Light wishes people a long time

Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-01-29

The word "light" is very interesting, with three points of water on the left and two "fire" on the right. What is "light"?Boil water over fire.

The taste of the world is so complicated, sweet and sour, bitter, spicy, salty, astringent, ......After baptism on the tip of the tongue, the most durable taste is still light.

There is such a story in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

One day, Emperor Han Xian ordered Dong Zhao to enter Cao Ying, and announced that Cao Cao entered the palace to discuss matters. Cao Cao heard that someone from the imperial court was coming, so he hurriedly came out to meet him. I saw that the man had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and he was full of energy. Cao Cao secretly thought: Now that there is a great famine in the eastern capital, the bureaucrats, the army and the people are hungry, and even the face is yellow and thin, why does this person have a white face and a red face and a strong physique?So he asked Dong Zhao: "You have such a good complexion, how do you regulate your health?"”

Cao Cao has always studied the method of health preservation, and he was quite puzzled to see Dong Zhao "plump and fat" in the troubled times. At this time, Dong Zhao's answer made Cao Cao suddenly realize. Dong Zhao said: "There is no other way, only to eat lightly for 30 years." ”

Meaning, I didn't have any other good way but to stick to eating only light food for 30 years.

Thirty years of light food, what a determination this has to be. In fact, at the moment of abundant materials, light food should be paid more attention.

The Tao Te Ching says: "The five colors make people blind;."The pentatonic tone is deafening;The five flavors are refreshing. "The colors are too brilliant to see things as they really are;It's too noisy to hear the real soundThe taste is too strong, but it spoils people's appetite. The sages warned us to control our desires and not to indulge in anything, otherwise happiness will lead to sorrow.

Light is the normal state of life. Although we can't insist on eating lightly for 30 years like Dong Zhao, we can often reflect on ourselves: whether this meal is complicated, whether this matter is too much to worry about, and whether we are living a "bloated" life in this life?

Life should be more indifferent. The desire is lighter, and the "light" wishes people for a long time. (Originally published in "Party Member Digest" Issue 18, 2023).
