MEDITATION
修 禅
For true peace to prevail in the mind,
you need to have meditation time.
The external happiness, cheer and jubilation
are nowhere near the inner peace of meditation.

你需要有冥想时间。外在的快乐、
欢呼和喜庆与冥想的内心平静相去甚远。

We will then create a Heaven in this life and the afterlife.
我们有规律和持续的思想和精神状态与我们创造天堂或地狱的精神世界
有关。 愿我们永远“行善,远离恶,净心”。 然后,
我们将在今生和来世创造一个天堂。

Happy and Peaceful
