What is so beautiful about the Psalms, which have been stunning for 3,000 years?

The Book of Poetry has endured for 3,000 years precisely because it carries a long history, responds to the true knowledge of life, and its elegant melodies, all of which are what makes it beautiful. When it comes to the Classic of Poetry, I'm sure most people can recite a few classic verses, such as ? Guan Guan Ju, on the river's continent, My Fair Lady, Gentleman's Marty? etc.

According to the records, the poems included in the Book of Songs are from the Western Zhou Dynasty until the Spring and Autumn Period, during which time there have been people who have been intermittently writing these amazing verses. However, because of the long period of time, we have no way to know the exact author, which is also a pity. But it is a blessing that these verses can be seen by us a thousand years later. This is where the depth and richness of Chinese culture is reflected, and the heaviness and vicissitudes of history have shrouded the Book of Songs in mystery.

The more than 300 poems in the Book of Songs reflect all aspects of people's lives at that time, depicting for us the life of our ancestors. It is an encyclopedia of the Zhou Dynasty, covering the love between lovers, organizing feasts, and even some astronomy and geography. Under the careful reading can also be found in the experience of dealing with the world and life philosophy, can be said to be full of the wisdom of the ancestors.

What many people don't know is that the 300 psalms of the Book of Songs can be recited, and this judgment is justified. Because Confucius once said this about the Book of Poetry: ? All three hundred poems can be chanted? What the ancients said about chanting and what we say today about singing are not the same thing, but the tunes recited were exceptionally good, winding around the beam for three days, marvelous. "The Book of Psalms" has a long history of flavor, as well as the life of the firewood, rice, oil and salt, and chanting out of the elegant and beautiful, these qualities are exactly where the beauty of it.
