The night was thick and light, and the winter couch should be warm. I remembered that Nanshi had been silent for more than a year, and I wanted to write something. On the full moon night in the early autumn of last year, the bright moon appeared in my memory, and the osmanthus vomited fragrance. When I heard the news of Nanshi's silence from my mother who had meditated in Hualin Garden for seven days, I didn't feel any grief at Nanshi's departure. After reading Nanshi's book, I always felt that there was a close connection between my heart and this great awakened person who came from the dream with perfect wisdom, Sometimes when reading a book, you can even read the mood of Nanshi when he wrote the sentence.
A few days ago, I went to Hangzhou for a holiday with my parents. It's more like a little cozy this year than a holiday. Hangzhou has always been my dream place. It feels like a world stranded in this landscape, and there are many memories in my soul. Living in the dim yellow light halo of the winter solstice, even the restlessness in the soul has been erased. It is as quiet as in the arms of my mother, or as a dream that is unwilling to wake up easily. He Ling was drunk for a thousand days and spared no time in two or three spring, accompanied by the beautiful landscape of Zhong Lingjun. The stupa of a generation of eminent monk Hongyi was also located in the Hupao Temple in Hangzhou. Although there is no temple there now, the monk dreamed that the two tigers moved the spring. After waking up, he followed the memory in his dream and really found the story of the spring eye, which still made the tiger running spring full of aura. This time we went to Hangzhou, especially to the Hupao Temple to pay homage to the Buddhist relic tower of Master Hongyi. The bamboo spring flows with wind and calms the billows, just like the mind of my teachers and students to uphold the precepts and promote the Dharma, like a Buddha in the world, crossing all the connections. In front of Master Hongyi's stupa, there is a pavilion inscribed "Yang
After Nanshi passed away, I wanted to write an article in memory of the teacher who was often mentioned by my mother when I was a child, but ultimately, I was destined to be strong. I always feel that I must be a student of Nanshi. He and I have such a similar ambition of Shu Shi, but they come at different times with their wishes. The interpreter is the Buddha spirit, which fills the universe as if it were perfect without moving. Nanshi came by vow to enlighten the Buddha nature buried in the root nature of all beings, and reveal the supreme wisdom of nirvana to the hundreds of millions of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas who have incarnated in the Saha world. Clean the dirt, restore the emptiness and brightness. The mind is like a mirror, reflecting thousands of things, all of which are wonderful wisdom of thousands of Buddhas and all kinds of methods. Naturally, thousands of rivers have water and thousands of rivers have moon.
Nanshi's mind is that the rivers and seas are full of waves, and when the Tai River is exhausted, the ruins will return to the ruins. The rivers will not be exhausted, and the ruins will not be full. Just like Bodhi, when he stays in the world for a long time, he will not increase, not destroy, not dirty, not clean, and not increase, not decrease. It is achievement that will lead to the future.
Climb up the ancient temple to look into the distance and chat for a long time. When you travel across the river, you will wander through the jungle. When you are standing on the sand, you will be able to wash your feet. The splendor of the cassock is dignified, with treasure pestle and white elephant. The dynasty started in the ancestral court, so why should we be afraid of the danger of blocking the secluded valley. Sleeping in the plain at night, Luo Zhiyi made felt. It is night, and the teacher travels to the bottom of the moon. The wind is like water, and the water is like frost and moss, but the light covers the body without feeling cold, and you are carefree, full and exciting, He sighed with regret that once through the ages, he has gained praise, lost praise and lost praise. He is still dignified and upright, and has never lost weight. Teacher said:“ The spider has a small amount of silk, or a large collection of economic fibers in its belly, or it can spin silk on its head, or cover the curtain of heaven and earth. Its spring and autumn
I have been in Holland and London for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games this week. In fact, I can enjoy it without jet lag. It's a pity that I didn't take a holiday with my work this time. After that, the video TV made a small supplement, but it was not very amazing.
Of course, this standard is relative to the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. In any case, that year was destined to become a true epic. Introduction, high mountains and flowing water, beautiful; Two thousand eight Chinese men hit the Fou upside down and their voices shook their hearts. As for the 29 firework footprints, they were totally unprecedented and probably unprecedented. After all, the Olympics is about culture. Chinese culture has not appeared in the mainstream of the world for hundreds of years. Moreover, the failure of modern times and the rapid rise in the last three decades have made it urgent to show ourselves to the world. This urgent psychology, together with the truly magnificent cultural heritage and the huge power available, will inevitably result in an unprecedented feast.
London has hosted the Olympic Games for the third time. Britain is the hegemon before the world war and the holy land of post-war popular culture. Mentally, they are more natural and relaxed, and humor and ridicule are more casual. London hopes to show the power of modern history, and the huge chimney rising from the ground, together with many pop singers, is really shocking. However, although there are farms, industrial revolution and freedom in the future, the sense of history is slightly weak. Maybe this is the style of different cultures among countries, the opening ceremony of China

Some people say that in reality, there are two "China on the tip of the tongue".
"One is the tip of the tongue China shown by this grand documentary of CCTV with the help of alluring food and warm stories, the other is the tip of the tongue China shown by countless food scandals in daily social news. China on the tip of the tongue, full of sunshine and emotion, is composed of simple, warm, beautiful, attractive, humanistic care, grandma's tears, mother's hands, and hometown memories; On the other hand, China is full of darkness and dirt, which is written by harmful additives, gutter oil, whitening powder, clenbuterol, pesticide residues, fluorescent powder and trans fatty acid. "
Aesthetic lens and real life, there is no true or false. The Chinese food culture, as well as the thousands of years of thanksgiving for the extraction and production of ingredients, do exist. We may have forgotten the practice and even the taste of many delicious foods, but when we can see them on TV, we are moved by the natural and ingenious colors and smells. But China's food problem in recent years is also an indisputable fact. Someone once made an investigation and listed food safety incidents in the past five years. When I only wrote my name and didn't give a brief introduction, I could not help feeling: God, we are still alive! Food is tempting, but when the focus of screening is shifted from "what's delicious" to "what else to eat", the good mood will disappear.
This kind of social level problem, I'm afraid that individuals can't follow the root
It is still China on the Tongue.
The western and eastern views on food are as distinct as their philosophical systems. In the West, where rationality and humanity are paramount, nutrition must be guaranteed regardless of the color, fragrance, taste and shape of food. How many calories, vitamins and proteins you need to take in a day has become a habit. Therefore, even if the taste is the same, reason tells people that they must eat it because it is nutritious. Westerners value fresh ingredients. They don't know what fried food is, because they mostly eat raw and cold food - raw and cold ingredients are the freshest. Even if they want to eat cooked food, they just scald, fry, or bake it. Such cooking will not taste, but it will definitely keep the original flavor of the food.
While the East is a perceptual diet, it pursues an artistic conception that is difficult to express, that is, to use what people usually call "color, fragrance, taste, shape, and utensil" to concretize this artistic conception, which is probably still difficult to cover comprehensively. In terms of the relationship with food materials, unlike the western demand for more tools and usability of food or livestock, the oriental people and food materials are just like everything in the world. They are integrated with heaven and earth, and eat as they worship heaven. They sincerely face food and cook carefully; Serve the dishes affectionately to the beloved.
In the film, after the Tibetans in Shangri la dug up matsutake, in order to continue this natural gift, they would cover up the fungus pit to prevent the mycelium from being damaged, which is a rule that Tibetans have always adhered to; In Jilin Province

I took a break from my busy schedule and watched two episodes of China on the Tip of the Tongue. It suddenly felt that this would be a representative work of Chinese documentaries in my mind for a long time. In a short period of time, the most popular TV drama in China is no longer a Korean TV idol drama, but a simple documentary, which is no longer simple.
"China has a large population, as well as the most abundant and diverse natural landscape in the world. No country has such a large number of potential food raw materials. People collect, pick up, dig, and fish in order to get the gift of this nature. When we are far away from nature to enjoy delicious food, we should be most grateful to these people who have paid their labor and wisdom, and nature takes her generosity and trustworthiness as the reward and reward for human beings. "
This is the introduction to the first episode of The Gift of Nature. For China, the esophagus is the way of heaven, and the diet culture is deeply rooted in the marrow. If a nation's total achievements in coping with its growing environment can be described as civilization, then the lifestyle formed under this civilization is culture. The outbreak of this food culture accumulated over the next thousand years is too easy to move a society where the economy is developing at a high speed and people have no time to stop thinking, let alone go back and settle down. Look at buckwheat noodles, Hele Youpo noodles, Zhejiang yellow rice wine pickled Jinhua ham, and Yunnan Dali milk fans. These fresh ingredients and recipes stimulate our vision and taste buds, and touch people's dusty memories. No one who studies, works and settles down in a foreign country has ever tried the whole day Chinese
At the beginning of this month, someone posted a ironic message on the Internet:
"The Thirteen Hairpins in Jinling, shot by Zhang Yimou, was refused to be shown in Japan and directly banned. Can't we? Japan's "Chaste Son" 3D will be released in mainland China on May 12. May 12 is also the anniversary of the Nanjing Massacre and the National Disaster Day. In any case, this day is a sad day. As Chinese people, we cannot forget the pain left by history! Dare to let Zhen Zi 3D 》The box office was zero on May 12? Spread to the whole country, not to turn Chinese! "
The most direct source of the news spread is the network promoters. Online marketing is going farther and farther on the road to challenge the bottom line of tolerance and IQ. But are they the crux? Just like shark fin and ivory, no sale, no killing; For media content, all supply comes from demand. What is sick is not that many Internet promoters are endlessly concocting these messages and jokes that ignore the bottom line for the sake of eyeballing, but that such childish and funny news is still consumed, spread and needed by many people.
I can't believe that those who will boycott this Japanese film are not really concerned about the Nanjing Massacre on this day; Of course, the film was not released in China on that day. When someone is pointed out, he will become angry and say, "Why should we care about the day when we are patriotic?"! Lack of basic thinking ability, but immersed in blindness and distortion
It is very interesting to see a story of the investment community, and I would like to share it with you.
Some venture capitalists have a special preference for entrepreneurs with a certain personality: paranoia. Because they think such people are "determined, purposeful and decisive". There was an entrepreneur who happened to have this kind of personality, which can be said too well: arrogant. As long as there is a meeting, one person will speak like a religious leader on the platform in a storm, and I will be the main person. As long as I make up my mind, no one should try to resist. No matter partners, employees, or venture capitalists, all of you should shut up and "go away if you don't like it". This attitude made venture capitalists very happy, as if to see the German head of state again nodding approval. But as the entrepreneur's experience grew, he gradually changed his attitude towards life. He will no longer rule the conference room and control everything like a power concentrator. Instead, he will gather more power to explore himself. The deeper he knows himself, the milder his temper is, and the more incisive his perspective and depth are. His will to cause is strengthening day by day, and his aura is getting stronger and stronger - but he is no longer paranoid.
So? The venture capital was terrified and thought that "he is no longer passionate and decisive about entrepreneurship". As a result, investment stopped.
This is a funny ending. Maybe there are some story exaggerations, but there are many similar scenes. VCs think entrepreneurs are not strong enough

The biggest shortcoming of a person is not that he doesn't know what to do, but that he knows clearly, but he disdains, is inferior to, and is unwilling to do it.
The documentary Home, which was shot by Luc Besson in 2009, depicts the incomparably beautiful earth in the first half. From the ultimate question of "where does life come from", to the birth of bacteria in the ancient times, the transformation of the atmosphere by algae, to how plants further separated the oxygen in water, and how the atmospheric environment suitable for life was stabilized. In fact, when trees, the first sculpture of upward life, appeared on the earth, the framework of the planet was established.
For one hour, people were feeling the uncanny workmanship of nature. Whenever the time axis is dragged to ten thousand years of the cosmic level; When the space axis is magnified to the infinity of the planet level, and the perspective is stretched to ten thousand meters, people will feel their own insignificance, and will be pulled away from the life of tea, rice, oil and salt in reality - even for a second - suddenly thinking about the existence of the most original meaning of life.
But this is not a film extolling how harmonious and beautiful the earth is. On the contrary, there is no shocking bloody violence, and there is no disaster movie like death thriller, but the second half depicts a horror movie like scene with a series of numbers and facts:
20% of the world's population consumes 80% of the earth's resources; The global annual military expenditure is 12 times more than the aid funds of developing countries; 5000 people die every day from drinking
Recently, because the elder mentioned it, he reread an article: "Chinese people come from different planets". I have read this article in the past, but in the past two years, I have traveled overseas, and my social scope and experience have also been broadened. I am very interested in re reading the old article. The two paragraphs in it are very meaningful.
First, when the author talked about the current international problems with his old friends at home, his friends believed that the United States had planned the unrest in Syria for the purpose of competing for Syrian oil, just like the United States sent troops to Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. When the author "carefully told him that although the Arab revolution was in line with the democratic concept of the United States, the results of the Arab revolution were not in line with the economic interests of the United States", his friend still firmly believed that all the causes were economic interests, and the author also found that under the media propaganda, many people "believed that the bombing of the Yugoslav Chinese Embassy was intentional by the United States; The South China Sea collision is a provocative act of the US aircraft; The United States cannot tolerate China's strength, and is trying its best to encircle and suppress China; The South China Sea dispute is part of the US encirclement of China. The Philippines, Vietnam and other countries are used by the US to restrain China. "
Second: The author saw a movie on the plane: The Big Year》， It tells about three adults who took part in the bird watching contest. They didn't have any bonus and spent energy just for interest. The three people either quit their jobs or borrowed money or caused family disputes, but they all insisted on this hobby. When the author told his friends about this film, he got the following responses: "a group of fools", "the situation in the United States and China
