Wang Yangming's famous poems

Wang Yangming

Danger is not in the chest, so what's the difference between floating clouds and space?

At night, the sea of tranquility and waves are three Wan Li, and the moon is windy.

"Danger is not stuck in the chest. What's the difference between floating clouds and space?"

At the beginning of the poem, the manner is natural and unrestrained, showing the honor and disgrace of the world, and taking it lightly. Wang Yangming's theory of mind later liberated the hearts of countless people and broke the shackles of Neo-Confucianism on human nature for hundreds of years. But to liberate the world, we must first liberate ourselves. He said that the sea is rough and the waves are sky-high. As long as the heart is unmoved, what can this storm do? All the difficulties and obstacles in the world have never been taken to heart; The changes of everything in the world are like floating clouds floating across the sky, leaving no trace in my heart. The transcendence of this state of mind is the reconciliation between man and himself and the world. He not only embodies Wang Yangming's resolute and fearless quality, but also embodies Wang Yangming's viewpoint of "being cautious but not looking, being afraid and not asking, and raising this heart is purely natural". With this state, in three or four sentences of the poem, the poet further expressed his feelings at this time-

"The sea of tranquility Wan Li for three nights. The moon flies and the wind blows. "

In this vast and quiet sea, Zhang Xi is holding a long wind in his hand, flying in the moonlight, flying over the sea, flying over the boundless, flying over the vicissitudes of life. Three Seas in Wan Li, a thrilling voyage in stormy waves, was written as a poetic journey by the poet because he had his own instruments and wisdom in his heart.

Later, Wang Yangming did find the instrument of life, and he did use this instrument to fly over the vicissitudes of the world. This is his "Yangming Mind". After writing this song "Crossing the Ocean", Wang Yangming resolutely embarked on the road of relegation. In the wild Guizhou, he finally realized the way of Longchang-"The way of being a saint is to be self-sufficient, and those who seek truth from facts are also not", which laid the foundation of Yangming's theory of mind and made China the last saint. As Wang Yangming later said, "If the sky is not as bright as mine, who will admire him?" The earth is not as bright as mine, who will bow down? Ghosts and gods don't have my spirit, who will compete with him for good or ill luck? "Yes, there is nothing outside the heart." Life must first find yourself, find your childlike innocence, find yourself fearless, and then find your own life value.
