致妙清:漫步楊升庵祠的感悟
昨天上午,我在楊升庵祠中悠然漫步,本是追尋一份寧靜與歷史的沉淀,卻意外地邂逅了一對特殊的母子。
那是一個癡呆兒,他的手扭曲著,走路一瘸一拐,說話也含糊不清。他的母親在一旁悉心幫扶著他,眼神中滿是關(guān)愛與耐心。
看到這一幕,起初我心中涌起的是同情。然而,當(dāng)我進一步思考,卻有了截然不同的感悟。我發(fā)現(xiàn),這個癡呆兒或許是世界上最幸福的人。
他沒有我們常人所困擾的人情世故。在我們的生活中,為了維系各種關(guān)系,常常不得不戴上虛假的面具,說著言不由衷的話,內(nèi)心疲憊不堪。而他,無需如此,他的世界單純而直接。
他也沒有利益紛爭的煩惱。我們在社會的競爭中,為了名利地位,不擇手段,勾心斗角,心靈逐漸被腐蝕。但他,全然不知這些爭斗,心靈保持著最初的純凈。
更不會有像我在工作中所經(jīng)歷的,誰當(dāng)科主任,誰得到領(lǐng)導(dǎo)寵幸的痛苦。這種職場的傾軋,讓人焦慮不安,失去自我。
這讓我想起了《心經(jīng)》中的“心無掛礙,無掛礙故,無有恐怖”。我們之所以痛苦煩惱,正是因為心中有太多的牽掛和執(zhí)念。而這個癡呆兒,他的心智不健全,反而沒有這些掛礙,所以他能活得無憂無慮。
《金剛經(jīng)》里說“一切有為法,如夢幻泡影,如露亦如電,應(yīng)作如是觀”。我們所追求的功名利祿,不過是過眼云煙,轉(zhuǎn)瞬即逝。而我們卻常常為了這些虛幻的東西,忽略了生活中最真實的幸福。
楊升庵也曾有詩句:“是非成敗轉(zhuǎn)頭空,青山依舊在,幾度夕陽紅。”歷史的長河中,多少英雄豪杰、功成名就之人,最終都化為塵土。而真正能留下來的,是那份對生活的熱愛和對人性本真的堅守。
這個癡呆兒,他雖然在智力和身體上有缺陷,但他卻以一種特殊的方式,讓我們看到了生活的本質(zhì)。他的存在提醒著我們,不要被世俗的紛擾所迷惑,要珍惜當(dāng)下,回歸內(nèi)心的平靜。
在這個紛繁復(fù)雜的世界里,我們總是在不停地追逐,卻忘記了最初的夢想和真正的幸福。我們應(yīng)該學(xué)會放下那些不必要的包袱,像這個癡呆兒一樣,簡單純粹地生活。
或許,真正的幸福并不是擁有多少財富和權(quán)力,而是擁有一顆純凈的心,一份真摯的愛,和對生活的無限熱愛。讓我們在這喧囂的塵世中,保持一份清醒,不被虛榮和利益所左右,用心去感受生活中的點滴美好。
Yesterday morning, I was strolling leisurely in Yang Shengan Memorial Temple. Originally, I was seeking a sense of tranquility and the precipitation of history, but unexpectedly encountered a special mother and son.
It was a mentally handicapped child. His hand was distorted, he walked with a limp, and his speech was also unclear. His mother was assisting him carefully beside him, with eyes full of love and patience.
Seeing this scene, at first, sympathy welled up in my heart. However, upon further reflection, I had a completely different perception. I discovered that this mentally handicapped child might be the happiest person in the world.
He didn't have the sophistication of human relationships that troubles us ordinary people. In our lives, in order to maintain various relationships, we often have to wear false masks, say insincere words, and our hearts are extremely tired. But he doesn't need to do so. His world is simple and direct.
He also didn't have the troubles of disputes over interests. In the competition of society, we resort to all means, intrigue against each other for fame and fortune, and our souls are gradually eroded. But he has no idea about these struggles at all, and his soul remains initially pure.
Nor would he have the pain like I experienced at work, such as who becomes the department director and who gains the favor of the leader. This kind of workplace rivalry makes people anxious and lose themselves.
This reminds me of the words in the "Heart Sutra": "With no attachments, because of no attachments, there is no terror." The reason why we are distressed and troubled is precisely because there are too many concerns and obsessions in our hearts. But this mentally handicapped child, with his incomplete mental capacity, doesn't have these attachments, so he can live carefree.
In the "Diamond Sutra", it is said, "All conditioned phenomena are like a dream, an illusion, a bubble, and a shadow. They are like dew and lightning, and should be regarded thus." The fame and fortune we pursue are just passing clouds, fleeting and transient. But we often, for these illusory things, neglect the most real happiness in life.
Yang Shengan once wrote in his poem: "Right and wrong, success and failure turn empty in an instant. The green mountains still exist, and the setting sun glows several times." In the long river of history, no matter how many heroes and those who achieved great success, eventually all turned to dust. What can truly remain is the love for life and the perseverance of the true nature of humanity.
This mentally handicapped child, although he has intellectual and physical disabilities, in a special way, shows us the essence of life. His existence reminds us not to be confused by the disturbances of the secular world, but to cherish the present and return to the peace of our hearts.
In this complicated world, we are always chasing constantly but forget our initial dreams and true happiness. We should learn to let go of those unnecessary burdens and live simply and purely like this mentally handicapped child.
Perhaps, true happiness is not about having much wealth and power, but having a pure heart, a sincere love, and an infinite love for life. Let us maintain a sense of clarity in this noisy world, not be swayed by vanity and interests, and feel the beauty in every bit of life with our hearts.
May we all draw inspiration from this mentally handicapped child, find our own path to happiness, and let life bloom with the most real and brilliant light.

"Insights from Strolling in Yang Shengan Memorial Temple"
