The standards of a pure and beautiful soul
Xue Feng
Perhaps you have never lived in the kingdom of heaven, so you have no idea what it is like. Or maybe you once lived in heaven, but you have completely forgotten the life scenes of heaven due to a few cycles of transmigration. This does not matter; we still have ways to peep at the things in the kingdom of heaven. First of all, we must realize that the kingdom of heaven is a joyful, relatively free place in which there is no worries about food, clothes, living, transportation or birth, death, illness and old age; no interpersonal fight or attack; in which everyone get along with each other; no one would bully you, oppress you, hurt you or torture you.
Well, such a beautiful place! But how can we achieve that? By having a pure and beautiful mind. When everyone’s mind is pure and beautiful, the place they live in is heaven! When we look back and think of the many people we met, some people brought us delight and joy, happiness and freedom which indicated that their souls were pure and fair; whereas, other people brought us distress and trouble, anxiety and pain which mean their souls were ugly.
The fact is as clean as a piece of white paper. Only those who have pure and beautiful minds can go to the kingdom of heaven. Only when we stay together with people who have pure and beautiful minds can we enjoy the blessing of the kingdom of heaven.
Well, how to recognize whether a person's mind is pure and beautiful? Please refer to the following standards.
