Bear small grievances, and accumulate great merits 受得了小委屈,成就了大福报

Bear small grievances, and accumulate great merits.

【Xian’er says so: “I have been through a lot of grievances.” 】

Xian’er went to worship the Buddha at Yuquan Monastery in Dangyang Hubei.
The moment he entered the monastery, he shouted “Er ye, Er ye……”
Others were confused how come Xian’er has gotten an uncle here.
They have come to find out that Er Ye is Lord Guan, a.k.a the Second Uncle.
Lord Guan was happy to see Xian’er and asked him:
“Dear Er, what’s up? Who bullied you? Tell me, I will take care of it...”
Xian’er said: “Wang Xiaowu always gives me a hard time.

I have been through a lot of grievances......”
Lord Guan said: “Here’s the thing. I’m now a Dharmapala and Garan Bodhisattva.

I am no longer a general. In this case, you ought to listen to your Shifu. You have to learn to tolerate and be a bigger person ......”
Xian’er listened attentively and felt relieved. 


Below are quoted from my Shifu’s new book, Say Good Things—Master Xuecheng’s insight on the path to speaking like a Buddha.
Living in this world,
One has the choice of living a stingy and calculated life, or a generous and happy life.
Some are keen on getting more whenever possible;
Some don’t mind giving some to others.
Those who are successful in life share something in common.
More generosity, and more diligence;
Less fuss, and less complaint.
If you can bear minor loss, you will not suffer major loss.
If you can bear small grievance, you will accumulate grand merit. 

受得了小委屈,成就了大福报

【贤二如是说:我委屈受大了 】

贤二去湖北当阳玉泉寺拜佛,
一进庙就喊:“二爷,二爷......”
大家都很纳闷,
贤二怎么会有个二爷在这里,
仔细一看,原来是关公、关二爷。
关二爷看见贤二也很高兴,也很心疼,
就问贤二:“二啊,你怎么了?
谁欺负你了?告诉我,看我不一刀......”
贤二说:“王小五老是跟我过不去,
我委屈受大了......”
关二爷说:“是这样啊,
我现在是护法神了,
是伽蓝菩萨了,不是当年的将军啦,
这个事情,还是你师父说的对。
要忍让,要大度......”
贤二听完后心开意解。


以下来自我师父的《好好说话》
人活在世上,
斤斤计较是一辈子,
宽厚快乐也是一辈子;
有人爱贪小便宜,有人甘心吃亏。
真正活得成功的人,都是相似的:
多一点豁达,多一点勤快;
少一点计较,少一点抱怨。
吃得了小亏,绝不会吃大亏;
受得了小委屈,成就了大福报。
