1. The grandmother in the family of thieves (Wan Yin き family, 2018) received the living expenses from the children born of her ex-husband's affair, but never spent the money, because the money was received not out of necessity, but out of necessity. In the Winter Awakening (Kış Uykusu, 2014), the landlady gave a subsidy to the poor tenant, and the tenant accepted it after counting the affection in it, and then threw it into the fire. Similarly, the money was accepted out of necessity, and Unnecessary - accepting money does not mean the low status of the recipient. From this scene, we can see the transformation of the status of the characters in the story. What's more, people often lose their subjectivity or rational judgment because of the kindness of others, so thanking others for their kindness or kindness often becomes an opportunity for sly people. The Eleventh Party of the Analects of Confucius: Kang Tzu offered the medicine, bowed and accepted it, saying, "Qiu has not yet arrived, so I dare not taste it."

2. In the human world of Zhuangzi, such a story was told. Yan Yuan asked Ying to save the country. Confucius said: "And those who use benevolence, righteousness, rope and ink to harass the former are because they are evil and have their beauty, and they are called scorpions. Those who slander others, people will turn against them.” That is to say, if you reluctantly use benevolence and righteousness to persuade the other party, the other party will only think that this is just showing off, and then it will bring disaster to himself. Its beauty is also", that is, people hate your goodness, hate your superiority, hate you standing on the highest point and look down, because your existence is equivalent to slapping them in the face. Confucius later went further and said that the real reason why Yan Yuan "strongly used benevolence, righteousness, rope and ink to overthrow others" was that he had distracted thoughts and wanted a good reputation, so Confucius asked Yan Yuan to clear "I" and carry out "I". Heart fast". The bourgeois or defenders in the movie give people such an impression—they are educated, follow the etiquette, and be charitable. "Everyone in the world knows that what is beautiful is beautiful, but it is evil; everyone knows that what is good is good, and it is not good."

3. The awakening process of a person is sometimes not the result of an epiphany or a Buddha. Even an awakened person like Yan Yuan, who does not express his anger and does not go overboard, just maintains that "three months does not violate benevolence", let alone ordinary people? Therefore, there is no need to use harsh language such as "hypocrisy" to criticize and criticize the bourgeoisie in the story. They have the height they want to achieve in terms of religion, culture, morality or life. Ideally, there are also shortcomings and shortcomings that have not yet been achieved, because they are just like the people in the lower classes in the story, and at the same time, "being a human" is a life-long learning. When the protagonist of the story emerges from the ivory tower, walks down from the sky to the earth, steps from the clouds to the earth, and gradually has a true and deep sympathy for life, our commentators should also treat such awakened people with the same feelings, for the sake of The applause.

Winter Sleep quotes

  • Aydin: Justice doesn't even exist in nature, why should it exist here?

  • Aydin: [Epilogue] Nihal, I didn't go away. I couldn't. Whether it's because I've grown old, or I've gone mad, or because I've become a different man, think what you like. I just don't know. But this new man inside me for a few days won't let me go away. Please, don't ask me to go either. I now understand nothing is calling me to Istanbul. Everything is alien to me there as it is everywhere else. I want you to know that I have no one but you. And I miss you every minute, every second that goes by. But my pride will never let me tell you this. I know very well how to terrible or impossible it would be to part from you. Just as I know that you do not love me anymore. I know we can't go back to the old days. And there is no need to. Take me with you like a servant, like a slave. And let us continue our life even if we do it your way. Forgive me.
