平等看待一切事物，是一種非常重要的價值觀，它意味著我們應該尊重每個人、物體、文化和觀點，而不論它們的背景、種族、性別、信仰或其他任何因素。這種價值觀建立在尊重和包容的基礎上，可以讓人際關係更和諧，社會更加平等和公正。
不平等地看待別人，不僅傷害別人的感情，也會反過來傷害我們自己，而且還可能是更嚴重的傷害。因此，這是不懂得為自己利益著想的表現。當我們尊重彼此的差異並欣賞彼此獨特之處，那麼大家就能享有同等的機會和權利，人際關係就不會產生太多的衝突。
平等看待一切事物而不評斷好或壞，這是待人處事的最佳心態。如果經常評斷事物的好壞，就說明我們產生了偏見。這種無意識的行為總會引起爭端，因為主觀的看法很難統一。如果每個人都堅持自己的觀點，最終一切只能由權力來決定。
有一個基本的解決辦法：停止對事物的評斷，轉而觀察我們自己，留意自己的感受與事物的關係，也留意自己的行為對事物發展的影響。首先接受事物，不主觀地給它們貼上標籤。然後保持好奇心以及平靜的觀察，不要過早與記憶中的事物作比對，更不要過早下判斷。因為事情才剛剛開始，還會繼續發展，如果我們過早參與其中，事物的發展就會受我們的行為所影響。
我們的情緒也是一種事物，所以上述做法也適用。別把情緒稱為悲傷或快樂，而是讓它自由流動，感受它帶來的一切，領悟它的意義。這才是真正享受生命。窗外下著冷雨，獨自蜷縮在沙發上，喝著一杯熱咖啡。這究竟是悲傷還是快樂？如果我們繼續觀察，將會看到心靈的一個奇妙現象：除了情緒，我們的內在還有一個穩定的核心。這個核心是理性和意識，也就是我們真正的自己。
能夠平等地看待一切事物，說明我們的意識能夠良好地運作。我們知道平等就是讓一切事物享受它們的機會，讓它們自由發展並接受自然的回報。平等的本質，就是尊重大自然的規律，並包容萬物的特性，這包括我們自己的一切。
能夠包容萬物，我們就不會以自己的喜好作為判斷對錯的標準，也不會以主觀的價值標準來判斷善惡。客觀地看待事物，我們就能意識到哪些是自我的欲望，哪些是生命的真正利益。那麼，當別人滿足了我們的需求，我們就能心懷感激，並主動去滿足別人的需求，讓彼此產生深度的連結。

Treating all things equally
Treating all things equally is a very important value, which means we should respect every person, object, culture and point of view, regardless of their background, race, gender, beliefs or any other factors. This kind of value is based on respect and tolerance, which can make interpersonal relationships more harmonious and society more equal and just.
Treating others unequally not only hurts other people's feelings, but also causes others to hurt us in turn, and it may even be more serious harm. Therefore, this is a sign of not knowing how to consider one's own interests. When we respect each other's differences and appreciate each other's uniqueness, then everyone can enjoy equal opportunities and rights, and relationships will not create too much conflict.
Treating everything equally without judging good or bad is the best attitude for dealing with others. If we often judge things as good or bad, it means that we have biases. This unconscious behavior will always cause disputes because subjective opinions are difficult to reconcile. If everyone sticks to their own point of view, in the end everything can only be decided by power.
There is a basic solution: stop judging things, and instead observe ourselves, pay attention to the relationship between our feelings and things, and also pay attention to the impact of our actions on the development of things. Start by accepting things without subjectively labeling them. Then maintain curiosity and calm observation, and don't compare it with things in memory too early, let alone make premature judgments. Because things have just begun and will continue to develop, if we participate too early, the development of things will be affected by our behavior.
Our emotions are also things, so the above method is also applicable. Don't call emotions sad or happy, but let them flow freely, feel everything they bring, and understand their meaning. This is truly enjoying life. It was a cold rain outside the window, and I was curled up on the sofa alone, drinking a cup of hot coffee. Is this sad or happy? If we continue to observe, we will see a wonderful phenomenon of the mind: in addition to emotions, there is a stable core within us. This core is reason and consciousness, which is our true selves.
Being able to treat everything equally shows that our consciousness can function well. We know that equality means allowing everything to enjoy its opportunities, letting them develop freely, and receive the rewards of nature. The essence of equality is to respect the laws of nature and accommodate the characteristics of all things, including all of ourselves.
Being able to accommodate all things, we will not use our own preferences as the standard for judging right or wrong, nor will we judge good or evil based on subjective values standards. By looking at things objectively, we can realize which is our desire, and which is the real benefit of life. Then, when others meet our needs, we can be grateful, and take the initiative to meet others' needs, allowing each other to be deeply connected.
