●Ancient text about lotus:
◇Fuchsia
[Late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty] Li Yu
There are many interesting things about Lotus, so please describe them.
The flowers are in season, and they only bloom for a few days. Before and after this, it is all a matter of autumn. This is not the case with hibiscus: since the day when the lotus emerged from the water, it has been embellished with green waves; as soon as its stems and leaves are born, they will rise higher and brighter as the sun rises. When there is wind, it is swaying, but when there is no wind, it is also graceful. I enjoy the infinite ease before the flowers bloom. As soon as the lotus blossoms become flowers, they are delicate and beautiful, and then one after another, from summer to autumn, this is a matter of responsibility for flowers, and it is also a matter of people's due. When the flower has withered, it can also be used to accuse the owner of the crime. It has a pod under the compound pedicle, which is strong in the pod. The pavilions are independent, just like unopened flowers, standing side by side with the green leaves, so that the white dew does not turn into frost and it can do things endlessly. This is all to say that it is eye-catching.
But if you smell it, you can smell the fragrance of lotus leaves and the fragrance of lotus flowers; you can avoid the heat and the heat will recede, you can enjoy the coolness and the coolness will drive away the life.
When it comes to the mouth, the lotus seeds and lotus roots are eaten side by side, touching each other's teeth and cheeks.
Only the leaves have been lost in the frost, and they are scattered and embarrassing, as if they are discarded. They are picked and hidden, and they are used to wrap things for many years.
There is nothing like a hibiscus that is not suitable for the eyes and ears to see at any moment, and there is nothing that is not prepared for home use. Is there any greater benefit to planting crops than to have the essence of five grains but not their names, and to have the advantages of a hundred flowers but eliminate their shortcomings?
◇The Theory of Love and Lotus
[Northern Song Dynasty] Zhou Dunyi
The flowers of land and water are very lovely. Tao Yuanming of Jin Dynasty only loved chrysanthemums. Since Li Tang, people all over the world love peonies. I only love the lotus that emerges from the mud but is not stained, touches the clear ripples without being demonic (it welcomes the scorching sun without being afraid, emerges from the mud without being stained), is straight from the middle to the outside, does not creep or branch, has a fragrance that is far away and clear, and is a pure plant. You can watch it from a distance but don’t play with it!
I say chrysanthemum, the flower that represents seclusion; peony, the flower that represents wealth; lotus, the flower that represents the gentleman. Alas! The love of chrysanthemum is rarely heard of after Tao. Who can share the love of the lotus? The love of peony is suitable for everyone.
●Poems about lotus
◇Lotus Picking Song
[Southern Dynasty·Liang] Liu Xiaowei
Golden paddle magnolia boat, drama Jiangnan lotus. Lotus fragrance spreads across the Pudu River, and lotus leaves fill the river.
The house is easy to get, and the handle is curved. When the flowers are dew, the hair is wet, and the wind stems are blowing.
◇If you break the lotus, you will receive a gift
[Tang Dynasty] Li Bai
I wade in the river and play in the autumn water, loving the fresh red lotus. If you climb the lotus and play with its beads, the ripples will not become round.
The beauty is in the colorful clouds, and I want to give it to the distant sky. There is no reason to miss lovesickness, and look forward to the cool breeze with regret.
◇Small Pond
[Song Dynasty] Yang Wanli
The spring silently cherishes the trickle, and the shade of the trees makes the water gentle. The little lotus has just revealed its sharp corners, and a dragonfly has already stood on it.
◇Ci·Lotus Mei
[Song Dynasty·Su Shi]
Xia Bao is charged green, naturally and uniquely romantic. Under the heavy green cover, Qianjiao shines on the water, so red and white.
Every time I look at the bright moon and the clear breeze, I am very low and silent. The evil spirits are powerless and must be let go. The fragrance lives in the depths, look at the color. 2. Classical Chinese essays about lotus
> █ Zhou Dunyi Original text The flowers of land and water are very lovely.
Tao Yuanming of the Jin Dynasty only loved chrysanthemums; since the Li and Tang Dynasties, everyone in the world has loved peonies; I only loved the lotus which emerges from the mud but is not stained; , the fragrance becomes clearer from a distance, and the pavilions and pavilions are clean and planted, you can look at them from a distance but don't play with them. I say chrysanthemum, the hermit flower; peony, the precious flower; lotus, the noble flower.
Oops! The love of chrysanthemums is rarely heard of after Tao; the love of lotus, who can share it? The love of peony is suitable for everyone! Translation: There are many people who like the plants and flowers on water or land. Tao Yuanming of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was partial to chrysanthemums; since the Li and Tang dynasties, people in the world have particularly liked peonies; but I only like the nobility of the lotus, which comes from the mud and is not contaminated with dirt. After being washed with clear water, it appears pure but not charming.
It has a clear heart and a straight appearance, unlike vines spreading everywhere or branches crisscrossing everywhere. The aroma is pure and fragrant from a distance, and it is as graceful as a beautiful woman standing on the water. It can only be appreciated from a distance and cannot be played with wantonly.
I liken the chrysanthemum to a reclusive person among the flowers. Peony is the symbol of wealth among flowers.
And what about the lotus? He is a gentleman among flowers. Alas! (Interjection, used as a particle here to emphasize the tone) People who love chrysanthemums are rarely heard of after Tao Yuanming's death.
How many people who love lotus have the same love as me? (How many people are there?) As for those who love peonies, it is suitable for most people. (Ye Yiqing) Appreciation In the fourth year of Song Xining (AD 1071), the famous Neo-Confucian Zhou Dunyi came to Xingzi to serve as the military commander of Nankang.
Zhou Dunyi was an upright, indifferent man, and loved lotus all his life. After Zhou Dunyi came to Xingzi, he dug a pond on the east side of the military office and planted lotus flowers in it.
When Zhou Dunyi came to Xingzi, he was already in his twilight years (55 years old) and ill. Therefore, after dinner, he would either be alone or invite friends from his staff to enjoy flowers and drink tea by the pool. , and wrote a popular prose "Ai Lian Shuo". Although "Ai Lian Shuo" is short, every word is exquisite, and it has always been recited by people.
A year later, Zhou Dunyi resigned due to old age and frailty, and settled down to build a church at the northwest foot of Mount Lu to give lectures. The lotus pond and the "Love of the Lotus" he left behind have always been cherished by those who came after him.
In the sixth year of Chunxi (1179 AD), Zhu Xi was transferred to Nankang Zhijun. Full of admiration for Zhou Dunyi, he rebuilt the Ailian Pond and built the Ailian Hall. He also obtained Zhou Dunyi's "Ailian Hall" from Zhou Zhiqing, Zhou's great-grandson. I asked someone to carve the ink mark of "Ai Lian Shuo" on a stone and place it by the pool. Zhu Xi wrote a poem: Hearing the Tao moved his roots by the jade well, and the flowers bloomed for ten miles. The moon was bright and cold, and no one saw it. It only brought joy to the teacher.
Appreciating "The Theory of Love of the Lotus", the key point is "to emerge from the silt but not stained, to wash the clear lotus without being evil", which is the central theme of the whole text. The ancients generally used objects to express their feelings when writing articles. The same sentence has two meanings, one metaphorical and one expressing feelings.
Similarly, "come out of the mud and become dyed, wash the lotus to make it clear but not evil" also has a second layer of lyrical meaning. It is a metaphor that the author himself has the noble character of "coming out of the mud but not stained, washing the clear lotus without being evil".
In fact, what he means is: the officialdom is dark, and maintaining a noble character in the officialdom is as difficult as a lotus emerging from the mud without being stained. This is also a summary of his experience as an official, because he does not want to join the others.
And "to wash the lotus without being evil" is just a good wish of the author. If you often walk by the river, how can you avoid getting your shoes wet? Therefore, among hundreds of flowers, the lotus alone can do this, which is extremely valuable.
This is also the author's sigh, because in the big environment, it is impossible for him to be alone, except to escape and stay away. Or maybe he is as conscientious as he is in guarding his own ambitions.
Zhou Dunyi's "Theory of Love of Lotus" begins with "There are many lovely flowers among water and land vegetation". The opening chapter is deep and atmospheric, which not only points out that the lotus in "The Theory of Love and Lotus" is also a flower of land and water, but also points out that the loveliness of lotus is just one of the "very beautiful" ones.
This laid the logical foreshadowing for his subsequent "I alone love the lotus". With such an opening, the writing is extraordinary and eye-catching.
Next, Zhou Dunyi did not get entangled in Shenfan, but just shortened the scene and said "Tao Yuanming of Jin Dynasty only loved chrysanthemums", which made the meaning of the title more clear. Tao Yuanming could love chrysanthemums and express his feelings, why can't I only love lotus flowers? Woolen cloth? The next sentence, "Since the Li and Tang Dynasties, people have loved peonies very much." It seems like a repetition, but it actually deepens the meaning. Moreover, the inclusion of this sentence in the text makes the sense of contrast stronger, paving the way for the nobility of the lotus. The general idea is that Zhou Dunyi's personal love for lotus is different from that of Jin Tao Yuanming's love for chrysanthemums. In order to maintain his nobility, he would rather live in Nanshan forever.
He wants to be a gentleman who emerges from the mire and is untainted in the world. This mentality of maintaining innocence in a dirty world and seeking truth alone is fundamentally different in ideological realm from the mentality of following the herd where everyone admires wealth (peony).
This is the best pavement for what Ailian said is to express "coming out of the silt but not stained". Zhou Dunyi went directly to the topic in the next sentence: "I only love the lotus when it comes out of the mud but is not stained; when I wash the lotus, it is not demonic; the middle is straight to the outside; it can be seen from a distance but not to play with." The heart is a metaphor for the will of the lotus, which can be said to be integrated in one go. It seems to be an intuitive description of the lotus, but in fact, every word and sentence uses the appearance of the lotus to express one's heart.
The sophistication of this writing is truly astonishing. It can be said that readers throughout the article have no chance to breathe.
The language is otherworldly, but the aftertaste is lasting and meaningful, and the more you taste it, the more delicious it becomes. At the end of the chapter, Zhou Dunyi first uses flowers as a metaphor to let the characteristics of flowers be compared to people. Although the flowers are plain, the metaphor is relevant and gives people a unique taste when reading.
"I say chrysanthemum, the flower that represents the reclusive person; the peony, the flower that represents wealth and honor; the lotus, the flower that represents the gentleman." This plain sentence follows the previous stanza: "Tao Yuanming of the Jin Dynasty only loved chrysanthemums; since Li and Tang Dynasties, the world has loved peonies; I only loved lotus..." It can be said that it is integrated without any trace.
What’s more important is that by using flowers as metaphors, Tao Yuanming’s escape from the world and the mentality of everyone pursuing glory and wealth are vividly described without a single word of direct accusation. Through this comparison, Zhou Dunyi likened himself to a gentleman.
It is better for a gentleman to do things difficult than to hide from the world. From this point of view, Zhou Dunyi is somewhat self-admiring.
However, Zhou Dunyi also had some self-awareness, and then he sighed deeply, "The love of chrysanthemums is rarely heard of after Tao; who can share the love of lotus? The love of peonies is suitable for everyone." . Yes, in this world of mortals, how many people can escape from the world in order to seek truth? Jin had Tao Yuanming, but now I haven't heard of anyone else doing this.
Or like me, in the dust. 3. The meaning of he in ancient Chinese
