What are the ancient mystery poems?

Poets tell their Zen-like epiphany or observation of things in their works. Such poems often have an ethereal realm that seems to be out of touch with the world.

1, the epiphany of life and nature.

Wang Wei, known as "Shi Fo", is a model in this respect. He wrote in my retreat in Zhongnanshan (villa):

After middle age, I have a strong kind heart, and I didn't settle down at the edge of Mount Zhongnan until my later years.

Interest concentration is often unique to play and have a happy thing to enjoy self-appreciation.

Sometimes go to the end of the water to seek the source, or sit and watch the ever-changing clouds rise.

Occasionally I met a village elder in the Woods, and I chatted with him until I often forgot to go home.

The predecessors praised the sentence "I will walk to the water to check my way, and then sit and watch the rising clouds" and thought it was ingenious. "I will go on until the water blocks my way" means to go anywhere you want. However, unconsciously, you came to the end of the running water, and there seemed to be no way out, so you sat down. "Then sit and watch the clouds rising in Ran Ran" is an extreme expression of carefree mood. Clouds give people a leisurely feeling and an unintentional impression, which is why Tao Qian said that "clouds come out unintentionally". Through the description of this line, the poet Wang Wei's leisure at this time is completely revealed. Su, a poet in the Song Dynasty, said, "This poem is wonderful, just like a masterpiece. Is there a picture in it? Judging from his poems, I know that in the dust, the surface of everything is also floating. " ("Tiaoxi Fishing in Conghua")

Liu Zongyuan, the master of the ancient prose movement, also has high attainments in this respect. His Fisherman is very interesting and picturesque.

The fisherman rests on the western hills at night, learns the clear water in the morning, and cooks for firewood.

Then, at sunrise, he walked through the fog. Alas, it was a green landscape.

Looking back, the fishing boat has drifted below the horizon, and white clouds are floating in the mountains, chasing each other.

The first sentence of the poem was written at night, which is still very common; It's strange to write the second sentence at dawn. It was common to get up early to draw water and make a fire, but "painting Hunan" and "burning bamboo poles" are novel words that readers have never heard of. The fact is that the Xiangjiang River draws water with a sieve, and the dead bamboo pays the bill. Instead of drawing water to burn wages, use "Qing Xiang" and "Zhu Zhu" instead, and the meaning of the poem is different. There is an extraordinary feeling here, which symbolizes the poet's lonely and noble character. The abnormal coinage here shows a special taste.

Write three or four sentences to sell cigarettes at sunrise, and the green mountains and green waters are the original appearance. Suddenly, I heard the paddle "Oh, it's a sound". It turns out that everyone is gone, only mountains and rivers are left. The coinage here is also very strange. "Selling cigarettes at sunrise" and "landscape green" are mutually causal and have nothing to do with "not seeing people", and "landscape green" has nothing to do with "alas". In the poem, "Then, at sunrise, he walked through the scattered mist, alas, it was a green landscape", which was extremely abnormal. But only two familiar sentences can be understood, conveying a sense of surprise; It is especially pleasant to hear the sound of paddles among the green mountains and green waters. The mountains and rivers seem greener and more lovely. Through such curiosity, the author wrote a somewhat mysterious realm, which vaguely conveyed his lonely mood, so he was not curious for the sake of curiosity.

2. Observation of things. The understanding of philosophy here is not expressed abstractly, but expressed by visual means.

The first is to express it with the help of scenery. For example, Wang Zhihuan swallowed the world's "Looking at the Heron Lodge":

The sun sets slowly near the western hills, and the Yellow River flows into the East China Sea.

By going up one flight of stairs, look further.

The first two sentences of the poem, "The mountains cover the day, and the sea drains the golden river", are about the scenery seen from the stairs. Wrote a spectacular scene, magnificent momentum. Here, the poet uses extremely simple and plain language, and in just ten words, he highly vividly summarizes the rivers and mountains that Wan Li has entered a broad field of vision. The first sentence says that the sun sets, which is the scenery of the sky, the vision and the western scenery; The Yellow River flows to the sea from the ground to the horizon, from near to far, and from west to east. When the two poems are combined, the scenery of up and down, far and near, and things are all included in the poem pen, which makes the picture look particularly broad and distant. As far as the second sentence is concerned, the poet is in the Yellow Crane Tower and can't see the Yellow River entering the sea. The sentence is written in the middle of the poem, which is a way to combine the foreground with the sky. This writing increases the breadth and depth of the picture.

In three or four poems, the poet wants to see the distant scenery as far as possible, and even wants to climb to the top of the building. The poem seems to simply describe the process of climbing stairs, which is far-reaching and intriguing. There is a poet's enterprising spirit, a forward-looking mind, and a philosophy of standing high before seeing far.

Secondly, it is expressed through the details in life. A typical example is Su Shi's poem "The Evening Scene of the Spring River in Hui Chong":

Two or three peach blossoms outside the bamboo forest and ducks in the water first noticed the warm spring.

The beach is covered with wormwood, asparagus is beginning to sprout, and puffer fish are preparing to swim upstream from the sea back to the river.

Su Shi grasped several typical details of early spring here and wrote them without modification, forming a vivid and mellow riverside picture. The sentence "Duck Prophet in Spring River Plumbing" reproduces the ducks swimming in the Spring River, and points out the main scenes of "Duck Drama". However, not only that, it also reveals the "inner world" of the ducks that can't be expressed in the picture through the language of the "warm duck prophet", writes the consciousness that the ducks keenly feel the spring water changing from cold to warm, and writes the expression that the ducks swim, play and love the spring water in it, which makes the ducks in the painting lifelike and writes the spirit! As a result, Facebook was full of vitality, filled with the intoxicating breath of spring back to the earth.

Xilinbi (Su Shi)

See the peak on the side of the ridge in the original poem, and the distance is different. I can't recognize the true face of Lushan Mountain because I am there.

Philosophers observe things from different positions and angles and come to different conclusions. Only when people get rid of subjective and objective limitations, stay out of Lushan Mountain and have foresight can they really see the true face of Lushan Mountain. To understand the essence of things, we must observe them from all angles, both objectively and comprehensively.

Qin Shi (Song Sushi)

If the original poem says there is a piano sound, why not put it in the box? If the piano sounds from your hands, why can't you hear the sound?

Music with wonderful philosophy is an organic whole, which is composed of several parts and elements that influence and restrict each other. In music and piano sound, fingers, piano, players' thoughts and feelings, playing skills and other parts and elements are interdependent and indispensable, influencing and restricting each other, and there is a close relationship. According to materialist dialectics, the fundamental content of universal connection is the connection between the parties to the internal contradictions of things and between things. So what this song reveals is the contradictory relationship between piano, fingers and piano sound. If the players are included, then the relationship between the players' thoughts, feelings and skills and the piano and fingers can be regarded as the relationship between the internal contradictions (internal causes) and external contradictions (external causes) of things. The former is the basis of music production, and the latter is the condition of music production, both of which are indispensable.

Reflections on Reading (Song Zhuxi)

As soon as the pond, which was originally half an acre square, was opened, the sky and clouds lingered. As clear as water? Because there is inexhaustible living water for it.

Philosophy takes the pond as a metaphor, explaining that the method of learning is to accumulate and absorb new nutrients. Everything is moving, changing and developing, and everything can maintain its existence only in movement. It is this uninterrupted movement, change and development that makes things exist in constant self-renewal. Once this movement stops, things can't exist. If there is no constant renewal and accumulation of knowledge, one's knowledge will become a stagnant pool, lifeless and without progress. Learning is like this, and so is doing other things.
