Modern people can be because of "less and no vulgar rhyme" and retreat is rare, and return to the countryside is different, modern retreat is really to the deep mountains and old forests, sparsely populated places, or Taoist temples, or famous mountains, or temples. There is a mountain in our country, which is often chosen as a place of retreat: "There is a thatched hut in the south of the end, and the front is facing the south mountain."
There are no guests all year round, and there is no intention to stay idle all day long. This mountain is Zhongnan Mountain, this poem comes from "Answer Zhang's Fifth Brother", written by a poet of the Tang Dynasty, it can be seen that Zhongnan Mountain has been crowned as a place of seclusion for thousands of years.
Jungnam Mountain. Zhongnan Mountain, located in Chang'an fifty miles to the south, is a main peak of the Qinling Mountains. The environment is quiet and the climate is pleasant, suitable for farming.
Zhongnan Mountain is one of the origins of Taoism, so it has become the choice of hermits to retreat. Lao Tzu, Wen Shi Zhenren Yin Xi, and Jiang Ziya of the Western Zhou Dynasty all lived in seclusion here.
Portrait of Lao Tzu. Today, there are still many hermits living here on Jungnam Mountain. Among them, there is a chief hermit who has lived in seclusion here for more than 30 years, and his daily diet is boiled cabbage, and he has become a stranger when he meets his parents here.
He is Master Danhou, who has come to Zhongnan Mountain since he was young.
The daily life consists of meditating in the morning, then studying Taoist books, going out to work in the afternoon, returning to the residence at sunset, and resting at night.
Meditation. He learned medicine on his own and used it as an emergency. Drink dew every morning to quench your thirst, eat cabbage at noon and evening, and live an almost primitive life. There is neither electricity nor mobile phones, and the lifestyle is extremely retro.
He has an acre of farmland and a hut on the mountain, and his life is simple and boring, which is unbearable for ordinary people, and even more difficult to persevere. But Master Hou has lived here for more than 30 years, and now, there is"The first hermit of Zhongnan Mountain"The title.
Thirty years have passed by a snap of a finger, but when Master Hou first arrived at Zhongnanshan, he was only a young man in his early twenties, and now he is a middle-aged man who has passed the age of knowing his fate. Until now, he is holding on to his beliefs.
-
Yes, because of his long period of seclusion and isolation from the world, his appearance has changed very dramatically.
-
Yes. Because he has been in seclusion for too long, his own appearance has changed greatly.
-
It's really like this, this person is still more faithful and can hold on for so long.
-
I'm going to go now, does the landlord still want to practice? Yes, you can go together.
-
There are no ghosts in the heart, and people are the most scary when they are ghosts.
-
If you are determined to go into seclusion, you should have nothing to fear. With a peaceful heart to perceive everything around you, why be afraid?
-
If you go, you won't be afraid, because someone who lives in seclusion nearby will help you. There are very few people who can be born now, and if you really want to do it, they will help you.
-
Small hidden in the wild, big hidden in the city.
The landlord is self-obsessed.
-
It is better not to go to those who have no foundation ...

Today, Wang Zhixia has been practicing in a small temple on Zhongnan Mountain for more than 40 years, setting two records in the hermit community, which no one has broken so far.
First, among the thousands of hermits in Zhongnan Mountain, she is the female hermit who has practiced for the longest time.
Second, in order to manifest her Buddha heart, she meditated for 108 days in a row, and no hermit has been able to do it so far.
Therefore, she is revered as "the first female hermit in the world".
Although it is a temple, it is actually a house built by her own hands with yellow mud, stone and wood, and the house is divided into two, with several Buddha statues and offering tables on one side, and the place where she practices and lives on the other.
The house is not well lit, there is no electricity, so she can only light candles or kerosene lamps to illuminate it, and she can't do without them every day to chant sutras and worship the Buddha.
Around the house, she cultivated a few plots of land, planted some vegetables, and with the alms from the surrounding villagers, she was basically able to meet her daily life.
This kind of life is undoubtedly very hard, but Wang Zhixia has long been accustomed to this kind of life, and her dependence on the outside world is becoming less and less.
In addition to practicing, Wang Zhixia also studied traditional Chinese medicine, often picked some Chinese herbs for processing, and went down the mountain to give some minor illnesses to nearby villagers, which won the respect of the villagers.
In the eyes of the nearby villagers, Wang Zhixia is more like a kind and amiable grandmother, most hermits don't like to be disturbed, but she is completely different, in addition to being willing to treat the mountain people, she is also willing to share her spiritual insights with tourists.
In order to make it easier for tourists to rest, she will set up tables and stools at the door and bring out tea or boiled water for hospitality.
Whenever others asked her why she did this, she always folded her hands and said very seriously: The purpose of cultivation is first of all to purify one's soul, to be kind to others, and to be kind to oneself!
Now it seems that in these decades of practice, she has completely achieved the unity of knowledge and action.
However, there are still many people who criticize her after learning about her deeds, criticizing her for being irresponsible, which is too selfish, completely ignores the feelings of her family, and is too cruel to her family.
Life itself is a philosophy, and everyone has different ideas and realms, so there is no standard answer to life itself, and everyone has their own way of living. Judging the lives of others with your own knowledge and knowledge is meaningless.
If a person can clearly understand his own position and understand what kind of life he really needs, how can such a person not be a wise man?

The woman who lived in seclusion in Zhong Nanshan came back because she couldn't pay the rent.
I am so envious, but I can't go there by myself, and I am trapped in this responsibility and obligation. It's too painful.
Now he has starved to death, because he can't take care of himself at all, and if there is no one else to take care of him, he can only starve to death, and he can't take care of himself.

In fact, I once had such a question, there were so many fierce generals and so many talented people during the Three Kingdoms period, why was Lu Bu called the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms? Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Xiahou Yuan, etc. during the Three Kingdoms period were all fierce generals, why did this title belong to Lu Bu? In fact, Lu Bu has a record that no one can break during the Three Kingdoms period, that is, Lu Bu has never been injured in this battle in his life, so in this comparison, the title of the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms is none other than Lu Bu. >>>More
Yue Fei's first fierce general was called Gao Pet, who was infinitely powerful, but in the end, he was accidentally crushed to death by an iron block weighing more than 1,000 catties. Yue Fei is a famous general in history, and the words "loyal to the country" engraved on his back are the beliefs he has followed all his life. According to historical records, Yue Fei had twelve generals under him, but the first fierce general was infinitely powerful, and there was no record of this general in the history books, which was just a fictional historical figure. >>>More
