I wanted to see what technical open classes are there, but I accidentally saw Ye Jiaying's lecture on Li Shangyin.
I had the impression, for the poet, in fact, only the mind " Zither unprovoked fifty string, a string a column of Chinese thought ."
I used to memorize these things just to cope with exams. Although I also feel that the poem is very beautiful, but in fact, I don’t know much about why the poet wrote this poem and what he wanted to express.
Seeing Mr. Ye combined with the explanation of these poems with his own life experience, it suddenly made me feel that this is the right way to open the poem.
When you encounter a predicament similar to that of a poet, or understand the fate and mood of the poet at the time, come to read those poems. That resonance is the charm of poetry.
Mr. Ye read Li Shangyin's " Why should you be on tens of billions of lotus flowers, one lotus sees the body of the Buddha ". Combined with the predicament she suffered at the time, she wrote " Tathagata is a fantasy, how can we save the common people ." It feels like a conversation. This feeling is really amazing and I like it very much.
I am very happy to see such a class. It seems that there is something for fun again.
