不回應也是一種解決問題的模式

If you want to attain peace. Live peacefully

一個木匠收了工回家。他走後，一條毒蛇進入了他的工作室。那條蛇餓了，希望能在裡面找到晚餐。它從一端滑到另一端。它撞上了斧頭，受到了輕傷。在憤怒和報復中，蛇全力咬住了斧頭。蛇咬金屬斧有什麼作用？相反，蛇的嘴開始流血。

出於狂怒和傲慢，這條蛇盡力想勒死金屬斧頭 - 但是，相反的，使它更痛苦。第二天，木匠開了工作室。他發現那條纏在斧頭上的蛇已死亡。

它是由於自身的憤怒和抱負面對這些後果。有時，當我們生氣時，我們會嘗試對他人造成傷害。但是隨著時間的流逝，我們意識到自己對自己造成了更多傷害。我們沒有必要對所有事情做出反應。退後一步，問自己是否真的值得回應。

Angry Snake :

A carpenter went home after shutting down his workshop. When he was gone, a poisonous snake entered his workshop. The snake was hungry and hoped to find its supper lurking somewhere within. It slithered from one end to another. Finally it bumped into an axe and got very slightly injured. In angry and revenge, the snake bit the snake with full force. What could a snake’s bite do to the metallic axe? Instead the snake’s mouth started bleeding.

Out of fury and arrogance, the snake tried its best to strangle and kill the metallic axe - The object that was causing it the pain by wrapping itself around the axe. The next day the carpenter opened the workshop. He found the dead snake wrapped around the blades of the axe. Here the snake did not die because of someone’s fault.

But it faced these consequences merely because of its own anger and wrath. Sometimes when angry, we try to cause harm to others. But as time passes by, we realize that we caused more harm to ourselves. It is not necessary that we react to everything. Step back and ask ourselves if the matter is really worth responding to.
