Old Poem: Sitting Upright And Becoming A Buddha
Old Poem: "Sitting Upright And Becoming A Buddha"
The raindrops falling along the eaves
At the intersection of vegetation recovery
Play a clear spring morning song
On one page of an ancient book
One sits upright and becomes a Buddha
The sound of wind and rain outside
It's all natural music
Ten thousand white lotuses are out of the dark world of mud
All are the face of a fairy
Buddha's light comes from the south
A rainbow bridge shines in the clear sky
Swans and sparrows fly freely
By Vicha Viye/Weixia Weiye LL
Note: This poem was written about 4 years ago. The poem was inspired by pictures of Buddha in antique books, and the weather conditions at that time. In the poem, it is written "Buddha's light comes from the south", the "south" written here refers to South Asia (because of the distant history and culture, Buddha's light rises from here first), the basic purpose of Buddhist culture is to universalize all beings, the pursuit of a spiritual self-transcendence and It also has the concept of equality of all beings. "In Chinese, "Swan" means "powerful and noble class", "swallow bird" means ordinary people in Chinese. The ideal in this poem is to have an equal world, where people of all classes can live equally and freely, and can "fly" for their ideals. (1-21-2022)

旧诗：《 端坐成佛 》
顺着屋檐落下的雨滴
在草木复苏的路口
奏出清亮的春之晨曲
古书一页上
一人端坐成佛
外面风声雨声
都是天籁琴音
万顷白莲渡出淤泥暗界
都是天女之颜
佛光自南冉来
一座虹桥闪耀晴空
鸿鹄与燕雀都自由飞越
作者：Weixia Weiye /Vicha Viye LL
注：此诗写于约4年前，此诗灵感来自古董图书佛像图片与当时的天气环境。 诗中写的“佛光自南冉来”，这里写的“南方”，当时写作时指的就是南亚（因为遥远的历史文化，佛光从这里开始最先升起的），佛教文化基本宗旨是普渡众生，追求一种心灵的自我超脱与自由，也有众生平等的概念。“鸿鹄”在中文里有“权贵阶层”的意思，“燕雀”在中文里有普通人民的意思，这诗里的“桥”是一种象征，此诗里理想是有一个平等的世界，不管什么阶层的人，都平等的自由自在的生活，都能为理想“飞翔”。（1-21-2022）
