Synopsis

"Being an Idle Person: Su Dongpo's Healingism" is the famous cultural scholar Professor Fei Yong's interpretation of Su Dongpo's works from a modern perspective. Su Dongpo is a shining star in the history of Chinese culture. However, his life was full of ups and downs, and he was in a difficult situation, but he never changed his optimistic nature. Although Su Dongpo is in a different era and has a different identity than us, he has to face the troubles of ordinary people, the uncertainty of life and the uncertainty of fate like us. He has also been in pain, confusion, and even despair, but in the end he used an unworldly "idle mind" to guard the space in his heart, resolve all the hardships, and live a happy and transparent life. This book uses Su Dongpo's life experience as its thread and poems and articles as its weft, outlining Su Dongpo's rich and bumpy life, and uniquely puts forward the life philosophy of "being an idler", allowing readers to follow Su Dongpo in the happy bag of "a harp, a pot of wine, and a stream of clouds", feel the optimistic and open-minded spirit, understand the wisdom of life, and get spiritual healing.

Reader comments

The author tells the life of Su Dongpo in an easy-to-understand way. I particularly like this sentence in the book: "The bamboo stick and mango shoes are lighter than the horse." It makes me feel Su Dongpo's chic and open-mindedness. Moreover, the writing style of this book is also very good, simple and smooth, just like chatting with a friend, making people feel very friendly. I think this is a book worth reading. It will make you think and understand more about life.

This book is super beautiful and really a healing book. Everyone of us knows Su Dongpo. Su Dongpo had many ups and downs in his life. Because there is a moment of open-mindedness. Always be strong and heal yourself in the midst of suffering. Looking at the book. There are so many poems by Su Dongpo that I like. There are so many stories behind these poems. There are so many catchy verses that we have. Really well written.

The boat passed away from now on, leaving the rest of my life in the river and sea, detached, free and easy
