East of Wuxi, the Stone Forest Jingshe House, is closed at night. The moon is quiet above, and the monk holds half a million yuan. The autumn mountain smells apes whistling every day, and the cold spring of falling wood is inexhaustible. Only the two peaks are the highest, and this heart period is the same as that of the old friend.
Translation of the work
The Stone Forest Jingshe is located in the east of Wuxi River, and at night, it knocks at Zen Pass to pay homage to the eminent monks. The moon is above, and everything is quiet, and the monk is half-satisfied. All day long, the ape sounds sad in the autumn mountain, and the fallen leaves and cold springs are noisy. But it's the twin peaks to the top of the mountain, and I'm connected with my old friend.
Appreciation of works
The writer of this poem first visits a monastery at night to pay homage to a monk. This is the beginning of entering the temple, and it is also the beginning of entering the Zen gate. There is another scene in the temple: under the bright moon, everything is silent, as if the quiet and intelligent power symbolized by the bright moon calmed everything. The monk really has a different look: if you have half a ribbon in your hand, you will participate in the birth and death, and everything will be empty. The bright moon can calm everything, and half a moon can be empty. This is the power of Buddhism and Zen wisdom. "'Life and death destroy oneself' means eternal death, and' silence for happiness' means endless happiness." ("Nirvana Jing Shu", Volume 21) Now that you have gained the wisdom of meditation, you can't make it move all day long. No matter how thrilling the environment is, the author, like a monk, will be detached from the heart and reach the Zen realm of breaking away from the dust.
