The Kuanzhai philosophy of Kuanzhai Alley

I visited Kuanzhai Alley more than ten years ago, and my impression of it was vague. Recently, I have been exploring new things again.

Kuanzhai Alley Pedestrian Street, located in the core of Chengdu’s central city, is the last remnant of Chengdu’s three thousand years of Shaocheng culture and three hundred years of Mancheng culture. It is a building that integrates northern Hutong culture and Western Sichuan residential courtyards. The "only copy" of the style in southern cities. Introduction from the Internet

Tell me about the Kuan Niao philosophy that I feel. I saw two calligraphy posters of Kuan and Narrow in the Memory Sichuan store. I remember them deeply and highlighted the essence of the Kuan and Narrow philosophy.

If the heart is narrow, it will be wide and narrow. If the heart is wide, it will be narrow and wide.

Is the road narrow if the heart is broad? Wisdom lies in tolerance

Be more tolerant and generous. This may be the advice we often hear in our daily lives. If you have a broad mind and don't worry about things in a big way, you will be able to live a wiser life. The cultural district here provides a real-life display of Kuanzhai culture for you to travel around and experience the Kuanzhai philosophy immersively.

Each store seems to incorporate the essence of Kuanzhai to express its own characteristics. I took pictures of several sets of special texts, including plaque names, couplets, store names, posters, etc.

In the name of Tianqu store, the word "Tianqu" alone makes people feel the joy of enjoying the world and being at ease with the world.

This set of couplets "Broadside inherits the word "Bai Ren", The reputation of the family is close to the rain chapter"

I looked up the story of Zhang Bairen during the Tang Dynasty. He was a generous man and determined to endure 100 things. Nine generations lived under the same roof. His family was prosperous and he was famous. . The broad and narrow philosophy is demonstrated appropriately.

If the first sight of life were just like the first sight, why would the autumn wind draw a fan sadly?

Anyone with a little bit of education can think of this poem. When I looked up and zoomed in to take pictures, pedestrians passing by looked at me taking pictures and read out this poem. Life would be so wonderful if it were just like the first time we met, and we should maintain the mentality of first meeting. In all aspects, we must maintain the cautious attitude of a beginner who has just met his first intention.

That’s it, forget it, that’s all, don’t bother anymore. Lu Xun, the sober man in the world, has a famous "Ji Ji Ji"

Mr. Lu Xun wrote a passage in "Ji Ji Ji": A man downstairs was dying of illness, and the family in the next room was singing on the gramophone, and opposite Get kids. On the wall were two people laughing wildly, and there was the sound of playing cards. There is a woman on a boat in the river crying for her dead mother. Human beings' joys and sorrows are not the same, I just think they are noisy.

When Li Bai was about to enter the wine glass, he was so calm and free-spirited that he did not stop here. If you are proud of life, you must have all the joy, and don't let the golden bottle stand empty against the moon. It is my nature that my talents will be useful, and I will come back after all my money has been spent. Li Bai's wine glass filled with the dew and nectar flowing down from the clouds. He leaned on the wine jar and gently shook his folding fan. He closed his eyes slightly drunk and drank with the heaven and earth...

Compassion and joy

Compassion Joy and equanimity is the spirit repeatedly advocated in the Agama Sutra to the Mahayana sutras. The infinite expansion and infinite deepening of kindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity are called great kindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity, and are called the "four immeasurable hearts," or the "four Brahma dwellings" (four kinds of pure and untainted hearts). ——Quoting Internet Interpretation

For advanced interpretations, just quote directly.

The warp and weft are intertwined. People who can warp and weft the world at their fingertips are great people. Ingenuity is difficult to maintain, and people who use their fingertips to navigate the universe are so clear in their hearts.

I once watched a Japanese animated movie "Morning Flowers and Evening Oaths". The tribe of the girl who never grows old is engaged in weaving cloth, and they weave time into their lives. Inexplicably, I feel that time passes slower for the craftsmen who are engaged in hand-woven and embroidered artworks...

This time I asked the shop assistant the difference between Shu embroidery and Su embroidery, and I learned that Shu embroidery is one of the four famous names in China. The head of embroidery.

Zhenzhen is a handmade pearl stall. "Zhen" probably refers to pearls. Understand yourself again and cherish all the joys in the world, just like the phrase "Cherish the small joys in the world" I saw before and used it as a signature on social networking sites. Cherish every bit of beauty and joy, and don’t begrudge the smallest happiness. There are not so many great joys and great tragedies in life. If you seize those small blessings and joys and experience them well, you will feel that the road of life will be easier to walk.

Harmony, width and width

Here is a calligrapher creating calligraphy and painting on the spot, selling fans and scroll paintings. He was just writing quietly there, completely ignoring the tourists coming and going.

Those who understand will naturally understand, and those who are willing to buy will naturally buy. Appreciation of the art of calligraphy cannot be forced. Artists and craftsmen are proud. When I saw another silversmith working, he kept his head down and hammered the pattern carving on the silverware in his hand. He never looked at us staring for a second. of idle passers-by.

Zifei is obviously taken from Zhuangzi. "Zhuangzi" Autumn Water Chapter: You are not a fish, you know the joy of fish. Don't judge others by your own eyes. Happiness is a personal subjective feeling. We still need to be tolerant and accept the diversity of the world.

Finally, just for confession

Walking in the wide and narrow alleys, practice hard and relax your mind.
