Let cats teach to live like Zen

If you feel tired today, try opening this book.

"Cat teaches Zen."

The book that teaches us how to live, that what we've always been looking for, is just this, philosophical, easy to read, illustrated, not very long.

Three ideas from this book

1. Stay with the present

- Like a cat walking along the waterfront, not worried about yesterday, not worried about tomorrow, just knowing it's walking now.

2. Always open your mind to learning

- Mistakes are not embarrassing, but they are lessons that make us grow up and not repeat the same mistakes.

3. Peace is power.

- Whether the problem in front is as big as a tiger, if our hearts are still like Zen cats, we can handle it with consciousness.

May today be a calm day like a cat looking at the sky. 😌

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัว การนำแนวคิดจากแมวสอนเซนมาใช้ในชีวิตประจำวันช่วยให้ผมรู้สึกผ่อนคลายขึ้นมาก ในช่วงเวลาที่รู้สึกเครียดหรือกังวลกับสิ่งที่ยังมาไม่ถึง การฝึกใจให้อยู่กับปัจจุบันแบบเจ้าแมว ทำให้ผมลดความวิตกกังวลและมีสมาธิมากขึ้นกับสิ่งที่ทำในตอนนั้นจริงๆ นอกจากนี้ การเปิดใจรับความผิดพลาดอย่างไม่อาย ถือเป็นบทเรียนที่สำคัญ เพราะช่วยให้เราเติบโตและหลีกเลี่ยงการทำผิดซ้ำได้ อย่างเช่นเจ้าแมวที่เดินไปตามริมฝั่งทะเลสาบโดยไม่สะทกสะท้านกับเสียงรบกวนรอบตัว สุดท้าย ความสงบคือพลังอย่างแท้จริง เมื่อเผชิญกับปัญหาใหญ่ เหมือนแมวที่นิ่งสงบต่อหน้าความท้าทาย เราสามารถตอบสนองด้วยสติและตรึกตรองโดยไม่รีบร้อน การอ่านหนังสือเล่มนี้ช่วยให้ผมมองโลกในมุมที่เบาลงและใช้ชีวิตอย่างมีความสุขมากขึ้นอย่างแท้จริง
