The English version of 八風吹不動 is "Unmovable Eight Winds" which you can read here (link) as I can't simply copy and past it here. I got affected emotionally and spiritually, are due to I was weakened by the eight winds.
The "eight winds" (八風) are
Praise (稱) desire be admired and praised directly
Ridicule (譏) to be criticized and defamed directly
Honor (譽) desire admired and praised in one’s absence
Disgrace (毀) to be criticized and defamed in one’s absence
Gain (得) to obtain what one desires
Loss (失) to suffer loss
Pleasure (樂) to be happy in body and mind
Misery (苦) to suffer in body and mind
and they are interpersonal forces of the material world that drive and influence the hearts of men. It seemed like I have a lot to learn to be strong. I will move toward the Light.
