痛苦的本质,源自你对这件事的包容度

禅师有一个爱抱怨的弟子。一天,禅师将一把盐放入一杯水中让弟子喝,弟子说:咸得发苦。禅师又把更多的盐撒进湖里,让弟子再尝湖水。弟子喝后说:纯净甜美。禅师说:生命中的痛苦是盐,它的咸淡取决于盛它的容器。你愿做一杯水,还是一片湖水?

The Zen master had a disciple who loved to complain. One day, the Zen master put a handful of salt into a glass of water and let the disciple drink it. The disciple said, "It's so salty that it tastes bitter." Then the Zen master sprinkled more salt into the lake and let the disciple taste the lake water again. After drinking it, the disciple said, "It's pure and sweet." The Zen master said, "The pain in life is like salt, and its degree of saltiness depends on the container that holds it. Do you want to be a glass of water or a lake?"
