"The Beauty 'Returns to Secular Life' and I Learn Trading"

She has "returned to secular life" from the Buddhist circle—not in the sense of shaving her head to become a monk, but after ten years of exposure to Buddhism and five years of in-depth study, she actively returned to the mundane world and immersed herself in trading.

She said that true freedom comes from being able to enter and exit the secular world. A truly well-practiced person is formless, without characteristics, and without self. A person's life is about constantly breaking through ego attachments. All obstacles are issues of perception and perspective, fundamentally stemming from the narrowness and obsession of inner ego, which makes it impossible to integrate with all things. To live between the secular world and transcendence is the Middle Way.

The true way is the law itself: the rise and fall of the market, the cycles of cause and effect, the birth and death of emotions—none of these consider human feelings, only objectivity. Being loyal to the law is being loyal to the way.

Trading and practice are one, not two; the unity of mind and spirit is stability. Greed, anger, ignorance, arrogance, and doubt—the five poisons are reflected in the K-line; to cultivate the mind in trading is to practice in the secular world.

She plans to use the "willpower" learned from Buddhism to learn trading, spending ten or eight years is fine. Trading is a long-term learning process, opening a window to understand many things in the world through economics. Our lives are inseparable from economics; you must get close to it, understand it, learn it, and re-examine work and life with an economic perspective, which will bring clarity!

Willpower is greater than ability; once a thought arises, it can traverse thousands of mountains and rivers. She feels that this world is a game, and one must engage with a clear mind and serious dedication. Even if it is a dreamlike illusion, one should do their utmost to have a good dream, working to earn capital while learning to invest in the future. In the reality of testing grounds, one can verify and refine their wisdom.

Trading is the best practice: endure humiliation in losses, cultivate humility in profits, and reflect on the true self during reviews.
