But, as Zhang Ailing once said in an article: Yes Detours are essential.
This is the simplest truth, but it covers all the world.
When he was a child, you taught him diligently and never let go of any opportunity to preach; any trivial thing he did wrong can be a case where you see the big from the small and draw inferences from one another, and you can’t wait to talk about everything. All his life insights were delivered to him. You hope that your little by little teaching will generate the broadest knowledge in his little mind, so that he can cope with fate. You hope that his life will be smooth and peaceful at least because of your instructions and supervision.
It’s just that you probably have overlooked that there are things that no one with a root of wisdom can evade. Such things are called desires.
I have no way of demonstrating whether people are inherently good or evil at the beginning, just as I don't know whether the chicken or the egg came first, but I am sure that desire is indeed in the mother's womb. What it brings is not only a wealth bestowed by the Creator, but also a catastrophe.
In spring, the camera unfolds in the deserted and remote mountains and waters. In the small temple in the middle of the water, there are a pair of peaceful masters and apprentices—the old monk and the young monk. The age of the old monk is equivalent to the grandfather of the young monk. The middle-aged role of his father seems to have been deliberately omitted, thus omitting another state of life between the wise man who has penetrated the life state and the new life individual who has not yet been involved in the world. What can be experienced to transform from the latter to the former, like the origin of the little monk's life experience, has become a mystery.
Life is not the peaceful and silent goldfish cruising in front of the Buddha. This is destined to be a small island surrounded by water, but it is difficult to isolate people's desires and desires.
The young monk was collecting medicine in the mountains, seeing all kinds of small animals, he was very playful, he tied stones to small fish, frogs and snakes with a string, and he laughed with joy when he watched them walking with a heavy load. , And smiling so innocent and cute, people can't bear to blame. In the words that often appear in the moral and ethical documentaries of various TV stations, this is a typical "founding one's own happiness on the suffering of others."
The old monk saw everything in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, but decided to "take the other way and give back to the other body." That night, he tied a big stone to the little monk while the little monk was asleep. He woke up in the morning, and the little monk begged the old monk to remove the stone. The old monk took the opportunity to educate and asked the little monk to tie it to the little animals. After the stone was removed, he was willing to remove the boulder from his body. He also specially emphasized that if the little animals have died because of this, then the boulder will always be in the heart of the little monk. The little monk carried a big stone on his back to find the little animals before, and found that the little fish and snake had been killed by him. Under regret, the little monk was in pain.
The reason why the little monk’s happy and innocent laugh before was unbearable was that he was still a primitive life entity. In him, innocence appeared in an unpretentious primitive state—he didn’t think it was bad. Because he hasn't been educated yet, he doesn't know. His laughter at that time was the same as his crying when he later discovered that the fish and the snake were killed because of his own playfulness. It was from his heart, but the former came from primitive and the latter came from enlightenment.
One reason for the greatness of human civilization must be inevitable, that is, its powerful infection and enlightenment function, and it is thanks to this characteristic that the speed of human development can soar. However, no enlightenment and infection can replace experience. If enlightenment is the act of saving and can burn the spiritual essence of human beings intact on the new life hard disk, then experience is a kind of cleverness even if it is re-enacted. A powerful hacker can't decipher the virus. He uses a method called "desire" to invade until the original hard disk content is modified beyond recognition.
The little monk naturally can't escape this cut.
In summer, in this season, the little monk who has grown into a teenager witnessed the entanglement of snakes, and the hormones began to flourish like the high-crowned rooster raised in the monastery. He began to be confused by the young girl who came here to recover. He helped her aboard, and for the first time in his life he touched a kind of warm and sensuality completely different from himself and his master. He was at a loss to live with her in a small space, eating and living with her in a slightly embarrassing manner, wandering indefinitely. Stick to fragile ethics. An unprecedented sentiment and instinct began to nourish in his heart: he touched the girl while she was asleep, and after getting the girl's irresistible attitude, he made an inch of it, and finally after a heart struggle, he dragged the girl into the water and rowed the girl into the mountains, recklessly Completed the first fish and water joy of life. Desire easily gained the upper hand in this way, the young body began to intensify, and sensual pleasures became ubiquitous-finally the Dongchuang incident was discovered by the old monk.
I have to mention that when she first entered the monastery, the girl was so weak that she was ten points better than sister Lin, and she looked like she was short-lived, but after tasting the forbidden fruit again and again, she miraculously recovered. Thinking of the old monk’s words is really intriguing. When the girl’s mother asked her daughter’s illness if there was hope, the old monk said: “When she finds the peace of the soul, she will naturally heal.” Thinking about it now, the so-called peace, Probably it was the yin and yang reconciliation that was finally reached inside through the matter of men and women.
The young monk who broke the precepts could no longer keep the distinction of the temple life. He carried the Buddha on the altar in his bag and left secretly.
Qiu, the little monk of the year has become a fugitive for murdering his wife wanted in the newspapers. He returned to this isolated place with a ferocious look, eager to escape legal punishment. However, he couldn't escape the demons. Holding the bloody murder weapon in his hand, he was hysterical again and again, and collapsed in agony for nowhere. The old monk beat him badly, then wrote the Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra on the wooden floor in front of the temple, and ordered the little monk to carve it out with the bloody knife. At the beginning, the little monk was impatient and frantic, struggling painfully, and the two police officers who came to arrest him made him on the verge of collapse. The master asked the police to let him finish the engraving of the Heart Sutra. Gradually, he became more peaceful and focused. The original fierce light disappeared little by little, and finally all the engraving was completed before dawn.
After the little monk left, the old monk sealed his facial features and burned himself on the fire.
In the winter, the young monk who had been released from prison returned to the monastery. The old monk had turned into a snake and stayed here all day long. The little monk began to practice meditation. He also found a martial arts secret book and began to practice martial arts. The masculine power is presented and released in another way. The soul and the body begin to truly unite and become stronger day by day.
One day, a masked woman came here with a baby in her arms and begged the little monk to adopt the baby. In the middle of the night, the masked woman hurriedly left, but accidentally transferred to the ice cave that the little monk usually used to wash and died. Life is about this impermanence, guard against day and night, but sometimes, one's own unintentional actions become the cause of the death of others, could it be that this is where the Buddha's universal light cannot? Or maybe there is a god three feet above the head. This is the so-called karma. Women have not escaped punishment for simply sending their children to others, but have to pay for what they have done? The little monk dragged the boulder behind him again, as he did when he was young, and climbed over the mountains. It was both punishment and practice. Putting the Buddha statue on the top of the mountain was a great wish. He longed to receive the light of the Buddha throughout his life, and all to get Pudu.
It is another spring, the buddhism in the water slowly opens in front of the camera five degrees, the salvation of an individual life is completed, and the road of another new life has just begun...
I like some shots of this movie very much, although it is too possessive The symbolism does not have a Zen meaning. The doors in the water and the glaring door gods on the doors opened and closed several times. The edge of the boat is painted like a Buddha flying in the water, and the rooster raised in the temple in "Summer" symbolizes desire, "Instead of the peaceful and gentle cat, the goldfish under the Bodhi seat, the door without walls, the Prajna Heart Sutra carved by the little monk in front of the temple... The various Zen in Buddhism and the props have fully demonstrated their meaning in the movie, and The stories are subtly combined.
It’s hard to imagine that a movie with sex scenes was actually watched by my grandmother with me. However, perhaps because of a Buddhist mentioning something from the side, my perception of this movie is even more profound. Especially in many Zen.
I think of Buddhism, there are four great troubles in human beings: craving, hatred, ignorance, and arrogance.
Five desires and six dusts are all temptations.
Because of desire, people become attached, because of attachment, people become powerless, and because of powerlessness, people become paranoid, ignorant, and evil. So the little monk shouted bitterly in front of the Buddha, why, she promised to love me forever, but why did she follow others? !
There are too many "whys" in life, we chase these "whys" hard, paranoid and painful.
Moreover, the smoother the life, the easier it is to get mad and painful when encountering things that are not what you want. I used to be one of these people. Maybe our generation is like this. Since childhood, we have too many successful cases that we can get if we think about it. So, once in a while, we can’t get it. It is tribulation. Many of us don’t know how to delay desire in order to satisfy it, just as we don’t understand that we can’t catch our fish. Many of us don't even understand that "whatever we want will come true", which is simply a word of blessing.
In the face of not being able to get, all the reasons and comparisons are eclipsed, you may think hard more than once: What is he better than me. Why is it him instead of me.
In the face of not being able to get it, even all sorts of hollowing-out efforts seem humble and ridiculous. You seem to be a transparent clown, no matter how funny you perform, no matter how humble position you put yourself, you don’t even hesitate to put your self-esteem on. Under your feet, in front of the audience, you are still transparent, and no one will give you affirmation or admiration for this.
But some clowns, even if there is no audience watching, will still perform hard, even if there are tears in their eyes and the corners of their mouths, they still have the biggest rise. Such a person is humble and noble in the face of not being able to get it.
Perhaps the clown who has reached such a realm is no longer praising the audience. All the audience, in his eyes, are nothing but Chinese cabbage. He performed with all his strength, just to live up to it. That's it for yourself. Such a person, his audience, is himself, his every move and style are all for himself; every appearance of him, he has himself astonished for himself; every time he turns, he has his own behavior Applaud yourself. Such people are called "self-pity" or "self-admiration of loneliness" in the secular society. However, I can't help but want to applaud such people. Perhaps their tricks are no longer beautiful, but they are still serious and persistent. Such people, I am afraid that the Buddhist school will be moved by it.
I heard that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, for his own mother, had aspired to save all the dead in hell. This great wish has not been fulfilled yet, and we also know that if there is hell, such a great wish would never be possible. Finished, but he has been doing this for a long time, and he has become a fairy. Although this is just a legend, and such legends abound in religious stories, although this kind of behavior is also a kind of obsession, but I really think this kind of obsession is great.
Therefore, I am also working hard, trying to become such a great and humble transparent clown.
