Whether the situation is good or bad, it is always false and unreal

People can think deeply about how important it is to escape the cycle of birth and death, see through all worldly affairs, and understand that no matter good or bad circumstances, they are always illusory and unreal, and they are just empty flowers when they pass by.
With only one thought of observing the precepts, worshipping and repenting, and with a firm belief in the Three Jewels (Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha), live with him, die with him. At the same time, they can specifically measure their own faults, not blame others, follow the footsteps of the ancient saints, and not fluctuate with the trends of the times. Perhaps as our confidence becomes stronger and our wisdom develops, we can transcend the cycle of life and death forever.
