孝父母
身 Body care - I should be ready to take care of them - I have fear what they may need. This is wrong. They did not fear taking care of me. Remember NCH parents. Mother picking up after child making a mess. - Making sure they have enough money? - Make sure dad goes to his appointments and takes the medications he is supposed to take 心 Mental wellness - They shouldn’t need to worry about me - I should call them more - I shouldn’t be annoyed when they try to check in on me - 什麼事情好好講, try to understand where parents are coming from. 靈 Direction in life - Tearful recently when going thru old childhood things and remembering all the effort they put forth in my growth - Christian Jae Kang mother selling sexy clothes - My own father: goals in life - Mother: attachments, 有些看不開的地方, help her to let go - I am certainly not enlightened yet. But sometimes we all see things in others that they have trouble seeing in ourselves. So in the people we care about the most, we owe them that feedback that can help them improve.
重師尊
- 飲水思源 - Same attitude toward Buddhist monk - Same attitude toward Catholic pope - Metaphor: residency training - One day, you will not have your teacher to guide you. Will you be ready?
