A Dream Like a Yellow Beam Must Eventually Wake Up, and the Mirror, Flowers and Moon Are Always Empty

The sentence "Yellow beams must wake up from a dream, mirrors, flowers, and water are always empty." This sentence expresses a clear understanding and emotion of illusory and unreal beautiful things. Huang Liang Yi Meng usually refers to the story of experiencing prosperity and wealth in a dream, but waking up to find that everything is in vain. For example, Lu Sheng failed in the imperial examinations many times, and experienced a rapid rise in the dream, but in the end it was all in vain. It warns people not to be overly obsessed with illusory dreams and pursuits, but to cherish the real life of the moment. The flower in the mirror, the moon in the water, is a vivid metaphor for those things that seem beautiful but are unreal and elusive. Just like the moon in the water or the flowers in the mirror, although they are beautiful, they cannot be truly owned. In short, this sentence reminds people to recognize reality clearly, not to be fooled by illusory appearances, and to live down-to-earth.
