find herself alone? "Kung Fu Panda 2" answered this question. A Bao's life experience was the biggest selling point of this episode before it was released. In fact, the film not only solved the mystery of A Bao's life experience, but also revealed the mystery of finding himself, which is more important than life experience: everything depends on how you are To face, how to choose.
This theme gives Kung Fu Panda 2 a touch of Zen in its humorous and witty story. It's not that Abao has no memory of his childhood. Lord Shen's slaughter made him reluctantly abandoned by his parents. The painful moment built a door in Abao's memory, closing his path to find himself. Po is not willing to face the pain of the past, he would rather choose to forget and escape, because he is afraid, he is afraid to know that his parents abandoned him because they didn't love him. Fear almost killed him in front of his enemy Shen Wangye.
However, from the very beginning of the story, the mystery of life is revealed: calm. In the first episode, Master Turtle's open-minded and calm temperament is a bright spot. In popular words, the aura is extremely powerful. This aura is not based on the huge figure or unparalleled martial arts, but it is the "slow" unique to the tortoise, why, because he is fearless. In the first episode, Master Raccoon, who was remorseful for his mistakes, finally began to practice the mind-cultivation skills taught by Master Turtle in the second episode, and gave him this mystery before Po went out of the city to deal with Lord Shen. The process of defeating Lord Shen is the process of A Bao finding himself and learning to be calm.
Why do you need peace to find yourself? I think it's because everyone has "inner demons". Depression, fear, anxiety, hatred, greed, pain... are all demons. Inner demons prevent us from seeing ourselves clearly and drive us to twist ourselves. It is often seen in TV or movies that a great villain is not a villain in the beginning, and when his evil deeds explode, there will always be relatives and friends around him who say something like this: "How did you become like this?" "You seem to be A different person." "I don't seem to know you anymore." At this time, the person became a demon. Lord Shen is a devil. He turned beauty into sin, love as hatred, and conquest as glory, but unfortunately he was obsessed with it when he was about to die, and finally died in his own hands.
Bao almost died several times, also because he couldn't open his heart. Finally, with the help of Xiangu Yang, he let go of his burdens, faced the past that he didn't want to recall, remembered his own life experience, and resolved the knot in his heart. At this time, he learned how to be calm. It was this calmness that made him have no hatred in the face of Lord Shen, and used "calmness" to defeat the rapid and lethal cannonballs - no matter how fast and violent the obstacles and blows came , Difficulties, don't they often need to be solved with a calm heart?
The black and white of the panda is repeatedly associated with Tai Chi in the film. I don't understand Zhouyi or gossip, but I think Tai Chi is indeed a symbol that clarifies everything in the world. An endless circle, constantly bred black and white, and nothing. When we say whether extreme happiness comes, or happiness leads to sadness, it is all in this circle. This circle is also like a pool of calm water, whether it is peaceful, happy or sad, in the end, there is only a return to calm.
Po's life did not have a happy beginning, he had suffered endlessly for it. But that doesn't mean he's been a wretched, parentless bastard all his life. After reviewing his life with a calm heart, he found that his past sorrows were nothing but clouds. He had a goose father who loved him (I always thought it was a duck), and he went through hardships to become a dream dragon hero. There is a master and there are five heroes. Choose to be a poor creature living in the shadows of the past, or choose to be a happy panda. Calm gave him the courage and strength to cheer up and choose, and he chose the latter - a self he could be.
Po can, so can we.
