The following are ten representative Zen poems from China: 1. [Poem of Enlightenment](The Plum Blossom Nun sniffs the plum blossom poem): Looking for spring all day but not seeing spring, straw shoes stepping all over the clouds in Longtou. Come back with a smile and sniff the plum blossoms. Spring is already ten points on the branches. It expressed the Zen of finding oneself and finding oneself in one's heart. 2. [Untitled](Bird Nest Zen Master): When you come, there is no trace. When you go, there is no trace. When you go, you will be with the current events. Why should I ask more about life, but life is just a dream. It reflected the Zen principle that people could not get rid of confusion from birth to death. If they could not see through it, they would fall into depravity. 3. [Morning View of Flowers Blooming (Tang·Dragon Tooth)][Morning View of Flowers Blooming and Trees Full of Red, Evening View of Flowers Falling and Trees Still Empty.] If you compare flowers with human affairs, flowers and human affairs are the same. It indicated that everything in the world was impermanent. When fate gathered, it would be formed, and when fate scattered, it would be destroyed. 4. [Ode to the Way of the Common Heart (Zen Master Wumen Huikai): Spring has flowers and autumn has moons, summer has cool breeze and winter has snow.] If there was nothing to worry about, it was a good time in the world. It conveyed the Zen principle of letting nature take its course and not being artificial. 5. ** The first verse of the Twenty-Seven Gathas (Shi Shoujing)**: The water flowing down the mountain is unintentional, and the clouds returning to the cave are unintentional. If life can be like cloud water, iron trees bloom all over the world in spring. It depicted the free and easy life of a Zen monk. 6. [Only in Spring](Ming·Hanshan Deqing): Only in spring can you see the willows green, and the autumn wind can see the chrysanthemums yellow. Prosperity is always a dream in the third watch, and wealth is still like the frost in September. It meant that the cycle of life did not require one to be obsessed with wealth. 7. [Green Seedlings in Hand](Zen Master Huangbo): Put green seedlings in the field with your hands, and look down at the sky in the water. A pure heart is the way, and retreating is actually moving forward. It was a Zen principle that expressed the purity of the heart, which was the foundation of seeking Dao. Sometimes, it seemed to be retreating but was actually moving forward. 8. "Ode to the Enlightenment of the Upper Hall"(Zen Master Huangbo): The dust is too heavy, so you should do a round of rope tightly. How could the fragrance of plum blossoms reach my nose without going through the bone-chilling cold? It emphasized the Zen meaning of gaining something through tempering. 9. [Quatrain (Taoist from Caizhou): The Lanke True Spell is wonderful and divine. A game has experienced several springs.] Since coming out of the cave, there is no one who can beat me, and I will forgive others wherever I can. It reflected a kind of open-minded and tolerant Zen. 10. "Zen Yue II"(Zhang Wentao): The door is clear and wonderful, that is, Zen Pass, waste gold to buy mountains. As long as the heart is as bright as a full moon, staying at home is better than becoming a monk. It conveyed the idea that as long as one's heart was bright, one could experience Zen at home.

There were many beautiful and philosophical poems in Zen poems, and it was difficult to determine which one was the most beautiful. However, Master Huineng's Zen poem," Bodhi is not a tree, and a mirror is not a platform. There is nothing in the world, so where is the dust?" was quite classic and full of profound Zen meaning. This poem described the concept of emptiness in a concise and profound way, expressing a state of mind that was detached from the world and free from it. There was also Zen Master Wumen Huikai's poem," There are flowers in spring and moon in autumn. There is a cool breeze in summer and snow in winter. If there is nothing to worry about, it is a good time in the world. It uses the natural scenery of the four seasons to convey an open-minded and easy-going attitude towards life. It is full of poetry and Zen charm. "Let go and become a Buddha, draw your saber!" The novel is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
Zen was a cultivation method of Chinese Buddhism that pursued inner peace and transcendence. The poems describing Zen were often used to express the inner feelings and thoughts to show the realm of Zen. Here are a few poems that describe Zen: 1 "Climbing High"-Wang Zhihuan of Tang Dynasty The wind is strong, the sky is high, the apes howl, the white birds fly back to the clear sand of the mournful island. Endless trees fall and the endless Yangtze River rolls down. I'm always a guest in autumn, sad for thousands of miles. I've been sick for a hundred years, and I'm alone on the stage. I'm in trouble, bitter resentment, frosty hair, downcast hair, I've just stopped drinking. This poem showed the transcendence of Zen by climbing high and looking far away, and also expressed the poet's feelings and thoughts about life. 2. Thoughts in a Quiet Night--Li Bai of Tang Dynasty The moonlight before my bed is like frost on the ground. Looking up at the bright moon, looking down, I miss my hometown. This poem expressed the poet's yearning for and thinking about nature by describing the scene of the bright moon in front of the bed, and also reflected the realm of Zen's "nothing in the heart". 3 "River Snow"-Liu Zongyuan of Tang Dynasty Birds fly over thousands of mountains, and people disappear in ten thousand paths. An old man in a coir raincoat fishing alone in the cold river and snow. This poem described the scene of the river and snow, expressing the realm of Zen's "silence and inaction" and also expressing the poet's perception of loneliness. 4. Plum Blossom--Wang Anshi of Tang Dynasty A few plum blossoms in the corner, Ling Han alone. I know from afar that it's not snow, but a faint fragrance comes. This poem, by describing the scene of plum blossoms, expressed the realm of Zen's creation from nothingness 'and also expressed the poet's pursuit of inner peace and transcendence.
I recommend " Slow Spring Breeze ", an ancient romance novel written by Clear Maple Heartmaster. The female protagonist escaped from her hellish home. She was afraid that her adopted brother could only sleep during the day and come out at night. However, her adopted brother accompanied her and even led a super lively life. Her adopted brother faked paintings to support her family, checked love poems to earn money to buy her a drink, and chased her all the way to sublimate their relationship. The female protagonist was neither reborn nor transmigrated, and her writing was exquisite. The writing style was unique. Those who liked it would love it, but those who didn't like the quiet writing style might not be interested. The author was super cute and would seriously reply to comments. Although she was abroad, she had a good foundation in Chinese studies. It ended with about 400,000 words. It was not long, but it was very substantial. The story was compact and exquisite, with elements of suspense and reasoning. The pet novel was very good. The male and female leads were cute in love, the adopted siblings were great, and the male lead called her " little sister " very doted on. The style of writing was a little difficult to read, but it was fine as long as he got used to it. Some of the settings were obscure. Overall 4 stars, worth a look. " Soldier Assault: Who Can Contend " was not bad either. It was a military novel written by a scholar from the south lane. Li Bing was suffering from Lou Gehrig's disease and had transmigrated to the soldier assault. He had a nourishing system and joined Steel Seven Company and Old A after taking medicine and training. The writing was refined and smooth, and the plot was interesting. However, the system bug was huge, and many readers did not like the system style military literature, but this book still had potential. There was also " River Legend ", an ancient time-travel novel written by Qingqiu Danluo. The female protagonist was cold and heartless. After traveling to another world, she schemed and schemed only to live a better life for herself. After the male protagonist was gone, she did not know how to live. " sunrise Through the Clouds " was an ancient time-travel novel written by My Loving Eyes. It was about a female protagonist who came to the palace from the common people and experienced wealth. After the emperor died, the youngest son succeeded to the throne, and the female protagonist was not inferior to the man. " Qin Huamei " was an ancient novel written in search of lost love. After Hua Mei became a widow, she wanted to lead a good life with her daughter, but there were always men around her, so she had no plans to get married again. This book was an old classic, and it was on sale recently. Although Hua Mei's encounter at the beginning was terrible, he could still look forward to her happy life.

The following is a selection of the most beautiful love poems in contemporary China: 1 "To the Oak Tree"-Shu Ting If I love you Never like climbing trumpet creeper To show off on your high branches; If I love you will never imitate Spoony birds Repeating the monotonous song for the green shade; Not just like a fountain All year round brings cool comfort; Not just like a dangerous peak Increase your height and set off your dignity. Even sunlight Even the spring rain. Not like this, I love you Not because you're my lover But when you stand in front of me Only then did I discover my true self; everything you have Whether light or darkness It's all because of you Because you are my God. 2."The Phoenix with the Head of a Phoenix: The Feelings of the World"--Lu You The world's feelings are thin, human feelings are evil, the rain sends the evening flowers easy to fall. The morning breeze drips away tears, I want to write a letter, my heart is sad, I speak alone. Difficult, difficult, difficult! People become different, today is not yesterday, sick soul often like swing rope. The sound of the horn in the cold night is waning, afraid of people asking, swallowing tears pretending to be happy.

Song of Everlasting Regret-Bai Juyi The emperor of the Han Dynasty was so fond of women that he poured the whole country and the world to seek them for many years, but he could not find them. Ehuang and Yingying shed heartbroken tears, jade hairpin and rhinoceros horn wall drunk together to stay. Once spring is over, the beauty and the old flowers fall, and no one knows. Kong sighed deeply at the cold moon, thinking of the golden spears and iron horses that swallowed thousands of miles like tigers. 4 "Rainy Night Flower"-He Zhu The drizzle moistens the fragrance I wander alone on the path of incense. The wild path and the clouds are all black boats on the river, the fire alone bright. At dawn, I see the red and wet place the flowers weigh heavily on Jinguan City.

I recommend " Cultivation to Buddha ", a fantasy novel written by a lazy cat who was secretly reading. The main character was a monk, and there was no female lead. It was different from the usual Buddhist writings. It was not a commercial text, nor was it a text filled with hostility. The author's understanding of Buddha was very unique. For example, Buddha was to educate the world, calm the mind, and abandon evil for good. The main character was a saint, but he was not repulsive. He took it upon himself to sacrifice himself to save others. Although the plot might have dissuaded him, the character setting might have collapsed, and there might have been a break in the later chapters, the writing was good and the three views were correct. It was still worth reading. The Great Zen Master was not bad either. It was written by Little Buddha. Zen Master Lu Zixin was reborn in the golden age of martial arts. He used Buddhist divine powers to cultivate, but he did not become a monk. In the story, there were the supernatural powers of the Zen Sect, the hegemony of martial arts, and the company of beauties. This book had been updated steadily for nearly two months. Huang Ting Xian Dao was a Xianxia novel that was written on the mountain. It was a story about the killer's cultivation, seeking for the Dharma, and proving the Dao. There were many explanations of Buddhism and Taoism. The style was semi-classical and full of immortal flavor. Although there were shortcomings such as the text being not precise enough, the character was clearly portrayed, the cultivation system was perfect, and the female lead was a four-star recommendation. " He Comes from the Mortal World " was written by Dream in Autumn Water. The protagonist, Fo Xiu, was originally a good monk but was betrayed and turned into a bad monk. He wanted to clean up the world. The title and cover of this book were not to be underestimated. The content was very good. It had the charm of the martial arts novels of the past. It was the kind of novel that needed to be read slowly. " The First Abbot in History " was an urban novel written by Arrow in the Sleeve. The main character, Su Wen, was a modern monk. He had transmigrated to a parallel world and used the system to revitalize the Zen Sect. There was no female protagonist. The first 40 chapters were poisonous, but the later chapters were getting better. There was a lot of Buddhist knowledge in the book, and it was written with great content.

The following are some of the Seven Absolutes Zen poems: - Monk Dao Qian's " Autumn Night on the River ":" The rain is dark and the river is not clear at night. The leaves of the well are turning and the autumn sounds are moving." The wind blows in the middle of the night, and the moon is bright in the shallow clouds." This poem depicted the scene of an autumn night. It was filled with Zen. The poet wrote from the rain darkening the Cangjiang River to the leaves of the well, then to the wind stopping and the moon rising.

The hanging moon is bright and the mood is not disturbed. Zen poetry, wine, and dreams follow." This poem described the poet looking out of the window, feeling the scenery of Jiangnan, the moon hanging high in the sky purifying the soul, thus seeking inner peace in the company of Zen poetry and wine, and having a dream-like feeling in thinking about the past and reality. - Han Dahu's " Encountering the East Wind ":" The slanted sparse shadow provokes the east wind, and the green hair is half red. A thousand jade plates and an osmanthus moon, three lives, karma and six seasons."
