Liu Zhiyu's family education was very successful when he was young, because his parents were intellectuals and his father taught physics. In the eyes of many people, it is difficult to learn science. Many children give up thinking when they are very young, but Liu Zhiyu, on the contrary, is interested in all kinds of problems, especially mathematics. He won an important prize every time he participated in a math contest, and his talent made many people envy him. And when he was in high school, he got a place to walk to Peking University. His whole research is progressing smoothly. Even MIT opened the door for him, but he suddenly announced that he was no longer interested in mathematics.
When Liu Zhiyu was in college, he met a senior who often ate and chatted together. This senior belongs to the Buddhist community and often goes to the temple to volunteer. Before, Liu Zhiyu always thought that people around him didn't understand him, but after contacting Buddhism with his seniors, he seemed to be suddenly enlightened, and all the questions he couldn't figure out before were answered. Since then, he wanted to practice in a temple after graduating from college, so when he gave up MIT, his parents and teachers were very shocked. They don't support his choice. I hope he can think it over. Even though his parents were ill, he still insisted on becoming a monk.
Liu Zhiyu's idea was not a whim. After he came into contact with Buddhism in the university, he became obsessed with it. He thinks that learning mathematics can only change a person's fate and become a famous mathematician, while learning Buddhism can change others and free all beings from their own suffering. He persisted for ten years. He devoted himself to studying Buddhism in the temple. He is a very attentive person, so he has his own insistence on everything and his own views on Buddhism.
With the help of her mother, Liu Zhiyu passed the exam of psychological counselor. He hopes that he can help others, especially because he has studied Buddhism for many years. He hopes to practice the energy of Buddhism with his own practical actions. He hopes that more people can redeem his heart through Buddhism. He no longer insists on staying in the temple. He hopes to become a devout practitioner who travels around the world. Although his choice seems regrettable, his heart has been satisfied and happy for many years.
