About This Novel
This book is a collection of essays by philosopher and prose writer Zhou Guoping. The book is divided into nine volumes, in addition to exploring classic life issues such as self and value, desire and detachment, love and loneliness, suffering and happiness. In "Three Notes of Pain" and "Examination of Life", he uses delicate and moving writing to describe the will of life of friends such as Shi Tiesheng, Deng Zhenglai, Yu Juan and others who are not bound by the world and the body, which is touching and touching. Zhou Guoping used a caring yet detached eye, and in the process of observing others and himself, he wrote down his awareness of human nature and life with honest writing. It tells us that only by returning to inner peace can people live out the high quality and true realm of life.

Zhou Guoping's every article is filled with indifference, as if it flows naturally from his heart. His articles focus more on himself rather than on family and country affairs. It seems that he has always stayed in the realm of "cultivation" of "cultivating one's self, managing one's family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world." This seems not great enough. To use a cliché, it means "lack of social responsibility."
The composition of life is time, and the silent time brings life and takes away life. Every day of life has its inherent beauty. But we are living in a worldly way, and the formulaic food, clothing, housing and transportation produce endless numbness. Who can say that this kind of numbness is not a disregard for life.
In fact, even if we have no power in life, even if we have no money, even if we do not have a rich material life, we can still explore, search and discover happiness in life, and in this way we will have many different kinds of happiness.
