Its purpose is to enable us to become more intelligent individuals and ultimately guide us on how to live well.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Eastern philosophy focuses on the individual or self and the individual&#8217;s role in society. It explores how we can achieve inner peace and our relationship with nature and the cosmos. Eastern philosophy has many branches. But as a whole, it gives us general and useful information on how to live <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/7-gunde-daha-iyi-bir-hayat-icin-yapabileceginiz-7-sey\/\" title=\"good life\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">a good life<\/a> based on these themes. These simple ideas have the potential to enlighten and enrich us when we are stuck or having a hard time because of problems in our lives. Here are 7 life lessons we learned from eastern philosophy that may still be useful to us:<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"6373365026\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>1) Life is full of pain and trouble<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-8293\/ztr2kh.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">This Buddhist sensibility may seem incredibly bleak, but this thought can start to seem strangely paradoxically comforting to us after a while. Whether we want to admit it or not, our lives are filled with constant and recurring pain and anxieties. By seeking happiness in material things, we may be trying to get away from this reality and forget it. This is quite common, especially in a modern age. However, failing to accept and face this reality can unintentionally increase our suffering.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"6373365026\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nText\">The sooner we realize this truth, the sooner we are prepared to address and understand our reality. Begin to understand the pain you are now facing and the pain you will inevitably face, and take action. Thus, you will understand the value of the times when you are happy. At the same time, it will provide you comfort in your difficult periods.<\/div>\n<p><amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"2778893467\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width=\"\"><\/p>\n<div overflow=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>2) Be humane<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-8293\/93etb4.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Confucianism teaches each other the importance of being human. We all endure the same being. Probably everyone has been heartbroken, grieved, or betrayed. We must be conscious of this fact. Showing compassion to someone in need will partially alleviate the suffering of those who are in pain. It will also help us maintain our moral character.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"6373365026\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Confucius believed that being humane towards each other is very critical for an ethical society and individual morality.

We also try to prevent certain things from happening. Our attempts to try and force it to go in vain and we wear ourselves out in the process. Instead of changing or preventing inevitability, sometimes it&#8217;s better to look ahead.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">This thought is prominent in Taoism, and Taoism emphasizes letting life and nature run their course. The ancient Chinese philosopher <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link \" href=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/lao-tzu-sozleri\/\" title=\"Lao Tzu\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">Lao Tzu<\/a> believed in the importance of being in harmony with nature and the universe. This is an essential part of Eastern philosophy.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">We must accept our place in the universe and stop resisting the inevitable forces that come our way. Only then can we have a calm mood.<\/div>\n<p><amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"2778893467\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width=\"\"><\/p>\n<div overflow=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>4) Life is in a state of constant change<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-8293\/nsoj65.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Our lives are always changing, in many different ways. We lose our job or get a new job offer, lose a friend, make new friendships, or get old. Knowing that the past is unchangeable and that our lives will go in different directions can cause sadness. We may regret past mistakes or opportunities we didn&#8217;t invest in.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Instead of despairing about these issues, we should gain a different perspective on them. Yes, our lives will continue to change rapidly. And that means our pain is not permanent.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">As the trees around us grow, plants die, and landscapes change, just as our lives are constantly evolving. However, this change prepares us for a future where the dark times in our lives will pass, and we can build better days.<\/div>\n<p><amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"2778893467\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width=\"\"><\/p>\n<div overflow=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>5) Our self is in a state of constant change<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-8293\/52aeua.jpeg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Our selves, like our lives, will always change. There is a lot of pressure in modern society to &#8220;discover who we are&#8221;. But the direction of our individual selves is constantly changing. Our dream job can be continuous improvement and discovery. Our ideal partner&#8217;s vision can change frequently. Finally, our political beliefs can change over time.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"6373365026\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Strict adherence to self-imposed or socially imposed restrictions frustrates us and gets us in trouble. Don&#8217;t be afraid to embrace your changing ideas and beliefs. This is a sign that your individual self is constantly evolving. Exploring such changes should be exciting and give you the freedom to choose what you want to do.<\/div>\n<p><amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"2778893467\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width=\"\"><\/p>\n<div overflow=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>6) Always go forward<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-8293\/d1ndme.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">Confucius reminds us of the importance of continuous progress. If you&#8217;re dealing with an obstacle in your life or struggling to reach a goal, it&#8217;s essential to keep moving in the right direction, even if your steps are small.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">If you&#8217;re getting into a stalemate, change something about your life actively but minimally or drastically. Sometimes making a change is all that is needed for your own well-being. Make sure you&#8217;re moving in the right direction to move forward.<\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1787826683754973\" data-ad-slot=\"6373365026\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"line nHR\">\n<hr>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">\n<h2>7) Get strength from your pain<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"nImage\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/images\/post\/user-8293\/0tczub.jpg\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">As Buddha said, life is full of suffering. There may be moments when we feel like our being is falling apart. This is one of the most important truths we need to be aware of, and being aware of this fact is part of how we deal with it.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">We must try not to forget, hide, or object to our pain and failures. Instead, we must recognize them, accept them, and learn from them. As a result, when we are broken or damaged again in the future, we will be better prepared to rebuild our lives.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText\">We all get hurt sometimes, and somehow we struggle with it. We can all be healed and repaired. It is important not to get angry about what has happened to us and not neglect the reality of the difficulties. This will only leave our wounds open and intensify the pain we feel.<\/div>\n<div class=\"line nText \">If you are offended by a painful event or betrayal, you will be hopeless for a while. Yet, despite our anger and frustration resulting from these events, we must accept, take lessons, and learn to forgive no matter how difficult it might be. Maybe then, we can sew our lives back with stronger stitches than before.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eastern philosophy is not different from other philosophical teachings in terms of its general purpose.
