How many seasons of a year?

One day, a student of Confucius was sweeping the floor outside the door, and a guest came and asked him: Who are you?

He said proudly: I am Mr. Kong’s disciple!

The guest said, that's great, can I ask you a question?

The student said happily: Yes!

He thought to himself: What kind of strange problem do you have?

Guest asked: How many seasons are there in a year?

The student thought, do you still need to ask such a question?So he replied: Spring, summer, autumn and winter.

The guest shook his head and said: No, there are only three seasons a year.

Alas, you're wrong, Four Seasons!

Three seasons!

In the end, the two people had arguing and decided to make a bet: If it was four seasons, the guest would kowtow three times to the students.If it is three seasons, students kowtow three times to the guests.

Confucius' students thought they would win this time, so they were ready to take the guests to see their teacher Confucius.

It happened that Confucius walked out of the house at this time, and the student stepped forward and asked: Teacher, how many seasons are there in a year?

Confucius glanced at the guest and said: There are three seasons a year.

The student was almost stunned, but he didn't dare to ask immediately.

The guest immediately said: Kowtow!

The student had no choice but to kowtow three times.

After the guest left, the student couldn't wait to ask Confucius: Teacher, there are four seasons a year, so what do you say about three seasons?

Confucius said: Didn’t you see that the person just now had green all over his body?He is a grasshopper ( ma zha）， Grasshoppers are born in spring and die in autumn. They have never seen winter before. If you talk about three seasons, they will be satisfied. If you talk about four seasons, they will not make sense until they are quarrels.If you suffer a loss, kowtow three times, it doesn’t matter.

Remember this story and don’t look at whether it is true or false. It works very well for us.

Because: As long as you know how to use it, you can live ten more years!

Many friends became very happy after listening to this story.When I met, I told me that I would get angry when I saw those unreasonable people, but now I don’t know. I thought that they were from Sanshi, so I didn’t take it to my heart.

The three-season people insist on their own truth because they have not seen the facts that prove their mistakes, so you are angry that you are sorry for yourself.

【Tell us the story]

Not fighting means compassion, not being criticized means wisdom,

Not listening is purity, not watching is freedom.

Forgiveness is liberation, and contentment is letting go.

For anyone, anything, when you are about to lose your temper, when you are emotionally unstable, you think that is the three seasons people, what the three seasons people do, and you will be calm immediately.
