I've been to Kyoto, and I've seen Kinkakuji Temple, which is indeed a very dazzling building, so I was intrigued when I saw Yukio Mishima's "Kinkakuji Temple", but after reading it, I realized that where he was writing about architecture, he was actually writing about people and human nature.
The protagonist appears as a middle school student who stays at his uncle's house for school, and at that time he has a kind of pilgrimage to the Golden Pavilion, hoping to one day see the holy place described by his father.
When he really got his father to take him to the Golden Pavilion, the feeling of this building for the protagonist is actually not as good as he expected.,This is what we usually call the higher the expectation,The greater the disappointment.。
I remember when I was a child, I learned an article called "Pony Crossing the River", the squirrel and the old cow both said that they knew the depth of the river, but when the pony walked across the river, the real feeling was that it was neither as shallow as the old cow said, nor as deep as the squirrel said, which is the truth for the pony.
The facts that others say, even if they are true, are the truth in other people's mouths, and what the reality is still needs to be felt by everyone with different cognitive levels.
The process of the protagonist's feelings about everything is also the process of his perception of the world. On the day the country was defeated and surrendered, the teacher gave them a lesson called "Nanquan Cutting Cats".
Nanquan said: The Tao has to save the cat, and the Tao must not kill the cat. The monks of the east and west halls all fought for cats, and the ways were different, so the cats were killed. But when Zhao Zhou came back and heard this, he directly buttoned his shoes on his head and left, Nanquan instantly understood that he would live in cats.
Killing cats can quickly solve the immediate problem, simple and rough effect is obvious, the value of keeping cats is also worth referencing, it can make people learn to empathize, learn to empathize, learn to love and share, but this is not a few words, it takes time to slowly understand.
Cats are the source of evil, but cats are not the source of evil. How to deal with cats depends on which position people stand on for self-interest, altruism, and others, and the results of dealing with problems from different positions are naturally different.
The formation of a person's values is obtained in some daily small things, such as the words and deeds of his father, his mother, his teacher, and his friends.
A person has two villains, good and evil, living in the same body, and the appearance he wants to show to outsiders is not consistent with the true appearance of his heart.
Just like this building, it has a sunny side, a splendid style, and it is also a part that the sun can't reach, cold and dark. The building itself is the transmission of people's ideas, so whether it is truly beautiful or not lies not in the surface, but in who it serves.
There are many editions of Yukio Mishima's "Kinkakuji", and the Houlang Illustrated Collector's Edition has won my heart both in terms of font and book binding, and I highly recommend this edition if you want to read or collect.
