What is the case of unintentionally planting willows and willows to create shade, but intentionally planting flowers but not blooming?

A pair of masters and servants in "A Dream of Red Mansions", the young lady Zhen Yinglian of the Zhen Mansion and the maid Jiao Xing of the Zhen Mansion. The two masters and servants responded to the saying, "If you plant flowers intentionally, they will not bloom, but if you plant willows unintentionally, they will become shades."

At that time, Jia Yucun was living in the Calabash Temple next to Zhen Mansion. He looked down and out, but he was very close to Zhen Shiyin. One day, he was flipping through poetry books in the study room of Zhen Mansion. He accidentally saw a young and beautiful woman pinching flowers, and he was stunned. The one pinching the flowers is the maid Jiao Xing.

When Jiao Xing pinched the flowers and was about to leave, she suddenly looked up and saw someone staring at her blankly in the window. Jiao Xing turned around and thought to herself: "This life is so majestic, yet so ragged. , My family did not have such poor relatives or friends.

Later, Jia Yucun went to Beijing to take the exam and became an official. Yinglian struggled to live in the hands of human traffickers. At the age of twelve, she finally met the right person. I thought that my miserable life was finally over, but fate played a pale joke on Yinglian. However, Jiaoxing, the maid of Yinglian's family, only looked back twice with doubts, which made her embark on a new journey. A life of hanging.

If you plant flowers intentionally, they will not bloom, but if you plant willows unintentionally, they will create shade.

From the ancient saying: "Zengguang Xianwen" means: Plant flowers carefully, fertilize, irrigate, etc. I did a lot, but the flowers never bloomed, and finally withered; and a willow branch that was broken off randomly and inserted into the ground without any care, turned into a lush willow tree after a few years.

It is a metaphor that if you want to do something, you have spent a lot of energy and effort, but the result is not as expected. In Taoist terms, things can go smoothly and get good results. Of course, nothing can be forced. It can also be seen from the side that the willow tree has a strong vitality.

Planting flowers with intention will not bloom, but planting willows with intention

Plant with intention. p>

The flowers planted intentionally did not bloom, but the willow branches accidentally inserted became a willow shade.

It means that what you wanted to get with your heart was not obtained, but you got it unexpectedly. Harvest.

In fact, this is a philosophy left to the world by the Buddha. It is a vision of those who are ambitious!
