Until the moment of death, he still could not realize that he was wrong(至死不悟)
During the Eastern Jin Dynasty in China,
there was a famous Taoist scholar whose name was (Ge Hong).
He wrote a book. This book records his life
and what he saw and heard.
There is a paragraph in this book as
follows.
There are two kinds of people in this
world.
Most people don't know what they really
should pursue in life.
These people cannot avoid troubles and
resist temptation.
They are easily affected by the external
environment, and their spirit is wasted on some daily affairs.
They like more excitement and more fresh
and fun things.
After they have done these things,
disasters often follow, but at this time these people still don't realize that
the problem lies with them.
They will pray or sacrifice, and they feel
that doing so will turn disaster into a blessing.
These people will not wake up to their
mistakes until death.
Only a few people know what they should
really pursue in life.
These people can calmly face many troubles
and temptations.
They will not be affected by the external
environment, and their spirit is focused on cultivating their own souls.
They remain pure and simple.
They did not pursue good luck in
particular, but good luck took the initiative to come. They don't especially
avoid bad luck, but bad luck takes the initiative to stay away.
They first focus on improving their own
moral and behavioral deficiencies, and their behavior is in line with the
truth, so they can get these good results instead.
This is an idiom meaning that a person has
not realized that he is wrong until the moment of death.
Dear friend, what inspiration or thoughts
did you have after hearing this story.
What kind of person do you think you are?
Do you think your life has more good luck or bad luck?
I hope this story will give you some new
gains.
至死不悟(Until the moment of death, he still
could not realize that he was wrong)
中國的東晉時代，有一個著名的道家學者，他的名字叫做(葛洪)。
他寫了一本書。這本書中記錄他的生平與所見所聞。
這本書中有一段如下。
這世上有兩種人。
大多數人不知道人生真正應該追求的是什麼。
這些人無法杜絕煩惱與抵擋誘惑。
他們很容易被外在的環境影響，他們的精神浪費在一些日常事務上。
他們喜歡更多的刺激與更多新鮮好玩的事情。
在他們做了這些事情之後，往往災禍就跟著來到，但此時這些人仍然不會覺悟到問題出在自已身上。
他們會去祈禱或者獻祭，而且他們覺得這樣做就會轉禍為福。
這些人直到死亡來臨時都不會醒悟自已的錯誤。
只有少數人知道人生中真正應該追求的是什麼。
這些人可以平靜的面對許多煩惱與誘惑。
他們不會被外在的環境影響，他們的精神放在修練自已的心靈上。
他們保持純潔與簡單。
他們沒有特別去追求好運，但是好運卻主動過來•。他們不特別去躲避壞運但是壞運卻主動遠離。
他們把焦點先放在改善自己的道德與行為缺失，他們的行為合乎真理，所以他們反而可以獲得這些好的結果。
這是一句成語的意思是一個人直到死亡的那一刻都沒有領悟自已是錯的。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你認為你是那一種人呢?你覺得你的人生是好運比較多還是壞運比較多呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
