Drive, 駕駛(驾驶) [jià shǐ] to drive


Just as we must drive a vehicle carefully to avoid accidents and reach our destination, we must navigate life skillfully. Otherwise, we will not only fail to reach our destination, but we will have to get off the ride of life before we get there.


If we curb our greed, maintain a safe distance, and drive calmly, there is no reason to get angry. However, trouble arises when a single thought goes wrong in an instant, and we fail to snap out of it quickly. Since everything follows its own natural course, only those who are well prepared for each moment in life can progress to the next step.


To navigate life smoothly without colliding with others, we need a lot of practice and experience. People in this world are all truly different. There is no one whose mind is exactly like ours. That is why accidents happen when we let our guard down, even for a moment.


Drive safely today.


- Venerable Bo-an
