? "A person's life is bitter; Make it interesting; Get it or lose it; What is important is that there can be no bright moon in the clear spring of the heart. " This bright moon is faith, and people with faith are trees determined to keep the moon. This man is Zhuangzi.
In the history of China's cultural philosophy, Zhuangzi has always been a maverick. As the book Carpe diem, the opening book of Zhuangzi, wants to express, as the name implies, freedom is freedom, get rid of all external restrictions, maintain absolute spiritual freedom, and "swim in infinity without waiting". In other words, ignore the difference between things and me, forget yourself, achieve fame and fortune, and be free from any constraints.
However, before that, I didn't know Zhuangzi. In fact, many people don't. Reading "Zhuangzi" will make people feel that the article is unconstrained and unconstrained, and it will become a sense of incompetence. What's more, this is completely ridiculous. But it can be described as "full of absurd words, a heartbreaking tear." Dou Yun's author is stupid, who can solve the taste! ".Now that I think about it, I can't help sighing, so I can't help crying.
? "If you don't have yourself ... without me, there is no me." Zhuangzi may be one of the few enlightened people in the cultural history of China, which is really hard to come by. But in that era of "I was alone when the world was cloudy, and everyone was drunk and I woke up alone", he was not happy, so Zhuangzi was undoubtedly sad.
Enlightenment is good, but there is still a way out. Otherwise, life is worse than death. It's like having an iron house without windows, which is extremely difficult to decompose. There are many sleeping people in it. They will suffocate soon, but they will go from lethargy to death, but they will not feel the sadness of death. Now only one sober person is shouting, arousing more sober people and making this unfortunate minority suffer irreparable dying pain. Then how should these awakened people come out? Is this right or wrong?
An article once commented: "A Zhuangzi, in a word, is a pity for mankind." Zhuangzi demands himself with high moral standards, so he can't tolerate going along with others. He knows that the officialdom is dark, and if he stays in the temple for a long time, he will definitely be excluded, so he would rather "sneak into the fishing firewood and draw a tail." Or become a butterfly, a dream of Conan, or a god bird!
? "Peng came back, I don't know thousands of miles. Fly away angrily, its wings hang in the sky like clouds. If it is a bird, shipping will migrate to Nanming. " "Peng moved to Nanming, and it took him three thousand miles to get up in Wan Li ...! "。 This is what kind of picture, and what kind of momentum. At the beginning of the article, I wrote about the wonders of Dapeng flying to Wan Li in anger, giving people an infinite wonder of "the vast expanse of the sky and the birds flying", which makes all beings constantly expand their chests, far behind. It seems that Zhuangzi's ideal of "swimming in infinity without waiting" has really come true.
? However, in fact? This world is not like this, because nothing in this world can exist independently of other conditions In other words, everything in this world is interdependent, everything will change, and there is no independent state.
? Dapeng in Zhuangzi's article, seemingly carefree, is actually "waiting for something", because it can only soar by strong winds, so it failed to reach the ideal state of Zhuangzi. Then, the author takes wild horses, dust, pheasants, pigeons, fungus, Hui Shuo and other images as examples to explain what they are waiting for, expressing the absurdity and narrowness of small life in the vast and eternal time and space. The humble are small and trivial, and the noble are unattainable. Zhuangzi is obviously aware of this, "The road is long, and I will go up and down", so Zhuangzi has been going up and down all his life, always struggling between ideal and reality.
? From this perspective, Zhuangzi's freedom is actually just a realm. Charming as it is, it is impossible to achieve in reality. This realm and lifestyle are beyond the reach of real life. Therefore, it is enough for all people in the world to keep a clear mind and face the ups and downs of life bravely and frankly. The pressure of life may burden us and make us physically and mentally exhausted, but we are never worldly or vulgar. In the secular world, as long as we can also appreciate the indifference of "being humiliated, watching the flowers bloom in front of the court, staying or not, and slowly following the clouds", it is enough ...!
Perhaps in front of him, what kind of evaluation is pale and powerless, and it is all insignificant, like a grain of dust. Because Zhuangzi's spirit is immortal. Every era has its sorrow. In today's materialistic era, we may often see the dirty heart disappointedly through the gorgeous coat. Even though the infinite infatuation with material makes the mind more distorted, at least we can get comfort from Zhuangzi.
? Zhuangzi, when we have no choice!
? Zhuangzi, let the weak be strong, let the sadness go forward ...!
