"When will you wake up from a dusty dream?"

sometimes, it is really a kind of karma. Just when I meditated in yoga, meditated and meditated, gathered my consciousness and saw the lotus, I immediately met this book.

Accompany Mr. Wang's friends and go to the local online celebrity restaurant for dinner. He wants to drink, Xiaomi is responsible for paying the bill and driving. Before waiting for the dishes to be served, Xiaomi found a bookstore next to it. She has always had a soft spot for bookstores, so she must go in and have a look.

it doesn't matter at first sight, but I find there is a hole in the sky. This bookstore hidden in online celebrity food store is actually an ancient bookstore. There are many old books that are yellow, and there are also many books that seem to be relatively unpopular in modern bookstores.

at the sight of the author's name, it is by no means unpopular. A Dream of Red Mansions is a 311-year-old bestseller, and there are more and more works by everyone, especially classical books.

Xiaomi couldn't put it down. Instead of skimming, she slowly brushed it with her fingertips. It seemed like opening a new book. She first scanned the catalogue and read the preface, and then began to read the text. She knew the weight of several sets of books and had the urge to move home.

I still held back. Take your time. Now that we've met, there's still plenty of time. Fortunately, we met at home instead of meeting an old friend in another country.

there is a thick layer of dust on your fingers. It seems that there are more people taking pictures here, fewer people turning over books and fewer people buying books. Several times, I saw a beautiful young lady, leaning against the antique bookshelf to take pictures, and then went out to retouch the picture.

Xiaomi doesn't take pictures, and there are signs on the bookshelf. Please don't take pictures of books. Of course, you are welcome to buy books. But almost all the books are covered with dust. I don't know if the bookstore did it on purpose or if it lacked care. In short, it gives people a feeling that the courtyard is deep and deep.

as I walked past, I suddenly saw this little pink book and immediately took it down. The transparent wrapping paper was covered with dust. Shake it and tear it without hesitation.

Because Xiaomi immediately decided to buy it, just like when he was particularly thirsty, he ran to the supermarket, opened the refrigerator and took out a bottle of mineral water. Without saying anything, he opened it first and then paid at the front desk.

when you open the book, it is delicious. This book is the Five Lectures on Lotus by Mr. Ye Jiaying.

She was born in the Lotus Moon, and her nickname is Lotus. In her book, she also takes Lotus as the main line, telling five speeches about her attachment to Lotus, and also telling her life-long experience of being a companion with China's classical poems and her incredible relationship with Buddhism.

"Lotus should not die if it has a heart", "Thousands of spring flowers are still in full swing" ...... "It's hard to feel the life experience when it's gone" ... In every word, all of them are ideal feelings, all of them are personal destiny, and they are even more worried about their home country. The descendants of Nalan family, who have read a lot of poetry books in private schools since childhood, are all masterpieces, and education and education are even more fragrant.

He is over eighty years old, but still laments that "a soft silkworm can't stretch its silk in vain, but one day it can be woven into a brocade." It is entirely a warm expectation for the younger generation, and it is also a persistence in the ideal of poetry. She also wants to give more lectures, write more poems and make more contributions to the inheritance of Chinese culture.

She is as demanding of herself as she is of her own poetry. Xiaomi recently read Sanmao's words, and also read between her lines to see the requirements for self and literature. Xiaomi is really self-mutilation, which is another story.

Xiaomi first knew Mr. Ye, and she attended a poetry meeting in her little daughter's kindergarten.

The school held a grand story king competition with the theme of "Paying tribute to Mr. Ye Jiaying". Listening to the children and parents, the sharing of the story competition has also initially felt the spirit of Mr. Ye's life and poetry.

Xiaomi bought her poetry collection that day. But when I opened my book, it was almost all academic and explanatory. I couldn't read it like a novel, so I put it on the shelf and prepared to read it another day.

Five Lectures on Lotus, a thin book, was read in two nights. Several poems appeared repeatedly in the speech, which further enhanced her understanding of Mr. Ye, Lotus, Buddha and poetry, and those extraordinary reasons. Like meeting a cultural tutor, she seemed to be listening to Mr. Ye sing poems.

Xiaomi deeply admires that when Mr. Ye was forced to make a living and support his family, he had to explain poems in English in Vancouver, Canada, including Mao's poems, her sense of powerlessness and frustration.

This is a poet who deeply loves his motherland and a wanderer who has been away from home for many years. Therefore, she will return to China again and again at her own expense, give lectures, exchange visits and research, and finally settle down in China, and donate her life-long income, especially what she has learned all her life.

Think more and hear more. Such a set of books is really very good. Xiaomi is thinking. At least let her meet Mr. Ye.

"Who sent xi he to send a touch of red at dusk?" Xiaomi has met such a scene, but unfortunately there is no ink in his chest, and he can't think of such a poem. Now, after reading Mr. Ye's poems, I clearly want to appreciate a lotus flower or a pool of lotus flowers.

Xiaomi was also born in the lotus month. There are also many ideals in my heart. I once wanted to be a teacher, choose one thing, and raise one person all my life. Of course, the last "one" is to hope for a garden of peaches and plums.

but fate played tricks on people, and she failed to persist. Now it is like duckweed, drifting with the tide and being displaced. She failed to become a graceful lotus in the mud. Not to mention, spinning cocoons and breaking cocoons into butterflies.

Reading and writing have become the only way for her to spin silk for the world. Don't say "Tiansun", even passers-by are rare. She knows that the requirements for herself are far lower than those of these people, and the written words really can't stand scrutiny.

In Mr. Ye Jiaying's writing, she saw the real elegance of everyone. Almost every word, every word, is reasonable and well-founded, and every word is well-intentioned and every sentence expresses its will.

Xiaomi knows that she is too shallow. If there is a cause, she hopes to give herself a font size, which is shallow.

it's not only shallow, but also shallow. She has always studied, just like Sanmao, reading willfully and unsystematically, but skimming the water, the geese are silent.

If the karma with lotus is just beginning, it is far from being completed. She doesn't believe in Buddhism, and she can't believe in Buddhism. However, the phrase "Flowers bloom in lotus, flowers fall into lotus" in the Lotus Sutra is also like an awakening.

"There is no reason to get lost in the sea of misery, and the East has passed through this dust. Why do you want tens of billions of lotus flowers, and one by one lotus flowers will see the Buddha's body. " Li Shangyin's "Farewell to the Master" has repeatedly appeared in Mr. Ye's speech, which proves her ill-fated but fragrant life. "The Tathagata was originally an illusion, so how can it be lived?"

Xiaomi wrote on the side, "It is the confusion now!" I want to be like her, like Fan Jinshi, like Sanmao, and like many people with simple ideals, I can really "blossom lotus" and "blossom lotus".
