Although I am in danger, I am not afraid(臨難不懼)
The period from 770 BC to 221 BC was the
Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in China.
This period was a famous golden age in
Chinese history, and many thinkers and academic schools appeared.
Famous Lao Tzu, Confucius, Sun Tzu and
other figures all lived in this period.
At that time there was a famous thinker
whose name was (Deng Xi).
He wrote a book.
There is a passage in the book as follows.
Each of us cannot decide when we are going
to be born, nor can we decide when we are going to die.
We have also seen that many rich people
went bankrupt, and many poor people became rich later.
Many people will lament the early death of
a young life, and many people will complain about their current lack.
The reason is because these people did not
recognize the truth of life.
If we can understand that the Creator
naturally has his beautiful arrangements, we will naturally not be afraid when
we encounter difficulties.
If we can understand that the flow of money
is constantly rotating like the seasons, we will not succumb to the pressure of
reality when we are poor.
This idiom is used to describe a person who
is not afraid when he is in danger.
Dear friend, what inspiration or ideas do
you have after hearing this story.
Do you agree with his point of view? Do you
believe in the existence of a Creator?
I hope this story will give you a little
bit of gain.
臨難不懼(Although I am in danger, I am not
afraid)
西元前770年-西元前221年的這段期間，是中國的春秋時代與戰國時代。
這段時間是中國歷史上著名的黃金時代，有許多的思想家與學術流派出現。
著名的老子、孔子、孫子等等人物，都是生活在這的時期。
當時有一個著名的思想家，他的名字做(鄧析)。
他寫了一本書。
書中有一段話如下。
我們每個人都無法決定我們何時要出生，也無法決定我們何時要死亡。
我們也都看見很多富人後來破產，很多的窮人後來卻變得富有。
很多人會哀嘆一個年輕生命的早逝，很多人會埋怨自已現在的缺乏。
原因是因為這些人沒有認清生命的真相。
如果我們可以理解造物主自然有他美好的安排，我們在遭遇困難的時候自然就不會恐懼。
如果我們可以理解錢財的流動就像四季一樣不停的輪轉，我們在窮困的時候就不會屈服在現實的壓力之下。
這個成語被用來形容一個人在遭遇危難的時候仍然不恐懼。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或是想法呢。
你認同他的觀點嗎?你相不相信有造物主的存在呢?
我希望這故事能讓你產生一點收穫。
