Features: With one heart facing the bustling world, the sounds of wind and rain, the sounds of reading, the affairs of home, country, and the world, it's inevitable to stir up waves in the heart. There may also be turmoil in the chest, making the heart feel sorrowful, troubled, and painful. The tragedies of life and the hardships of the human journey then follow one after another. If one cannot face them with equanimity and constantly feel troubled, how can there be happiness and joy. It is impossible to completely eliminate the grandeur of the troubled heart; those human tragedies and comedies must always unfold, and the drums for opening the curtain cannot be canceled. The only thing one can do is to restrain the heart that watches and listens to the drama, and then one can act with tranquility, remain unchanging in the face of change, take suffering as joy, and find it easy to embrace poverty with contentment and take the world upon oneself. This book innovates by presenting eight "confused classics" or "eight bowls of confused porridge," also known as "eight treasures of worldly wisdom," in sixty-four lessons, covering emotional intelligence confusion, intellectual confusion, health confusion, romantic confusion, financial confusion, career confusion, and faith confusion, bringing endless benefits to the reader.
