Mu Tao belongs to the north. On the edge of the gray city wall was a corner tower, dark gold depicting dark blue, and at dusk there was a flock of bats whirling, and at the spine were several small beasts. The sky seemed deep and empty. Such an atmosphere is closest to him - low, steady, warm, seemingly careless, but the light is meticulous, and blindly follows the heart, thousands of thoughts through how many dynasties, how many generations, how many years, how many things. Such a spiritual demeanor is either made by the outer meridians of the Yandi of the frontier and the Han capital of Qincheng, or the inner is due to the cultivation of the village and the immersion of the Taoist theory. Therefore, the sun and the moon are close to the universe and swim outside the dirt; the second is to forget things, forget the sky, and communicate with the spirit of heaven and earth alone; and the third is to say the beauty of the original heaven and earth, reaching the principle of all things, and being free between heaven and earth. Therefore, for the text, the waves are not shocked, but they exert themselves in the depths. Chang'an freehand, carved beams and paintings at the bottom of the heart, words and sentences reveal the dull sound of the thousand-year-old morning bell and dusk drum.

In a word.

Mu Tao's writing, longitude and latitude, inclusive. The titles he sees, such as "Righteous Faith", "Letter Change", "From the Beginning", "The Atmosphere in the Body", "The Ditch and Gully of the History of Letters", "The Tree and the Tablet", "The Thief in the Heart", "Enlightenment", "The Attitude of Going to Desire", etc., present the main tone of life, or they are also the important information to unlock his access control and decipher his code, representing his impression and attitude towards people's hearts and minds. Among them, history, poetry, vulgar records, Chinese characters, traditions, culture, wisdom, numbers, and world conditions...... The Spring and Autumn Period, the calendar and agriculture, moral consciousness, emperors and generals, old bricks and new walls, literary calligraphy and painting, food and women, are all in the eyes of the law. And based on the various states of the world, talk about the scriptures, seek solutions at the bottom of the pen, and seek truth in the heart. Solvers, everything goes back to the source, and the last is the source. Those who seek truth speak in the essence, integrate and connect, grasp the law, speak reasonably, and deal with it calmly.

For example, he said, "One is zero in front of you." But zero is not nothing, it is an infinite number, it is an unknown number, and it contains much more. One is the fundamental number. One is followed by an infinite number of numbers. Mr. 2, regeneration 3, all things are accumulated, as long as we have enough patience, we can accumulate all the way endlessly...... One is vast, boundless, and readily available. One is also changing all the time, with twists and turns, and a river of spring water flows eastward. The one that is hard to describe is everything, not just in case. For another example, he said: "Wang Yangming said that it is easy to break the mountain and the thief is difficult to break the heart." That's to the point. Although the human heart is long in flesh, this piece of meat is really vast and subtle, and it is extremely complex. It is higher than the sky, thicker than the earth, deeper than the sea, hotter than the heat, more expensive than gold, colder than ice, harder than iron, thinner than paper. From one point of view, from the point of view of ten thousand, from the heart of the vision, all from the foundation, is to seek the essence of all things in the world. In fact, it is the most difficult paradox in the world. It shows the loftiness of his heart, the spirituality of quality, and the far-reaching of his thinking. And the style of language is unpredictable, referring to the east and west, and the wisdom of the heart, all changes and traces, in the sentences.

Again, yes.

The so-called yes is to seek truth from facts. It is lawful, objective, accessible, and thorough. Mu Tao's text, seeking the law and the truth in Vientiane. For example, when it comes to "history," he says, "Everything in the world is done by man." People in a period of time must take responsibility for their actions in this period, and they can't do it if they don't want to, and they can't shirk it, which is called history. For example, what is the meaning of "wind", he said: "The expression form of qi is called wind, and the wind is qi, and the spirit is vigorous...... Qi does not run smoothly in the body, which is called qi stagnation in Chinese medicine. "Qi is in the body, i.e., it is not rampant. "It's a lot harder to straighten the air than to straighten the crooked iron rod. For example, what is meant by "food and clothing", he said: "Full of warmth and lust, hunger and cold make a thief's heart." "Another word for lust is to enjoy life. Therefore, it is not okay to be too full or hungry. For example, what is meant by "painting the heart", he said, "A painting is also a word, a pictographic word, a complex word." A person with a calm mind can also draw complex pictures. ”

After the story he narrates, there is always a philosophical meaning and an idea of the world, and there must be a metaphysical being to take care of it. This seems to be a natural implication in his writings. The essays he laid out and depicted were full of new theories, looking like a forest, with mountains and mountains, dense and impermeable, with intricate branches and leaves stretching high and low. But the leaves connect the branches, the branches connect the branches, the branches connect the branches, and many lines form a trend, following a certain logical order, ending at the core of the roots. It's the core that's really shocking. It is **, and it is also frank, and it does not hide any secrets. It's about what he thinks the world is like, and it's about his idea of the state of life. This is where all the bits and pieces he shows come from. His understanding of the world is clear, and the branches and leaves drawn from the core of this vein are also complex, diverse and orderly.

Three words.

His literature is linked to mathematics, philosophy, and scripture and history, which reminds me of Mr. Zhang Shenfu's "Thoughts" in the 20s of the 20th century. "Thoughts" says: "It is mysterious not to be expressed." Representation is science. Between what can be expressed and what is not expressed, is art. Cleaning up its manifestations is philosophies. He said: "Science is learning, and philosophy is learning." He also said, "Science is an instrument, and there is no good or evil in it." If a knife is used to injure the hand, the knife is not responsible. Mu Tao's writings also seek to pierce the window paper of the world's ignorance, and only seek a transparency, which is often amazing.

For example, when it comes to the subset of Bible History, he said: "In the past, readers mainly read Bible History, which was a textbook, and the subset was a supplementary textbook and an extracurricular reading material. There is also a difference between classics and history, classics are basic lectures, and history is a professional course, first learn personnel, and then practice world affairs...... The scriptures are the way of life, and things change, but the basic things of people will not change...... Reading the scriptures is to defend the way and find the great truth of heaven, earth and man. Reading history is to find virtue, what is virtue? 'Those who are virtuous are also virtuous', and they are virtuous when they have merit. ”

For another example, he said: "No, no According to Mr. Nan Huaijin's understanding, Yi's hexagram has six lines, the first and second lines are metaphorical to the earth, the third and fourth lines are metaphorical to people, and the fifth and upper lines are metaphorical to the sky. It's not like that, it's just that it's not very good at being a person, and it doesn't follow people's rules when doing things. "There are two ways of saying that there are five people and six people. One is that there are five internal organs empty. Five organs, heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys. Six intestines, gall bladder, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, bladder, three cokes. The five internal organs are the core memory of human beings, each performing its own duties and responsibilities. The meaning of five people and six is that the memory is intact, but it is not working properly. In the real saying, it is called eating people's food, not. Another way of saying it is that the five constants and the six arts are superficial and have no appearance. The five constants are benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith. The six arts are the six subjects offered by the school (庠序) in the Western Zhou Dynasty, Li (etiquette), music (music), archery (archery), Yu (driving horses), Shu (literacy), and mathematics (calculation). In the past, the six arts generally referred to the basic talents of people. ”

Reading Mu Tao's text is like looking at still water. At first glance, the surface layer flows in one direction, but when you look at the bottom layer, it flows in the opposite direction. Forever layered on top of each other, bottomless. Looking at the people's full attention, the heart is pounding. When the water comes out, it makes people have the realization of enlightenment.

and good words.

Mu Tao's text is like his person. There are mountains and ravines in the chest, but the words are often dull. The contrast is so great that it is breathtaking. It is also Confucianism and Taoism, time and space scheduling, and it is turned into the heart, and it often makes amazing words. For example, in "The Enlarged Part", he speaks of "goodness", "law", and "the law of the jungle", he says: "There is a hornbill in Indonesia, whose horn turns crimson when it is in heat, which causes local lovers to knock it down to make ornaments and tokens—it must have been knocked down when the bird was alive." It's cruel, and there's no reason to talk about it. As soon as the part of any animal pleases the superior animal like man, the bad luck continues—there are far more creatures extinct because of human love than hatred or disgust, and the world is so hierarchical. Weak meat is the delicacy of the strong, this is the law. For example, in "The Head Is Bigger Than the Body", he said "money", he said: "There is nothing to say about money itself, coins or banknotes, the main whereabouts are through the palms of all kinds of hands." And the attitude of the people towards it is much more interesting - a rich peasant or a capitalist who is beaten or verbally insulted on the street is accused of being rich. At that time, money was synonymous with sin, and being rich was sin...... In elementary and junior high school education, whether or not to hand over the money found to the police is a serious moral issue, which is probably also unique to us. Only thirty years later, money is the most wonderful thing to be. It seems that the thrilling underneath the waves of ordinary life is like a pigeon's feather whirling, but it leaves a mark on his heart. The good and evil rights and wrongs that occur in the most prosperous and magnificent world seem to be overflowing with brilliance, and the thrills are all hidden in the imperceptible mutations and loss of control. And there is compassion in his statement, and compassion in his speech. It can be seen that his tone is quiet, restrained, internal, and good.

and Mu Taojun are only three sides of the relationship. I first met Mu Taojun in Langfang, Hebei. The companions laughed and greeted, but the others were often silent. Plaid shirt, black-rimmed glasses, a floral smile on his face, modest and tolerant. and familiar, occasionally a word, deep humor, often from the person laughing, laughing after thinking, but also. I met Mu Taojun again in the Inner Menggen River, when the Cangyuan Deep Ridge and the Elk River water. Mu Taojun still does not show the mountain dew, but does not show it. However, the way of friendship, treat people with kindness, honesty and reliability, and always do more than talk. The "Meiwen" publication edited by Mu Taojun strives for perfection and is applauded by others, and it is applauded by its peers because of its growing reputation. Three see Mu Taojun, in the ancient city of Xi'an. It can be seen that the "Meiwen" magazine and the "Newspaper Prose Award" operated by him have influenced the whole country. At the award ceremony, first-class scholars, winning friends are like clouds, and the sages are complete. His person is still low-key and introverted, subtle and gentle, and often hides behind others - things are done loudly, not loudly, not high-pitched, and they are treated as normal, which shows their character.

There are thousands of things in the chest, and there are spring and autumn at the bottom of the pen, which is a portrayal of Mu Taowen.
