚至可以不用过分地将其限制在一个地方,你只需要退后,关注思维游离的过程。当你思维放松的时候,可以认为这才是真正的放松,比一般人累的时候看电视剧或者听歌更为有效的方式。
下面是听完之后的一点思考:
I have some deep understanding of sometraditions and learned some valuable guidance for improving my life throughthis session. Maybe I have heard these items but I have never thought what thatreally mean.
Honesty to see, I was fascinated by thetradition of Buddhism and influenced by that. That would make sense for me tochange my mind. That was a long term way which is valuable for persistingthrough year and year.
Buddhism, in some way, is like mercy orkindhearted for others for me which represent the pursuit for love or happinessin one’s inner heart. In the tradition of history, the Buddhism is praisedhighly by the emperor of Tang Dynasty or later. The sprit of Buddhism such asgood intention is infiltrated into daily life of original citizens. On theother hand, it has invisible connection with Chinese Confucianism. In myopinion, that was a prompt for taking life seriously and not complainingothers. I was encouraged to insist plan which I thought valuable but othersnot. Finally, I have got some success in that way for that time for the mostimportant choice for entrance to the wealth. I was affected by the fact that ifyou could authentically grab key concepts of complex world, you will use itinto every fields you set foot in and your growth was seen in a visible way.
As you know, one would be influenced by theconditions of his or her family and hometown. I am living in a country full oftemple in China. There are many people having some faith in Buddha of Buddhismwhich was might overestimated by a lot of civilizations in urban area. Theythought that if they have the characteristic of patience and benevolence, etc,they would get the peace of inner heart. Honesty to say, I have been influencedby many related books or TV drama such as Story of Journey to the West, famousfor a Buddhist named Xuan Zang with strong desire of pursuit for ideas formofficial Buddhism form West.
Sati is sad and shocking for me withoutlove for peace; Vipassana is like Wang yangming, a famous Confucian, said “Toobtain knowledge by investigation of things”; Zen is similar to Chan in China, whichaim to try one’s best to find the essence of world; Daoism came form Zhuang andLao encourages, especially, emperor treat people with a kind and generous way;Stoicism might lay emphasis on one’s behavior, but I thought that would havelittle meanings because of some appetency is hard to resist.
As a tradition, it gave some guide to thethe practice of mindfulness or meditation. I have learned that if you have arelatively stable will for daily life or your carrer. That will be nice foreveryone to continue his or her life even though he or she was in difficulttimes.
In a word, the tradition about Buddhismgave some guidance to the way of practice with strong will and peaceful moodfor your life.
