Introduction to the author
Wang Wei (701-761), also known as the Poetic Buddha, was also known as Vimalakirti. In Buddhism, he is a lay Buddhist of Mahayana Buddhism. He is a famous lay bodhisattva, which means a person who is famous for his purity and no pollution. It can be seen that Wang Wei's name has an indissoluble bond with Buddhism. During Wang Wei's lifetime, people considered him to be a "contemporary poetry craftsman and master of Zen philosophy." (Yuan Xian's "Preface to Rewarding Wang Wei"). After his death, he was given the title of "Poetry Buddha". Wang Wei was born in a family of devout Buddhists. According to Wang Wei's "Please Shizhuang as the Temple Preface" written by Wang Wei, it says: "My mother passed away from the Jun Cui family in Boling County. I studied with Zen Master Dazhao for more than thirty years." In Volume 25 of "Wang Youcheng's Collection of Notes", there is an article "Inscription on the Pagoda of Dade Daoguang Zen Master of Dajianfu Temple". The article talks about the relationship between the poet and the famous contemporary monk Daoguang Zen Master and says: "Under the throne of Wei Ten Years." It can be seen that Wang Wei Indeed, he had a close connection with Buddhism, and in his later years he even lived a monk-like life. According to the "Old Book of the Tang Dynasty": "In the capital, Changzhai, I prostrate myself without clothes and receive teachings. I want to measure the void with a speck, which is useless. I just want to know where the relics are." For fun, there is nothing in the house, just a tea pot, medicine mortar, and a rope bed for sutras. After he retired from the court, he burned incense and sat alone, doing Zen chanting. "At this time, Wang Wei was just like a monk.
Wang Wei had literary talent in his youth. In the ninth year of Kaiyuan (721), he was awarded the rank of Jinshi and was appointed as Lecheng. For some reason, he was relegated to Sicang of Jeju. He joined the army and returned to Chang'an. In the 22nd year of Kaiyuan (734), Wang Wei was promoted to the post of Zhongshu Ling. Shi Jueshang's political views reflected his desire to make a difference at that time. In the 24th year of his reign (736), Zhang Jiuling was dismissed as the governor of Jing and Li Linfu was appointed Zhongshu Ling. At an increasingly dark turning point, Wang Wei was very frustrated by Zhang Jiuling's demotion, but he did not withdraw from officialdom. In the 25th year of Kaiyuan, he was sent to Hexi Province to serve as Deputy Ambassador Cui Xiyi, and later served as the imperial censor Zhi Nanxuan. , Tianbaozhong, Wang Wei's official position was gradually promoted. Before the Anshi Rebellion, he was tired and worried about the officialdom at that time, but on the other hand, he was still attached to Huailu and could not leave decisively. He followed the customs and lived a semi-official and semi-hidden life for a long time
His achievements in poetry are multi-faceted. Whether it is frontier fortresses, landscape poems, rhymed poems or quatrains, his poems are all popular among the people. Su Shi called it "the poems of Wei Mojie are paintings, and the paintings of Kanmojie are poems." He indeed has his own unique skills in describing natural scenery, whether it is the magnificence of famous mountains or rivers. The majestic desolation of the frontier and the tranquility of the small bridge and flowing water can accurately and concisely create a perfect and vivid image. There is not much ink, the artistic conception is lofty, and the poetry and painting are completely integrated into a whole.
