Why do people like Pig Bajie when they reach middle age?

Wu Dao Yu Jun:

People are only interesting when they are really interesting.

Only when people have true feelings can they have deep feelings.

People have authenticity, so they have personality.

The most terrible thing for middle-aged people is not the crisis of age, but the "crisis" in which we lose our innocence and courage all the way during our growth.

When people reach middle age, they will envy Zhu Bajie, because our life is boring and we have lost our real interest. Gradually become indifferent and lose true feelings; Learned to disguise, lost the truth.

Pig Bajie has many weaknesses, but he can still maintain a "true" heart.

Standing at 30, watch the journey to the west.

I found that the greatest sorrow of middle-aged people is to understand Zhu Bajie.

He is not as perfect and fearless as the Great Sage, nor as noble as Tang Priest, nor as upright and calm as Friar Sand.

But he's most like an ordinary person. He has worldly desires, and he dares to love and hate more than we do. He is greedy and lustful, more interesting and naive than us.

The most important thing is to have the "truth" that we have already lost.

Really interesting, true feelings, authenticity.

Very interesting

/People can be ugly, but interesting/

Bajie is ugly, but he never feels inferior.

A few times he scared people by staying overnight, and he would smile and say, "I am very gentle, and I am not much better than my brother."

Or say, "It's wrong for you to judge people by their appearances. I am ugly, but useful. "

Bajie is useful and has a lovely pleasure.

The Great Sage often calls him a fool, probably from the first day he met him.

At this time, the Great Sage came to pound Pig's cloud stack hole and smashed the cave door with a stick.

Pig ran out in anger, pointing at the Great Sage and cursing, "You damn Bi Marvin, go to see your opinion. Breaking in the door is a capital crime."

The Great Sage kept breaking into the door and didn't feel anything wrong. At that time, I was confused by this stupid coquettish operation.

When the enemy comes to you, it is a disaster, and it is a matter of life and death. The pig head thought stupidly, which law is someone breaking the door?

He is also cute because of the contrast between bravery and timidity:

When he met the three demons, he vowed, "I'm afraid of him!" Wait for me to hit him! "

Just after that, I turned around and said timidly to the Great Sage, "Brother, can you lend me the rope? I'll buckle it around my waist, and you and my brother will pull it. If I lose, you can pull me back and don't get caught. "

Because what Bajie fears most is not death, but being caught and baked, I'm sorry for his image as Marshal Tian Peng:

"... this kind of drill in the fire, don't want to live, just cook the old pig, add seasoning ..."

Bajie is cute because she is really "stupid and naive".

Have a natural interest in human nature. It's just that we ourselves, after traveling around the world, were forced to take the initiative to lose our original real interest.

Endure the cold eyes of others and live a repetitive life. In this way, an adult misses his lost real interest day after day in repeated daily life.

As we all know, people only have fun when they are really interesting.

real sentiments

/People can have weaknesses, but they must be true/

Everyone in the world has weaknesses.

Bajie has many weaknesses, which seem indecent and have deep meaning behind him.

Back in 1986, the leopard tricked three other disciples with fake heads three times, and finally threw a real head. When the three men saw this scene, they all began to cry, but Pig's crying was different.

With tears in his eyes, he silently hugged Master's head, found a sunny place to bury it, built a grave, then put some willow branches into the grave and found some pebbles to pile it up.

He said: "willow branches and cypresses, the owner built the grave top;" Cross spring is a snack, and master provides it. "

"Rammed goods!" shouted the Great Sage. People are dead, and they will give him stones! "

Bajie said seriously: "Show people's wishes, and the right is filial piety."

Then the whole body fell to the grave, patting the soil with both hands and crying: "Master of evil karma! Master in the distance! See you there! "

You see, he is always clamoring for luggage to go back to Gaolaozhuang. Seemingly heartless, in fact, when I lay dying, I was deeply moved.

He loves not only Tang Priest, but also Gao Cuilan.

Although he likes to flirt with goblins, Gao Cuilan is always in his mind.

When he was the son-in-law of Gao's family, he was diligent and made his wife eat fruits and vegetables on time, and wear brocade and gold.

Even if he wants to go to the Western Heaven to learn Buddhist scriptures, he still thinks about going back to Gao Zhuangzi from time to time, telling his father-in-law to keep an eye on Gao Cuilan and come back as a son-in-law if he can't get Buddhist scriptures.

Most of us ordinary people, however, pursue fame and fortune and forget the important people around us, and are indifferent and fickle to the world.

So I have always admired Bajie's true feelings: treating the world with affection, eating three meals and four seasons.

When people have true feelings, they have deep feelings.

real

/People can be vulgar, and the most important thing is happiness/

Everyone has worldly desires, who hates love. It's just that some people are depressed, while others let nature take its course.

Bajie is the shadow of our "desire" and has the truth we envy.

He never hides his desire for food, nor does he hide his pleasure in satisfying his appetite.

Freud said that man has three egos: superego, id and ego.

Superego is an advanced and unrealistic ideal personality; Id is an instinctive personality suppressed by rules and culture; Ego is the daily personality between superego and id (that is, the personality displayed by ordinary people).

The Tang Priest has a superego personality, and he puts the ID under pressure, so he has no desire, only Amitabha in his life.

Only Bajie never suppresses the ID and doesn't care about the superego.

He only wants vulgar pleasure, so he is simple and true.

Bajie eats a lot, three or five buckets of rice per meal, but he will work hard when he is full; Eating ginseng fruit means swallowing it, and it doesn't matter if you are teased by other disciples; When Hua Zhai ate all the food, he confessed that he had only eaten half.

But he doesn't care what other people think. He said, "It's good to be a ghost full of death."

Bajie, he boldly expressed his desires, pursued vulgar tastes and enjoyed the most basic happiness of being born.

He doesn't have any Buddhist ideals, and he doesn't love fame in the world, and he doesn't want to go to the gods that day.

What he wants is a mortal ideal: there are three acres of land in Niu Geng, with his wife and children on the kang.

So I said Bajie lived a transparent life.

Modern people sometimes live too exquisitely and unreasonably.

This is necessary in spring and snow, but it is also disdainful of chin beauty.

Have an affair and despise human fireworks.

It's either too cold or too vulgar.

There is no such vulgar taste and lack of authenticity.

Without authenticity, there is no personality.

When we were young, we didn't understand Pig Bajie. We laughed at him because we were arrogant, envious of heroes and unwilling to be mortal.

Reading is no longer young, because after all, we are mortal, and we have worked hard all our lives, but gradually lost our real interest, truthfulness and authenticity, so we envy him.

Life is not easy. I hope you can:

Happy day, real ronin.
