如果有時光機,我腦袋的記憶就是一部時光機。節日熱閙過後,獨坐夜思,神遊歷史。
到巴黎,永遠是半醉狀態,不勝酒力,但偏偏每一餐都要喝酒,連甜品都用酒做,
微醺之下,寒風冷冽,獨個兒漫步到羅浮宮,第一次到羅浮宮,甫一步入花園,眼下一坐法國古典主義的磐石,氣勢磅礴,偉大的建築,但那是一種專制的壓逼。
一個醉了的人,情感凌駕理性,那份巨大的感覺,居然令我哭了出來,腦海裡泛起羅文高亢的歌聲唱着《長城謠》。
凱旋門、香榭麗舍,拿破崙十萬雄師,豈及紫禁城前,陳兵百萬?秦疆萬里,長城連横,又是那樣的光景?
在八達嶺上,二月時份,蔚藍的天空,晴朗的天氣,爬到最高一處,寒風撲面,是烈風般的風,簡直不能抵受,不消一會,要躲入城内,那一刻,思想跑到千百年前,
感受城上看守着中原大地的兵士。天朗氣清,我不能站城上一刻,如果冰天雪地,離鄕别井,士兵站在城樓之上,此生可能無法回去再見家鄕,再見挚愛的人,那是怎樣的心情、怎樣的感覺?人,多麽渺小,真的要謙虚一些。
舊日城上個個好漢,當中幾多我姓.......
禪宗有云: 「萬古長空」與「一朝風月」。
ReplyDelete前者是無形的精神世界,稱之為〝空〞。後者是有形的物質塵世,稱之為〝有〞
宋朝的善能禪師對此的註解:
「不可以一朝風月,昧卻萬古長空;不可以萬古長空,不明一朝風月。且道如何一朝風月?人皆畏炎熱,我愛夏日長。
薰風自南來,殿閣生微涼,會與不會,切忌承當。」
在無始無終時間裏, 物質的存在卑如微塵。人如能在塵世中體悟出「空」與「有」這本體世界、「昧」與「明」之間的境界, 那就是智慧的人生。
的確,大智慧,是清楚森羅萬像只是表面,還有本體在其後。本體可以是佛學裡的法身。説法身,李天命的牌局喻講得最澄明。可能佛法講邏輯,李先生思路清晰,講得清楚,一講便明。
DeleteWe always imagine ourselves to be rational. That has been the illusion of the Western man since Plato. His master knew better. It took the West 19th centuries before they woke up from that self-inflicted slumber. Nietzsche woke him and Freud tried valiantly to control him after he learned he couldn't!
ReplyDeleteInterestingly human is perhaps the only species known to us that possesses rationality and also the only one that often goes against it. All other animals act according to instinct. Human, however, can act in a way that is unexplainable solely by rationality or the lack of it, that is, apparently for no "reasons" at all. How and when this happens is, to me, a mystery. For this "reason", human is complicated and human society is even more so. Any attempts to fit us into simplistic models are bound to fail, though "experts" seem to be enthusiastic about churning out new ones when the old models fail.
Delete新年快樂﹗祝二O一四年一切順意。
ReplyDelete也曾在清晨六時登上慕田峪長城,只有我和朋友,大家閉上眼感受歷史長河的萬民血汗,千秋功過,塞外閉內的分隔著,數千年後關外汝真族入主中原,二百年後,愛新覺羅敗走東北、鴉片戰爭、軍閥、革命、共產黨、抗日,the rest is history。
如果石頭能發聲,會說甚麼呢﹖
經歷了千秋盛衰,石頭縱能發聲,也定當無言。
Delete如果記憶是部時光機,怎麼我的會褪色啊?
ReplyDelete也許妳的没有褪色,只是過去的顏色本身就是淡然而已。在時光機内多留一會,定必能返回妳要去的過去,而且淡麗色彩的往事,記憶更美麗。
