REDUCE DESIRES AND LET THINGS TAKE THEIR OWN COURSE
Master Jun Hong Lu: There is a concept that goes ‘have less desire and let things take their own course’. When a person has less desires and relinquishes everything including actions and inactions, he will find both mental and physical ease.
We should not be troubled by trivial, everyday matters but strive to attain what is called ‘a mind that is neither content nor discontent’. In fact, the mind will not remain in a state of contentment, neither will it be in constant discontentment as eventually it is appeased – just like how you wouldn’t be discontented when you get what you want, would you?
