Life is like living in a hotel. Do you think that house belongs to you? "I always regret that this life is not mine." This body is not mine either. It would be great if I could stay in a hotel.

In my later years, I created a three-character sutra: "Zheng Qing He", that is, Confucius upholds righteousness, Lao Tzu upholds pure qi, and Sakyamuni upholds harmony. The Eastern Avenue is connected and promotes these three qi.

Irritability, anger and sadness are all hidden weapons that make people age. Life will eventually die one day, so let’s make the process of life more correct, clearer, and harmonious, so that this life can be more healthy. Be comfortable and stretch out. In fact, life is like a grand banquet, and everyone is an invited guest. When we leave, we should be like returning home from a banquet. We should go back feeling full and comfortable.

Writing can make people calm. If a person is calm and energetic, he will be able to penetrate it from beginning to end; if it has collapsed in the middle and the writing becomes more and more messy, it can be seen that the life of the writer is not long; the writing is very sparse at the beginning, and then runs out of paper , it means there is no planning; if the words are written as big as an abacus, like artistic calligraphy, the flavor will be lost... It can be said that a word is a life.

Pain is the sharpest of all feelings, but if life is lost, pain is also lost. So when the pain was the worst, I was happy. Why was I happy? Because I am alive!

The biggest pain for the elderly is to recall yesterday and always feel that the present is not as good as the past. I always feel that all elderly people should not regard the word "old age" as their own burden. They should think more about tomorrow and what I plan to do tomorrow. This is endlessly interesting.

The most terrifying things should be treated with the most humorous attitude, and with laughter. You can smile in the face of sorrow, and there will be no mountain of fire that you cannot overcome. We must uproot the unhappiness in our hearts little by little, and let green grass, flowers, and living water stay in our hearts forever.

If you are not guilty, your mental health is called righteousness. This is spiritual fullness. Righteousness is the first element of Confucius' self-cultivation, and the second element is self-cultivation and physical exercise. Physical and mental health add up to two words: self-love.

Life lies in freedom, and politics requires morality.

In a commodity society, there is no crime in loving money. A commodity society requires money, and traditional culture requires face, but dignity should never be given up for profit.

No matter how long the shadows of trees at dusk are, they cannot be separated from the tree trunks; no matter where you are in the journey of life, you cannot leave behind your love for the motherland.

"Even though you are young, you can be a teacher." Old people should be able to see what they need to learn from young people. Confucius learned from the group, Qu Yuan learned from the future. A country, a nation, a family, if the son is not as good as me and the grandson is not as good as the son, the family will be finished. Whether you are happy or not depends on the situation behind you, you should come from behind. If you want to be proud, young people deserve to be proud. They have a drive, don't care about anything, and have the courage to step on difficulties under their feet. It is very sad not to know how to be humble, and those who rely on their old age and betray them are "shameless"! Respecting the virtuous is absolute, while respecting the elderly is relative. We should respect those elderly people who have made achievements and made brilliant careers but still retain their modest qualities

Respecting tradition does not mean going backwards

From 2008 Since the beginning of the year, Tomb Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, etc. have been designated as national statutory holidays. Festivals and holidays are integrated, and traditional culture has a carrier.

Traditional culture is our root and soul. The faster society develops, the less we can abandon tradition. Traditional festivals are designated as statutory holidays by the country, which strengthens our nation’s traditional festival culture. "The Analects of Confucius" says, "Be cautious about the end and pursue the future, and the people's virtues will be strong." Only a nation that is grateful and does not forget its roots can have a prosperous and strong future.

There is a lot of knowledge involved in popularizing traditional culture, and you can also try a variety of channels. Yi Zhongtian and others popularized history and people were willing to listen, which played a role in popularizing knowledge. However, our respect for history and tradition does not mean that we are going backwards. Popularization must be done under correct guidance and cannot be too casual.

Nowadays, some parents and schools ask their children to recite the Four Books and Five Classics, but this is unnecessary. You can let your children selectively memorize some passages, such as "A benevolent man in The Analects of Confucius, if he wishes to establish himself, he can establish others; if he wishes to achieve self-reliance, he can help others", "Mencius" "Everyone has a heart of compassion", "The Book of Changes" says, "Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman strives to constantly strive for self-improvement." These classic discussions can become the motto of modern people.

Today’s teenagers have grown up in online culture and lack understanding of our traditional culture, which requires some guidance for them. However, I do not agree with unconditional and unrestricted retro. Regarding the "Chinese Studies craze", I think we need to calm down a little bit. It's not just something that gets hot.

There must be sincere land in your heart

“I am a small grain of sand. Without the sand, there will be no beach; and the beach composed of sand is enough to embrace the ocean. ! "The sand is subtle, but Mr. Huaisha." He is famous for his specialization in Chu Ci, founded Baoxue, and Oriental Meishengxue. He also extensively studied hundreds of classics and history, epigraphy, calligraphy and painting, and even medicine, Buddhism, red studies, music, and drama. On March 23, 2008, the UNESCO Folk Art International Organization awarded him the Outstanding Cultural Contribution Award.

It is better to seek oneself than to seek others; it is better to seek oneself than to seek education.

In 1910, Wen Huaisha was born in a civilian family in Beijing. His father was an officer of the Kuomintang, and his mother earned a meager salary by working in other people's homes.

My family was not well-off when I was a child. He said: "I suffered from insomnia when I was 9 years old. I didn't play with other children at a young age. My mother was an old patient and took medicine every day. I recalled Childhood is like entering a very gloomy dream."

"It is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself, and to ask for yourself is worse than studying." This old saying that the young Wen Huaisha believed in drove away the cold dreams and took him away. To pursue sincerity. When he was very young, he became fascinated by some difficult books that even adults rarely read. When he was eleven or twelve years old, he could already recite "Li Sao" in a decent manner. The inexplicable love in childhood quietly led him to embark on the academic path.

From the day he stepped into society, Wen Huaisha positioned himself as a literary young man. One day, when he was looking for survival opportunities in Shanghai, he accidentally heard that Mr. Zhang Taiyan, a master of Chinese studies, had opened a Chinese studies seminar in Suzhou. On the same day, he took a train from Shanghai to Suzhou and studied under Mr. Zhang Taiyan, who was a fellow student with Lu Xun.

Although he has not received formal school education, Wen Huaisha is precocious and has taught at the National Women's Teachers College and Shanghai Drama Academy since he was 18 years old. After liberation, he taught at many domestic universities such as Peking University, Tsinghua University, Beijing Normal University, and the Central Academy of Fine Arts.

In 1953, Wen Huaisha ushered in his academic milestone. He, Guo Moruo and others were ordered to form the "Qu Yuan Research Group" to compile Qu Yuan's works into a collection and publish them in vernacular. Wen Huaisha, 43 years old at the time, wrote "The Collection of Qu Yuan" in just over a month, which can be easily understood by people with junior high school education. Subsequently, "The Modern Interpretation of Nine Songs", "The Modern Interpretation of Nine Chapters", "The Modern Interpretation of Li Sao", and "The Modern Interpretation of Zhaohun" were published one after another, which had a great influence in the academic world and established Wen Huaisha's role in the field of Chu Ci research. authoritative position. The reputation of "the first person to study Chu Ci in New China" has been spread since then.

He believes that Chinese culture has two systems, one is called "wind" and the other is "sao". "Wind" is the essence of the Chinese nation, represented by Confucius. "Sao" is the personality of the Chinese nation, represented by Qu Yuan. "Wind" teaches people to learn from the group and how to survive; the spirit of "Sao" teaches people to learn from the future, teaches people to take the reasons for survival seriously and teaches people not to live in an ignoble existence.

Even if there is only one sunrise, I still want to think about tomorrow

Wen Huaisha has an upright temperament and an ill-fated fate. He likes Petofi's famous saying: "Life is precious, love is even more valuable. If it's for freedom, you can throw away both." He said: "I would like to add two more sentences. If it's for responsibility, you don't want freedom! "

In 1938, 28-year-old Wen Huaisha composed a song "Listening to the Rain" in Chongqing and sent it to Mr. Liu Yazi, the founder of Nanshe. The poem goes: "The drop of a drop changes the sound of the silk, while the river tower listens to the rain.

A lamp with a small red bean, this night is the most lovesick. Liu Yazi praised him greatly after reading it: "The poem came from Wang Mojie and he won it", and jokingly said that "the king's poems are like beauty, and he has fallen in love before marrying".

In the summer of 1944, Wen Huaisha was in Chongqing He was a teacher. He joined many progressives in calling for the abolition of the party ban and the establishment of a democratic coalition government, and signed the "Declaration on the Current Situation" on the front page of the "Xinhua Daily". Therefore, he was fired from the school and became unemployed. After losing his job, he moved in. In a small house temporarily rented by his friend Jiao Juyin, the two shared a small wooden bed and shared three meals a day, which was only enough for one person to satisfy their hunger. It was also during that period that Wen Huaisha, who was full of patriotic enthusiasm, published a poem in Xinhua Daily. : “The stars and the moon are dim in the ruined mountains, and the remaining water leaks even longer. There are many lights on the other side, and the brilliance does not cross the river. " caused quite a shock, and many teachers and friends were worried about his safety.

In 1958, Chairman Mao went to inspect the Ming Tombs Reservoir. At that time, someone brought the talented Wen Huaisha to the meeting podium. . Wen Huaisha still had a childlike heart and felt that Chairman Mao was tall and friendly, so he unconsciously came to him and straightened his chest to compare with Chairman Mao, "But no matter how hard I stood up, I was still shorter than the Chairman." "No one cared about Wen Huaisha's childish behavior at the time. "But later I wrote the sentence 'I want to compete with God' next to the photo I took with Chairman Mao, leaving myself 'evidence of guilt' and incurring serious consequences. Misfortune..."

During the "Cultural Revolution", Wen Huaisha was arrested and imprisoned twice for "viciously attacking the flag bearer" and lost his freedom for ten years. Wen Huaisha, who was in prison, remained upright and outspoken. One day, while studying the "Supreme Instructions" published in the newspaper, he discovered that the word "awake" in the last sentence of "Isn't it sobering" was wrong. It should be "province". He said to the literate and uneducated prisoners, those who understood and those who did not understand: Chairman Mao is a man, not a god. Since he is a man, it is impossible not to make mistakes. It means deep sleep. How can you wake up? So the word "deep awakening" is a typo, it should be "deep reflection".

In prison, Wen Huaisha suffered from liver disease and was diagnosed by the prison hospital. It was liver cancer. “At that time, I had a big belly and ascites, so I had to undergo a liver puncture. I was diagnosed with liver cancer and the doctor said I didn’t have long to live. So some people gloated and said, Wen Huaisha, don't be too crazy, you won't live long. Do you know that you have advanced liver cancer? After hearing these words, I felt extremely painful at first, and then I suddenly laughed. People thought I was crazy, but in fact I understood the pain of life. "Wen Huaisha recalled, "I am afraid of death, and I am also afraid of pain. Once a person loses his life, the pain is also lost. So when the pain was the worst, I was happy. Why was I happy? I'm alive! ”
