@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Welcome! 欢迎!@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Welcome to my virtual home. This is a little private space for me to put my thoughts and share my feelings since 2005. Due to my wide range of interests, there are perhaps too many tags. I would explain some of the less obvious tags:

"About Life" is really about how I have been pondering about life and what enlightenments and paradigm shifts I had experienced.

"About Psi" contains most topics about happiness, optimism vs pessimism,
confidence, comparison, pride and prejudice and other psychological aspects.

"About Logical Thinking" is about my own way of interpretating and explaining
certain issues, aiming to debunk (or create?) superficialness of them.

"About Ideology" is about my thoughts on big concepts like freedom, justice,
fairness in society and religion.

"About Society" is more about my observations about the society, often through interactions with different peoples.

"My Country" reveals my frustration, critics and hope
on my homeland - Malaysia.

"My Little Pieces" has more short posts though mostly are written in Mandarin.

While I do have some posts on book reviews and business, I am planning to
separate them into author-specific and content-specific blogs. Stay tuned.

Enjoy your reading!

大地的母亲

湖弧荡,影映禅

我喜欢一个人与大自然共处,缓慢的生生不息能让心灵回归最原始的宁静。我喜欢坐在地上看着天上,任烦忧给微风拂走,与云一同无拘地漫游。这不是对人间纷扰的逃避,而是对大自然的回归。谁说一个人只能有一个家呢?至亲可以是一个,朋友可以是一个,环境更可以是一个,而且是最慈祥的一个。

听说过吗?赤脚走在青葱的草地上,可以释放城市忙碌生活里所积存的静电,让人的心情更轻松。赤脚行,赤子心;可惜在社会环境的限制下,我们都没有这种奢侈。

有一次和爸爸晨运时,对着高耸青葱的大树,他说人总要到了他这个年纪,才会开始懂得欣赏树的美。这道理大抵上是对的吧,但人未必都需要历经荣辱富贵尝尽人间冷暖才懂得回归,也未必需要“化”才懂得欣赏。喜欢,可以有很多个理由;回归,也可以有很多个理由,因人而异,因人的天性和成长环境而异。

只是,我们还有多少时间共处?以现在社会发展和消耗资源的速度来看。当我们都身陷资本主义推动出来的欲望无限扩张,就算有人想作尊菩萨,也只能找到泥。之前看过一篇关于禅的文章,觉得挺有意思。欲望,不仅仅包括物质上的,也包括精神上的;一个人要追求禅,不仅仅要生活得清贫,精神上也要过得贫乏。想想看,其实挺对的。物质上的需求,很多时候是由精神上的欲望所推动的;而精神上的追求,无论如何也要通过物质的形式来实现。关于这两者的交叉,岂是自以为清高,标榜自己不崇尚物质主义如此简单……

这是一个最好的年代,也是一个最坏的年代。最好的,就是让人作为欲望的动物得到前所未有最大程度的解放;最坏的,就是让大自然的生生不息得到前所未有最大程度的破坏。我们的所有成就,都是建立在大地母亲的痛苦之上;无论我们要不要追求成就,要不要追求禅,这一点少少意识和感恩都是不可少的。

或许,一切就怪我们太年轻了吧,不知晓母亲承受的痛苦而肆意展现活力,直至有一天过了头,大地已太苍老而不能支持我们时,我们只能相拥而泣,与天地同灭……而那一天的到来,或许并不是一场悲剧。
