In my opinion, superstition is a tool that distorts the true meaning of different religious beliefs of various ethnic groups to deceive people and bring hope in their miserable lives. There is no good or bad tool in and of itself, it's who is using it and what motivates and how it is used. There are too many uncertain factors in the real world that determine the direction of a person's destiny. When a person is confused by the complex world and is at a loss in life, superstition solves part of the problem in a timely manner, to be precise, it should be part of the person's psychology. on the problem.
In fact, there is only one way to solve the problem. That is to try to grasp the uncertain factors as much as possible by learning the nature and laws of the world, so that the development of things will finally go into your expected track.
China's most famous old angry young Luo Yonghao once shook such a joke in the classroom of New Oriental. The general idea is that he also believed in superstitions since he was a child, but the fact that he had not even seen a ghost after living for more than 20 years made him doubt it. He thought for a long time with his so-called independent thinking ability, and finally stood firmly on the side of materialism. In the following years, whenever he entered the temple, he would stand in front of the Buddha statue and shout in his heart, "There is a kind of one-on-one challenge." Whenever there was thunder and rain, he would take the initiative to stick his head out of the window, and then go crazy to the sky. Calling "some kind of chopped up Lao Tzu". Later, he miraculously discovered that he was not condemned by God for these blasphemous behaviors, but instead became more comfortable as the days passed.
Of course, this is just a joke that this pseudo-hooligan used to amuse stupid students, but to me, this joke sounds really enjoyable.
Going home this winter for the Chinese New Year, we organized a cycling tour. After riding to Qinglong Bay, we went to Huiyun Temple for a stroll. The little chubby classmate was quite upset after admonishing me to worship the Buddha devoutly and failed, and said angrily that you dare to use the results of your postgraduate entrance examination to bet on the Buddha's failure. I suddenly felt a little guilty, after all, this result is still very important to me. So I said that even if there was a Buddha, he would not be as petty as you, and would not punish me for not worshipping him. The chubby classmate laughed a few times, and stopped making a sound as a winner.
Then the result was tragic.
But I still insist that the result of this tragedy is that I don't work hard enough, and it has nothing to do with those so-called gods and monsters.
But I always have a reverence for luck. You said the two ticket windows had the same number of people in line, why the team I chose was so much slower than the other team every time.
We live in an era of riotous demons. In such an era, to survive and live well, luck is very important. So people around are saying to do more good things, so that you can save some RP, and luck will be better. But I found that luck has absolutely nothing to do with good deeds. God doesn't let you do a lot of good things because you do a lot of good things.
Shi Kang said, look at the old peasant in the ravine, maybe he has never done a single bad thing in his life, and his morality is extremely high, but no one wants to read the story written according to his prototype, because it is too ordinary and there is no one to read it. On the contrary, the stories of murder, arson, rape, and looting have been enduring.
Shi Kang also said, if I drive a Jetta and take a little girl out to play, at night, I begged for a long time and not necessarily stay for the night, but if I drive a Mercedes and go to my mansion in Beijing at night, the little girl will immediately. Tenderly and infinitely told me that she was not leaving tonight. That's the power of money.
So now Shi Kang's goal is to be a very rich and rich writer.
When you have been following the moral principles of this society, being a careful person, and doing things honestly, all of your former friends are relying on their shrewd minds, stepping on the shoulders of others, and enjoying the beauty, money, and power. Great satisfaction, when the hall is full of blessings, can you still be as calm as a chrysanthemum?
I didn't understand this movie at first, but I realized the director's intention with the help of analysis. The picture is very delicate, and the characters of each character are also portrayed quite brilliantly.
There are three amazing scenes: one is when Larry is fixing cable TV for his son, he catches a glimpse of Mrs Samsky sunbathing naked on the front in the next yard; the other is when Larry sends his brother Arthur away to start a new life in a dream, Arthur is in the boat Headshot; the last one is at the end of the film, where Larry's son looks at the oncoming tornado, speechless.
However, I always feel that the essence of this film is somewhat similar to the propaganda slogan of our feudal rulers: exchange the suffering of this life for the happiness of the next life. Everyone should live honestly and be a serious man.
