The Zen Master of Xuanzang Temple in Nanjing and Ersong Case-solving

The master told a story about solving a case. Once upon a time, a Zen master was lying on a meditation bed and dying. At this time, his apprentice, who had been practicing for several years, suddenly knelt in front of Master's meditation bed and asked him for dharma. The Zen master looked at his disciples and couldn't speak. He just opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue. Then he closed his eyes, kicked his leg, and drove away in the crane. After years of hard thinking, has the disciple been enlightened? I don't know.

This Zen story means that the old Zen master lost all his teeth except his tongue before he died. This profound philosophy of life means that although the teeth are hard and the tongue is soft, the teeth fall off prematurely because of their hardness. So is life. Only by being flexible can we be in an invincible position in life. Those who would rather die than surrender, who are righteously upright ... mostly died by the swords of others, such as Yue Fei, Wen Tianxiang, Tan Sitong, Qiu Jin, Qu Qiubai and so on. I'm not saying that they shouldn't die like this, but the mystery behind it. I want to find out one by one, and I must not be deceived by all the articles!

Yes, this is a Zen case-solving, with far-reaching ideas. In reality, some people mingle with human beings, while others mingle with suffering. What is the reason?

The master explained to me that I had a "bamboo poem tablet" when I was in qixia temple.

Don't thank Dong Junyi, Danqing is an independent name.

Don't be too lonely, it won't wither after all.

Don't thank Dong Junyi, Danqing is an independent name.

Don't be too lonely, it won't wither after all.

In this way, there are paintings in poems and poems in paintings, which praise the moral character of bamboo. Then praised Guan Yunchang's character as bamboo. The poems hidden in Guan Di Zhu Shi Tu were originally sent by Guan Gong, expressing Guan Yu's unwillingness to surrender despite his unfortunate capture. It is said that Guan Yu, a famous soldier of the Three Kingdoms, is in prison. In qixia temple, painters imitate allusions and craftsmen carve them. I think bamboo is easy to feed in the prison garden. Guan Gong is a loyal representative of China population. He has a clean personality and bamboo products. Through the text, we can see his ideals and goals. Guan Gong died of pride and lost a lot of Jingzhou. Did Guandi achieve "not to be too lonely", but did he achieve "not to wither after all"? I don't know.

Adhere to the castle peak and not relax, the root is breaking the rock.

The wind is strong in the east, west, north and south.

Good articulation, the tenacity of bamboo, praise the softness of bamboo with fortitude, honesty and restraint.

Modern poets also write poems about bamboo;

Born upright, dignified and neutral.

Not afraid of frost and snow, but also Ling Yunzhi.

Honest and open-minded people respect.

When you become a good person, you will die for others.

Praise the quality of bamboo and extend it to the character of a gentleman, just like bamboo.

Scholars in previous dynasties compared themselves with bamboo.

Bamboo can lift weights as easily as possible, but it will be discarded and all branches and leaves will be picked, which will be a good branch in the coming year.

In my opinion, pine trees also have the characteristics of pine trees, as evidenced by the article:

The pavilion is loose on the mountain and caressed in the valley.

When the wind is strong, pine branches are strong.

First frost is miserable and always right at the end of the year.

Don't suffer from cold, pine and cypress have sex.

This strength and nature emphasize the author's dissatisfaction with the world. I want to get it back in words. Have you noticed that after most articles, I feel much happier and vent more. That's what I am. I don't know what you think.

When the pine tree grows to a few inches, it disappears into the grass.

I can't see the heart of Cage Cloud, but I know it is as cold as ice.

Weak stems can be destroyed, and fiber stems are easy to be destroyed.

When thousands of feet, cover the moon for you.

It is said that people should have ideals and aspirations, which is a typical expression of aspirations.

Li Bai, a famous poet in Tang Dynasty, never forgot Song Qing's nobleness when he was drunk and singing;

There is a lonely pine tree to the south of the window, with such dense branches and leaves.

The breeze has been shaking its branches, and it has been so pleasant and pleasant all day.

The shadows of trees are covered with green moss, and the autumn clouds are dyed green.

When can the branches and leaves grow to the sky outside and go straight to thousands of feet to be upright?

The reason why Li Bai is called the Poet Fairy is to help me and other mortals realize in the article that "how to be a flying star, just count thousands of feet." He is a romantic poet. He is not Du Fu. He generally doesn't consider daily necessities.

Snow presses pines and cypresses, and pines and cypresses are tall and straight.

You should know that pine trees are noble and noble before melting.

It seems that the author was depressed at that time and wanted to tell the superior leaders through poetry that we could be friends of poetry and talk about culture, but in fact, we just wanted to have a good relationship with the leaders.

It is common for literati to borrow scenery to express their feelings and express their aspirations. The author's intention is to let readers know their characteristics and differences through comparison. Each has his own merits, but my choice will be up to you.

According to the master, a few years ago, a sudden heavy snow covered the whole Xiaojiuhua Mountain overnight. When I woke up in the morning, I found that the bamboo forest in front of the temple was completely bent and covered a large area. And those bare deciduous trees without branches and leaves still look down at the sky. Although pine and bamboo have the vitality of welcoming the spring and the proud character of snow, they can't resist the devastation of cold current and blizzard, either bending their backs or destroying branches. ...

When the spring is fine next year, the dead branches will be replaced by new buds all over the mountain. The master also wrote two poems:

Songzhusong

Loose and not boastful, diabolo is oblique;

The breeze helps the face, and the lonely monk is far away in the bamboo forest.

It seems that the master is looking at bamboo.

Matsuzaka Song 2

Pine trees are proud of the sky, and they lean on pine trees in the moonlight;

? Look at the bamboo language again, and the breeze is rustling.

It seems that the master is also lazy. A master is a master, always impartial.

On the platform in the southeast corner of the temple, two tall pine trees stand. A tall and independent tree, soaring into the sky, is called straight. It means that monks who become monks should, like Song Qing's moral character, be outspoken, do Dojo, be not afraid of powerful people, be eclectic, and be independent of women's world.

Although another tree has the ambition of Lingyun, it leans to the southwest. This looseness also fully reflects the forbearance in similar struggles. Obviously, the two pine trees are too close together. If you don't give in to each other, neither tree will grow well, but it will hurt each other. Shady seeks to bend over and tolerate, leaning in another direction, but its roots are still stuck in the rock and soil and will not bend.

The master said that he always stood in it from time to time, watching the pine trees in the east stand upright, facing the rising sun, a kind of pride of "trees in the forest" and forgetting the danger of "the wind will destroy them"; Look at another tree in the west, its branches have been extended to the southwest, waiting for the sunset. This is borrowing meditation!

Because everyone needs photosynthesis to get nutrition, the result is different fate. In the purification of life, we must accept our fate! A vigorous tree, such as an umbrella cover, is flourishing, rushing to the blue sky and facing the rising sun, thriving and developing freely with its unique advantages; Another tree knows that it can't compete in the big environment, so it can only lean sideways to find another way out and find its own development space. It has traces of wind and snow pain, although it leans sideways, it still does not lose the integrity of the world!

Just like our life, some people are born in the family of emperors, enjoying the splendor from childhood, making them look luxurious and elegant; Some were born in the grass roots, poor and struggling to crawl on the road of life. As a result, Li Bai, a poet who lived in poverty, but worried about the country and the people, and Du Fu, a poet who lamented that "the wine in Zhumen stinks and the meat on the road freezes to death". They are like two different pine trees, and their environment has created their different fates.

Pine trees, when the morning sun rises, I will look at them and look for the mystery of life in the details.

Pine trees, in the days of lightning and thunder, I also braved the wind and rain, watching from a distance how they swayed in the wind and rain, looking for the pulse of the times.

Pine trees, in the quiet moonlight night, I am still independent of them, watching the moon drop their branches little by little, looking for the ultimate care of life. ...

The fate of two pine trees is also the fate of two kinds of people. When it is straight, it must be straight, and when it is bent, it must be bent. The strength and character of pine roots will dominate their fate.

The case of Zen master reappeared in front of my eyes. The purpose of our work is to survive, to survive and to live well. You remember the picture of the Zen master sticking out his tongue. Remember the crooked neck pine and learn from it.

In life, we can't all be protagonists, but more are supporting roles. Play a supporting role well, keep our distance, maintain space and serve the protagonist, the protagonist lives well and the supporting role develops, both of which can develop better.

Life is full of bamboo, bamboo is weak, and you can reduce your burden at any time. You can always think about the future development, listen carefully to the rustling of bamboo forests, and exchange dead branches for new buds in the coming year.

On the contrary, some people live like straight pine trees. Are there so many towering trees in their lives? Are there so many "Guo Jing"? There are more old urchins, Sha Tin Boys, Four Ghosts of the Yellow River, and more flowers and plants!

The example of the master's Ersong tells me that if you want to be a supporting role in life, learn how to be a supporting role and give others space first, you may find more space. Have you noticed that there is an old tree with a crooked neck at the head of every village? I am under that tree, waiting for my Xiao Fang forever.
