#buddhology 無門慧開(1183年—1260年),俗姓梁、字無門,浙江杭州人,宋代禪僧。 He wrote this poem > 春有百花秋有月, > 夏有涼風冬有雪; > 若無閒事掛心頭, > 便是人間好時節。 what I understand from this is that every season (every time) has its own beauty. ==The external environment can be always good and adorable if we don’t have worry in our mind==. 「春有百花秋有月,夏有涼風冬有雪」,春天的百花開了,秋天的月亮特別皎潔,夏天吹拂著徐徐涼風,冬天飄著皚皚白雪。一年四季,春夏秋冬的更替,就像我們一生中生老病死的過程一般。假如能正確面對生老病死的無常、榮辱得失的好壞,那麼,無時無處都能安詳自在了。[^not-good] [^not-good]: this is not a good explanation because the first two sentences are not about the cycle of seasons (life). If it is about cycle of seasons, it should be autumn => yellow leaves, summer => hot 「若無閒事掛心頭,便是人間好時節」,我們心裡常掛念一些和自己不相關的人、事,到最後,往往讓身心不得安寧。如果能對世間的功名富貴、利害得失,不過於罣礙,沒有了得失心、計較心,就是人間最好、最美的時節了。 He also said this > [[大道無門]],千差有路;透得此關,乾坤獨步。
