"Romantic Love, Late Tang Poetry in Wei and Jin Dynasties." This is a poem by Wakayama, a Japanese poet. Different from the stereotype of the Han Dynasty, the bold and unrestrained agitation of the Three Kingdoms, the grand opening of the Tang Dynasty, and the elegance and gracefulness of the Song Dynasty, the figures in Wei and Jin Dynasties were famous for their bold and unrestrained and broad-minded vision, which was the spiritual fashion and aesthetic pursuit of the whole society at that time, and thus Wei and Jin Dynasties became the most controversial era in China history.
? -Excerpted from Wei
From Wei and Jin dynasties to modern times, a thousand years have passed!
Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties (220-589), also known as the Three Kingdoms, Two Jin Dynasties and Sixteen Southern Dynasties, was an era in which there was only one unified period (Western Jin Dynasty) in China's history for 350 years, and other dynasties changed rapidly and many countries coexisted.
With the frequent changes of dynasties, many literati began to form a style of natural glitz without the fatigue of loyalty to the monarch;
Warlords are separated, royalty and nobles kill each other, history is impermanent, and life is like a dream. "When drinking songs, life geometry? For example, Chaolu is much more difficult to go to Japan. " They liberated themselves from Confucianism and began to think more deeply about the meaning and value of life.
This is a turbulent era, but also an era of personality liberation;
This is the most wonderful era in China's history, an era of going upstream but connecting the past with the future.
In this controversial era, there are also many historical celebrities, such as Cao Shi and his son, seven sons of Jian 'an, seven sages of bamboo forest, Wang Xiejia (Wang Dao and Xie An), Tao Yuanming, famous calligrapher Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi.
Sun Deng, an obscure hermit in this era, lived in Sumen Mountain.
Many people may not know Sumen Mountain. Let's take a look at Sumen Mountain first.
Sumen Mountain, a branch of Taihang Mountain, is located in Bai Quan Scenic Area, Bai Quan Town, huixian city, Xinxiang City, Henan Province, with an altitude of only1.84m. It complements the Bai Quan Lake at the foot and is an elegant landscape scenic spot.
The ancients cut wood for firewood and grass for Sue. There is a mountain on the west side of Sumen Mountain, called Phoenix Mountain. The two mountains are opposite like doors, and the door that closes is "the door of the mountain is also closed". Because there are hundreds of springs in front of the mountain, it is also called Baimen Mountain.
Sun Deng, who lived from 220 to 280 A.D., is known as "Mr. Su Men" and is a master of Taoism.
This hermit in Wei and Jin Dynasties lived in seclusion and thought in Sumen Mountain, which made him a legendary life.
Why write Sun Deng? First, his seclusion belongs to my hometown. Second, according to historical records, Sun Deng lived alone all his life, weaving grass to make clothes in summer, having long hair in winter, and often playing the piano to amuse himself. He is gentle and never loses his temper. It is said that someone deliberately played a trick on him and threw him into the water to see him angry, but Mr. Sun Deng climbed out of the water and just laughed!
He is like a lone ranger, taking heaven and earth as his home and talking to the sun and the moon. I have been thinking about how strong my heart and belief can be in order to complete my thinking and love for life in a person's loneliness.
Two famous events in Mr Sun Deng's life made him less famous. First, Ruan Ji, one of the famous "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest", completed their life thinking dialogue with a roar and made Ruan Ji's famous work "Adults Turn to Mr."; Second, Ji Kang, the spiritual leader of "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest", was a classmate of Sun Deng for three years, Sun Deng sent a farewell letter to Ji Kang, and Ji Kang's feeling that "Liu Xiahui is ashamed and Sun Deng is ashamed" in "Poems on Huai". The visit of two famous people, Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest, added more legendary colors to Sun Deng's legendary life.
Liu Bei said, "I want to meet Sun Deng at Sumen Mountain and die with him. It's not appropriate to climb the mountain, so I quit because of the sentry. Halfway up the mountain in the middle of the ridge, I heard the voice of husband and wife. It sounded like a rocky valley, and that was the roar of boarding. Biography of Ruan Ji in the Book of Jin
Ruan Ji visited Sun Deng in Sumenshan and tried to discuss historical and philosophical issues with Mr. Sun, but Mr. Sun never responded. Ruan Ji got up and roared away and walked halfway up the mountain. Suddenly, he heard a hundred birds singing in the valley, as long as nature. It was Mr. Sun Deng's howl!
Ruan Ji and Sun Deng, two hermits, completed this dialogue about history and philosophy with their respective whistles.
Ruan Ji had an epiphany after listening to Sun Deng's howl. He hurried down the mountain and wrote the famous biography of Mr. Adult.
I'm an old man, and I don't know my last name. Emperor Chen Tian first appeared in Shennong and Huangdi. I don't know how many years. Taste Sumen Mountain and idle away after death. Nourishing and prolonging life, natural Guang Qi. It depends on what Yao Shun is doing, if it is in their hands. Take Wan Li as a step and Chitose as one. I can't go, I can't live anywhere, but I can't live on the avenue. Mr. Wang takes adaptability as his home and the world as his home. He is doomed to decline, but he lives alone. I think I can let nature take its course, so I silently explore morality, which is different from the world. Self-righteous people are not. Ignorant people blame them and don't know that their changes are subtle. And Mr. Wang is not a miracle but an easy task.
Mr. Adult is a venerable old man. I don't know his last name. He talked about the beginning of heaven and earth and made clear the past of Shennong and Huangdi. I don't know Mr. Wang's age. He lives in seclusion in Sumen Mountain, so the world says that Mr. Wang is carefree. Mr cultivate one's self-cultivation, prolong life, natural Guang Qi. He regards Wan Li as a step and the Millennium as a morning. He has no destination to travel and no fixed residence. He is neutral, takes heaven and earth as his home, and silently explores the essence of the avenue. He is independent of the world. He is different from worldly behavior. People who don't know him think he is strange, because they don't know his change and his magical power, but Mr. Wang hasn't changed his behavior because of people's criticism.
Ruan Ji's writing about Mr. Sun Deng is actually writing about himself. At that time, Sun Deng, Ruan Ji, Ji Kang and other figures, represented by the Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest, were all proud and lonely, lonely and incomprehensible, unable to truly express their loneliness. They drink in seclusion, they play the piano for a long time, and defend their pride and helplessness with strangeness in the eyes of the world.
Ji Kang, another famous musician, writer and thinker in the history of the Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest, also visited Sun Deng in Sumenshan and was with Mr. Sun for three years. However, Mr Sun Deng remained silent. When he left, Ji Kang asked regretfully, "Is your husband speechless?" Sun Deng was finally moved by Ji Kang's piety and said slowly: "There is light in the fire, and the fruit lies in use; People's innate talent is just useless. The fruit lies in using it. Therefore, the use of light cares about the reward, so it keeps its glory, and the use only cares about knowing its truth, so it is endless all year round. " I'm a little ignorant now, and it's hard to be immune to the world.
Fire is born with light, but it is important to use it. People are born with talent, but the key is to use talent, so using light is to let it play the role of light, and firewood can last for a long time. Only by identifying real talents can their years be saved. Although you are talented now, you have little knowledge, and you are afraid of being mistaken in today's world.
Ji Kang is 7 feet 8 inches tall and charming. He is a rare handsome man in ancient times. People who have seen Ji Kang sigh: Mix Su Su, hearty. Ji Kang is not only handsome, but also proficient in literature, metaphysics and music. Ji Kang is honest and frank, "alienated from interests and open-minded", but there is also a side of "just sick intestines, outspoken and prone to problems". It is precisely because of this personality characteristic that Ji Kang was finally killed.
Ji Kang wrote sad poems at the end of his life, and wrote family instructions to warn his son Ji Shao. Ji Kang expressed his feelings in Poems for the Past, "I used to be ashamed of Liu Xia, but now I am ashamed of Sun Deng".
On the day of execution, Xiyang was in the sky and his figure was on the ground. Ji Kang looked at the shadow of the sun on the execution ground, asked his brother Ji for a piano, and calmly played a song "Guangling San". After that, he sighed: Yuan Xiaoni wanted to learn Guangling San from me, but I never wanted to teach it. Guangling San is unique now! Then Ji Kang was executed in the eastern city of Luoyang at the age of forty.
Apart from these two famous events and some simple records in history, we have no more information about Mr. Sun Deng, but these simple information and events are enough for us to see his shining "brilliance". To the outside world, Mr. Sun Deng is as calm as water, not anxious or annoyed, but there seems to be a fire burning in his heart. He has an insight into current affairs, he sees through human nature, he sticks to his inner insistence on being independent of heaven and earth and expresses his love for life! He is more like an orchid in an empty valley, still emitting its fragrance in the deep forest that no one appreciates. Shining with the light of his life.
Seclusion is an escape and a respect for the heart. In Sumen Mountain, Mr. Sun Deng thinks, walks, sighs, plays stringed instruments or whistles!
He put his lonely soul in music and whistling.
He paid tribute to life in his own way.
Taoism regards Sun Deng as Sun Zhenren or Sun Zhenren's mentor, and designates the third day of the first lunar month as Christmas Day in Sun Deng. Today, some Taoist associations in Taiwan Province Province still offer sacrifices on that day, which is called "Sun Zhenren's Millennium Teacher". It is said that the Palace Museum still has a portrait of Mr. Sun Deng.
Sun Deng wrote Laozi's Note and Laozi's Drink, but both died.
Sun Deng, Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest and other famous or unknown people like them, their maverick behavior and tearful questioning about the value of life, nature and time not only injected special charm into that era. Their persistence, their stories, their works and their personality charm turn into light and illuminate history.
Today, the site of Sun Deng Xiaotai is still on Sumen Mountain near Bai Quan Lake in Huixian County, Xinxiang.
Feelings: life, thoughts, thinking Since the emergence of human beings, people have been repeating this proposition. Sun Deng was just one of many thinkers, who always felt that life itself was a kind of faith. Perhaps it is with this belief that he can walk alone in the mountains at that time, in the deep mountains and forests, and in the dark!
Even in the dark, your heart should be full of sunshine.
Note: Yuan Xiaoni (about 225-? ), the Three Kingdoms Ren Wei, accurate name, filial piety. After entering the Jin dynasty, the official matters. Yuan Xiaoni once wanted to learn from Ji Kang's Guangling San, but Ji Kang was wild and willful, free and easy, and looked down on powerful people. Therefore, for an official like Yuan Xiaoni, Ji Kang would rather bring Guangling San into the coffin than teach him.
