How Your Determined Destiny is Shaped According to Face Reading
A user recently asked how to identify if someone leads a life filled with toil. In physiognomy, this is surprisingly straightforward. Those who are often anxious typically exhibit these signs: a dull, sallow complexion with stagnant blood and energy, oily skin that's prone to acne and blemishes, red ears, eyes that appear unclear and dull with yellowish veins, a tendency to look downward, droopy eyelids, and a vacant expression when gazing straight ahead.
These features suggest a life inevitably marked by toil, with blocked energy and challenging fortunes. Why does this happen? How is it formed, and how can it be changed? This article seeks to explore the core of this fate.
A scientist once remarked he couldn’t understand why people are so preoccupied with life outside of work. Despite working over twelve hours a day and being busier than most, he spends less than ten minutes organizing his daily tasks, jotting down essentials, and leaves the rest of his time for reflection, avoiding unnecessary worry.
In truth, worrying is not inherently part of one's destiny. Although some people show signs of toil from birth, this can be managed. Worrying arises from two sources: genetic predisposition and the influence of one's upbringing. In the end, worrying is not fate; it's a habit.
Those prone to worry often have a habit of wanting to control every detail, fearing imperfection. They believe that worrying will lead to a perfect and improved life. However, they don't realize that no matter how much they worry, life and fate do not improve as a result. Chronic worriers expend significant mental energy, resulting in blocked energy, poor skin condition, and dull, thinning hair. Even when fortune arrives, those who toil find its benefits limited, as their energy is already rapidly depleting. When good fortune comes, they may feel slightly better, but they still struggle to hold onto their gains.
This is because fortune acts as an amplifier, enhancing one's existing energy. If someone's energy is insufficient, even the greatest amplification has limited effect. Therefore, for those who worry and toil, achieving wealth or prosperity is challenging.
From a Buddhist perspective, worrying is entirely meaningless, particularly when it concerns oneself and one's family. No matter how much you worry, you cannot control everything. From one standpoint, those who worry excessively display two traits: limited wisdom and short-sightedness. Buddhism teaches that when you die, you can't control your children or grandchildren, nor can you take a single penny with you. So what’s the point of worrying?
Worrying and managing are different. Worrying is characterized by feeling that no amount of planning is sufficient. Once this habit forms, your life becomes essentially fixed. Remember, in the West as early as the 1970s, there was a movement toward scientifically organizing life. While this approach didn’t gain much traction in the West, it is crucial for many in China today, especially those lacking wisdom and foresight.
Chinese people often say they have toiled their whole lives, but in reality, much time and life are wasted on pointless worries. The only goal is to provide themselves comfort and justification, thinking this honors their family and future generations. However, family and descendants don’t want you to worry; excessive worrying can even have negative impacts. Thus, those who habitually worry for their family are essentially quite selfish, although laboring for the sake of all beings is a different matter.
