OVERCOMING SUSPICION WITH PURE FAITH
Master Jun Hong Lu: If you frequently maintain an enduring heart; because you believe that he is a good person, because you believe that he will not hurt you, your mind will naturally be steadfast. Why are there many people who are suspicious of others?
It is due to their unsettled mind. When one’s mind is unsettled, he will roll his eyes furtively for an extended period before his heart starts to throb, only to sink into sadness eventually.
In today’s world, people are extremely imaginative. Many people are faced with the problem of having jumble of thoughts racing through their mind constantly. The more you brood over a matter, the worse it gets. The more you look at someone, the more suspicious you get, “I think he is the one who did it”. The more you think about it, the more you will feel that the person is responsible for the act.
Everything that the person does will lead you to believe that he must be the culprit and arouse your suspicion. These are attributable to an unsettled state of mind. How can a person gain wisdom if he does not have a steadfast mind?
