如何真诚起来

摘要：我们平时很容易向往别人对自己真诚，有时候希望自己也能真诚起来，但并不见得有方法。在多变的情绪中，在不纯正的心的支使下，没办法真诚。

人一旦安心了呢，生命就会发生一个质的变化——为什么这样说呢？人一安心，就会真诚起来。我们很多时候的不真诚，是不安心带来的一种情绪变异。做事、表达、思维都是根据情绪的起伏来的，随着情绪跑，所以谈不上真诚。平时接人待物我们都可以去观察。

真诚就是令变异或者多变这样的状态发生了一个质变，因为内心安稳了。真诚是内在安心基础上的一个表现，它给人带来稳定、纯粹的特质。像佛陀说的“诸恶莫作，众善奉行”的“善”，是纯正的、空性的善，能净化世间，安稳有情。无论顺缘、违缘，什么缘来了——惠予众生真实之利是不变的，那这个真诚的内容就能表现出来。那些智慧者、觉悟者的真诚，来源于彻底的安心。这个彻底究竟的安心一定是和万事万物的本质联系在一起的，这个本质指的就是性空。如幻——所有事相的真相，它超越了种种事相的差别给我们带来的不安心。因为一切如幻，所以万事万物的清净平等性就显现出来了。

我们平时很容易向往别人对自己真诚，有时候希望自己也能真诚起来，但并不见得有方法。在多变的情绪中，在不纯正的心的支使下，没办法真诚。我们通过阳光早餐这个平台，能有机会共同交流、学习那些智慧者、大成就者给予的方法，在生活中去实践、去体验、去观察，我们自身的安心就有了依止。慢慢学会认识自心，运用自心，我们的内心世界就会发生质的变化，就能真诚起来。

How to be sincere

Once people find their inner peace, their life quality will change . Why? Because inner peace leads to sincerity. Most of the time, we are not sincere because our restless heart makes us emotional. What we do, express and think are all based on our emotional ups and downs, and in that way we followed our emotion so we cannot be sincere. We could observe whether this is true in our social life.

Being sincere means bringing a qualitative change to the unstable status, because we feel stable inside.

Sincerity is the demonstration of inner peace, which brings people stability and purity.

As Buddha taught ‘ To cease from any evil, to do whatever kind’. The kind deeds mentioned here by Buddha is pure and empty by nature, and it can purify the world and help people to settle down.

If our ultimate aspiration of genuinely benefiting all beings does not alter, under whatever circumstances of things happening, we are able to manifest the content of sincerity.

The sincerity of those people who are wise and enlightened comes from a complete fulfillment in one’s heart.

This ultimate fulfillment must be connected with the essential nature of everything and this essence is defined as emptiness.

The truth that everything is illusionary surpasses all anxiety and restlessness brought up by various manifestations.

As everything is illusionary, the purity and equality of the universe is then demonstrated.

We are likely to yearn for others to treat us genuinely and sometimes also hope ourselves to become more sincere, but we may lack methods.

We just can’t be genuine if we leave ourselves indulged in moods and fooled around by our chaotic thoughts.

Through this Sunshine Breakfast platform, we have the opportunity to exchange and learn the method given by those wise and enlightened people and then to apply it in our life to practise , observe and enjoy the experience. In that way we would find the base of our inner peace.

Our inner world will have an up-side-down change if we try to look back into ourselves and learn to use our mind, finally we will be sincere up.
