works appreciation
The first sentence "misty rain in Lushan Mountain, tidal wave in Zhejiang Province" is an ideal goal, and every pursuer is haunted by it. Anyway, we must have a look. As written in the poem, the misty rain in Lushan Mountain and the tide in Zhejiang Province are unprecedented, so I feel that I have Qian Qian's absolute regret and there is no way to eliminate it. Once I have been there for a day, I feel nothing new. Misty rain is still the misty rain of Lushan Mountain, and the tide is still the tide of Zhejiang Province. Never seen it before, always full of yearning and expectation, and then strive to pursue it and realize it. Once I saw it with my own eyes, I was there, I got it, I had it, but I felt normal.
In this regard, the secular sigh is: "That's all!" Zen has the opposite attitude. The meditator will give a heartfelt admiration: "Exactly!" Ordinary people always imagine that Elysium is 108,000 miles away, and even when they arrive in Elysium, they can't feel the fun. For them, their daily life, familiar places and learned things are not wonderful. The possession of one thing leads to the loss of the stimulus to another, so that you are trapped in a vicious circle of boredom-pain-boredom forever, and the spiritual wandering never stops. Enlightened people, although the living space of ordinary people is the same, can turn their daily life and familiar scenery into a paradise, cherish what they have, turn their ideals into reality, and never indulge in mirage fantasies. In this way, when you dress, eat and talk, you can feel the existence of real and vivid life silently.
This poem is full of Zen, which is generally considered as a Zen poem. The whole poem shows three courses of pursuing truth in life.
Hong Pimo, an associate professor at the Institute of Ancient Books Arrangement of East China University of Political Science and Law, wrote "Three Hundred Zen Poems": "Lushan Mountain is misty and rainy, and Zhejiang tide is endless. It seems that this is the boundless and mighty Buddhism in front of you. "
