Reader comments
It is said that it is impossible for people to be perfect, but Li Shutong is called a perfect person. His character, his talent, and his arrogance all make people think that he is an extraordinary person. Such a person writes very elegant poems and very correct articles. He is also very proficient in calligraphy, painting and seal cutting. He can also arrange music and act. It can be said that he is good at everything. In China, such people are very rare. But such a genius suddenly entered Buddhism in middle age and never heard anything about the world.
Born into a wealthy family, he was familiar with Chinese classical literature, traveled to Japan to study, and later converted to Buddhism. Such wonderful experiences created his extraordinary thoughts. He is committed to the establishment and promotion of Buddhist education and is widely respected for his outstanding Buddhist attainments, compassionate heart and social influence. His contribution to the Buddhist community is not only reflected in education and reform, but also in his care and participation in society. He made important contributions to the revival and development of Buddhism in China by advocating the practice and modernization of Buddhism and paying attention to social issues.
The first half of the book tells the story of Li Shutong's wonderful life in an autobiographical style. As a person who has made great achievements in literature and art, the most talked about thing is that Li Shutong finally chose to convert to Buddhism. The first half tells a series of his inner thoughts and life experiences from his choice to convert to Buddhism to his enlightenment from Buddhism. It involves a lot of wisdom and teachings on how to deal with people, and Li Shutong's own cultural background also allows him to tell his own stories so beautifully that people can't help but be immersed in them and think deeply. The second half also focuses on the works he published in drawings. The overall integration highlights practicality, and the style is universal and rigorous.
This book gave me a more comprehensive understanding of Li Shutong. His talents and experiences are so rich! In particular, I admire his concern for the fate of the country and the suffering of the people. I am about to get married and will face many changes in my identity. I hope that I can be like him and maintain my original intention no matter what stage I am in, and be a responsible and responsible person. This book is well worth reading!
