It takes humility to walk into a student’s heart & mind

In the course of interacting with people, I have discovered that every person is truly a book.

Influenced by different kinds of karmic forces and thoughts/beliefs, lives take shape in diverse, fascinating and strange forms.

You may feel surprised initially, but over a period of time, you will feel that this is very rich & diverse.

It takes humility in one’s heart to walk into any person’s heart & mind. When one is not humble, it is impossible to read and understand [the other person]. You need to read very cautiously and meticulously in order to really understand.

Translation and review by: Chong Lee Hiang and Adeline Tay

怀着谦卑的心,走进学生的心

跟人接触的过程中,发现每个人真的就是一本书。各种各样的业力,各种各样的思想,形成千奇百怪的生命。一开始你可能会觉得很惊讶,久了之后,你就会觉得这很丰富。

走进任何一个人的心,必须怀着谦卑的心,不谦虚的话就读不懂,要非常小心,仔细地阅读,才能够读懂。
