Lotus is another year to open classic prose.

Since June, every time I walk into the park for morning exercise, I can see how beautiful the lotus in the lake is. Photographers from all walks of life gather at the lake in the park, and sometimes they can be seen after dinner. It can be said that I came in the glory of the sun and came back with the stars on my back. Those seemingly professional photographers hold "long guns and short guns", while non-professional photographers take photos directly with their mobile phones. They are shooting the most beautiful lotus flowers in their hearts from different angles.

I remember the first Chinese text "Moonlight on the Lotus Pond" left a deep impression on me. At that stage when I just passed the age of ignorance and understood something a little, I suddenly got lost in the artistic conception described by the teacher and couldn't get out for a long time. From then on, I like Chinese lessons so much, and I like being brought into different worlds by teachers.

In Moonlight on the Lotus Pond, Mr. Zhu Ziqing ingeniously portrayed various forms of lotus flowers by anthropomorphic methods, and compared modern people with Liang's Poems on Lotus Picking and Songs of Xizhou to express his yearning for freedom.

Today's society is free and open, and everyone has the opportunity to find a platform to show their personality. It should be said that it was an era that Mr. Zhu Ziqing yearned for and yearned for. "It was a lively season and a romantic season." However, in this era, what I see and think of is no longer the free competition of lotus, but her holiness and tranquility.

Warm-up jogging around the lake, enjoying the lotus flowers with different colors and postures all the way, suddenly remembered a sentence in "Moonlight on the Lotus Pond". I don't know whether it's because of overlooking or because of the variety of lotus, I always feel that the lotus in the lake doesn't seem to grow so high. This reminds me of a lotus flower I once saw in the lake in front of the White Horse Temple. At that time, I also noticed that every blue square brick on the ground in front of the temple was engraved with lotus flowers.

Standing on the trestle by the lake, practicing yoga and looking at the lotus flowers in front of you. Think about it carefully, in fact, what is the origin of lotus and Buddhism. According to legend, the Buddha stood on the lotus when he was born, which should be said to be a symbol of "Buddha". Lotus is closely related to Buddhism, because Buddhism takes many beautiful and sacred things as metaphors and lotus as its representative. There is a saying in Buddhism that "flowers bloom to see Buddha's nature", in which flowers refer to lotus, that is, the wisdom and realm of lotus. When people have a lotus state of mind, they will have Buddha nature. Buddhism requires people not to be disturbed and influenced by the evil and filth in the world, just like lotus flowers, to be in a dirty world without being polluted by it and to keep themselves clean and pure.

Lotus is not as elegant as peony, nor as aloof and lofty as chrysanthemum, but it blooms against the cool Xia Jiaoyang because of its characteristics of "getting out of the mud without being stained", winning the supreme worship of Buddhism. Of course, it is also said that after Sakyamuni realized, he rose to the north and walked around the tree. At that time, it was a step-by-step lotus, with a total of 18 lotus flowers. Whenever he preaches, he always sits on the lotus seat, that is, his legs are crossed and his feet are up. This is completely consistent with the "lotus sitting posture" when practicing yoga. Yoga originated in India and belongs to the same ancestor. Of course, for today's society, "cheap" is also "cheap".

Standing quietly by the lake, facing a pool of sacred lotus, my heart is quiet. It's like listening to a big lesson on Buddhism, philosophy and life, and seeing Guanyin walking slowly by the lotus in a whirling white dress. Life should also be like a lotus, and peace will give birth to a lotus step by step.

It's another year when the lotus blooms. Let us appreciate the moment when the lotus blooms. It can make our hearts flat, quiet, cheerful and detached like the lotus, and it should be sublimated in Buddhism with a delicate and clean spirit like the lotus.
