What is a meditation tour? What exactly do you want to do on your meditation trip? Yunfu, Guangdong Province gave a sample.

With the development of social economy, people's quality of life is getting higher and higher, and tourism has gradually become an indispensable and important element in life, and there are more and more subdivisions of tourism, such as backpacking tour, group tour, go on road trip, flower viewing tour, industrial tour, art tour, etc. Among these tourism categories, meditation tour is relatively small, but it has won some high-income and high-pressure people.

What is a meditation tour? The word meditation originated in India, which means spiritual cultivation in Hindi. In other words, it means spiritual purification. The benefits of meditation are mainly reflected in people's hearts. If you can practice meditation regularly, you can relieve the pressure in your work, reduce the troubles and troubles in your life, and make people fundamentally free and easy. A few days ago, Yu Fan made an appointment with a few friends to travel to Yunfu, Guangdong, which was a rare meditation trip, because the Zen Spring Hot Spring Resort Hotel we stayed in was the only hot spring resort hotel in Guangdong with the theme of Zen culture, which contained many meditation projects suitable for tourists' experience, and several of them were highly recommended by me, so I would like to share them with you.

The first project I want to recommend to you is to copy the scriptures. Before copying the scriptures, you need to wash your hands and incense, and then find a place to sit down, so that you can copy the scriptures slowly. If you have a brush foundation, you can use a hard pen. If you don't have a brush foundation, you don't have to worry about fonts, don't care about collocation, don't have to think more, and even forget the meaning of words. It is the best meditation.

the second thing to recommend is to experience the hotel's dining hall, which actually means eating. For us tourists, it is not simply eating, but learning from the province through "dining hall". Like copying scriptures, there will be a grand ceremony before going to church, and there will be special staff to explain the precautions for going to church.

The staff told us that we should turn off the phone before meals and keep quiet all the time, and then show everyone how to hold chopsticks and bowls. When the staff adds food for everyone, how to show how much they want and how to show if they don't want it. When adding soup and porridge, how to make gestures when they are thin, how to make gestures when they are thick, and how to place the chopsticks when they finish eating.

Before eating, everyone should put their hands together, chant sutras with the staff, and then enjoy them slowly. In the process, you should chew quietly, avoid laughing and making noise, and avoid wasting leftovers. This is a huge contrast with our extravagance and waste in the hotel, and it is also a kind of improvement for our mood.

According to the staff, this is a traditional musical instrument, which integrates philosophy, religion, culture and art. Its musical sound is ethereal, delicate and melodious, with the tactfulness of classical instruments such as Xin, Guqin and Guzheng, and the strong penetration of some modern popular elements.

There are ten keys of different sizes on the color drum (I don't know what they are called in detail, so let's call them keys here). One * * has only five sounds, which respectively represent the five traditional sounds of ancient China, namely, Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng and Yu. On the side, there is a modern printed Le Shu with modern notation, namely, 1 and 2.

Under the guidance of the staff, it took us almost half an hour to get familiar with it, and then we could skillfully play a song "Cloud Water Zen Heart". I once posted a video on the Internet for details, so you can search for it if you are interested. According to the staff, this kind of empty drum can also be combined with tea ceremony culture, xiangdao culture, qindao culture, taiji, yoga, Hanfu, poetry, dance, meditation and meditation. This call from the depths of the soul touches the memory that will be forgotten through the auditory image, which makes people open-minded, comfortable, light and quiet. Everyone has the opportunity to experience it or buy it.

Since it is meditation, meditation is a must, and it is an essential project of meditation, which can bring physical and mental relaxation and make participants feel their own strength outside the noise. There is a special meditation hall in Zen Spring Hotel. There are two ways to meditate here. One is to meditate by yourself, and you don't need to make an appointment. You can adjust your body and mind after taking off your shoes, and the other is to meditate under the guidance of your tutor, which requires you to make an appointment with your tutor at the front desk.

If possible, it is best to make an appointment in advance and then meditate under the guidance of the staff. After all, meditation also requires some introductory skills. Before meditation, the staff will tell you how to cross your legs, how to adjust your breathing, and some specific methods and precautions for meditation. After meditation, there will be time for questions. For questions that you don't understand, the staff will answer them in his Zen language.

This is a meditation project with tea as the medium, and a self-cultivation lifestyle. It should be said that this is also a Zen tea culture, and its spirit is "integrity, purity, harmony and elegance". What does it mean? It is the right way to speak, purity is pure heart, harmony is six harmony and respect, and elegance is refined.

When listening to tea talk, we experienced six kinds of tea, including Longjing, Bai Mudan, black tea and Pu 'er. When the staff was brewing, they showed us the tea art and introduced us what it meant to listen to tea talk. She said that when drinking tea, we should concentrate on it with a positive mind to taste the color, fragrance and taste of tea. The so-called tea meditation is the same.

In addition to the above-mentioned projects, there are many other meditation projects in the Zen Spring, such as the Heart Lamp, which is a ritual of passing the lamp and wishing. You need to make an appointment in advance, and then put on special Zen clothes, hold the Heart Lamp and walk in meditation. Following the master in front, he knocked on the wooden fish, and then we walked step by step under the bodhi tree with a sense of rhythm and ceremony until our hearts completely calmed down. Finally, we came to the pool in front of the Sixth Ancestral Hall, made our wish and put the lamp in the pool. It is said that everything is very effective.

Here, you can also play Tai Chi, practice yoga, bathe in Zen Springs, practice meditation, enjoy delicious food, listen to Sanskrit, enjoy Zen scenery, realize Zen meaning and gain Zen mind. Meditation is different from other trips. The focus is no longer on the natural scenery of famous mountains and rivers, but on observing the freedom, practicing the heart, and returning to a simple and simple lifestyle from the worldly troubles. There is no luxury, no resplendence, but only a natural quiet, quiet and far-reaching, simple and harmonious life realm and attitude.

If one day, you feel tired and tired, then I suggest that you can, like me, temporarily put down your busy work and experience a few days of meditation in the Zen Spring, feel the inner realm of one flower, one world, one leaf and one bodhi with your heart, put aside worldly troubles and find your inner peace and true self.
