平常心

拥有一颗平常心,能使人在无尽的欲望中达到那种知足常乐的境界,这种境界也正是解脱烦恼的开始。但这种“知足”并不是消极地满足现状,不思进取, 得过且过。这种满足是在认清自身价值前提下的知足,是摆正自己位置,而不是这山望着那山高的知足。你能做甚麽?你想做甚麽?在这二者之间必须具有清醒的认识,才能“常乐”,才能平心静气地安身立命。

I agreed. Just want to add that... “知足”is an on-going experience. Most people tend to think that once you reach the 'state' of “知足”, you will not need to do anything anymore which is wrong. In fact, “知足”is just a new begining...
