Chapter 8 mind blinds

Your spiritual cabin has a window to communicate with the outside world. Have you installed venetian blinds on the window of your soul? Often, you are filled with joy and pride in the golden light pouring in from the window.Yes, how can there be no light in life, how can the soul be allowed to be dark?The small cabin of the soul must have the light and heat of the universe pouring in, so that it can have vitality and interest, and can it produce inspiration and the impulse to create.The so-called happiness and joy are directly proportional to the openness of the doors and windows of the soul.

However, during certain periods of life, the light from the outside world may not be pure sunlight.You have achieved certain achievements and obtained certain benefits, so the light of flattery, jealousy, and suspicion may pour in through the window scorchingly, which may make you inexplicably excited and forget yourself The actual situation is two pounds; it may make you suddenly annoyed and unable to calm down.At this time, if the window of your soul is equipped with a venetian blind that can be manipulated freely, then you can flexibly adjust the degree of opening and closing of the blade, so that the light can be transmitted in just right——you need a moderate amount of encouraging light to nourish your eyes. Your mind may be a little tired in your forging ahead; you should also moderately accommodate the light of criticism and nitpicking, so that you can clearly recognize your own shortcomings, and even have a deeper understanding—even if your actions are close to the end. You are good and perfect, but others will still scrutinize you for even the slightest inappropriateness and negligence. You have to get used to this kind of human soul collision phenomenon-in fact, as an "other" of others, you will be weighed when you look at it. How can you not be harsh in your vision?

However, the current Chinese people are still a very small part of the people who are exposed to strong light because of their successful fortune. Students, the pressure of academics, the pressure of being admitted to a higher-level school, the pressure of parents "looking forward to success", the pressure of open competition and hidden competition among classmates, are not small; young people who have graduated from technical schools or universities, the pressure of job hunting, The pressure of work and tasks after finding a job, especially the pressure of interpersonal communication that cannot be adjusted well, will make the mind full of anxiety.In this case, appropriately opening the windows of the mind, increasing the amount of light entering, and expanding one's field of vision can be taken as the first step.But the sky is cloudy, sunny, and windy, and we can’t always hope for the outside light to heal the darkness and depression in our minds caused by anxiety; besides, look at the wonderful world outside, look at the mountains from one mountain to another, and know that there are mountains beyond the mountains and sky beyond the sky , although there is a good side that motivates oneself to strive hard with ambitions in this society where competition is the development mechanism, hoping to be among the ranks of "successful people", but too much "looking outside", the expansion of desires, and the turmoil of the heart. Overwhelmed, it may also give rise to an impetuous and even indiscriminate mind that is too high-spirited and overconfident.In this way, it is necessary to take the second step—installing curtains to maintain a variable interactive relationship between yourself and the light and scenery outside the window.Ordinary curtains, such as cloth curtains that open and close left and right, have the disadvantage of either covering or ignoring, or venetian blinds, which can adjust your relationship with the light and scenery outside the window to the best state at any time.

At certain moments in life, it is of course necessary to not only roll up the venetian blinds, but also open the windows to let the sunlight and air flow from the outside, carrying the complex flavors of the world, flow in. Come to the most direct pleasure in life.However, in more periods of life, it is better to use the venetian blinds of the window of the soul to adjust the inner light and atmosphere to the most suitable state for yourself.If the light pouring in from the outside is too strong, close the louvers a bit to keep it quiet and peaceful; if the outside is cloudy and rainy for a while, light your heart lamp to illuminate your spiritual cabin as brightly as usual.

Don't you have Venetian blinds on the windows of your soul cabin?Don't hesitate, hurry up and put it on!
