Chapter 116: Xiao Sa's autumn scenery, the mountains and rivers are long

Writing Realm:

As soon as you have a feeling, you can write an essay with a feeling.

The second proposition is to give the proposition and be able to write the text.

Third, you can write anything with a feeling, and you can write a better essay.

The realm of literature and art:

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, Hongru Guowei said in his book "Words in the World": "Those who have become great undertakings and ask questions in ancient times must go through three kinds. ”

The first realm: "Last night, the west wind withered the green trees." Go up to the tall building alone and look at the end of the world. This phrase comes from Yan Shu's "Butterfly Loves Flowers", the original meaning is to say, "I" go up to the tall building to look at the more sassy autumn scenery I see, the west wind and yellow leaves, the mountains and rivers are long, how can the case book be reached?

In Wang Guowei's sentence, it is explained that those who become great careers in learning must first have persistent pursuit, climb high and look far, look at the path, clarify the goal and direction, and understand the outline of things.

The second realm is "the belt gradually widens and does not regret it, and it makes people haggard for Yi." This is a quote from the last two sentences of Liu Yong's "Butterfly Loves Flowers" in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the original words are to show the author's hardships in love and his regrets in love. If the word "Yi" is understood as the ideal pursued by the poet and the career he has engaged in all his life, it is not indispensable.

Wang Guowei has ulterior motives, and uses these two sentences to compare it to a big career and a university questioner, which is not easy and casual, and must be unswerving.

The third realm "looked for him thousands of times, and suddenly looked back, but the person was there, and the lights were dim." It is the last four sentences in the quotation of the Southern Song Dynasty Xin Qiji's "Qingyu Case". Liang Qichao called this word "self-pity and loneliness, and sad people have no embrace". This is a loanword. There is no negotiation with literary appreciation.

Wang Guowei has already stated to himself, "I can work without entanglement." He used the last four sentences of the word as the third of the "realm", that is, the ultimate highest realm.

Although this is not the original meaning of Xin Qiji, but it can also lead to a long and long-term meaning, to do learning, to achieve a great career, to reach the third realm, must have the spirit of concentration, repeated pursuit, research, and hard work, will naturally be through. There are discoveries. If you invent something, you can move from the kingdom of necessity to the kingdom of freedom.

The "realms" mentioned above mainly refer to the cultivation or degree that people can achieve, and the theory of the three realms has obvious significance of progression.

Wang Guowei's "Words in the World" also divides the "realm" from other perspectives. For example, "there is a realm of me." There is no realm of self. Tearful eyes asked Huahua silently. The red flies over the swing', 'The lonely hall is closed in the cold spring, and the cuckoo is in the sunset'. There is my realm too. 'Picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan', 'cold waves surging, white birds leisurely down', the realm of no self. There is my realm, I look at things, so everything is my color. In the realm of selflessness, we look at things with things, so we don't know what is me and what is things.

The ancients are words, and there are many people who write about my realm. However, it is not possible to write about the realm of selflessness, which can be self-established in heroic people. In addition, he also has multiple perspectives such as "the realm has sizes", "there is a created environment, there is a writing environment, and the two schools of 'ideal' and 'realism' are divided into two schools", such as "the realm is large and small", "there is a created environment, there is a written environment", and so on.

In Taoism, heaven is nature, and man is a part of nature. Therefore, Zhuangzi said: "If there are people, there is heaven, and if there is heaven, there is also heaven." "Heaven and man are one. However, due to the formulation of various rules and regulations and moral norms, people have lost their original natural nature and become out of harmony with nature. The purpose of human practice is to "abandon the holy and abandon wisdom", to break down these barriers imposed on the human body, to liberate human nature, to return to nature, and to achieve a spiritual realm of "all things are one with me".

The spiritual realm in Taoism, Taoism divides life into three realms: the heavenly realm, the human realm, and the earthly realm.

People living in the heavenly realm are kind, desireless, wise, and disease-free in the realm of immortals.

People living in the human world have seven emotions and six desires, birth, old age, sickness and death, and the troubles of wanting but not seeking them.

People who live in the realm of the earth are also called the realm of demons and monsters. For example, people often call "perverts", "murderers", "fox spirits", etc., these are living in the realm of the earth.

The spiritual realm in Buddhism is the antithesis of the three kinds of non-action liberation, such as the realm of desire, the realm of color, the realm of colorlessness, or the realm of disconnection, detachment, and extinction.

The Three Realms refer to the realm of desire, the realm of color, and the realm of colorlessness where sentient beings live. This is the delusional sentient being, which circulates in the changes of birth and death, according to the three levels of its realm, also known as the three beings of life and death, or simply the three beings. Because the suffering of the Three Realms is as boundless as the sea, it is also called the Bitter Realm and the Bitter Sea.

The realm of desire, that is, the realm of lust, lust, lust, appetite and other sentient beings. From the sixth to the heavens, including the four continents of the human world, down to the infernal hell and other twenty places, because men and women live in the world, there are many desires, so it is called the world of desire.

The color world, the color is the righteousness of change or manifestation, which is far away from the world of lust and appetite, and still has pure color and other sentient beings. Above the realm of desire, there is no desire to stain, and there is no female form, and all beings in this realm are born from incarnation, and its palace is tall and is born from the incarnation of color, and everything is wonderful and exquisite. Because it still has color quality, it is called the color world. This realm is divided into four levels according to the depth and subtlety of meditation, from the beginning of Zen Brahma to the end of Agatra, where there are eighteen days.

The colorless realm is only the world where the four minds of receiving, thinking, acting, and knowing, and there is no material sentient being. There is no material thing in this world, nor does it have a body, a palace, or a land, but the mind dwells in profound meditation, so it is called the colorless world. This realm is above the color realm, and there are four heavens (the sky where there is no boundlessness, the sky where there is no boundlessness, the sky where there is no possession, and the heaven where you don't want to think about it), also known as the four colorless places and the four empty places.

The philosopher Feng Youlan once said in the book "New Primitive Man" that the difference between man and other animals is that when man does something, he understands what he is doing and consciously does it. It was this realization that made what he was doing meaningful to him.

He does all kinds of things with various meanings, and all kinds of meanings are combined into a whole, which constitutes his state of life. Different people may do the same thing, but each person has a different level of awareness, and what they do means different things to them.

Everyone has their own state of life, and it is not exactly the same as any other individual. Regardless of these individual differences, we can divide the different realms of life into four levels.

Starting from the lowest, they are: the natural realm, the utilitarian realm, the moral realm, and the heaven and earth realm.

A person may simply follow his instincts or the customs of his society. Like a child and primitive man, he does what he does, but he is not aware of it, or he is not very aware of it. In this way, what he does has no meaning or very little meaning to him. His state of life is what I call the natural realm.

A person may be aware of himself and do all sorts of things for himself. This does not mean that he is necessarily immoral. He can do things that have the consequences of benefiting others and are motivated by self-interest. Therefore, all kinds of things he does have utilitarian significance for him. His state of life is what I call the utilitarian realm.

There are also people who may understand the existence of society and are a member of society. This society is a whole, and he is a part of this whole. With this understanding, he does all kinds of things for the benefit of society, or as Confucianism says, he does things for the sake of "righteousness and not profit." He is truly a moral person, and all he does is ethical behavior that conforms to a strict moral sense. Everything he did had a moral meaning. So his state of life is what I call the moral realm.

At the end of the day, one may learn that there is a larger whole beyond the whole of society, the universe. He is not only a member of society, but also a member of the universe. He was a citizen of the social organization, and at the same time what Mencius called a "man of heaven." With this understanding, he does all sorts of things for the good of the universe. He understands the meaning of what he is doing and realizes that he is doing what he does. This realization constitutes the highest state of life for him, which is what I call the realm of heaven and earth.

When it comes to the realm in life, it is the highest realm of love, the highest realm of service, the new realm of fashion, the new realm of lazy people, and the highest realm of car technology, we are unconsciously pursuing a realm.

What is the realm? It is only in your hearts and mine. (To be continued......)
