Technology is only the most superficial aspect. The same technology, at a purely technical level, when understood properly by different people, can be mastered without any issue. However, the key lies in its application, which creates a significant difference.
The market is full of endless temptations and traps, reflecting human greed and fear. If you stay purely at the technical level, you will at most be a trading machine. Even if you can get some returns in the market, these returns come at the cost of your life. No amount of return can compensate for the expenditure of life. Life, only life itself can repay, and life is meant to understand life, not for the so-called returns that cannot be taken with you in life or death. However, some people think highly of themselves, believing that staying away from money and the market is the so-called 'Dao.' These people are pathetic and useless; their so-called 'Dao' is nothing but the result of self-deception. The Dao is not far from people; how could it be contrary to the market? Human greed, fear, temptations, and traps in the market are not far from the Dao. In contemporary society, those who do not understand the capital market are not qualified to survive. Being stuck in the capital market can only be a mechanical existence. Contemporary society, capitalist society, no matter how much it can be criticized, constitutes the only realistic existence. Of course, you can resist this existence, but all resistance will eventually become capitalistic, just like the game of moral and power capital compared to the game of capital. Understanding and participating in the capital market is not only to catch the pie in the sky but also because this capital and this capital market are the fate of humanity. All human greed, anger, delusion, doubt, and arrogance gather here. If you do not find freedom here, what freedom is there to talk about? Without liberation here, what liberation is there to talk about? Freedom is not escape, and liberation is not avoidance. Only in the world of five impurities can there be great freedom and great liberation. Only in the most impure places of this impure world can there be great freedom and great liberation. Of course, politics is the most impure place in this impure world. Those who fail in politics are not qualified to talk about freedom and liberation. The same applies to debauchery. Those who remain unmoved in debauchery have no true freedom and liberation. Those who come out of the mud unstained are merely self-deceivers. Who says the mud is dirty? What harm does the staining do? True freedom and liberation are being free in unfreedom and liberated in unliberation. Entering the mud and staining it, leaving the mud and staining it, there is no place without mud, and no place where the mud does not stain.
In the investment market, ultimately, it is about cultivation, character, and insight. Merely focusing on skills will always make you a craftsman, never a true master.
In ancient times, there was the practice of seven-day Zen meditation. In modern society, finding seven days for such practice is an extreme luxury. However, every week, for an hour, if you can break away from all constraints and crowds, alone in a room, on a mountain, by a river, under the stars, in the echoes of the countryside, opening eyes that do not see, ears that do not hear, overlooking and listening to the world. In truth, where isn't a room, mountain, river, starry sky, or wild countryside? Where are the constraints that need breaking away?
In the bloody jaws of capital, politics, debauchery, greed, and fear is the place of true freedom and liberation. Of course, if you lack such insight, you may first need your room, mountain, river, starry sky, and countryside. But ultimately, you have to stain and immerse in this impure world to achieve true freedom and liberation. Without this, there is no true freedom and liberation.
