颠覆你的思维模式，便是佛法的目的 | Pull the Rug from underneath Your Feet

我们惯用的思维是正确的吗？不，如果正确，为什么至今我们仍然活在数不尽的痛苦之中。

     我们一直主观上的认为自己的想法没有纰漏，然而正是这些想法让自己深陷于一个又一个轮回。从古至今，我们从没有因为自己的想法而活的更好。但可笑的是，如今我们依然觉得自己的想法是最正确的。

 而佛法为什么不被大多数人接受，就是因为它太不可思议，太颠覆我们的思维模式，只要是我们能想到的就不是佛法真正要阐述的实相。正是如此，我们才觉得无法接受，才会一直回避。我们只是习惯于接受自己能够接受的。

     看，我们就是如此的狭隘、局限。这种眼里容不得沙子的习气，有时会让自己感觉快要窒息。

     然，法界本就如此，无论你接受与否，它都有它本来的实相。无论你相信与否，你都无法逃出宇宙本来的套路，另行其道。如太阳升起、落下，人的生老病死，因果的真实不虚。

     既然如此，我们为何还要逃避，为何不去面对，不去打开心扉了解与我们息息相关的东西，让自己活的更明白，更有意义。既然我们受制于自己的思维、毁灭于自己的习惯，那为何我们不去找一些能够颠覆它、拆解它的方法，让自己真正的无限制、无束缚。

     一个非常现实的问题是，我们除了修行佛法其实根本无路可走，逃避不可能让我们活得更好，只有迎难而上，只有放下所有的不接受、不相信才有可能迎得更大的空间。

      试着颠覆自己的思维模式吧！试着接受佛法吧！因为这是唯一的出路！ 

嘉样堪布

Is our habitual way of thinking correct? Most probably not. If it is correct, why do we still have todeal with countless sufferings?

We’d loveto think that our own logic is sound enough to avoid any mistake. Yetsuch bigotryonlytrapped us in samsara,we have never lived a better life because of those whimsical ideas. Funny is that we still trust our own ideas.

Why some people reject Buddha Dharma? It’s because sometimes it’s over their head and different from daily thinking. The truth of the world is notfor anylogictopenetrate. And that’s why some of us can’t accept it and always evade its truth. We are so comfortable with the world we understand.  

Look at us! So narrow minded, so short sighted. We can’t stand a slightly different idea. Sometimes this feels suffocating.

The phenomenal realm is what it is. No matter you reject it or accept it, it is the truth. No matter you believe it ordoubt it, you can’t evade its ruling. The truth includes the universal law, such as sun rise, sun down, birth, old age, sickness and death, such as the law of cause and effect.  

If we can’t run, don’t run! Why not face it. Open our heart and try to understand all which are connected to our existence. Live and know yourself, live and make the most of it. The fact is that we are the slave of our thoughts, and we perishbecause of our habits, why not find a way to turn them upside down and analyze them until nothing leftat all. Then, finally, we can live without restrain or limit.

Real problem is that, except for dharma practice we have nothing else to do. Running away cannot lead to a brighter future.Only we rise to the challenge, forsake all disbeliefand accept what is true, can weenter a new stage.

Tryout these subversive ideas and practice dharma step by step! For this is the only way out.
