Weeping for Shakyamuni
When I was in elementary school, the lower grades opened three courses of Chinese, arithmetic, and general knowledge, and the upper grades cancelled the general knowledge classes and added three courses of history, geography, and nature, which was actually an extension of the general knowledge class. I almost forgot what I had learned in all these classes, but only two lessons remained deep in my memory, and they were all related to death.
The general knowledge class seems to be taught by different teachers according to the content, and the teacher of physiological hygiene is a female teacher who has a little age, looks and speaks more vulgarly, and always talks about something that really belongs to the common sense of the people in the class. For example, she once told us that the best way to prevent a cold is to regularly dip your head in cold water, which sounded completely amazing to me at the time. What impressed me, though, wasn't this kind of stuff, and it had nothing to do with her teaching.
In one class, she hung a diagram of human anatomy on a blackboard, and I don't remember what she explained, but I distinctly remember the shock it caused me. From this picture, I seem to have discovered that the reason why people will eventually die is that the body is full of these disgusting and ugly internal organs. I said to myself: There must be no such mess in my body, but a bright light, so I will not die. This shows that by then I had realized that I would also die and suffered for it, so I had to find reasons to resist.
Another lesson that I will never forget was a history lesson in which a male teacher told us about the life of Shakyamuni, the founder of Buddhism. As I listened, a vivid picture appeared in front of me. Somehow, in my imagination, the Buddha was a boy of my age who was as troubled as I was over the problem of death. I saw him run away from home with this distress in search of a paradise that would free people from death. I also saw him lying on the grass meditating, and finally he realized that he had resolutely abandoned all the joys of the world. After this lesson, the same scene kept repeating in my mind, and I felt like a boy like Shakyamuni, and I had unparalleled sympathy and understanding for him, and I deeply regretted not being able to be his contemporaries and acquaintances. In this reverie, I find myself in tears.
Now it seems that thinking about death has planted seeds in my childhood. There's nothing special about this, and I often observe that four- and five-year-olds show confusion, fear, and concern for death. No matter how carefully the adults avoid it, it is impossible to hide this matter from the child for a long time, and the child can always understand the terrible nature of this matter from the increasing amount of information, from the daily language, and even from the attitude of the adults. He may not say it, but the earthquake of the mind is still creeping beneath the surface. That's exactly what happened to me back then.
When my daughter was four years old, she often asked questions like where she was before she was born, what would become of her when she died, why time would pass, and repeatedly said she didn't want to grow up. In the face of such problems, the usual practice of adults is to ignore them, second, to block back, to tell children not to think blindly, and third, to give a simple answer, the answer must be a lie. In my opinion, all three are the worst.
My approach is to encourage the child, praise her for asking such a great question, even the father can not answer, the father should think about it. Actually, I'm telling the truth, because the question is really great, and I really can't answer it. Of course, you may wish to discuss with her and come up with some possible answers, but be sure not to draw conclusions. There is no need to worry that the child will be trapped in some kind of painful thought, no, the child is a child after all, the vigorous growth of life makes them never think about it, their excitement is easy to transfer, life is still full of fun. This is exactly what my daughter is doing now, and I must have been like that myself back then. Allowing children to maintain a courageous and open mind to life's most important and confusing problems from an early age is certainly beneficial and harmless, and helps to grow a fundamental honesty in their souls.

Today's good book recommendation
"Casual Love"
Today, I would like to recommend to you a copy of the most important work of Li Yu, a great talent of the Qing Dynasty- "Idle Love And Occasional Mail"
The book has been hailed as a "guide to the art of Chinese living".
It encompasses every aspect of our lives and teaches us how to live a dull life with fun and taste. How to make your life more fulfilling.
His requirements for life are very high, but this requirement is not based on material, but on culture, cultivation, and taste.
For example, in terms of diet, he said that "meat is not as good as meat, and meat is not as good as vegetables." This is the exact opposite of how many of us are fed for the sake of appetite. He talks about diet in the way of nature, and his heavy vegetable food, reverence for frugality, shangzhen taste, the lord is light, avoid greasy, and the proposition of cleanliness and beauty has also become an important part of Chinese health culture.
In fact, Li Yu's life is very busy, and he is not rich. He spent most of his life writing scripts, leading drama teams, and supporting his family, but he was always able to live a simple and exquisite life.
After reading this book, you will know that there is no boring life in this world, only boring people.
Even in the most prosaic life, we have ways to have fun.
