This time I traveled to Wuyi Mountain in Fujian. I didn't make any plans and just went on a whim. I decided to stay and go wherever I wanted when I drove to the place. I drank tea, ate, walked and climbed the mountain. I rarely cared about things on the Internet. I carefully observed the trees every day, watched the color change of the sky and the sunset, and suddenly I appreciated the charm of deep boredom. My concentration was suddenly drawn to the life in front of me. The flowing stream, the trees on the tea mountain, the changes in the shape of the tea leaves when brewing tea, and the hot temperature of the covered bowl all became my subtle feelings. This is quite similar to my previous experience of Zen meditation. I handed in my mobile phone for 7 days, and I couldn't talk or even make eye contact. What I had to do every day was to meditate. I also chose the lying-flat accommodation. I chose the more design-conscious "Guanlan Shuyuan". I slept until I woke up naturally, and when I woke up, I stared at the window view. After breakfast, I drank tea. The lady at the B&B said: People in Wuyi Mountain brew and drink tea all year round. Everything they do can be related to drinking tea. .
All wood elements make people relax.
People who calm down can even smell the fragrance of wood.
Sleeping, making tea, reading, eating,
Just focus on these things,
give up being fed by big data,
and give up short videos, TV series, hot searches, news,
and stay with yourself and nature very attentively.
You can feel the energy slowly returning.
.
Everything in nature has its own rhythm and rules,
and it seems that the accelerated life is fighting against the rhythm of nature.
Here you can really feel "connected with heaven and earth",
I think of what the healer said to me when I went to Zen photography:
Tea leaves absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and come to you,
Listen to the gurgling sound of boiling water when making tea,
Tea tasting is to open your senses to feel the fragrance of plants and trees in the tea soup,
Not just drinking tea, but also feeling yourself in the present,
It is to keep mindfulness when doing things.
.
It turns out that the real deep boredom,
is to cut off the inertia of "passive reception" first.
When the algorithm no longer feeds my eyes,
I naturally begin to grow tentacles to observe the world.
When the sensitivity opens,
I will feel that everything around me is a flowing story.
.
I really enjoy the deep boredom of the past few days.
There are no check-in photos in the mobile phone album,
and the memo is filled with various records of peaceful moods.
(I empathize with Tao Yuanming)
I suddenly found that opening my eyes every day to observe the speed of the clouds moving,
listening to the sound of the stream flowing,
and then brewing a pot of tea,
soaking myself in a chill state,
has become the part I look forward to most.
