There Is A Kind Of Failure That Is Called "Blind" And "Too Deep".

If you are busy all the time, you need to think deeply: "how can we first put walnuts into our lives? If life is a bowl, it should be."

What about it?

There is one in the Buddhist temple in a valley.

He found that he had an apprentice very diligent, whether he went to the kitchen or the kitchen, and the disciple was busy from morning till night.

The young apprentice struggled inside and his eyes were getting darker and darker. Finally, he couldn't help looking for the master.

He said to the old Zen master, "master, I am too tired, but I have not seen any achievement. What is the reason?

The old Zen master pondered for a moment and said, "you bring the ordinary bowl."

The little apprentice took the bowl, and the old Zen master said, "well, put it here. You can go and fetch some walnuts for me."

The little apprentice did not know the intention of the master and brought in a pile of walnuts.

When the ten walnuts are placed in the bowl, the whole bowl is full.

The old Zen master asked the young disciple: "can you put more walnuts in the bowl?

"I can't take it. This bowl is already full. Let's put walnuts in and roll down.

"Oh, the bowl is full, right? You can bring some more rice.

The little apprentice also brought some rice. He poured rice into the bowl along the gap of the walnut, and put a lot of rice into it.

The little disciple stopped, and suddenly seemed to realize: "Oh, the bowls were not yet full.

"Is that full now?

"It's full now.

"Go and fetch some water again.

The little apprentice went to fetch the water again. He took a ladle of water and poured it into the bowl. After half a bowl of water was poured in, the gap was filled up.

The old Zen master asked the young disciple: "is this time full?

The little disciple looked at the bowl full, but he was afraid to answer it. He didn't know if the master could put anything in it.

The old Zen master smiled and said, "go and fetch a spoonful of salt."

The old Zen master salted again in the water, and the water did not overflow.

The little apprentice seemed to know something.

The old Zen master asked him, "what do you mean by this?

The little monk said, "I know, this shows that there is always time to squeeze.

The old Zen master shook his head with a smile and said, "this is not what I want to tell you.

Then the old Zen master poured the things in the bowl back into the basin and made an empty bowl.

The old Zen master slowly operated and said, "we put walnuts just now. Now let's go backward and see what happens.

The old Zen master put a spoonful of salt in it and poured it in. Then when he put rice in the bowl, the water began to spill. When the bowl was filled with rice, the old Zen master asked the young disciple: "look, can you put walnuts in the bowl now?"

The old Zen master said, "if your life is a bowl, when the bowls are all small things like these rice, how can you put those big walnuts in?

The young apprentice understood this thoroughly.

If you are busy all day, you need to think about it: "how can we put walnuts into our lives? If life is a bowl, how should we distinguish walnuts and rice?

If everyone knows what his walnut is, life will be simple and easy.

We should put walnuts in the bowl of life before we live, otherwise we will be in rice, sesame and water for life.

The walnut can't be put in.

Life is an empty bowl, but what should you put in first? What is your walnut?
