Ailian said.
Like lotus, like her faint fragrance, like her faint pink, like her slim figure, like her clear ripple without demon, like her gentle like water. ...
In the eyes, there is only pity. Just like the girl with lilacs in the rain lane, in her dream, she didn't wave or walk away. In addition to her figure or her figure, in addition to her handsome or her handsome. Peony? Roses? Lily? Chrysanthemum? Facing these harem beauties, I feel that I am a picky gourmet and an artist who pursues perfection.
They lacked something and didn't give me a completely happy feeling. Maybe that's why I like lotus more!
Love is blind. Lotus, let me feel that it is the king of flowers, no one can compare. My friend said I liked it so much that I ignored the beauty of other flowers. Maybe! In late spring, in March, white flowers compete for beauty, and peony is charming and moving, which makes people only shocked; In the hot summer, violets and magnolias give off a faint fragrance, which dispels the meaning of summer and makes people relaxed and happy; Autumn is crisp, chrysanthemum is proud of its branches, and its integrity is proud and clean. Rumbling in the cold winter, Mei struggled for beauty alone, not afraid of the cold, spitting out fragrance and countless words of praise. However, I still stubbornly believe that lotus is perfect.
My love for lotus makes me an unfair judge of flowers. In life, are we still unfair judges of things?
Late at night, I lay quietly in bed, troubled by this question. The box of memory was secretly opened, and the past reappeared in front of us like running water.
I became his guardian because of my worship of the individual. If others have a slight objection, they will add their fists. My friends stood in awe of it and kept silent, which made my heart slightly happy. Because you are close friends, you stand on the side of friends regardless of right or wrong, indiscriminately; Because of a slight prejudice against individuals, as long as suspicious things appear, the focus will be on him; Because of my own preferences, I blindly obey, and I don't know what I am doing.
Suddenly found that I used to be so indecisive. I became a rootless orchid, a chasing duckweed, a dancing Hà Thu, a dandelion scattered by the wind, and a judge of life injustice.
The world is very big. If we want to know everything clearly, we should put aside my personal feelings and look at the essence through phenomena, so that our lives can be more independent and feel our existence. Like a huge pine tree, rooted between cliffs, it will not change its position with mountains and rivers and hurricanes; Just like a wild lily blooming alone in the valley, it still blooms so brightly and happily whether anyone passes by or not.

There are several acres of clear ponds in front of the building. I remember that when I first moved here more than 30 years ago, there seemed to be lotus flowers in the pond, and there were still some broken shadows of green leaves and safflower in my memory. Later, things changed, and as the years passed, the pond became "a half-acre square pond with clouds and shadows all over the sky", and the lotus was never seen again.
I have a lot of old ideas in my head. Every time I look at an empty pond, I always feel as if something is missing. This is not in line with my aesthetic concept. There should be something green in the pond, even reeds are better than nothing. The best and most ideal is of course the lotus. There are too many descriptions of lotus flowers in China's old poems. Zhou Dunyi's On Ailian is probably unique. His famous phrase "fragrance is far and clear" is widely known. It can almost be said that there is no one in China who doesn't love lotus flowers. But the pond in front of our building is the only pond lacking lotus flowers. Every time I see or think about it, I always feel like a heart disease.
Someone came from Hubei and brought some lotus seeds from Honghu Lake. The shell is black and hard. It is said that if buried in mud, it can be preserved for thousands of years. Therefore, I cracked a crack in the lotus seed with a hammer, so that the lotus bud can break out of its shell and not be buried in the mud forever. These are subjective wishes, and whether the lotus buds can grow is a big unknown. Anyway, I finally tried my best to put five or six broken lotus seeds into the pond. The following is resignation.
In this way, I have one more job every day: go to the pond several times more. I always hope that one day, suddenly, "Xiao He reveals sharp corners" and green lotus leaves grow out of the water. However, contrary to expectations, in the first year of throwing, nothing appeared on the water until the autumn leaves fell. After a lonely winter day, the next year, the pool was full of springs, green willows and weeping willows, and it was another beautiful scene. However, the water I expected still didn't show any lotus leaves. At this time, I was completely disheartened, thinking that those hard-shell lotus seeds brought by Hubei might not have the hope of planting lotus seeds for unexplained reasons. My eyes can't suck lotus leaves out of the mud.
However, in the third year, a miracle suddenly happened. One day, I suddenly found some round green leaves growing where I threw lotus seeds. Although the color is extremely pleasing, they are thin and pitifully lying on the water, just like the leaves of water hyacinth. Only five or six leaves grew at first. I always think it's a little too little, and I always hope to grow more pieces. So, I look forward to the stars and the moon, and go to the pond to watch it every day. There are also farmers outside the school to catch aquatic plants. I always ask them to be kind and not to break the leaves. But after the long summer, the sad autumn came to the world again, and there were only five or six lonely leaves floating in the pond. For me, this is another year that is slightly hopeful but still depressing.
The real miracle appeared in the fourth year. After the severe winter, the pond overflowed with springs. When the lotus grows leaves, a large green leaf suddenly grows in the place where five or six leaves floated last year. Under the severe winter ice, it seems that the lotus has not stopped moving, because leaves have also grown in the center of the pond far from the original base of five or six leaves. The speed and range of blade expansion are amazing. Within a few days, a large part of the pond has been covered with green leaves. Moreover, the leaves that used to lie flat on the water like water lilies gathered strength from somewhere, and some of them actually jumped out of the water and grew into slender lotus leaves. It turned out that I had been suspicious for a long time, worried that the water lily was growing in the pool, not the real lotus. In this way, the doubts in my heart were swept away; What grows in the pond is really the descendant of Honghu lotus. I am ecstatic, and these years have finally paid off.
Everything in the world is born, and animals, plants and other creatures, including people, are always endowed with an extremely amazing survival force and an extremely amazing expansion and dissemination force, which is too great to resist. As long as you take the time to observe it, you will definitely admit it. What is in front of me now is the lotus in the pond in front of my house. As some brave blades jumped out of the water, many blades followed. Overnight, dozens of branches appeared, and they spread rapidly. In less than ten days, lotus leaves have covered half the pond. From where I planted my seeds, I spread to the east, west, north and south. I don't know how the lotus moves in the mud in deep water. Anyway, judging from the lotus leaves above the water, it takes at least half a foot to form this situation.
Planting lotus leaves is definitely not enough. Lotus flowers bloom one after another. According to experts who know lotus flowers, the lotus flowers in the pond in front of my house are different from those in other ponds in Yanyuan. The color of lotus in other places is light red; My lotus here is not only red, but also has many petals. Each flower can produce sixteen compound petals, which certainly looks different. These dazzling red lotus flowers, hanging high above the lotus leaves, pose in the wind as if they were dazzling everything. When I was young, I read an old poem: "After all, in mid-June, the scenery of the West Lake was different from that at four o'clock. The next day, the lotus leaf is infinitely blue, and the lotus color is different. " I like the beauty of his poems and deeply regret that I can't go to Hangzhou West Lake to enjoy them in person. Now the pond in front of my door is the scenery of the West Lake. It was I who moved the West Lake from Hangzhou to Yanyuan. Isn't it great and satisfying? Mr Zhou Yiliang moved to Longrun Garden only a few years ago and was named "Jihe". I find it interesting and grateful. Can I pass the lotus?
The year before and last year, when the lotus flowers in the summer moon pool were in full bloom, I wandered around the pond at least several times a day, sitting on a stone and quietly sucking the fragrance of lotus flowers and lotus leaves. "The quieter the forest, the quieter Tonamiyama. "I really feel very quiet around. I sat there silently, and what I saw on the water was the green manure and red manure of the lotus. The reflection is reflected in the water. When the wind blows, a lotus petal falls into the water. It falls from the top, but the reflection in the water falls upward from the bottom and finally touches the water surface. The two become one and float there like a boat. I once read two poems in a poem: "The moon falls on the flowers on the pond, and the birds on the sand fly with the sound." The author deeply regrets that the second sentence doesn't work. No wonder, how many people can understand the realm of "a pool of flowers and shadows"?
In the evening, my family often sits on the stones by the pond to enjoy the cool. One night, the moon in the sky was bright and bright, casting a silver light on the lotus. I suddenly heard a plop. Mao Mao, my little white Persian cat, jumped into the water. She probably thought there was a white jade plate in the water and wanted to jump on it and catch it. As soon as she entered the water, she probably felt something was wrong. She quickly returned to the shore and broke the reflection of the moon. It took her a long time to regain her original shape.
This summer, the weather is very sultry, but the lotus flowers are in full bloom. Green covers the sky, red flowers reflect the sun, and a pond that is not too small is filled, and even the water surface can hardly be seen. A neighbor who loves lotus flowers counts the number of lotus flowers with interest every day. Tell me today that there are four or five hundred flowers; Tell me tomorrow that there are six or seven hundred flowers. However, although I know he is meticulous, I don't believe he can really count the exact number of flowers. There are many corners under the lotus leaf and between the stones. I don't know how many are hidden, so it is difficult to see them on the shore.
In the past few days, the weather has suddenly turned cold. Although the lotus leaf in the pond is still green, it seems that the day of becoming a residual lotus will not be too far away. In a month or two, when the water freezes, even the remaining lotus flowers will disappear without a trace. At that time, the lotus may hibernate under the ice and dream of spring. Their dreams will surely come true. "Winter has arrived, can spring be far behind?"
I wish my "Jihe" all the best.
Lin Qingxuan, the lotus of cleanliness.
Occasionally walking on the sidewalk, I suddenly saw a sunset hanging at the end of the street far away. At this time, I will think that such a beautiful sunset really indicates that the day is coming to an end.
Occasionally, on a certain road, I saw kapok dead branches, standing alone in dark brown, in a flute-like posture. At this time, I will think, kapok has fallen behind again. How many times can I see beautiful kapok in my life?
Occasionally, in a roadside cafe, I saw a green light, and an old woman dressed in plain clothes hurried across the road with her little granddaughter in her arms. At this moment, I will think that the old woman was once a beautiful girl like a flower, and that girl will one day become an old woman holding her granddaughter.
Occasionally, standing on the footbridge on the road, overlooking the endless flow of traffic in all directions under the footbridge, I feel that Mercedes-Benz is like a still picture. At this moment, I will think, where is the starting point? Where will it end?
Occasionally, when I go home, I have to wash my hands when I turn on the tap. I saw clear water gushing out and flowing rapidly, which suddenly made me stand there with a deep trembling. At this moment, I feel that it seems that what is in the tap is not water, but time, mood or an idea.
Occasionally, I found a forgotten iris on a country road. It looks like a phoenix flower, but it is more elegant than a phoenix flower. When I leaned over to smell the flowers, a piece of iris suddenly fell, which surprised me. At this time, I will think, is this flower a phantom of the butterfly, or is the butterfly the predecessor of the flower?
Occasionally, in the silent night, I hear my neighbor's cats chasing lust on the roof and screaming at each other in pain, which is creepy. At this moment, I would think that the lust of animals is so rough, but if we look at human beings back and forth from a relatively subtle high point, isn't man such a rough animal?
Occasionally, in a small pond in the mountains, I saw a red sleeping chain, which was pulled out from the shallow ground of the swamp and opened a beautiful note, as if ignoring the pollution outside. At this time, I will think: ah! Ah! What kind of experience do we need to be like this pure lotus?
once in a while ...
Occasionally, we live like other people, but if we calm our hearts like a lake without waves, we can see this boundless and complicated world with a clear and clear mind and find wisdom in all the beauty, corruption, clarity and filth. If we are wise people, all the troubles will bring us consciousness, and all the little things will make us feel its significance and value.
It is not difficult to seek wisdom in the world. The most important thing is to make our own soft hearts so soft that we can see a petal falling in the flower, which makes us tremble because we know its meaning.
Only when it is soft can we be sensitive; Only when it is soft can we be tolerant; Only when we are soft can we be exquisite; Only by its softness can we surpass ourselves and even tolerate our wounds when we are injured.
Soft hearts are the seeds of great compassion and bodhicitta. A soft heart is the source of our life in the secular world, and we can always feel the clarity of ourselves.
The most beautiful petals are soft, the greenest grassland is soft, the vastest sea is soft, the boundless sky is soft, and the clouds flying freely in the sky are the softest!
The softness of our mind can be more beautiful than petals, greener than imitation, wider than the ocean, more boundless than the sky and more comfortable than clouds. Softness is the most powerful and constant.
Let's open a soft and clean lotus of wisdom in the humble and muddy world.
