Buddha and cow dung-the story of Su Dongpo and Fo Yin

One day, Su Dongpo was sitting in meditation with his friend Fo Yin, and Su Dongpo asked Fo Yin, "Master, what do you think of me?" Fo Yin said: "In my eyes, a layman is like a Buddha." Then Fo Yin asked Su Dongpo, "What do you think of me, layman?" Su Dongpo said, "It's like a pile of cow dung." Fo Yin didn't get angry, but just laughed. When Su Dongpo came home, he proudly told his sister Su Xiaomei about it. After listening, Su Xiaomei said, "Brother, you lost. A person has a Buddha in his heart, and everything else is a Buddha. A person has cow dung in his heart, and everything is cow dung in his eyes. "

A person's vision and behavior are determined by his heart. A liar always feels that people all over the world want to cheat him. Honest people always think that world without thieves. This is also the meaning of "what a gentleman sees is all bad, and what a villain sees is all evil". Although people are not old in society now, and some ugly phenomena do hurt our feelings, please don't change your kind heart because people with cow dung in their hearts will be unhappy if they only see dirt. Only when the heart is full of sunshine, illuminating oneself and others, will life be happy. 2. Kneeling: exercises and answers of Su Shi's interesting little ancient prose

1. Su Shichuan Su Shi, with the word Zizhan, was born in Meishan, Meizhou.

after ten years' birth, my father has traveled around the world, and my mother, Cheng's family, has given me books, learned about the success or failure of ancient and modern times, and learned what to say. When Cheng read the Biography of Fan Pang in the Eastern Han Dynasty, he was so relieved that he asked, "If I am a poet, will my mother allow it?" Cheng Shi said, "If you can be evil, I can't be evil!" Compared with Guan, Bo Tong Jing Shi, which belongs to thousands of words every day, is a good book by Jia Yi and Lu Zhi.

After reading Zhuangzi, I sighed, "I saw something before, but I couldn't say it. Now I see it as a book, which has won my heart." Migrate to Xuzhou.

The river breaks Cao Village, flooding the water margin, overflowing the Nanqinghe River, and meeting at the gate. The city will be defeated if it rises and falls from time to time, and the people will strive to avoid water. Shi said, "If the people are shaken, who will keep them?"? I am here, and water must never defeat the city. "

drive re-entry. Shi Yi called the commander of Wu Weiying and said, "The river will harm the city, and it is urgent. Although the army is forbidden, do your best for me."

The commander of the pawn said, "The prefect is still unwilling to avoid scribbling, so let's be a villain." He led his disciples out with a cup of rice, built a southeast long embankment, started the circus first, and ended up in the city.

it rains day and night, and the city doesn't sink. Shi Lu lived on it, but he didn't live at home, so that officials blocked it and defended it, and he died in the whole city.

please transfer your husband, and build the old city as a wooden bank, so as to avoid the danger. The court worried about it.

Su Shi, Zi Zhan, is from meishan county, Meizhou. At the age of ten, his father, Su Xun, went abroad to study, and his mother, Cheng Shi, personally taught him to read. Every time Su Shi heard about the history of ups and downs in ancient and modern times, he could tell a summary.

When Cheng read The Biography of Fan Pang in the Later Han Dynasty, he gave a deep sigh. Su Shi said to her, "If I want to be as famous as Fan Pang, regardless of my life and death, will you agree?" Cheng said, "If you can be like Fan Pang, how can I not understand the righteousness as well as Fan Pang's mother?" As an adult, Su Shi learned a lot about Confucian classics and history, and wrote thousands of words every day. He liked the works of Jia Yi and Lu Zhi. Soon after reading Zhuangzi, I sighed, "I had some insights, but I couldn't say them. Today, I read this book and found it really won my heart."

When I go to Xuzhou to take up my post, a flood will burst its banks and flood Cao Cun. If it overflows on Liangshan Bo, it will overflow the South Qinghe River. Water collects at the gate, and the rising water will leak into the city from time to time, and the city will be defeated, and the rich people are vying to escape from the city to avoid water.

Su Shi said: If all the rich people leave the city, it will shake people's hearts. Then who will I defend the city with? As long as I am here, the water will never wash into the city. Drive the rich people back to the city.

When Su Shi went to Wuweiying, he called out the commander and said, The river is about to rush into the city, and it is urgent. Even the imperial guards should do their best for me. The commander said: If the prefect doesn't escape, we villains will certainly serve you.

So he led the people out of the city with cups, built a long dike from the southeast, started the circus, and reached the city gate. It rained day and night, but the city did not sink.

Su Shi lived on it, but he passed by the door and didn't go in. The officials were kept in various places, and all the soldiers went out of the city. 2. @ The Story of Su Shi and Fo Yin Su Shi, a great writer in the Song Dynasty, likes to talk about Buddhism and Taoism very much and has a good relationship with Zen master Fo Yin.

One day he called on Fo Yin and asked, "What do you think I am?" Fo Yin said, "I think you are a Buddha."

When Su Shi heard about it, Fo Yin asked Su Shi again, "What do you think I am?" Su Shi wanted to give Fo Yin a hard time and said, "I think you are a piece of shit." Fo Yin was silent after hearing this (maybe he was too angry to speak).

So Su Shi proudly ran home to see Su Xiaomei and boasted to her about how he choked on Jackson Fo Yin today. Su Xiaomei listened to keep shaking his head and said, "Brother, your realm is too low. Fo Yin has a Buddha in his heart, and everything is a Buddha.

You have shit in your heart, so looking at others is a piece of shit. " @ Su Dongpo and Huang Tingjian live in Jinshan Temple.

one day, they made bread to eat. The two agreed not to tell the monk Fo Yin in the temple about this cake fight.

after a while, when the cake was cooked, the two of them counted the number, first presented the cake to the Guanyin Bodhisattva, bowed down and prayed diligently. Unexpectedly, Fo Yin had been hidden in the account of God in advance, and when they knelt down to pray, they reached out and stole two cakes.

When Su Shi finished worshipping, he got up and saw that two cakes were missing. Then he knelt down and prayed, "Guanyin Bodhisattva is so magical that she ate two cakes. Why didn't she come out to meet her?" Fo Yin replied in the account: "If I have noodles, I will join you to make some food. How dare I bother you?" @ Su Dongpo is in Hangzhou and likes to make friends with monks in West Lake Temple. He is best friends with monk Fo Yin of the Holy Mountain Temple, and they often joke while drinking and reciting poems.

Monk Fo Yin is delicious. Whenever Su Dongpo gives a banquet, he always comes uninvited. One night, Su Dongpo invited Huang Tingjian to visit the West Lake, and many dining tables were prepared on board.

When the cruise ship was off the coast, Su Dongpo smiled and said to Huang Tingjian, "Fo Yin has to arrive at every party. Tonight, let's take a boat to the lake to drink and sing poems and have a good time. He can't come anyway. "Who knows Fo Yin monk long ago found out that Su Dongpo wanted to swim with Huang Tingjian, so he hid under the cabin board when they didn't get on the boat.

The bright moon is in the sky, the cool breeze is refreshing, and the lotus fragrance fills the lake. The cruise ship slowly arrives at the Three Pagodas of the West Lake. Su Dongpo holds his glass and flicks his beard, and happily says to Huang Tingjian, "Today, we are quiet without Fo Yin. Let's start with a wine order. The first two sentences should be immediate, and the last two sentences should end with the word" zai ". "Huang Tingjian said," All right! Su Dongpo first said: When the clouds are parted and the bright moon comes out, what can the sky say? What does heaven say? Huang Tingjian looked at the lotus flowers all over the lake, and then said: Lianping brushed aside and swam out of the fish, which was a good thing! Get what you want! At this time, Fo Yin couldn't resist being under the cabin board. As soon as he heard Huang Tingjian's words, he pushed the cabin board away and climbed out, saying, "Pull the boat board aside, and Fo Yin will come out. What a shame!"! Suppress people! Su Dongpo and Huang Tingjian were startled when they saw a man suddenly crawling out from under the planking. When they looked carefully, it turned out to be Fo Yin, and they couldn't help laughing when they heard him say such four poems.

Su Dongpo took Fo Yin to sit down and said, "You hid it well, and you were right. You ate it again today! So, the three people enjoyed the moon and swam around the lake, talking and laughing. 3, topic 1, explain the following words (ancient prose) 1, rape 2, no 3, very 4, go to the second translation of the following sentences, so that the son of heaven is isolated, not the main bark? Third, who is the "Dongpo" of the "Dongpo Cloud" in the text? Have you read any of his other works? Fourth, Dongpo's point of view in this article is. 3. Su Dongpo's composition on shit and Buddha

Title: Buddha is in his heart Su Dongpo said that Fo Yin in his eyes is a pile of shit; And Fo Yin said that Su Dongpo is a Buddha in his eyes; Su Xiaomei said, Brother, you are wrong.

"Buddha's heart shows itself". Su Dongpo was wrong, but he suffered a big loss when he thought he took advantage: he belittled himself when he slandered the other side-"If you look at others as shit, it means you look at yourself as shit."

therefore, if you want to be respected by others, you must respect others first. Only when we regard each other as a Buddha can we become a Buddha.

where is the Buddha? Right in your heart. If you have a Buddha in your heart, you will see that others are Buddhas, and you will truly become Buddhas.

And Buddha is a realm, a symbol of noble soul. Remember Li Shutong? A rich boy, for the love in his heart, he became a monk.

once, he was a guest in his student's home. Before he was about to sit down, he patted the cane chair gently. The student asked him why. He replied: in order to let the bugs get away. Li Shutong still respects and cares for bugs as small as the tip of a needle, let alone people. And his respect for everything in the world finally won the respect of everything in the world! His Buddhist heart is as bright as the full moon in the sky, which has been shining on the land of China for hundreds of years and even the whole world.

There is a Buddha in my heart, so Li Shutong is the incarnation of Buddha. Besides Li Shutong, there is another person who also has Buddha-like love.

He is a Russian Olympian. His name is no longer important, what is important is the beautiful freeze frame between the waves he left to people.

In the last Olympic Games, this athlete performed very well in the floor exercise, but his score was far lower than that of American and Japanese athletes who performed generally later. The audience was angered by the performance of the judges.

But instead of talking to the judges, the contestant waved to the audience and told them to calm down. Although he didn't win the Olympic gold medal, he has set up a monument in the hearts of the audience and the people of the world! He is not a Buddha, but he is better than a Buddha.

His respect for his opponent and the judges finally won the respect of people all over the world. This is what the Buddha wants us to do: respect each other and love everything.

Buddha can win respect, love and the world if he is in his heart. When we stretch out a finger to curse, don't forget that there are three fingers pointing at ourselves.

Therefore, when we meet the so-called enemy or opponent, we should learn to respect each other and let go of the opponent. In that way, we will have Buddha's heart and Buddha's nature in our hearts, and we will become Buddhas ourselves. Buddha is in my heart.

Look at each other with kindness and treat everything in the world with tolerance, and everything in the world will return you a harmonious and beautiful world. 4. Guan and Su Shi and Fo Yin said the composition of Cow Dung

Su Dongpo and the monk Fo Yin are good friends. One day, Su Dongpo said to Fo Yin, "What am I in the eyes of a master?" Fo Yin said, "In the eyes of the poor monk, the benefactor is my Buddha's golden body." Su Dongpo was naturally happy to hear his friend say that he was a Buddha. But when he saw Fo Yin's fat piles, he wanted to tease him and said with a smile, "But in my opinion, the master is a pile of cow dung." Fo Yin didn't feel unhappy when he heard Su Dongpo say that he was "a pile of cow excrement", but said: "The Buddha is born from the heart, there is a Buddha in the heart, and everything he sees is a Buddha; My heart is cow shit, and everything I see turns into cow shit. " It is Su Dongpo, a great talent, who suffers.

there is a Buddha in your heart, but what you see is a Buddha. If you have a Buddha in your heart, you probably have a heart of benevolence, kindness, sincerity, gratitude, compassion, generosity and tolerance. With such a heart, you can see the world, life and life, and you will probably see the beauty of the world, the blue sky, the lovely flowers and birds and the true feelings of the world. There is happiness in the heart, and everything you see is happy; There is happiness in the heart, and everything you see is happy. Moreover, it will let us see the true face of things and taste the beauty contained in life. We will be grateful if we have a Buddha in our hearts and our neighbors connect the fuses. People will smile when they help my car; Seeing someone give up his seat, he will send a compliment; Someone saved their loved ones, and they should be grateful. In this way, won't everyone live in happiness and happiness? In this way, won't our interpersonal relationship be warmer, more harmonious and more like a spring breeze? 5. Su Dongpo called Fo Yin monk bald donkey face to face, and how Fo Yin monk retorted

(statue of Su Dongpo)

Su Dongpo and Fo Yin monk are good friends. They often talk about poetry and painting together, and often make fun of each other and have fun.

One day, Su Dongpo rode a donkey with no neck hair to see Fo Yin because of his sprained foot. As soon as they met, the two began to tease and laugh. After talking for a while, Su Dongpo suddenly asked, "Where is the bald donkey?"

Fo Yin knew that Su Dongpo was playing a trick on himself, so he kept saying, "Hey, eating grass in Dongpo."

Su Dongpo wanted to taunt Fo Yin monk, but he was turned against an army by Fo Yin, which was rather embarrassing, but he just smiled and said nothing.

(Monk-picture has nothing to do with it)

Two friends came to the river and took a boat trip. At that time, Fo Yin monk was holding a poem by Su Dongpo in his hand, and the boat arrived in the middle of the river. Fo Yin deliberately threw Su Dongpo's poem into the water, then looked at Su Dongpo and said with a smile, "Water flowing Dongpo's poem (corpse)."

Su Dongpo doesn't need to be annoyed when he knows that Fo Yin is cursing himself with homophonic words. At this time, it happened that a dog ran over with a bone in its mouth on the shore. Su Dongpo suddenly had a brainwave and said with a smile, "The dog bit the bone on the river." Also responded to Fo Yin monk with homophonic.

after hearing this, Fo Yin gave Su Dongpo a punch with a smile, and they both smiled at each other.

(The picture has nothing to do with the text) 6. When Su Shi was fighting with France and India, Su Dongpo said that he was like a lump of shit, and France and India said that Su Dongpo was like a Buddha.

One day, Su Dongpo went to talk to Fo Yin Zen Master. Su Dongpo said to Fo Yin, "I have been studying Buddhism very diligently recently. What do you think of my sitting posture now?" Fo Yin praised: "Like a Buddha." Su Dongpo was very happy to hear that. Fo Yin then asked, "What do you think of me?" In order to overwhelm Fo Yin, Su Dongpo replied, "Like a piece of shit." Fo Yin also smiled. Su Dongpo was very happy when he got back, and he advertised everywhere that he had defeated Fo Yin this time. After listening to this, Su Xiaomei said to his brother, "Brother, don't spread it around. In fact, you lost." Su Dongpo is puzzled. Su Xiaomei continued: "Fo Yin has a Buddha in his heart, so he thinks everyone is a Buddha. You have shit in your heart, so everyone is shit. "

From this interesting story, we can continue to deduce the attitude of Buddhism towards bad words. When someone swears at the Zen master, the Zen master does not retort, but "he is not right, I am not left" (see "Six Ancestors Tanjing"). When he scolds him, I am unmoved. In addition, for the abusive "he", he is pregnant with sympathy and compassion, not hatred.
