What is spring like in Jin Jide in spring, summer, autumn and winter?

"Spring" has been divorced from the pornography and violence in Jin Jide movies, but it is like a natural ink painting, which outlines the elegance of a paradise and is full of tone sandhi of human nature and dark change of spiritual turmoil. In tracing back to Park Xu-chan, through the interactive description between the young monk and the old monk, the author expressed his metaphysical thinking on human soul and karma.

First of all, spring

The young monk tied a rope with stones to fish, frogs and snakes, which made the children laugh briskly. Unexpectedly, it was the sin in his heart that led to the death of the fish and snake. The old monk tied a stone to the young monk, which is a punishment for the gradually revealed desire and a test of the young monk's nature. In view of the anger of the old monk and the repentance of the young monk, Jin Jide has designed a design that pays attention to time and space.

Second, summer.

The monk's bedroom, with a door, is an empty space in Buddhism, which ritually explains the guidance and premise of spiritual return. This door also means sticking to the boundaries and the inevitable suffering of spiritual rebellion. The young monk who grew up just ignored the existence of the door and came to the bed of the beautiful patroness to be very much in love. Secular desires gradually germinated in his heart, deviating from the nature of monks coming and going naked.

At the same time, the awakening of his personal lust coincides with the hints and symbolic meanings of dead fish and dead snakes. The scene in which he teased the patroness with Cao Meng also showed the transcendence and yearning for nature in Taoist thought. This allowed him to completely cross the boundary between monks and nuns, and proved the correctness of his desire by making love several times. His secularization and the departure of his patroness after being driven away by the old monk also show the limitations of Buddhist thought. Because he gained valuable sexual experience in the romantic secret communication with his patroness, which he had never experienced in his monotonous monastic career.

When the young monk and the patroness were caught on the boat, the old monk took the boat to the shore with a chicken as the guide, opened the floodgate and let the boat drown and capsize, which was the second punishment for the young monk according to the plot of spring. The appearance of chicken means the traction of the critical point, and the overturned water symbolizes the desire and the feeling of making mistakes in life, which has been clarified as heresy in Buddhism. However, it should be noted that the old monk never showed his humanistic characteristics and desires in the summer, but all showed a high standard of moral posture, symbolizing the heroic strength of the police that was incompatible with secular happiness.

Third, autumn.

When the secular young monk reached middle age, he returned to the land of the old monk because he killed his wife, and the cycle of the world was related to chenchen. He put "closed" paper on his eyes and mouth as the end of war and self-punishment. The old monk was as strict as ever, beating the middle-aged man with a stick and hanging him, but when the flame of the candlestick burned the rope, he would automatically put it down. As a harsh carrier, the old monk described Jin Jide's own unique views and feelings about the churning of the sea. This also reflects Jin Jide's peculiar mentality of praising desire and denying it.

The old monk wrote Prajna Paramita on the floor of Fusheng Temple with a cat's tail, which means that middle-aged people will be reborn after experiencing the disaster of temptation, and they will be redeemed after carving these Buddhist scriptures. Rooster and cat, as animals lower than human beings, eventually become the carriers to save human beings. This has always reflected Jin Jide's transcendental spirit and consciousness beyond historical norms, trying to bring a humanistic escape into the film construction and tell the world with brilliance and beauty.

At the moment when two policemen took the middle-aged man away, the old monk kept the boat with his strong ideas and let the police row it away. This kind of boat-setting plot reflects the old monk's detached mind and mind, and still retains some human empathy. Otherwise, Buddhist precepts and compassion will become eternal killing tools, and Jin Jide doesn't want to create and render a world with justice but no spiritual compassion and forgiveness.

The old monk finally put a piece of paper with the word "closed" on his eyes and mouth and sat on the boat and set himself on fire. Because the old monk's general knowledge was straightforward, he finally brought the essence of Buddhism back to heaven. He believes that everything on the earth is purely self-sufficient, and he would rather treat the life he was responsible for guarding with a strong character. The death of the old monk means that the killing in spring is budding, the lust, caution and taboo in summer are taboo, and the feeling and redemption in winter will appear after the surge of fighting in autumn.

Fourth, winter.

After a prison disaster, the middle-aged man returned to the Shuiyuan where he was born and began to practice kung fu. He saw a veiled patroness with a child come to the shrine and cry. At night, the patroness accidentally fell into the ice water and drowned. The next morning, the old man played by Jin Jide rescued her child. The patroness has been covering her face, not giving the old man a close-up of his face when he took off his mask. The audience can see Jin Jide's efforts to keep the narrative calm, which is accompanied by mystery and needs to be described in a romantic way. The old man raised the children of women of unknown origin, tied stones with ropes, and brought a Buddhist shrine to the hillside out of a need to look down on all beings.

Five, another spring

The child has grown into a young monk. He put stones in the mouths of small fish, frogs and snakes, and let them suffocate, giving out pure, bronze-like laughter. And if fish means freedom and love, and snake means metaphorical lust, what kind of waves will the young monk set off when he grows up? This is the end of the movie. Two halves of beans
