Thoughts on reading "Simplifying Life"
Yuanfang industry (Shanghai) / Li Jian
 Recently, I read Yamashita yingzi's "broken away", and I feel quite touched. It's amazing that these three condensed Chinese characters have such a great driving force to cut off material desires, abandon waste and get rid of distractions!
Cleaning up the waste is just a stepping stone to the end of abandonment. What should be cleaned up is not only the useless things at home, but also those inappropriate ideas on the spiritual level, as well as the negative thoughts or memorials that lead to self denial and self condemnation. Only by letting go of these things can we liberate ourselves and liberate our life. When the concept and spirit are really separated, we can get the overlooking thinking -- high view, wide field of vision, deep dynamic observation, and really embark on the road of freedom.
In different forms, it is reflected in job hopping, marriage, divorce, remarriage, childbirth, housemoving and other important events of life. When the sun is covered by dark clouds and the heart is willfully manipulated by bad emotions, only by driving away the dark clouds can life return to a clear sky. And the true meaning of breaking away is to guide us how to drive away the dark clouds in our hearts, and keep a calm attitude before we get success and happiness.
In other words, severance is not only a household reorganizing technique to deal with sundries, but also contains the power to make people take on a new look, which has guiding significance for work and interpersonal communication. In fact, compared with reorganize skills, Yamashita teachers pay more attention to the moral level. She advocates that through physical and mental cultivation, subtraction in material and addition in mind, readers are guided to base themselves on the present, actively carry out the flow and exchange between body and external environment, and promote metabolism.
It advocates reducing the subtraction of life as much as possible. Chopping, abandoning and breaking away all belong to subtraction. Although it can bring about a simple and simple life, the core of it is the repeated cycle of "going out, going in, going out". Both "going in" and "going out" are indispensable. Its biggest purpose is to shake our deep-rooted values of goods, encourage us to get rid of inertia and take action. No matter what difficulties we encounter or any problems we encounter, we can keep our mind clear and usher in a new life.
