She was called"The most beautiful nun in China"., 18 years old was admitted to 985 schools, but becauseA dream, choose to become a nun.
Now 15 years have passed, and she is in her 30s, still staying in the mountains, refusing to return to the vulgar, is it really becauseA dreamLet her give up her good future, choose the green lantern to worship the Buddha, and spend her beautiful years in the temple
In 2008,Enrolled inShandong UniversitySophomore student Shi Zhengxiao is enjoying her comfortable college life.
Perhaps it was the boring college life that caused Shi Zhengxiao to have a strange dream recently, and each dream was surprisingly consistent, telling the same storyline.
Shi Zhengxiao dreamed that he incarnated as a little fairy child beside the Buddha, accompanying the Buddha every day, and worshipping the Buddha ...... with a green lantern
Maybe it's a psychological suggestion, or a kind of guidance in the dark, Shi Zhengxiao chose to repay his wish during his rest time, so he came with his parentsTiantai Temple, Hubei.
As everyone knows, the seemingly small act of repaying the wish actually changed Shi Zhengxiao's life.
Lake Hong'an Tiantai TempleIt is a young temple with a long history, the temple is surrounded by mountains, quiet and elegant, Shi Zhengxiao stood in front of the ancient temple, and already felt an unprecedented sense of peace and belonging.
As she stepped into the temple step by step, Shi Zhengxiao gradually fell in love with it, she stood in the middle of the temple and listened to the chirping of birds in the distance, smelling the smell of incense, which made her heart calm down all of a sudden, as if she had been reborn.
After a long time, Shi Zhengxiao proposed to his parents that he wanted to live here for a few days, and when his father heard his daughter's proposal, he was uneasy and felt that his daughter's proposal was too reckless, but his wife agreed, and he didn't say anything more.
Under the arrangement of other monks, Shi Zhengxiao lived here, this temple is located in the middle of the mountains, the surrounding is very quiet, as if it is like a paradise, Shi Zhengxiao is affected by the environment, and his heart is unprecedentedly relaxed.
Shi Zhengxiao recites with the monks here every day, recites scriptures, sits in meditation, lives in a fasting room, eats fasting meals, this ordinary life can not be in the ordinary, filling her empty heart before.
Unfortunately, this life did not last long, and soon, Shi Zhengxiao's parents went up the mountain to find her, hoping that she would go back to complete her studies.
This is a normal decision, Shi Zhengxiao is a college student, ten years of hard study in exchange for the opportunity to go to college, the future is unlimited, but now in her heart, she resolutely feels that the previous life plan is not what she hoped. To this end, Shi Zhengxiao made a decision that no one expected.
In 2009,A group of tourists came to Tiantai Temple in Hubei Province and inadvertently found a group of monks who were engaged in **, which attracted the attention of countless tourists and netizens for a while.
Many people can't help but wonder why monks don't worship the Buddha with green lanterns, why do these foreign things, is it to attract eyeballs and attract traffic?
Suddenly, countless doubts swept the entire Hubei Tiantai Temple, and it is worth saying that in countless doubts, these so-called traffic has brought good income to the temple, and it has also become a holy place for everyone to check in.
However, among the monks and performers, there was a nun with a delicate appearance and a focused performance that attracted the attention of many tourists.
This person is Shi Zhengxiao, a top student of 985 colleges, because she is too outstanding, and she is quite talented in **, and she also serves as the host of the band, leading the team to bathe in **, so that the audience is bathed in a peaceful atmosphere.
Shi Zhengxiao's performance was uploaded to the Internet by many netizens, and she also became popular in the Internet world with her beauty and talent, becoming the "most beautiful nun" in the hearts of the majority of netizens.
Shi Zhengxiao unexpectedly became popular, although it brought a lot of income to the temple, but it also pushed this nun who was still a child to the cusp.
Many people who know Shi Zhengxiao have found her family, and they all want to know why the former good student went to become a nun?
Shi Zhengxiao has been in the mouth of other parents since he was a child"Someone else's child"., not only with excellent grades, but also a very obedient child.
The good girl in the eyes of the parents, the three good students in the eyes of the teachers, the object of envy among the classmates, why did Shi Zhengxiao, who has been such a person since childhood, embark on the road of a nun.
Could it be that the reason for all this is really because of Shi Zhengxiao's dream, but not really.
The reason why Shi Zhengxiao likes to worship Buddha is because of her mother, who is a very devout Buddhist, and when she was a child, she often heard her mother say that the Buddha blesses people, and we all have to be a person of great compassion ......
Perhaps it was since he was a child who followed his mother's green lantern to worship the Buddha, Shi Zhengxiao has a different complex for "Buddhism", and these are not surprising in the eyes of Shi Zhengxiao's mother, she thinks that it is a good thing for children to be willing to quiet down and do one thing, but people with great compassion will definitely be blessed, therefore, she always instills this idea in Shi Zhengxiao.
Over time, Shi Zhengxiao, who has been exposed to it, always thinks twice before doing things, puts the interests of others in the first place in everything, never competes, and always treats everything with a heart of great love, everyone, even a small ant will not easily take a detour.
Shi Zhengxiao, who has the heart of a bodhisattva, has a deeper understanding of Buddhism after she becomes an adult, especially after going to university, she always consults various Buddhist books in the library, as well as the rise and fall of various temples, and assumes the role of inheritance.
As he learned more and more, Shi Zhengxiao's mind sprouted an idea of wanting to become a monk, perhaps thinking about it day and night, and even dreaming at night, this idea appeared in his dreams.
After that, Shi Zhengxiao came to Tiantai Temple with her parents, where she finally found the meaning of life, so when her parents persuaded her to go back to continue her studies, she resolutely chose to give up her studies and decided to become a nun.
At first, the parents did not agree with Shi Zhengxiao's idea, especially the mother, although she is also a believer in Buddhism, but believers and monks still have an essential difference, but her daughter insisted on going her own way, and finally she seemed to understand why her daughter made such a choice.
After becoming a monk, Shi Zhengxiao eats fasting and recites Buddha every day, dresses plainly, and is separated from the family, sometimes the clothes are torn and have to be patched by hand, but it is such a simple life, and this persistence is fifteen years.
During this period, Shi Zheng Xiaotong also came into contact with the first all-monk Zen music art troupe in the history of Chinese Buddhism.
* The power can cross domains, transitions, and even races, and it is precisely because of the birth of Zen music that Shaksho Xiaotong has a progressive understanding of Buddhism.
Subsequently, in presiding over temple activities, Shi Zhengxiao became popular on the Internet, although she won the attention of many people, but also caused troubles for her.
There are many netizens who can't help but question: ".Nuns and monks play together, and it seems that they are not serious. ”
There are also some netizens who directly attacked Shi Zheng Xiaotong"If you don't go to college, you have to be a nun here, it's a sin." ”
In the face of netizens' doubts, Shi Zhengxiao treats everyone equally, she always faces it with a strong heart, and repeatedly responds that becoming popular is not her original intention, but for her original intention, it has always remained the same.
Shi Zheng Xiaotong is using practical actions to prove everything he hasIn 2019,Shi Zhengxiao came with **MadagascarSpread Chinese Buddhist culture and bring Zen music to the world stage under pressure.
There are many paths in life, Shi Zhengxiao chose a path that belongs to her, although she is still not understood by the world, but for her, following her inner thoughts is the most important choice.
Maybe until now, there will still be Shi Zheng Xiaotong and his fellow brothers playing Zen music on the Internet**, but when they see that they can cleanse their hearts and help the public in need, they should be proud in their hearts.
