Laziness is the killer of all achievements

Question: "I have been studying Buddhism for seven or eight years, but my faith is still not strong now.How to deal with it if you are a little lazy?”

Master Miaojiang: We who study Buddhism do the same thing, and it does not mean that everything is successful.So what to do is lazy and not strong in confidence. This is a common disease between success and failure of every Buddhist and even every person in the world.Successful people will never slack off and will never retreat.Why is slackness? It is because of being confused and doubting this and that. Even, I can’t let go of the reality and the current things, and I can’t let go of it, and I don’t concentrate on learning.

I just mentioned experts and scholars, but experts and scholars just put aside all the special practice and become experts.We are miscellaneous people, so we did nothing, just like me (applause). Experts just let go of everything and specialize in this matter. Others call them experts. We are blocked by simple things and important things. This is called slackness, slackness.

What is the last thing? If you don’t work hard at a young age, you will only be sad.From my age, I have already felt that if I don’t work hard for the young, I will only be sad.So, I also came here to run this temple, giving me an opportunity to learn from more experts and scholars, and have this confidence.

The lay Buddhist also asked very well, and said how to deal with it.The simple way I just mentioned is to let go of some things. That is important, that is not important, that should be done, that should not be done, that should not be done, or that should not be done for the time being.

Especially those who study Buddhism, those who study Buddhism mainly focus on studying Buddhism.We are studying Buddhism at home, so we are asking to take a break from our busy schedule.Our Amitabha Sutra says that if one day, two days, and seven days, it means giving yourself time to do your own things within seven days.If you practice hard and work hard, you will be reborn in the Pure Land.It's not about death.It's easy to deal with it if you know this.If you don't know, you won't be able to cure it
