Thế nào là ‘nghèo khổ’? Câu chuyện của Trang Tử làm thay đổi quan niệm bao người

Hello everyone welcome to the cultural segment of DKN TV Today we will share the story of what it means to be poor The story of Trang Tử has changed the perspectives of many people We often forget to speak of poverty as being poor or humble Eventually we no longer know of a realm where there is poverty but no suffering Poor but not humble This is the realm of Zhuangzi Laozi the Buddha Shakyamuni and other enlightened sages Zhangzi tore his clothes and tied his shoes with hemp ropes He met Nguyen Wang Nguyen Wang said "Sir you seem to be in great distress " Zhangzi replied poor but not suffering A scholar with integrity never suffers Thick books are a sign of poverty not suffering It's just a matter of not meeting the right time The young monkey and squirrel were able to jump and move freely because they found a large tree with long branches and flexible feet Even the most skilled archers could not bring it down If it happens to hit a dry thorny branch its movement becomes difficult and slow A beast whose movements can be both easy and difficult It's simply because of an unfavorable situation that makes it not free using all its abilities It's not a matter of mistaken timing Above there is cunning and deceit below there is chaos and bandits Can one avoid hardship and toil Hello everyone we often casually say "poor" or "humble " but that's because we still equate them with each other Poverty is suffering poverty is humiliation We seem very certain about that It's better not just to say poor but to arbitrarily add suffering or humiliation to it Eventually we no longer know of a realm where poverty exists without suffering poverty without humiliation This is the realm of the sages the recluses the Buddha Shakyamuni and other enlightened masters People suffer from poverty because they cannot endure material deprivation The torment of the flesh the struggle of the clinging mind for fame and profit and the form of the human being in which the self is a name There is the forced rejection of the world's love for their own poverty Some people are not poor but suffer because their family members wife and children take away their belongings and this also affects their emotions Therefore only when one prioritizes wealth and status over love and relationships does one realize that poverty is suffering and poverty is humiliation Of course for ordinary people like us thinking that way is not wrong but we must not forget that there are still some holy men who look down upon fame profit and love Even if they do not take hardship as their goal They disregard suffering even finding joy in it but the ultimate goal is to escape the suffering of worldly life There have always been people like this The noble king who was the ruler of a country surpassing ten thousand people was still an ordinary person Again from our own suffering we infer the suffering of others how can we infer the suffering of a corpse Isn't it like the nightingale the cicada will never understand the big northern bird that comes in thousands on the fifteenth night Why must we fly to the 9 000-meter high altitude to see the vast silent blue Just as Beijing's crude argument is that they have helped Tibet they now help modern Tibetans Without them the people of Tibet would not have paved roads railways to travel on or high-rise buildings to live in How could there be such material comforts now Therefore the Beijing government has helped Tibet develop The people of Tibet would be less suffering and the people of Tibet would be grateful so why would they oppose They don't need to consider the people of Tibet at all Does a pure language nation need development or modernization Does it matter if life is lacking in those conveniences Is it appropriate to set life's goal as enjoying material comforts What the Tibetan people need is for Beijing to respect their voice and respect their right to freedom Do not destroy the monasteries or beat the monks return to them the sky earth nature and the culture of the Tibetan people Please return to the story between Trang Chau and Nguyen Phuong about the word "poor " The Elderly Sage had understood the mysterious truth of transformation owing the secrets of the universe and understanding the rise and fall of society the life of a person still sets the goal of becoming a national millionaire To enjoy the fleeting narrow and constrained happiness of a woman's life If one does not desire wealth they cannot become rich But even though the wise old man does not seek wealth a wise ruler must always honor the virtuous and invite them to be his teacher But he urinated on the Guest of Honor in hopes that they would strive leading to the prosperity of the country The wise and the talented living in the king's country But the king doesn't even pay any attention to it let alone the common people Is the new king the one with a poor mind Talented people who have to spend time worrying about food and clothing how can they have time to contribute to the country That is a waste But if talented people are wasted does that not make the country poorer It is not the fault of the ruling authorities like the pseudo-foreigners Who is to blame Hello everyone we all know as Trang Chu said that it's clear born at the right time above is wise and below is chaotic But don't you want to avoid the trouble That's the scene the times are like that it's hard not to be poor one can only be like a monkey or a gibbon Living in a dry and fragile world rugged and hard to climb like a seed buried in the desert Hello everyone our culture segment of DKN comes to an end here Thank you all for listening See you again in the next programs Goodbye everyone
