The face of the bodhisattva and the heart

The past year has been a year of geeky. Men who can't find a girlfriend and men who have been with their male friends all the time waiting to come out have collectively teased themselves with "Gongji". Unsurprisingly, CCTV's Spring Festival Gala changed from CCAV to CCGV, countless hints related to gang-making emerge in an endless stream, and Havin is like a god who shows his subjects that he can start gang-ganging. In fact, everyone knows that no matter how the Spring Festival Gala changes, they will not really come out in order to satisfy the Christian people. It is not so much a suggestion to the audience to engage in the oracles of the Spring Festival Gala. This is also in line with the proverb, "It is not the foundation that moves, but the heart is moved." If this statement is a little obscure, the following example may help you understand better. In the early morning of the first day of the new year, when I climbed the top of the mountain and squeezed through the crowd to catch a glimpse of the Buddha, a lay disciple before converting to the Buddha was calmly reciting the Great Compassion and sweeping the altar with his hands. Said that, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, today the face of the Bodhisattva is the most beautiful. Others commented that he turned his head and explained, "I made a small mistake a few days ago. The Bodhisattva was angry with me that day, and his face became dark ”, when he spoke, he was righteous, and completely answered the proverb, “It is not the Buddha who moves, but the heart is moved.”

In the face of the Iraq War and the "Arab Spring" that is taking place in the Middle East, some people swear that everything is a conspiracy of the US imperialists, and some people are willing to believe that this is the choice of the Arab people. However, as a person who does not care about foreign politics, Chinese people, I can't make a positive or negative evaluation of the Iraq war. I believe that more Chinese people are as ignorant as I am. But no matter what, the war that started under the banner of searching for "weapons of mass destruction" ended with "there is no evidence that there is any". On the surface, it seemed like "I killed you, sorry, I'm not going to kill you" is as unacceptable, but the inner essence is different.

Like Guo Degang said, the Titanic was a disaster for the people on board, but it was a miracle of life for the lobster in the kitchen. For Saddam and a small number of Iraqis, their territory and power were violated for unwarranted reasons, but for more Iraqi people, they seem to have gained democracy and freedom, and for the US government involved, he Like a stealth millionaire who never lets anyone know how much he's getting on each transaction. But the U.S. government is not alone. It needs to convince its citizens and soldiers to participate in this war that seems to have nothing to do with them. Therefore, there is a bold guess in "Green Zone".

An Iraqi general, Plum Blossom ACE, met with a senior U.S. staff member to discuss that the general would be given his due status after the United States took over the regime, but the senior staff member used the general’s name as a tip to tell the U.S. government informant that Iraq was hiding a large amount of money. Killer, almost all of the above are personal behaviors, which can be made up or left to the imagination of the original author of "Green Zone". However, the U.S. government believed and used this as a reason to launch a war. This is entirely because of the heart of the bodhisattva's face. It doesn't matter whether the bodhisattva's face and the party of the bodhisattva are real or not, it matters. The only thing is that my subconscious needs a symbol and reason to be upgraded to action consciousness, so the downcast face of the Bodhisattva became displeased with himself, Li Yundi became the reason for Wang Leehom's climax, and "the informant informed that there is a big killer here" became reason for the US entry into Iraq.

But in the film, Matt Damon is the only one who cares about the cause of all this. The lame Iraqi wants to kill the dictator. American soldiers must obey the orders of their superiors without asking whether they are right or wrong. General ACE was abandoned by the verbal agreement and became the target of pursuit and killing. In the whole war, there are always people who gain their own interests, there are always people who die, there are always people who fulfill their wishes by accident, and there are always secrets buried in the ground with the corpses forever.

It is not a bad thing to give a reason to make one's psychological desires a reality. Perhaps the fickle face of the Bodhisattva can finally make an evil heart take refuge and calm down; Wang Leehom's tongue kissing photos are exposed, we still need to face the non-stop work next week; but when this psychological desire becomes a reality and will affect more people's lives and even lives, we should ask whether the environment is really moving, Or is it just our hearts that move.
