Section 1 Sitting in the red dust and watching the clouds rise is my happiness

All the best in the new year, starting from the beginning of the new year!

In a year, only I believe in religion on the first day of the first lunar month, and it has become a rule for the New Year to go to Daxingshan Temple on the first day of the new year. The reason why I went to Daxingshan Temple was because it was close to my home, and second, I really hadn't been to any temple in the city, and I didn't know where the others were. This may be my single-minded ****, hehe. Another familiar temple is the Pure Industry Temple. This temple is far away from my home, so it is not very convenient to go on the first day of the new year.

This year, the process of burning incense at Daxingshan Temple is the same, and the harvest is very different.

Today, it is also crowded with people, and there are people holding incense sticks everywhere. I'm still careful, worried about my clothes being touched. After burning incense in front of the incense burner outside the main hall, I still did not line up, I entered the main hall from the side, put down the incense money and incense, and then went to other halls. And the people in line are more religious than me, and they are going to bow and kowtow.

When I came out of the Daxiong Treasure Hall and passed by the tall and majestic west gable while talking with my companions, I suddenly looked up and saw the plaque in the middle "sit and watch the clouds rise".

This hall has been built for four years, and I have seen these four big characters hanging high in the middle of the wall painted with blue color and flying eaves in previous years, but this time it is so direct to the heart, and I suddenly woke up!

If I can sit in the red dust and watch the clouds rise, it will be the greatest happiness in this life! Because, on the journey of life, most of us are in a hurry, and at the same time, we miss many good scenery, and at the same time, our hearts cannot rest. If you can calmly face the complicated and laborious affairs, and move forward with an attitude of appreciating the scenery, it will be the enjoyment of life. "Sit and watch the clouds rise", this is the state of mind I should have. To be able to do this is to live a prosperous life and a prosperous life.

For this, thank God for making me understand this truth at the beginning of the new year!

Two

I have to climb the mountain on the third day of the Lunar New Year. In previous years, I went to the fourth or fifth day of junior high school, but this year I want to go up the mountain on the third day of junior high school.

Every year, the mountain climb starts from Fengyu. Descending from Fengde Temple, occasionally descending from Pure Industry Temple. This year is different, specifically from the Pure Industry Temple.

When I stopped at the gate of the Pure Industry Temple, I saw a fat white man not far away who looked like a monk in his attire, but who didn't behave like a monk, and looked at me that he was talking to two people, and when he heard the sound of me pressing the lock on the car door, he turned around in shock. And I had an argument with my full-time driver in the car just now (I saw it on TV in the evening, saying that it is not appropriate to go out on the third day of junior high school, there will be a dispute of tongues, and it seems that what the ancestors left behind is not all superstition. I'm angry at this moment. So, he closed the car door and began to enter the mountain gate.

When I walked into the mountain gate and started to go up the steps, I repeatedly told myself not to be angry, not to be angry. After a while, the mood calmed down, and after a short while, the mood improved.

When you are in a good mood, you start to enjoy the joy of climbing the mountain. I saw that there were not many people going up the mountain today, except for the three white fat men I met at the gate of the mountain just now, and I also saw a man carrying a child up the mountain from a distance, and there was a woman with a little boy behind him.

When you're in a good mood, you'll talk a lot. When the handsome young father walked up to me, we greeted each other. I was interested in the child he was carrying up the mountain, because it is very difficult to see a baby stroller carrying a child on his back in the country. He was interested in what I was wearing, so we chatted enthusiastically. I learned that their family was a returnee and had just returned to China to start a business within the year. He graduated from Stanford, and his mother's undergraduate school was in our school.

Kiss and kiss, this time it's lively. Our intimacy made the white fat man who came up together curious. He didn't seem to understand why we didn't talk to him along the way.

When we went up to the entrance door of the Pure Industry Temple, we read the two traditional Chinese characters carved on the stone on the door, and the white fat man corrected us and said that the pronunciation of "Yunkai" was not the "Yunguan" pronounced by the students. The lady who came up with them wasted no time in saying, "All the stone carvings on this mountain are carved by this master." The white fat man immediately said: I asked someone to engrave it, not me, I can't engrave it. “

Oh, and I was in awe when I heard that! It seems that he is familiar with this place.

At this time, I remembered that on the first day of the new year, in the pictures of the Pure Industry Temple sent by my traveler Wen Ru, I saw a few scenes that I had not seen, so I took out my mobile phone and let the white fat man see it. He looked at it and said, "This is in the back, I'll show you later."

Hearing him say this, I was curious and said: Excuse me, who are you?

"I'm Xinyi. He said, holding his head up.

I smiled and said, "Well, it turns out that you are the heart one." I've heard of it for a long time. I have read the articles you wrote, and the writing is very high.

It's like meeting an old friend. I hurriedly introduced to the two returnees: this is Master Xinyi of the Chang'an District Buddhist Association, and he will take us to visit in a moment.

Heart 1: I am President Fu.

The two friends were happy all of a sudden: yes, yes, it's really fate today.

Shinichi led us in through the main entrance. I said that I used to enter through that side door. He said that when entering the temple, you must walk through the main entrance. Then he took us to the main hall and told us the rules of entering the temple. After eating oranges and offering fruits in the main hall. Xinyi asked Master Tianhui for a large plate of keys, led us to the newly built ring altar, and explained to us in an all-round way. Every room opens up for us to see, including Ben Rushi's bedroom.

After looking at it, I felt that this building looks very ordinary from the outside, and the layout and facilities of any room in the interior are very exquisite. Of all the rooms, I was most interested in the hall with its gold leaf walls, and the hall was littered with rocks. Xinyi said that the room was built on the mountain, and the mountain was naturally in the room. And the position of the gold leaf is said to be waiting for the arrival of the Buddha relics. On this matter, I had a few words with President Xinyi. The student on the side said, "Ouch, you know so much, teacher." I'm so familiar with the affairs here.

Her words made my face heat up. That's what the sky told me at the time. It's just that I didn't mention him today.

President Xinichi is very enthusiastic, and the enthusiasm is unexpected. In addition to a detailed explanation of each attraction, take us to the abbot's office and study and bedroom bathroom. I really don't want to go to the abbot's bedroom. Therefore, I said, "If we go into the bedroom, will he feel the powdery gas?"

Heart One: Come on, come on. A rare opportunity for you to take a closer look at how the abbot lived. I've shown you all the places today. It's not a place where you can come in casually.

The students who came together were very interested, and the family of four followed. I had no choice but to go in.

After a scribbled look, he opened the wooden gate of a small courtyard, and the Tibetan mastiff inside screamed, and the dull roar of the lion on the side of the meditation hall was also clearly heard, making us feel like we were in a zoo for a while. Follow him to a small pavilion, and Xinyi said that this is the place where the abbot will meet guests outside.

There were two chaise longues in the pavilion, and he pointed to one of them and said, "This one belongs to the abbot."

A four-year-old child sat on it. Xinyi said: You have experienced the feeling of being an abbot, and you will be an abbot when you grow up.

Oh, he said that so suddenly. For a moment, the child's mother and I laughed awkwardly. The child's father said, "Don't say that."

The heart said: Why can't you say it. How good it is for you to have two sons, one to stay with you, and the other to send to the temple.

I hurriedly said: What about the New Year, don't say that.

The little boy may have sensed that what we were talking about was not good for him, and he got up and wept and walked away. The child's mother smiled and said, "You are afraid of leaving you here."

I pulled the child and said, "This abbot is a scholar of knowledge, and if you sit in his chair, you will be smarter, study better in the future, and be a more knowledgeable scientist."

The little one's face improved a little when he heard me say this.

Phew, I breathed a sigh of relief, the child finally has no shadow in his heart! Otherwise, I am sorry for the student's family.

Leaving here, Master Xinyi turned to another small pavilion. He said, "What do you see?"

The location of this pavilion is so good, it hangs on the top of the hill. I walked forward and saw that there was a "Pinshan Pavilion" written by Huang Tingjian in the pavilion. Standing inside and looking forward, I saw the reclining Buddha on the opposite mountain. This is the second time I've seen the reclining Buddha on the opposite hill. The last time was when Tianchang took me to see it in the meditation hall. And seeing it in this pavilion makes me feel that the three words 'Pinshan Pavilion' are appropriate!

Therefore, I blurted out: This pavilion is the most suitable for me here, because I am a Pinshan person.

But now that I think about it, it's not all right. I am not a mountain person, but a mountain watcher. That is, sit in the red dust and watch the clouds rise!

Seeing this, I really praise the concept and taste of this Rushi! Because the design and planning here are all from his ideas.

Of course, as far as today's visit is concerned, I also praise President Xinyi! He was attentive to me. Because, after we left Pinshan Pavilion, he took us into a house again. When I saw it, it was the abbot's study. Isn't that what we saw when we came in. When I was skeptical, he said: There is a bathroom inside, you can go and see it, experience it, the opportunity is rare.

I listened and wanted to laugh. At this moment, the child who was sitting in the abbot's chair and his younger brother ran in. His mother followed him and said, "Do you want to pee?"

I listened and quickly followed. Thinking of Xinyi's words just now, now the child is going to urinate in the abbot's toilet again, and it feels inappropriate. When I went in, I saw that the child was urinating.

This is really, really urinated with the abbot, which made my heart go up and down. came out to look at Master Xinyi, and felt a little uncomfortable. When we were in the abbot's bedroom, I found a bathroom that was hidden next to it. But I didn't expect Xinyi to arrange to be here at the end. If it weren't for the fact that he said that the child would be the abbot, this arrangement would have been really meticulous. But now that the kid is doing it again, it makes me feel like we've fallen into his trap.

Therefore, when he told me the origin of that row of scriptures, I did not listen carefully.

Still, when I walked out of the abbot's office, I didn't want to do that. Master Xinyi said unintentionally, and I can't be superstitious. Moreover, his thoughtful reception today made me feel that he was a very learned person.

After seeing all the scenic spots, Xinyi warmly invited us to drink tea in the room of Zhongnan Painting and Calligraphy Academy. I wanted to climb the mountain, so I took my leave, leaving the student's family here.

Leave the temple and start the mountain. Thinking about what happened today, I feel that today's events are really unclear. He never showed me around when the sky was here, because he knew I was not religious. And it was just because I had the opportunity to visit the meditation hall and this altar building in detail. Last time, Master Tianchang also showed me all the places and rooms like this.

All this can only be said to be fate. Unfortunately, this time, like the last time, I was not very interested. Last time, I was very interested in the courtyard of the meditation hall, but this time it was Pinzan Pavilion that I really liked.

I started to climb the mountain with a happy mood. After climbing the mountain for the first time in the new year, after meeting a group of travelers I knew in the Pure Industry Temple, everything was the same as I imagined, and I was ready to cross once. Walk from Donggou to the land beam, and then go out of the mountain from Fengde Temple.

I didn't even walk on the land beam to climb the mountain in the second heavy snow a year ago, so I must go today. When I walked alone on the land beam, I was in a good mood and was about to fly, and I laughed happily!

Sitting on the top of the small hill on the beam, sitting and watching the clouds and mist in the mountain, my heart blossomed. Sigh that I am fortunate to sit and watch the clouds rise in this life, and I am lucky to have not missed the scenery of every trip! For this reason, I told myself that I must be a good person and live up to God's gift!

Climb the mountain for the first time in the new year, do what you want, and complete the crossing safely and successfully!
