The legend of shangri-la

The word "Shangri-La" comes from the kingdom of Shambhala in Tibetan scriptures. In the history of Tibetan Buddhism, it is widely called the highest realm of "King of Purity", and in modern vocabulary, it is synonymous with "Eden, Utopia, Xanadu and Utopia". According to Tibetan scriptures, it is hidden in a secret place deep in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The whole kingdom is surrounded by double snow-capped mountains and consists of eight lotus petal-shaped areas. The snow-capped mountain, which also stands in the center, was originally named Karaba Palace, where the supreme leader of Shambhala kingdom lived. The legendary Shangri-La is the sage with the highest wisdom. They are tall and have natural strength. Up to now, they still communicate with the world through a secret passage called "the navel of the earth" from places that people can't see, and firmly control the world. In fact, for a long time, this mysterious "navel of the earth" passage has been the key to finding Shangri-La and the only way to reach Shangri-La Kingdom.

James hilton's novel The Lost Horizon tells the story of four westerners, including Conway, who were taken to the Blue Moon Valley in Shangri-La by a mysterious oriental hijacker when they were transferred to Peshawar from a place called Basku in the South Asian subcontinent during the war. Throughout Shangri-La described in the novel, various faiths coexist peacefully, and there are Christian churches, Buddhist temples, Taoist temples and Confucian ancestral temples everywhere. People adhere to the doctrine of the mean, and maintain a doctrine of the mean for everything, even for happiness. Shangri-La is a natural scenery-snow-capped mountains, glaciers, canyons, forests, meadows, lakes and wealth-rich in gold mines and pure air. It is a beautiful, clear, safe, leisure, long-distance, satisfying, quiet and harmonious destination for all beautiful human ideals. Here, in fact, Shangri-La has become an ideal country with a kind of harmony and tranquility. When this novel was published by Macmillan Publishing Company in London, England in April 1934, it caused an unexpected sensation among publishers and writers in Europe and soon sold well in the United States, Japan and other countries. After the novel was published, it was immediately made into a movie by a Hollywood production company with unique vision. This film is popular all over the world, and the theme song Shangri-La is sung all over the world. Later, the word Shangri-La was bought out by the Kwok family, a Hong Kong-Singapore entrepreneur, and became a hotel firm, which became popular all over the world and became one of the highest symbols of global hotel brands, confirming the great significance of Lost Horizon in humanities. The lost horizon has become the peach blossom source of westerners. The great significance of Lost Horizon lies in that it has implanted the artistic conception of paradise on earth into western cultural values. As the British Writers' Dictionary pointed out when commenting on the Lost Horizon, its merit lies in creating the word Shangri-La, a "paradise" for English vocabulary. Since then, this imaginary paradise on earth has become synonymous with Eden, Xanadu and Utopia.

Legend has it that once upon a time there was a pair of lovers who loved each other so much that even the gods in heaven were jealous of this feeling. The God of Darkness bet that they would be separated in the end, but god of light didn't believe it, so the God of Darkness set three conditions, saying that as long as they could overcome these three hardships, they would be happy forever. The first test is to send the god of jealousy. He sent many beautiful fairies to contact boys, hoping that there would be a gap between them, but girls trusted their lovers very much and never got jealous. So the god of darkness set a second test, that is, he sent the god of doubt. He let people around his lover often speak ill of each other, and even let many handsome guys seduce the girl, but they all seem to be as firm as iron. They talked openly and fell in love more. There is only one last test left. The god of darkness himself took the boy away and hid him in the dark forest, which made him suffer a lot, but he still found a more beautiful fairy to help and comfort him from time to time.

When the girl enjoyed splendor on the earth, she was elected as the queen and gained supreme power. However, in order to find her lover, the girl resolutely gave up all this. She climbed mountains and waded for three years. Later, she came to the desert and inadvertently helped the spirits of Ganquan. So in order to repay her, the elves told her that she could see her lover, but to turn it into a drop of dew, she had to get it back when the first sunshine shone on her in the morning. The girl was overjoyed, and she agreed, because in her heart, as long as she saw her lover safe and sound, even at a glance. The elves United to send her to the dark forest, where she saw the boy talking to the beautiful fairy and seemed to forget her existence. The girl is very sad, but she still insists on being with her lover. Later, the boy had an accident and only wanted to drink water in a coma. The girl immediately jumped into his mouth and let him swallow himself. The nutritious boy woke up, but he felt very painful, as if he had lost his beloved, so he asked heaven to tell him why. At this time, the god of light came out, but only told him that he could return to this world now because he needed a king. Finally, after the third three years, the god of darkness had to give up. Together with the god of light, he used his magic to restore the girl's body and reunite them. After learning the truth, the two lovers did not hate the gods in heaven, but thanked them for letting them know each other better. "

The boy returned to the earth and became king, and the beautiful fairy followed. She has been with him, taking care of him and giving him the greatest warmth. In this way, three years later, the boy refused to be a partner with the fairy. He has been looking for the girl, but there is no news. So he also chose to wander, went to the desert, and inadvertently helped the spirits of Ganquan. From the elves, he learned that his lover had become a part of his body. The boy is very sad. He cried for three days and nights and finally found an oasis to settle down. He washes his skin with sweet spring water every day, and every inch is well maintained, because he doesn't know where his lover is. The beautiful fairy kept coming to him and asked him to stay with her, but he refused. Courtiers from all over the country kept coming to him and asked him to go back, but he also refused. He only guards his body and talks to himself every day.
