'Living in the Potala Palace, I am the biggest king in the snowy region. Wandering in the streets of Lhasa, I am the most beautiful lover in the world'. It all starts with this poem, and let's talk about the life of Kuruang Gyatso. Having spent five years in Tibet, I have a certain understanding of Tibetan culture, including of course their writing and language, and I think of him when I pay visits to the Potala Palace and Zashlunpo Monastery. His status in the hearts of the Tibetan people should be equal to that of Nalan Rongruo in ours, the most infatuated man in the past three hundred years.

Although he was the Dalai Lama, he was actually a puppet, confined in life, at the mercy of politics, depressed in his heart, and full of longing for freedom and love. It is said that he spent his evenings as a nobleman in the streets of Lhasa, singing and dancing, and living with his beloved. In the end, of course, he became a victim of political struggle and was deposed by the Kangxi Emperor and escorted to the capital, where he passed away by the Qinghai Lake.

I have read his poems, which are basically included in the book "Love Songs of Kurang Gyatso", initially in Tibetan woodcut version, but later Professor Yu Daoquan annotated the Chinese meaning under the original poems and translated them into Chinese and English versions to make his poems famous in China and abroad. According to the test, more than 60 poems included in "Love Song" were basically written by Cang Yang Gyatso himself, and there are more than 200 poems on the market, online and in other titles, most of which are forgeries. This book is authoritative. The translation is also very level, the maximum extent to retain the flavor of the original poem, so I'm sorry, whenever you open your cell phone or computer browser, Baidu or other or, a search Cang Yang Gyatso, out of a large number of Cang Yang Gyatso the most impressive sentence, or Cang Yang Gyatso the most beautiful poem or something. One of them is "see and not see" ah, you see, or not see, I am there, not sad and not happy. You read or do not read, love is there, no increase or decrease. That day", that day, I closed my eyes in the incense mist of the sutra hall, I suddenly heard you chanting the true words in the sutra, that month, I shook all the wells, not for the supernatural, just to touch your fingertips. And so on and so forth, he didn't write any of these. Do you think this is like his style? In this impatient society, we are filled with all kinds of information, especially this kind of fast food, chicken soup, like instant noodles, only calories, no nutrition, and no one to review the truth of knowledge, more people take the wrong things as after-dinner talk, talk about it, in fact, their knowledge base is only from the Internet. Few people can have the time to quietly read the original, or can sink their teeth into the system to read the original, read the classics. My knowledge base, still the oldest way to get, and I only read paper books, e-books do not see 20 minutes dizzy, paper books to read a whole afternoon feel like enjoyment, you can hear the crisp sound of turning the pages, you can smell the book. Online things look good, do not take it too seriously, most of them are such a situation, who is famous when a certain sentence is who said, a certain sentence is who wrote. For example, the song "If you understand me that how good" Yu Qiu Yu fire when it is said that Yu Qiu Yu wrote, and then Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize and said that Mo Yan wrote, and then there is that sentence also said that Mo Yan wrote, so he wrote his own microblogging clarification, he said he also wanted to know who said the words in the end.

Although I have known Kurayang Gyatso for a long time, but the last few years let him on the Internet fire I think it should be Ge in the non-committal do not disturb inside a woman called Zha Xilam Duo wrote a "Ban Zaguru white horse silence" poem, that is, you see, or do not see me, I am there, not sad or happy. This poem is very hot on the internet, although the author herself is not as hot as this poem, but I have bought her poetry book. The other day I interacted with her on Twitter, and the name was changed to See and Don't See and the falsehood that it was written by Cang Yang Gyatso. In fact, she personally believe in Buddhism, said is the master lotus peanut to the disciple never leave well, converted to Buddhism. It has nothing to do with the wind and the moon.

In fact, reading Cang Yang Gyatso's poems you will see most of them are written about male and female love, there is shyness, joy, regret, steadfastness, but also resentment. But in the plain narrative there is a profound philosophy, which is very inspiring to readers. Since it is a poem, it uses the iambic rhythm of the language itself and the characteristics of folk songs in its form, with a strong sense of rhythm, presenting musical beauty. The richness of meaning is also one of his characteristics. It is somewhat like the poems in the Book of Songs. For example, on the top of the east, the white moon rises, and the face of Maggie Ami gradually appears in my heart. Another example is that among all the people, do not reveal our true feelings, if you have an intention in your heart, please convey it with your eyebrows. In all the poems, there is basically no religious content. In the dull literary world at that time, he created a clear stream, and his short 25 years seemed to be only to leave these immortal poems. The classics will always be passed on.
