It was an era when the love of beauty and sightseeing were regarded as "bourgeois sentiment". At that time, all folk customs and festivals were regarded as "feudal superstitions" and strictly prohibited, so that for a long time, in my impression, Anshun's "local operas" were "absurd" and were all associated with "backwardness" and "ignorance".
It is this ideological prejudice that confuses our five senses and loses our eyes and ears that can discover and feel beauty. It's really "blind, ignorant of Mount Tai". Such an era seems to have passed.
But do we really know the land under our feet? The history of "people who grew up in the mountains don't know" should be over: mountains and rivers have bosom friends, and the land under your feet should be discovered with your heart. Perhaps its value lies in the word "discovery": it is not only the rediscovery of "Anshun regional customs", but also the rediscovery of Anshun, a land with profound and unique regional culture and historical culture, the rediscovery of the spiritual traditions of the villagers born here, and the rediscovery of the daily life of ordinary people.
For a distant Guizhou native or friend like me, what I feel after reading this book is the joy of discovery: not only the scenery here, but also my familiar old friends, not to mention the new scenery and new features of new friends, which simply surprises me! The discovery of all this is an affirmation of value and an improvement of life form: to borrow the poem of Holderlin, this is "living poetically on the earth". This is the re-establishment of the flesh-and-blood relationship between man and land, and the conscious pursuit of the harmonious poetic relationship between man and environment (natural environment and social humanistic environment), which is obviously of great significance in today's China.
Because we are facing the danger of "losing our roots": under the background of "globalization", when people, especially the younger generation, know nothing about the land where they were born and raised and the profound culture it contains, when people who stay on it feel alienated and unfamiliar in understanding, emotion and even psychology, they actually lose their spiritual home, thus losing the basic basis for their existence. Here, I would like to mention in particular an article in this book: The Root of the Soul of Dawa Shanzhai.
As a descendant of Dawa people, the author Yang Xiyong talked about a heavy lesson in his national history: "As a migrating nation, Dawa people, like Tunpu people, are" outsiders "living elsewhere. But over the past 600 years, Tunpu people have always stubbornly adhered to their original culture and dignity, so they are proud, proud and rooted.
On the other hand, Dawa people changed their customs along the opposite road. In the process of neither persisting nor persisting, they not only lost themselves, but also lost their own culture and roots. "But Dawa people still left a few ancient trees in front of the village, which are their' roots of soul and spirit'.
At the end of the article, it said: "As long as the roots are rooted in the soil, there is no home!" I think this sentence can almost be regarded as the inspiration of the title of Shen Xiu Qian Zhong: "Find the root of the soul and build your own spiritual home", which may be the starting point and destination of compiling this book. How to know the land under your feet is also the premise of revitalizing Guizhou (Anshun).
From the description of geography, culture, history and culture in central Guizhou in this book, I have two deepest feelings: the culture in central Guizhou (and even the whole Guizhou culture) has three characteristics: harmony between man and nature, peaceful coexistence of multi-ethnic cultures and coexistence and common prosperity of multi-cultures; But this is based on a low level of development. Generally speaking, people are more likely to notice the latter, thus generating a sense of urgency to change the backward status quo and move toward "modernization"; But at the same time, we should see and emphasize that the above three characteristics are the common pursuit of human beings who embody the "natural ecological balance" and "cultural ecological balance", and also the ideal that developed regions and countries urgently need to re-establish in the face of "modern civilization disease".
This shows that the so-called "primitive" and "modern", "backward" and "advanced" are not absolutely opposite, but also have the same side. As Guizhou and Anshun themselves, it is certainly impossible to become "living fossils" and "museums" safely. Naturally, they should seek the construction and development of new modern civilization, but this does not mean that they should completely give up their traditions.
How to deal with the relationship between "protection and development", "inheritance and innovation" and "ideal and reality" is still confusing in theory and practice and needs further exploration. However, a scientific and comprehensive understanding and evaluation of Guizhou (central Guizhou) culture, in order to overcome and change the long-standing inferiority and inaction, and enhance self-confidence and cohesion, is probably the top priority of Guizhou (Anshun) cultural spirit construction. In this sense, Shen Xiu Qian Zhong is not only a book of "seeking roots", but also a book of "setting spirits", and its significance cannot be underestimated.
Therefore, I understand that the organizers, planners, authors, editors and publishers of this book have devoted so much effort: they are determined to make this book a masterpiece worthy of raising their own land and their fellow villagers and history. So the whole book is exquisite and elegant, full of spirituality and heavy atmosphere, which is rare in the books I have read in recent years.
This in itself can be a great ambition, indicating that small places can also have atmospheric fields, and small people also have their own great realm. I also saw the cultural and literary potential of my "second hometown" Anshun.
As far as I know, Anshun was once famous for its "small play" in the whole province. Now it seems that Anshun's prose creation is still promising. More importantly, I saw an idealistic spirit from it.
This is the question I have been thinking about: What can the idealists in China today, or those who still don't want to give up their spiritual pursuit, do? I have a saying that "think big and do small things", that is, we should have high vision and trust.

one
Censer peak in the west and waterfall water in the south.

Like lightning flying, like Bai Hong looming.
At first, the river fell and was half scattered in the sky.
Look up at the situation, turn male, strong and good.

Shoot in the air and wash the blue wall left and right;
Flying beads scatter light clouds, and foam boils dome stones.
And I am happy in famous mountains, and I am happy in famous mountains;
Wash your face no matter what you wash.
And harmonious and accommodating, always willing to die.
