Li Shutong: How Should a Name Be, How Should Love Be, How Should Life Be?

It made me burst into tears. In the past, I had only heard the name of Master Hongyi, and I only knew that he was a eminent monk and a great virtue. I did not know much about his past and subsequent process of spreading Dharma and benefiting living beings. Very impressed! I have always wanted to become a monk, but I wonder if I can have such merit? But it's okay to do something good for others. People must do something meaningful in this life to make this life worthwhile. Follow the example of Master Hongyi and do your best!

I cried several times. Although it was a bit difficult to read the beginning because I didn't understand the meaning, I was still moved. Mortals may enter Buddhism to seek liberation, but Hong Gong really wants to break through the world of mortals. It will be quite moving for a person who has made great achievements in various fields to enter Buddhism. People should practice wisdom diligently. The foundation of wisdom is one called precepts and the other called concentration. The practice of ordinary people is to be content with the present and live a good life.

Half the world is prosperous, half the world is a monk! In the first half of his life, he was Li Shutong, and in the second half, he was Master Hongyi. As Li Shutong, he was a great talent in the Republic of China. He was a great master in poetry, painting, music, and seal carving. He was also proficient in Japanese, English, and Italian. As Master Hongyi, he always traveled around in order to spread the Dharma and benefit people, and eventually became a highly virtuous monk - the eleventh generation ancestor of the Luzong. Although Master Hongyi has passed away, his spirit will be passed down through the ages! After reading the life of Master Hongyi, I have become more convinced that my purpose in this life is to practice cultivation. We all come from the Tao, and we will eventually return to the Tao. Our only purpose in coming to this world is to practice, so that when we leave, our soul level will be a little higher than when we came!

Book reviews are hard to read, but they are human beings after all, and I admire them from the bottom of my heart! You can't be a very human-like person, you have to be at least a little like a human being!

Li Shutong, Master Hongyi, worked brilliantly at every stage of his life and is admired by future generations!

Master Hongyi was extremely talented throughout his life, brave and diligent, deeply affectionate in the mortal world, and strict in the monastic world. He was truly a person of the most affectionate nature. We all admire him so much, but we can only bow our heads and reflect on him, and yearn for him in our hearts! Reading the author's book is like facing a mage, your heart is filled with tears and your eyes are filled with tears that will never be forgotten!

I had learned about the deeds of Master Li Shutong and Master Hong Yi intermittently from Mr. Feng Zikai's book. Through reading this book, I learned about the master's ideological cultivation, personality charm, and patriotism in troubled times. The master's culture is amazing and he is a role model for us modern people!

After the shock, I was still extremely shocked. The incredible people and things will have a great impact on the rest of my life!

A good book, written sincerely and naturally. The Master's voice and smile are vivid on the page, as if he had accompanied the Master for a spiritual practice.

After reading this book, in addition to admiring the great man, I also feel sorry for the great man's early death. A person who is proficient in poetry, painting, and seal cutting can also become a monk and practice spiritual practice, but why should he be harsh on himself in terms of diet? You can be a vegetarian, but why do you eat so little every day? I think this is a major reason why his body is not in good health. Doesn't the longevity of a great man contribute more to the vicissitudes of life?

Talented and thoughtful. A rare person in the world.

Like! Like it very much! I love how smart and wise he is! Love his versatility! I like his noble character! Love him to the core! But I don't like that he finally escaped into Buddhism! He can make greater contributions to mankind and society! Of course, this is also due to his personality.

Li Shutong and Master Hongyi, with two identities, transformed one life into two lives, and they both lived to the extreme, making people envious and admired! His last words were mixed with sadness and joy, and he made a wild guess. The sad thing is that the fate of the country is uncertain, the people are suffering, and they realize that what they can do is limited. Sadly, I feel ashamed of my mother, wife, children, and old friends. The sad thing is that in the second half of his life, although he preached the Dharma and benefited living beings and was busy running around, he was ultimately entangled in fame and fortune, which delayed his practice and repented of himself. Fortunately, I have successors to my artistic career, calligraphy, painting, music, etc. In the first half of my life, and I am even more gratified that I am even better than my predecessor. Fortunately, the mission of spreading Dharma in the second half of his life, despite many twists and turns, was finally completed successfully. The life of Master Hongyi is a wonderful life, a life of art, a life of fraternity and a life of compassion.

Very well written! The information is informative, the writing is beautiful, the emotions are sincere, and the biography is clear!

I burst into tears after reading it! This is the first time to get to know the legendary Master Hongyi so closely!

I read it all in one go, even cooking, so I just have to focus on it. But I was shocked by the Master's spirit, courage and courage! I think that even though I am a man, I should follow the example of the Master and move forward bravely without fear of being fettered by the world! !

Cause and effect, marriage is not a lie, who has ever believed that you can't help yourself? Half sad, half happy, half ups and downs, all the prosperity comes to an end and finally becomes empty.

The reason why I want to understand the master Li Shutong is because of a song "Farewell", which has been sung for decades, but it has endured for a long time. Every time it is sung, there is a touch of sadness. After getting to know the master deeply, I have to admire him. Before he became a monk, he was a disseminator of culture. He was a good teacher, a good son, and a good husband. Everyone who dealt with him was lucky. After becoming a monk, he studied Buddhism diligently and made great contributions. The chapter about the master becoming a monk almost made me cry to death.

I finished reading this book in two days. Although I couldn't understand many beautiful poems, it did not affect my inner shock at all. I am proud that there is such a great man in Chinese history. It also made me more interested in Buddhism

Master Hongyi's spirit will remain forever, I worship you!

In the past, I only knew that Li Shutong was the lyricist of the song "Farewell", and that he was talented and charming, but I didn't know that he had made so many contributions to the spread of Buddhism! [Like][Like][Like]

A master's life is endless, his pursuit is endless, and he must strive to reach the extreme. When the contradiction between spirit and body, reality and ideal cannot be relieved, the master resolutely abandons everything in the world of mortals, which is something only a few people can do. [Like][Like]

Although the protagonist in the book has passed away many years ago, the author put a lot of effort into reading the information about the protagonist in the book. As a rich second generation at that time, Shutong was able to achieve perfection in both sex and love. At the peak of his career, he abandoned his wife and children and chose to become a monk, which is very hard to let go of! It is a bit cruel for a woman from a foreign country to follow him all the way. Life is like the sun on the west mountain, and wealth is like frost on the grass! A person with great enlightenment

Before I finished reading, I felt like I was stuck in my throat. I saw a young man who was just beginning to show his passion, a high-spirited and passionate man, and a monk who was self-disciplined and dedicated to studying Buddhism. But I just feel a little melancholy and I can't help but want to cry. Is life so unsatisfactory? Why should I cry? I don't know what it is that I get recognition for doing what I want to do, educate me, and educate me, but I can take care of students, be kind to everything around me, and I can look at myself inwardly. After reading it, it was a mixture of sadness and joy. It said that he had done what he wanted to do in his life, so he was happy for himself, and he had done things that were sorry to others, so he was sad. He couldn't accompany Xuezi all his life, and he couldn't do or say anything to her. He could only use the blessings of Buddhism to protect her from pain, sorrow, illness, and disaster in this life. So she and their daughter lived to be a hundred years old. This is my guess. But is this what Xuezi wants, so everything is not perfect, and if you do what you want to do, there will be people you can feel sorry for. Do we feel guilty in this life, do we have regrets, and are we willing to repay! Write whatever comes to mind, read it n times, and talk about it again

Master Hongyi was full of talents throughout his life, which made people deeply moved.

Mr. Li's legend is really rich. A person can go from being rich to being simple, from being sentimental to being refined. He is deeply attached to his family and country, and is serious and careful. His tough and decisive character is admirable. He loves people without being flashy, respects things without being impatient, is loyal without being crazy about love, and is willing to give up money. Reading this book can be said to make people's blood boil. The tragic plot is heartfelt and heart-wrenching. I am grateful to Mr. Li and the author for his thoughtful work.

It can be read as a biography of a celebrity, or it can be understood as a book about life experiences. Worth reading again.

I yearn for him, admire him endlessly, and admire him, he is a role model in life!

In troubled times, the first part of an immortal life is eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind, and the second part is colorless, sound, fragrance, touch and Dharma. In the blink of an eye, all promising Dharma are like a dream...

When I taught the graduating class children to sing the master's "Farewell", no one could understand the melancholy in my heart. Although I am still immersed in a sad atmosphere when I read this book now, as it says in the book: There are so many unspeakable things in the world, but one sentence of Amitabha can make a big boat! Realize!
