Recently, I visited a calligraphy and painting exhibition called "Guanshan Cultural Context" at the Municipal Exhibition Hall, and I was filled with emotions.
Guanshan is a famous cultural mountain. The true cultural value of Guanshan can only be revealed by solving the mystery of the Guanshan stone chamber. It is precisely because of the Guanshan Stone Chamber that we can clearly see the glorious history of Guanshan 2,500 years ago. It can also be said that Guanshan, which was glorious 2,500 years ago, is slowly closing the curtain of its glory for more than 2,500 years. With the end of the Warring States Period, the Zhou Dynasty disappeared, and all the historical documents in the Guanshan Stone Chamber were lost by the rebellion of the Prince Dynasty. Also lost was the Jiuding, which symbolized the Kyushu of China. Even the First Emperor of Qin sent a large army to salvage the Jiuding from the Sishui River, but there was no news of it, and history gradually fell silent as the documents were scattered.
Guanshan is definitely a famous mountain in Tibet. The real historical value of Guanshan is that it once collected the historical documents that the country has kept secretly among the emperors since ancient times. It can be said that when I was in charge of keeping the history of the Tibetan Chamber, he could read those historical documents at will, and judging from the five thousand years of civilization history, these documents can only be read by ancient emperors, and they are important weapons of the country. Never show it to others casually. It was precisely because of this that I realized that the documents and national treasures in the stone chamber could be destroyed at any time. The subsequent rebellion of the Prince Dynasty was able to take away almost all the documents and Jiuding, and all of them were lost, which proved that Lao Tzu's worries were by no means groundless.
Guanshan must be the ancestor of Wenfeng. The very strange thing is that Confucius compiled the Six Classics. In terms of Confucius' status at that time, it was extremely low and could not be said to be a nobleman at all. The first time he met Lao Tzu was through his student Nangong Jingshu. Nangong Jingshu is a son of a noble of the Lu State. Nangong communicated with the Lu State King and obtained the Lu State King's consent, and sent a car and people to take them to see Lao Tzu. In fact, Confucius met Laozi, and the even greater fact is that the historical documents "Poems", "Books", "Li", "Music", "Yi" and "Spring and Autumn" hidden in the stone chamber were in the hands of Confucius and were sorted out by him. The first thing Confucius sorted out was to hide the Six Classics back in the stone room, but Laozi refused. This was the reason why Confucius wanted to spread the teachings of the ancient texts Six Classics among the people.
What is certain is that the place where Buzi Xia Xihe taught was in Guanshan, as evidenced by the historical relic "Fengzhou Ladle Drink" seen by Li Daoyuan a thousand years later. That stone is a national treasure, definitely a work from the Spring and Autumn Period. Otherwise, it is not enough to explain the cultural context of Guanshan Academy, the existence of the huge paper hole with the word "Jingxi", and the literati of the past dynasties reciting poems, composing poems, and lingering in Guanshan. It is not enough to explain the stone tablet inlaid by Sun Yu in the main hall of Chonggu Guanshan Academy: "The beauty of Guanshan is the ancestor of Wenfeng. During the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, there were rooms surrounded by blocks. Pi Zhen came to promise not to peel off the wind and rain. May Dexing Hall, "I will live forever with the mountain."
Laozi is a Taoist sage, and Confucius is a Confucian sage. Confucius' meeting with Lao Tzu was an epoch-making historical event. Zhu Xi said: If heaven does not give birth to Zhongni, eternity will be like a long night. This evaluation can only be attributed to the fact that Confucius compiled and disseminated all the Six Classics documents entrusted to him by Laozi to his three thousand disciples and seventy-two sages, and spread them throughout the world through Confucian disciples and among the people, making these historical documents new again. Only with renewed vitality can a cultural world be truly realized.
Perhaps inertia will constrain our thinking, but can’t the Guanshan Stone Chamber in front of us, the cultural relics all over the mountains and the conclusive historical documents inspire a little bit of cultural confidence? As the saying goes: The number of articles in the world is determined by two things, and the number among the two things is determined by peace. Pingding is also a country famous for its literature. It can be seen that the ancients were much more confident in their understanding of Pingding and the positioning of Guanshan than we are.
I really hope to study Guanshan carefully, just like these painters, using their own pens to paint it one by one. Paint the Guanshan Stone Chamber well, paint the Guanshan Academy well, paint the Confucius Cave well, paint the Ming Bangfang well, paint every platform of Sanlei Mountain well, and paint Fengzhou Ladle Drinking Well. Just like these calligraphers, they have written down so many Guanshan poems and essays in real cursive and seal scripts, carved them into tablets, carved them into seals, and carved them into the hearts of more people. Yang Wenwen, Zhao Bingwen, Yuan Haowen, Yu Ji, Lu Sicheng, Qiao Yu, Fu Shan, Zhang Mu, Shi Pingmei, etc. There are so many famous historical and cultural celebrities, making Guanshan a veritable historical and cultural treasure house.
Just like these photographers, they take out their "guns and cannons", fly in the sky, walk on the ground, take pictures of Guanshan to the extreme in all four seasons, and promote Guanshan, a famous cultural mountain, to the world of culture. The truth.
I have a dream, that is, Guanshan has a long-lasting cultural heritage.
