Live Your Best Lives
If you go to Mount Emei, if you don't go to the Golden Peak, it's the same as not going!
If you don't watch "Only Mount Emei", you only went to half of Mount Emei!
In February 2023, when I walked out of "Only Mount Emei: Drama Fantasy City", I received calls from my daughter one by one. At that time, I hadn't come out of the plot yet, and I responded to my daughter's greetings with a thick nasal voice.
She said, Mom is crying? You have to cry when you are an adult, so embarrassing!
This is the first time.
In May 2023, after I walked out of "Only Mount Emei: Drama Fantasy City" again, I stood on the side of the road and called my daughter 11. 11 was awakened by the crying on the phone.
She said, Mom, don't cry, let me hug you!
This is the second time.
In July 2023, I walked into "Only Mount Emei: Drama Fantasy City" with 11. She was about to turn 12 and asked me excitedly about everything about this place, and she squeezed my hand until the show started.
She said, Mom, I will accompany you this time, and I want to cry together!
This is the third time.
I don't think I'm a person with low tears, but this "Only Mount Emei" made me cry again and again. In fact, in the past days, I have been to Mount Emei many times, climbing the Golden Peak, watching the sea of clouds, watching the rhododendrons, and tasting the snow buds of Emei...... I have visited almost all the attractions of Mount Emei.
Only this year, I walked into "Only Mount Emei" for the first time, and the result was to enter, stop, enter, and stop again. Because, when I really walked into "Only Mount Emei", it reflected my appearance -
it is the epitome of the thousand-year-old Emei, and it can lead us to truly enter Mount Emei and truly understand the truth and ordinary under the magnificence of Mount Emei. Even, touch my heart and let me truly understand myself.
And every cry also has subtle differences, which is not only an expression of emotion, but also a manifestation of life force.
In my opinion, the story of "Only Mount Emei" also has "admonition":
admonishing us to respect life; admonishes us not to forget the ideals in our hearts; admonishes us not to forget the mountains and waters of our homeland even if we leave our homeland; It also advises us not to forget our original intentions ...... when we are coerced by the years to move forward
is a place name next to the golden dome, called the Sacrifice Cliff. That is where Mount Emei is soaked with the most tears. In
the story "Only Mount Emei", the world-weary little girl in the sea of clouds was redeemed by an old lady with a similar life experience on the way to the cliff of sacrifice. She said:
You can only live a corner by yourself, and you can live the whole world by living others.
Thegolden peak is 3079 meters above sea level, which is the highest point of the scenic spot, and there is a 48-meter-high statue of the "Ten Directions Puxian Bodhisattva" on the golden peak, which is the highest golden Buddha in the world, under the sunlight, the Buddha's light is dazzling and golden, the golden peak is a small plain, and the sacrificial cliff is on the side of the golden peak, and the strange rocks are frightening.
It is majestic and steep, with an inaccessible primeval forest with interlaced ravines under the cliff, from which countless sad people have jumped and plunged into the earth since ancient times.
Outsiders think that this place is called "Sacrifice Cliff", in Emei, its real name is actually "Body Cliff", which means that the Buddha's light often appears on the golden roof, and the Buddha's light takes the image of the human body in it, telling the admonition of "the human body is rare, cherish this life".
In the story, the little girl bathed in the Buddha's light here, and at that moment the light in the theater was bright, illuminating the painful people physically and mentally, and the suicide note floated down from the rising stage, and the audience in the audience all cried.
On the stage, it is not a one-person story - what happened to the excluded teacher? Are the women who stayed in the village after the educated youth returned to their hometowns okay? How does a girl face a boyfriend who has changed her mind after going down the mountain? Walking up the cliff of self-sacrifice and coming back, the heart along the way is not an easy outing, this trip is a question of life.
丨This is the attitude of Emei people towards suffering丨
"Only Mount Emei" has no answer
to live others and live yourself
It is the attitude of Emei people towards life
,no
one can change the pain
in life, but it can change the attitude towards pain,
just like the Buddha statue on the golden roof
,quietly facing all compassion,
the tears that flow silently on my cheeks
are the strengthand backbone
of my innerquestioning "Why climb Mount Emei? Because the mountains are there.
"Why watch "Only Mount Emei"? Because the people of Mount Emei and the souls of Mount Emei are there. "
In Mount Emei, there is tenacity, courage, and an unchanging backbone. The porter stood in the rugged aluminum mesh and said, "I am more than a thousand years old." The bright stage lights hit his dark skin, and he was thousands of troops, stitching the distance between the mountains and the foot of the mountain endlessly.
In "Only Mount Emei", Monk Taiquan presided over the construction of the main hall, the forest path was difficult to walk, and the monk Taiquan bent down to the back-of-the-house men in the theater. The tired backer straightened up and said, "I carry it."
In the story, the people of Emei Mountain, carrying bricks on their backs one basket after another, moved like ants and built a hall without beams. Everyone's tears will burst out of their eyes at this moment, this kind of power growing from the soil of Emei, how hard and tiring, how moving, the power of struggle, the more silent it is, the more deafening it is.
In reality, everyone can stand in the beamless brick hall, the square dome has an indescribable divinity, and the "Shengshou Wannian Temple" given by the Ming Shenzong is at the main entrance of the main hall. The hall is 18.22 meters high, 16.02 meters long and wide, with a construction area of 257 square meters, and is completely made of bricks. There are doors in front and behind the hall, and the front door of the brick hall has the words "Shengshou Wannian Temple" inscribed by Ming Shenzong. For more than 400 years, it has experienced 18 earthquakes with a magnitude of 5-7.9 and has remained unharmed, it is a miracle, a miracle that can be picked up with both hands.
To this day, Emei still has a backer. In temples with asceticism, you have to turn back from the golden peak to the dense forest on the mountainside, and the coal used in the temple in winter, the rice and oil of the monks and masters must be carried on the back, and the farthest is 9 hours. This is the life in the mountains, a life mode of life that has twice the result with half the effort, and there is a thousand-year-old resilience under the calm, but the fool wants to move the mountain away, and the mountain people choose to live with the mountain.
Sometimes, crying doesn't mean sadness.
It is an admiration for this tenacity and determination.
Load and time
"After watching "Only Mount Emei", you will be shocked to realize that you have been to Emei in the Tang Dynasty, Emei in the Song Dynasty, and Emei in the Qing Dynasty.
Courage and persistence are moving, and the beauty of Emei is delightful.
InWannian Temple, he listened to the piano with Monk Guangjun, and Li Bai sat on the ground and wrote the sound of high mountains and flowing water: "Shu monk hugs Luqi and goes west to Emei Peak." Waving my hand, it feels like listening to the pines in the valley. The guest heart washes the flowing water, and the aftermath of the frost bell echoes. Before I knew it, the green mountains were dusk, and the autumn clouds were already thick. In the hand-woven stage stone barrier of the aluminum mesh, the monk and Li Bai left a silhouette of the ages, the sound of the piano came from the Tang Dynasty, accompanied by the morning bell and evening drum, the clouds steamed and the clouds were blue, and under the stage were walking tourists, and the lights gradually faded, as if the autumn clouds were stacked under the dark layers, floating through the pine wind of thousands of ravines.
"There are many immortal mountains in Shu, and Emei is difficult to match.Li Bai lived in Mount Emei for half a year, enjoyed the green colors of the peaks, traveled to the ancient roads and old temples, and wrote more than 20 poems about Mount Emei. A generation of poetic immortals, drunkenly lying on Emei Immortal Mountain, forming a fate for thousands of years. And Emei in ancient times was rugged and difficult. "Xidang Taibai has a bird path, which can cross the top of Emei." Since ancient times, Emei has had a "slide pole", which is made of two bamboo poles on the spot, set up a reclining chair, and lifts the people who swim in the mountains.
the backer carried Li Bai, the Zen master during the Wanli period, and the pedestrians and tourists; They have also memorized Zhang Sanfeng's handwritten engravings, Kangxi inscription plaques, river sand cement needed for road construction, and steel cables ...... erected ropeways
But what about not just carrying a porter
? Don't look at you sitting in the office in the city, you are also a backer! It's just that the things on the back are different! You guys! They are all backers! It's just that the things on the back are different!
The middle-aged man next to me wiped his face, and the young girl behind him began to sob, the hardships were exposed, and everyone's pressure was knocked into pieces.
The husband's question seems to be asking everyone's shoulders and spine in the air, whether there are calluses and scars left by life, as if suddenly unveiling Kong Yiji's gown and Zhang Ailing's clothes, whose life is not carrying a burden.
So there wasa kind of understood grievances and understood vulnerability in my heart: more husbands are not in Mount Emei, that is me, who has carried the sea of questions of ten years of cold windows, mortgages, children's futures, the pressure of life, and the old age of my parents...... However, the mountain will eventually have a peak, and all persistence will be rewarded in the end, just like there will be temples and Buddha statues on the top of the mountain, and Emei has become a sacred ashram.
Many tears are not flowing to the stage, but to myself, and
to thousands of you in the world.
"Who are you?" What are you doing here? What did you see on Mount Emei? What comes to mind? What kind of heart do you want to go home with? "
The village next to the theater is a village that should have disappeared in the demolition, named the old village, and after being deliberately retained as a theater, more parents in the courtyard are short, love and hate, all of which are staged in it.
In the yard, someone was waiting, and the eldest brother of the Zhu family said: Is it useful to wait? He said: Aren't you waiting too?
Someone wanted to leave, Xiaohai said: "I'm sorry for this Gaohe Village, but I have to go out and see"
Xiuxiu also wanted to leave, she said: "How stupid people are, like moths, when they see a little light, even if they sacrifice their lives, they have to rush forward" Erbao worried: "But that bright, it's hot."
Just like everyone leaves their hometown, there are dreams in the distance, there are panic, there are expectations, and there are hesitations, a little excited, a little scared, and they don't look back when they leave, and after a long, long time, they look back but tears fall.
Every night, the clouds of Mount Emei will usher in a farewell, they bid farewell to their relatives who went to Shenzhen to work, and they look forward to not being the stone in Mount Emei anymore, I looked forward to earning money and coming back, but in the end, some people stayed in a foreign land forever.
Yun said: I am the sea of clouds of Mount Emei, above me is the Buddha's light, below me is the world, I have been here for 1,000 years, I saw everyone walking on the huge "swastika" character as if walking together.
Everyone's fate is staged silently under the clouds, just like everyone who comes to watch the play, sobbing, seeing the life in the story, thinking of themselves, the clouds of Mount Emei seem to be asking in the play:
Who are you? What are you doing here? What did you see on Mount Emei? What comes to mind? What kind of heart do you want to go home with?
Unable to answer, on the way to find himself, he could only stare deeply at the beautiful mountain shape of Emei, and then bowed his head to thank Emei.
But why, on the way home, every time I think of this sentence, my eyes will be in tears?
" No matter how trivial and hard, There are always some highlight moments in life, passing through the dust of the sky, illuminating fragility and nothingness, and living others is the root of her strength. "
It is difficult for me to describe in words the hazy clouds created by hundreds of fog forest sprinklers, echoing and flowing with the sea of golden domes and clouds, surrounding this building, which seems to be the first to take the lead, hinting at the ethereal fairy spirit of the story, and it is also difficult to describe.
In the final ruins, in the dim scene, the shining aluminum mesh on the canopy brings out some unreal dreamy atmosphere, and in the big scene is the ruins of the village, you can see the yard and the room, but the walls are only about 1 meter high, and the stove, tables and chairs, and cabinets in the room are vividly remembered, gray, and silent like a dream.
The actors include a young girl reading a book, a man standing by the window, an old man sitting on the wall looking into the distance, and an aunt leaning against the stove, like people who have been in the village. But it is so strange, reading books and sewing insoles seems to be scenes that people see when they dream.
Dreaming of your hometown, there is no story, no plot, no fierce dramatic conflict, and even no lines, the actors turn over the blessings to you one by one, the flow of time, the changes of history, the trees and rivers in the base, and the people who have lived here for generations, all leave traces on this ruin.
everyone is a real person.
Just like the old lady in the Golden Dome Inquiry, she also has her own real life. Her mother has advanced Parkinson's cerebellar atrophy, her father-in-law is hospitalized in the hospital and wants to keep vigil, her mother-in-law is not in good health, and she has a little grandson. Three old people and a child all have to be taken care of, and the younger brother is not around, only one sister rotates with him.
Her road is not easy to walk. But one day, she met a family of three in the ruins space, and she was recognized by the child, who took the parent's hand and said, "This is the grandmother on the mountain just now." The parents corrected: "This is not a real grandma, she may be a director, they are artists." She didn't know how to answer this, she just felt lucky. No matter how trivial and difficult it is, there are always some highlight moments in life.
Under such suffering, what she thinks is still through the dust of the sky, illuminating fragility and nothingness.
This discovery brought tears to my eyes.
"The mountain has a peak, the lake has the other side, in the long road of life, everything has a turn, when we feel the aftertaste is bitter, please believe that everything will eventually return to sweetness."
In the eyes of the clouds of Mount Emei, Emei not only belongs to tourists, it also belongs to the porters, the old ladies in the village, and the sentient beings who do laundry, cook, and pick up dung and water vegetables.
People have lived for thousands of years under the gaze of the Buddha's light and the sea of clouds.
For thousands of years, Emei has been known as "the most blessed mountain in the world", it is beautiful, solemn, compassionate, sacred, cool, and quiet, but it is high, far, and mysterious.
Ittakes more than ten hours to climb the Golden Peak, and when there are no ropeways and buses, you need a stronger and more fearless faith to walk through the clouds. The villagers living in the mountains, the local mountain people and the believers who came from afar have accumulated countless stories, and the villagers rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, live a hard mountain life, and also entrust their life beliefs to the sages, who ride a six-tusked white elephant.
But there are also many elements that will break this illusion. In the past hundred profound changes, they have tried to respond to the tide of the times, and the "Only Emei Mountain" theater not far from Baoguo Temple is like a contemporary building that has grown out of thousands of years of Emei.
With "tiles" and "roofs" as the parent elements, 500,000 glass tiles form the "roof", which gradually spreads and covers from the surface to the wall, from bottom to top, creating an image and visual transition from the earth to the heavens, just like looking down on everything in the world from the heavens, which is both true and false, "above the clouds" and "in the world".
These current trends will grow here like the old village in the past, blending with the mountains in a few years.
Before leaving, an actor came over and handed me a note.
The mountains have peaks, the lakes have the other side, in the long road of life, everything has turned, when we feel bitter aftertaste, please believe that everything will eventually come back.
My tears fell on the note.
I know that this is a gift from Mount Emei and the river lord river to me.
Every time I come to Emei, I can see people wearing layman's clothes and carrying Buddhist scripture bags diagonally, walking slowly in the shadows cast by the trees. You can also see the mountain man carrying the slider, with dark skin and solid and elastic steps. In the past, I walked past them, and it was over, but now, I will think, these stones have been tens of thousands of years, these trees have been hundreds of years, I will think of these people's worship, worship, tea, outing figures coincide with the figures of thousands of years ago, the overlap of time, seems to make Emei stagnant in the years silent, this feeling makes people feel inexplicably moved and soft.
"
I will think of the brilliant Buddha light in "Only Mount Emei", the story of the husband, Li Bai who was carried up the mountain, and the countless people who cried bitterly in the Puxian Hall.
"
If you feel bitter aftertaste
,please believe
thateverything will eventually come back
" If a person has love, no matter whether it is windy or rainy, no matter where this road goes, we can smile, love ourselves, and go on magnificently! Everything comes from love, and you can see such "Only Mount Emei". "
Whenever night falls and the lights turn on, you can see that there is a kingdom of heaven that seems to float above the sea of clouds under the golden dome of Emei, which is "Only Mount Emei: Drama Fantasy City".
Here, in addition to every story that makes people cry, it has also created a number of China's firsts:
China's first immersive "drama fantasy city",
China's first live-action performance and primitive village integration of
performances,China's first use of 500,000 tiles of art architectural landscaping concept to design
China's first "swastika" stage, "movable" large-scale lifting platform
, the largest stage projection screen in China, Weiya matrix, surround image
2022 Asian Lighting Design Awards "Extraordinary Light"
......
From conception, to planning, to construction, choreography, and finally to the whole process of global performances, "Only Mount Emei" creates a "one" cut - a tearful spiritual core, emotional resonance, humanistic thinking, a hard-core building that can feel the dramatic atmosphere, and a stage special effect that makes your heart flutter and catch a glimpse everywhere...... All in order to perfectly present the world under the clouds of Mount Emei.
Here, every set, every building, every light, every sound, every picture, and every story finally becomes the highest praise. This is the love of architects, lighting designers, sound engineers, directors, and all the work teams, and it also includes the love of Emei people for Mount Emei.
In fact, I think the biggest success of "Only Mount Emei" is that this life drama can make ordinary people empathize. A qualified cultural tourism drama may be logically self-consistent and respectful of art, but an excellent cultural tourism drama also needs to have quite deep humanistic thinking and strength.
"Only Mount Emei" Everything revolves around Mount Emei, and the hard-core appearance is wrapped in a spiritual core that makes people cry. In this impetuous society, this may also be the power that people desire and need the most - to find their own lives.
