Zhuangzi: Forgetting is great wisdom.
First, things have been forgotten.

Zhuangzi said, "Forgetting things and the sun means forgetting yourself. People who forget themselves are called into heaven. "

Everything outside of heaven and earth is revealed by your own heart, so forgetting yourself is also forgetting things, forgetting both.

Only by forgetting things can we "enter the sky", and "entering the sky" means conforming to nature.

Only by forgetting things can we forget right and wrong and get rid of troubles.

Zhuangzi said: "It is appropriate to forget your feet; Forget what you want (waist), take it with you; Knowing right and wrong, the heart is also smooth. "

If you forget the existence of feet, it is that shoes are comfortable to wear on your feet; If you forget the existence of the waist, it is that the belt tied to your body is very comfortable; Once people forget the disputes between right and wrong, grievances and enmities, it is that your heart has adapted to the external environment and become calm and calm.

Life is a heavy hundred-year calendar, with more and more days turned over and fewer and fewer days left.

Those who can't forget the past will lose even today's happiness; People who can't forget yesterday can't even grasp today!

Forgetting things, forgetting right and wrong, is to release the burden of the mind, forget those meaningless gains and losses, forget those encounters that have nothing to do with the overall situation, and forget the old barriers, so as to purify the mind and let yourself always go into battle lightly and move forward smartly!

Second, forget about life and death

Zhuangzi regards "life" as a malignant tumor on the skin. Being born in the world does not need to be particularly happy; Seeing "death" as a cancer has finally exploded, and there is no need to be afraid of death.

Zhuangzi believes that life and death are only natural changes, there is no gap between life and death, and the end is a new beginning.

Therefore, Zhuangzi said: "Forget each other, there is no end to poverty."

Forget life and death, heart and Tao are one, there is no end, there is no life and death.

Zhuangzi's life, not afraid of death, also did not live casually, forget life and death, so his spirit is so happy.

Third, forget Taoism.

Zhuangzi said: "Fish forget rivers and lakes, but people forget Taoism."

The fish is in the water, forgetting the existence of water. Similarly, those who truly gain the Tao will forget the appearance of the Tao.

People who really get the Tao will forget that they have the Tao; When people swim in the avenue, they will forget everything, so they say, "Forget Taoism."

A truly enlightened person will not be full of quotations, hypocritical and serious; If you can't speak, it's "how is Tao", and your mouth is full of cliché s in books.

A truly enlightened person, his words and deeds are no different from ordinary people, but a discerning person will see that his words and deeds are practicing Tao and embodying it.

Taoist thought is lofty and mysterious, and it is easy to be misunderstood by people who are not deeply enlightened.

Laozi said: "It is the rule of saints, which empties their hearts, strengthens their bellies, weakens their aspirations and strengthens their bones ..."

I mean, the sage rules the world, which is precisely to make the people accept humbly and enlighten modestly, just like the sage himself, so as to achieve a world where people forget the Tao.
