He who is drunk but not drunk is a hero. This is a poem by Su Shi.
The full text is as follows:
He who drinks without getting drunk is a hero, and who is not obsessed with love is the highest.
Ill-gotten gains cannot be taken away. If you are angry, it will disappear on its own. There is a legend that Su Dongpo, a talented man from the Song Dynasty, had a good relationship with Monk Liaoyuan (named Foyin) of Daxiangguo Temple, and they often talked about Zen and poetry together. One day, Su Dongpo visited Yuan Weiyu and took a leisurely stroll in the temple. On a wall somewhere, he saw a poem written by Yuan Yuan. The poem goes: "There are four walls of wine, sex and wealth, and everyone is hiding inside; who can If you break out of the circle, you will live longer even if you don't live a hundred years."
After Su Dongpo read it, he saw that it was a poem that advised people to stay away from alcohol and sex, and to get rid of wealth. It was full of philosophy, and he commented on it. However, Su Dongpo felt that this poem had too strong a worldly flavor, so he was tempted to write a poem later.
The poem says: "Drinking without being drunk is a hero, being in love without being obsessed with sex is the highest; ill-gotten gains are not to be taken, and anger will disappear if you don't get angry." Su Dongpo defined the concept of wine, sex, wealth and wealth from the perspective of joining the world. The degree of control must be grasped very accurately.
The reason for the theory of wine, sex and wealth
Actually, this is just a legendary story. The theory that drinking, sex, and wealth leads to wealth was proposed by Li Zengbo, a famous official in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Li Zengbo was highly respected and an important military general and poet in the late Southern Song Dynasty. After the three words "wine, sex, and wealth", he added the word "qi" and wrote four five-character poems. The poem discusses the harmful effects of the four words "wine, sex and wealth" respectively. Generally speaking: wine is a poison that penetrates the intestines, sex is a guillotine for scraping bones, wealth is something outside the body, endure the calm for a while, and take a step back to open up the sea and the sky.
As everyone knows, wine, sex, and wealth encompass the material and spiritual worlds that human beings rely on for survival, and its importance is self-evident. People are alive, life is endless, and desires are endless. Don't you hear that three inches of Qi are used in a thousand ways, but once it is impermanent, everything will stop.
