"Poetry" "Dream of the Red Chamber" Appreciation and Interpretation

One

Spring, from the earliest welcome spring, to the last tea, a **** is twenty-four flower letters. Dream of the Red Chamber" in the maid musk moon engine out of a flower sign: "open to the tea flower thing", is the Shaohua win extreme, send spring back to the meaning.

After the tea, summer lotus, pomegranate, autumn laurel, chrysanthemum, winter plum, and so on.

The Buddhists said, there are flowers on the other side of the shore, bloom for a thousand years, fall for a thousand years, the flowers and leaves never see each other. It is not the season of flowers, the Buddha walked by, will also blossom, because you are the soulmate.

There is a constant in the sky, not for Yao to survive, not for Jie to die. Time is relentless. The sun and the moon through the sky, the river on the ground, the sun and the moon and the river are the symbol of time. Confucius said, "What does heaven say? The four seasons are in motion, all things are born, what does heaven say?" "The passing of time is like the passing of the day and the night." Ancient sages said, "One cannot step into the same river twice", signaling the uniqueness of time, that is, the uniqueness of life.

But, time can take away our loved ones, take away our affection; can take away our friends, take away our friendship; can take away our youth, take away our memories.

"The dream breaks incense disappears forty years, Shenyuan willow old not blowing sheep. This body line as Jishan soil, still hanging trail a Hyun." The true feelings, can travel through time, into a variety of sentient and non-sentient components of all things, through the karma of past lives, the seasons, the cycle of life.

The real poetry is ultra-time, has its own life, can be reflected with the sun, moon and stars, can compete with the creation of heaven and earth; the real poetry, in the flow of time on this shore, the other shore, in the hundred gardens of poetry, always bloom vividly.

Four seasons, blossom and fall, willow, rain and snow fall, sunshine and sunset, weather. Every day is new. Nature is actually alive and sentient.

The world's civilization, the seasons bloom, only the Chinese civilization, Chinese poetry is a linear culture, continuous, born as yesterday, inherited.

Along the wave to discuss the source, vibrating leaves to find the root.

"The Book of Songs", anciently known as "Poetry" or "Poetry 300", is the countryside fields where the first people lived in the hundreds of grasses and thousands of flowers, with sound, color, life, feelings, thoughts, spirit, and real life.

"The sun's setting, sheep and cattle down." Treading broken sunset, straight as the eye; "Guan Guan Ju, in the river's continent." Sound cries, still in the ear.

Mencius said, "What exists in a person is not good enough for the eyes." There are glimpses of love in the Book of Poetry that have traveled through time to this day. Much of the later Chinese literature that depicts love as divine is in the glances, in the tradition of the Book of Songs.

Cao Xueqin, in Dream of Red Mansions, describes Lin Daiyu's appearance, highlighting only her eyebrows: "Two curved like knitting but not knitting bird's eye brows, a pair of like sobbing but not sobbing eyes with dew."

Zhu Yizun of the Qing Dynasty described his wife's sister: "The green moths reflecting lowly the Yue Shan look," portraying the image of a shy and delicate girl with eyebrows. In Ming Wang Shifu's The Story of the Western Wing, he wrote about Cui Yingying in Zhang Sheng's eyes: "How could she turn her eyes away?"

Li Qingzhao of the Southern Song Dynasty wrote about a young girl's heart: "It is only when her eyes move that she is guessed". Northern Song Dynasty Qin Guan appreciated Su Shi's concubine Chaoyun: "Beautiful as the spring garden, eyes like the morning sun."

Yang Guifei in the Tang Dynasty, "a smile, six palaces, no color", impressed the versatile Tang Xuanzong. In the Western Han Dynasty, Li Yannian's sister, "once you look at the city, then you look at the country", attracted the ambitious Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

The Warring States period Qu Yuan rewrote the "Nine Songs - Shao Shi Ming": "Full of beauty, suddenly alone with Yu Ruoxi eyes into." The transmission of love between humans and gods is also inseparable from eye contact communication.

From the "Dream of Red Mansions" upstream, both sides of the spring, when you see flowers clamped on the shore, weeds, this shore flowers, the other shore flowers, flowers in bloom, the four seasons.

"There is a beautiful person, clear and graceful." The woman's eyes are clear and bright, her eyes darting, looking and flowing, beautiful and charming, conveying the infinite love of the encounter.

"Coquettish smile, beautiful eyes look forward." It is lethal and penetrating, and its vitality can be felt under a thousand years.

From "Poetry" to "Dream of Red Mansions", it is the period of China's agricultural civilization, during which the national spirit carried by the bloodline.

The Earth is the only planet with life in the universe as far as we know, giving birth to human beings, which is the essence of heaven and earth that has never existed. Man is a part of nature, determined and governed by the laws of nature; he is also a spiritual being, determined and governed by the laws of morality. Man is thus the only being in the universe who has no counterpart, and is thus alone in heaven and earth.

Loneliness, the thirst for knowledge. As the Book of Songs says, "Calling his voice, seeking his friend's voice." The Records of the Grand Historian says: "The same light shines on each other, and the same kind of people seek each other."

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Yu Boya was good at playing the zither, and Zhong Ziqi was good at appreciating it. When Yu Bo Ya played the zither, he thought of high mountains in his heart, and Zhong Ziqi said, "Good, E'e Ruoxi is like Mount Tai!" When he thought of flowing water in his heart, Zhong Ziqi said, "Good, Oceanic Ruoxi is like a river!" After Zhong Ziqi's death, Yu Bo Ya thought he could not find his soulmate in the world anymore, so he stopped playing the zither for the rest of his life.

"Poetry" describes the inexorable, unattainable loneliness of the heart, to show the thirst for a soulmate, know that can not be done for the feelings, but also for future generations of writing to open unlimited doors. For example, "reed reed, white dew for frost. The so-called Iren, in the water side." "South there are trees, not to rest in thought. Han has a traveling girl, can not seek thought." "Out of its eastern gate, there are women like clouds. Though it is like a cloud, I can't think of it." "There is love, but no hope." "Those who know me say I'm worried, those who don't know me say what I want. The sky is long! What kind of person is this?"

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the Yue female sang when she sent the prince across the river, "There is wood in the mountains, and there are branches in the trees, and the heart pleases the king, and the king doesn't know it." The Nine Songs - Lady Xiang also said, "There are dahuricas in Yuan and orchids in Li, and I think of the prince without daring to speak."

On the eve of the unification of China by Qin Wengzheng, Jing Ke, in return for the kindness of Yan Taizi Dan, crossed the Yishui to assassinate Qin: "The wind is Xiao Xiao, the Yishui is cold, and the strong man is gone, but he will never return." When the battle between Chu and Han is about to come to an end, Xiang Yu, the king of Western Chu, listening to "Chu Ge" on all sides, could not help but ask the sky: "Zhui Bu Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru?"

"Nineteen Ancient Poems" in the star of Vega and Altair, "a watery place, the pulse is not allowed to speak." Chen Zi'ang of the early Tang Dynasty climbed to the Youzhou Terrace: "There is no one in front of me, and there is no one behind me." In the Middle Tang Dynasty, Liu Zongyuan was relegated to Liuzhou: "The spring breeze is infinite, and I want to pick apples and flowers without freedom."

Xin Qiji of the Southern Song Dynasty: "I've searched for him for thousands of degrees, but when I look back, he is in the end of the lights." Liu Kezhuang's Begonia: "The butterfly's coat is light, and the scarlet is small. It is said that the God of Heaven does not spare flowers, and that there are a hundred kinds and a thousand kinds of skillfulness. I see the trees flourish in the morning, but the branches are few in the evening. I think it's the God of Heaven that spares the flowers, but the rain washes them away and the wind blows them away."

At the end of the Jin Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, Yuan Haoqian said, "The sound of a vermilion string is still there, but it was a lonely heart at that time." Zhu Yizun in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties: "*** sleep a barge to listen to the autumn rain, small woven mat light coverlet each cold."

Cao Xueqin in the Qing Dynasty: "One is Langyuan Fairy, one is a flawless jade. If you say that there is no strange fate, this life has met him? If you say that there is a strange fate, how the heart of the final virtualization?" In Dream of the Red Chamber, when Jia Baoyu saw Lin Daiyu for the first time, he said, "I have seen this sister before." How can you not like it when you can meet a soulmate in life? When Lin Daiyu tears and died, Jia Baoyu "empty to the mountains of high priests crystallized snow, but not forget the world of fairy lonely forest".

"Encountering the encounter, suitable for me to wish". Life is enough to have a confidant, like Bo Ya Ziqi, Baoyu Daiyu, is unattainable. It's hard to meet a soulmate, and it's a pain in the neck for ancient literati and heroes***. So the southern dynasty LiuFo exclaimed: "know the voice of its difficult! The sound is difficult to know, know that it is difficult to meet, meet its know the voice, a thousand years of its ah!"

Confucius thirty, forty, fifty know the fate of heaven, but in the state of Lu is not encountered: "Gu Zhi Ya, Gu Zhi Ya, I wait for Jia also." He ran around with his students, chanting at times, "What grass is not yellow, what day is not. What man will not be, operating in all directions."

Sima Qian wrote the Historical Records, from Regulus to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, harboring his own disenchantment, which was not known at the time. He already knew that he would not be heard until later in his life, and that is why he "hid it in the famous mountains and passed it on to his people".

Li Shangyin was born in the Tang Dynasty, "Bull Li Party", in his father-in-law and his mentor wandering between the two camps, "false burden of cloud ten thousand zhang talent, lifelong embrace has not been opened". Wang Anshi in the Northern Song Dynasty, "new party", "old party" party dispute, citing Mencius as the spiritual pillar: "may not be the world is too broad, rely on the man to comfort the lonesome."

Yue Fei won a hundred battles, want to welcome back the two emperors, recover the Central Plains, snow Jingkang shame, but one day connected to the twelve gold medals to the division: "I want to put my heart on the yaoqin, know the voice of the lesser, the string breaks, who is there to listen?" Xin Qiji "strong age flag embracing ten thousand men", after the south ferry, longing to go back to the battlefield, but the opportunity to "look to the end does not come, the smoke and rain but wandering", "sometimes think to the hard to think of place, beat the broken railing people do not know.

The heroes of the war are the ones who have the most to gain.

The hero, who could have returned to the world to create a career, is often hard to fulfill his ambition.

There is gravity in the universe, and the earth has centrifugal and centripetal forces. The people are part of the nature, also have centrifugal force and centripetal force. This loneliness of searching for one's soulmate comes from human nature.

People often have a feeling of yearning and pursuit in their hearts, longing to go to the other side, pursuing perfection and realizing their ideals. Confucius "will be so, and will be so", the heart is still in this also. Buddha gave up his life to feed a tiger, Socrates drank hemlock and died, and Jesus was crucified, all of them knew it was impossible but did it. Just as the moon to the earth, the earth to the sun's escape, is also a kind of human destiny.

Man is dualistic, an animal of possibility. Life, though precious, can be given up. Jing Ke crossed the Yishui River in the west and died generously; Xiang Yu refused to cross the river and cut his own throat, both of them knew it was impossible to do so, and both of them are failed heroes. After the death of Jin, Yuan Hao Wen was determined to repair the history of Jin with his own strength, running for the ideal, completely disregarding the world's moral judgment: "Where to throw the ten years of the old hidden? A piece of sadness can not be painted."

There is also a centripetal force within the human heart to return to the body. People are born and leave their mother, adults say goodbye to childhood, travelers leave their hometowns, individuals leave the group, in the philosophical sense, people leave the body, and the desire to return to the body.

People and people, as individuals, thousands of differences, the interconnection is the heart, is the life of the **** sense. Confucius said, I want to be benevolent, Siren is enough. Socrates said, know thyself. Buddhism says, the sea of bitterness is boundless, turn back is the shore; Buddha nature do not seek outside; the true nature of Buddha is not born and not extinguished, in the green grass and rain, in a thousand mountains, in ten thousand waters. Ru Shi Tao and Western philosophers all believe that they have the Buddha nature, this heart is also one.

Traditional Chinese culture advocates that the tree is a thousand feet high, and the leaves return to their roots. The search for the source can bring people back to the heart, "This place is my hometown". The centrifugal force and centripetal force of human beings interact with each other to form a creative force.

Li Shangyin, "I will always remember my white hair when I return to the rivers and lakes, and I want to go back to heaven and earth in a flat boat"; Fan Zhongyan, "If you live high up in the temple, you will be worried about your people; if you are far away in the rivers and lakes, you will be worried about your king"; Zhu Yizun, "****sleeping in a barge to listen to the autumn rain, a small woven mat and a light cover are cold. Woven mat light cover each cold", all reflect the tension, reflecting the poet's inner moral and emotional tension.

From the Book of Songs to the Dream of the Red Chamber, the tradition of the Chinese literati is a culture of mediocrity that embodies this structure of tension: to be poor is to be alone, and to achieve is to help the whole world; to use is to act, and to give up is to hide. Traditional Chinese culture, as the so-called "gentle and generous", "joy without lust, sadness without hurt", "out of love, stop the rituals and ceremonies", the best embodiment of such a tension.

V

Traditional Chinese culture believes in the "unity of heaven and mankind", and that man and heaven are "connected". Although there is a gap of 2,000 to 3,000 years, we and the ancestors in the era of the "Book of Songs" are connected in terms of emotional experience.

People are different from birds, animals, grass and trees, but the point of life, is the same, there is a sense of life ****. Grass and trees, such as Lu Ji said: "sad leaves in the strong fall, like the soft stripes in the spring."

So Baoyu see the swallow also want to tears, see the flowers also want to obsession, is "love is not love", that is, nothing is not love, nowhere is not love. This is the philosophical basis of Confucius "poetry can be Xing", is a life of two, two born three, three born infinite moving.

"Xing" is an intuitive association, is to push oneself to others, is considerate. As Confucius, "Do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you." "The son of food on the side of the mourners, not tasted full." Baoyu's life is exactly "considerate".

According to holographic biology, the whole of an organism consists of parts that contain all the information of the whole. The whole lives in eternity, and eternity means no time. This is the physical basis for Confucius's "poetry can flourish".

The past, present, and future are all relative within the whole. As individuals, they carry the genes of the whole, and have the root of the whole. One can perceive the flow of time as a part, and the relentlessness of time as a whole, and feel the sentimentality of the bright moon, the willows, and the childishness of the inch of grass.

The creative technique of "Xing" is unique to Chinese poetry, and it chisels the ladder to heaven. "Xing" is the bridge between reality and ideal, the oar from this shore of experience to the transcendental shore. The other shore can never be reached, but with the wings of Hing, the bridge of Hing, the oars of Hing, and the ladder of Hing, we can reach it.

With the bridge of "Hing", with the oars of "Hing", with the ladder of "Hing", we can also see the garden on the other side.

Creation is mercurial, creation is merciless. The creation of billions of years to achieve a person, and with a split second to destroy a person, how can the love, where is the reason? This love is long, love is born from the heart, the heart of loneliness, loneliness blossom. Sometimes, the shadow of God is in the light of that light.
