One of the impressions of reading: a pond half an acre square is displayed like a mirror, and the brilliance of the sky and the shadow of floating clouds move together in the mirror. Why is the water in that square pond so clear? It is because there is an inexhaustible source to continuously transport living water for it.
Thoughts on reading: Last night, there was a spring tide on the riverside, and the ship was as light as a feather. Pushing and pulling has always been in vain, but today I can drift freely in the middle of the river.
Original ancient poems:
Reflections on reading (1)
Chu Hsi
As soon as the half-acre square pond is opened,
The sky is full of clouds and shadows.
How can the canal be so clear?
Because there is inexhaustible living water for it.
Reflections on Reading (Part Two)
Chu Hsi
Last night, the river was full of springs.
This huge ship is a dime a dozen.
Always in vain,
This is a day of freedom.
Appreciation of ancient poetry:
The truth contained in Two Thoughts on Reading belongs to the category of aesthetic principles, one is to appreciate beauty, and the other is to create beauty. This aesthetic principle is universal to some extent. For example, readers abandon the description object of poetry itself, which can be extended completely.
For example, if "book" is understood as "book", the contents of books generally do not include medical books, philosophy books, history books, science books and so on. And only in poetry, music, prose and other literary content to reflect the beauty of literature and art, then we can also think that "flowing water from the source" expresses "inexhaustible literary thoughts" and "one-night spring tide" expresses "generate's literary thoughts"
