Beautiful quotes from "Insight in Solitude" by Fangyu Zhang

Life is like a process of ascending and descending a mountain, and the time to be able to linger and look out from the top is very short.

The desire for recognition from others is a reflection of our own inner darkness. If you were truly the sun, you would not be so far gone that you would need a meteorite to prove your light.

Everyone has his own horizon, and one cannot see beyond his own height.

People often talk about the height of the mountain top at the foot of the mountain.

The romance of being alone, vast and deep, that is between a man and the whole of existence.

In the warmth of relationship, one gets lost. Solitude is bleak, but it is in this bleakness that one's soul will crystallize and thus find himself

Insight and sensitivity come from inner clarity, while numbness and slowness are the products of inner confusion.

Outwardly, one can know the breadth of existence, inwardly, one can know the depth of existence.

Coming to the heights doesn't get us anything, because the higher you go, the more there is nothing, but it gives us a better view of what's down there.

A bird in a cage must often miss the freedom of the sky. Two little birds that are caged together, and soon they forget the sky.

Wisdom always keeps its eyes on the whole, the eyes of desire keep scanning on the parts.

One who flattens himself on the horizontal plane loses his height on the vertical plane.

Truth is never as capable of being overrun by a swarming crowd as the gates of a city. Truth is vast, but the way to it is a narrow path.

The sight of a pure and clear stream gives us pleasure, while a filthy gutter gives us boredom. Similarly, the joy of the heart comes from inner clarity and purity, while the distress comes from inner confusion and filth.

The first half of our life is like a slow climb up a mountain, facing the sun and hope. In the second half of our lives, we begin to slide down the mountain, we have come to the back of the mountain, the sun no longer shines on us, and the sky is darkening.

Spatial distance creates illusions, and a rainbow appears in the sky because we are spatially distant from it. If you try to go up and grab it, it disappears, but it is precisely where it disappears that you see a new rainbow in the distance.

Distance in time creates the same illusion, hope is always in the future, you have to distance yourself for some time to see it, it is like a rainbow that can only be seen from a distance, but you can't really catch it.

We feel that time is passing, when in fact it is our own lives that are passing, time itself never moves, it is always watching us pass. It's like when we're on a boat and we see the banks receding, but it's an illusion.

Only those who despise superficial escapism can reach the deep inner joy.

Just as each person has his or her own unique fingerprints, so in this world, each person must have a unique path of his or her own, a path that only you can walk and no one else can walk through. Your destiny is to go through this road, so do not need to look left and right to see if there is someone behind you to follow, only when your front and back and left and right are no longer anyone, you really go the right way.

The real mediocrity is not the kind of mediocrity that accomplishes nothing in society, but the mental and spiritual emptiness, an inner desolation.

Pride is usually associated with one's inner spiritual qualities, while vanity often accompanies one's outer material possessions. Pride is the possession of an inner height, but this hidden height will not be visible to others. Vanity, on the other hand, is the attempt to build up a height through outward accumulation and display, in order that everyone may see it.

Only a man with his own unique height can face his defects openly. He doesn't hide them, and he may even expose them intentionally, because they don't diminish his height, and even those flaws are part of his overall height.

The more unkind a person is, the more he desires to be loved. The goodness itself is the best and purest nourishment for the good.

The reason why a person cares about what others say about him, the reason why a person is concerned about being looked up to or looked down on by others, that is because his inner height is still far from enough. If a person has reached a height above the clouds, then he is beyond all looking up or down, and in fact almost all people have lost sight of him.

For such a person, people can only make some wild guesses about him, while he himself will enjoy the guessing game with a relaxed mood.

But the web unexpectedly gave it a cradle-like feeling, and before long, the little flying insect was enjoying swinging on the spider's web. Of course, it all seemed fine until the spider showed up.

The same is true of our lives: everyone is born struggling and crying, and then we have to adapt to the world, and as we become more and more absorbed in it, we end up treating it as a place where we can realize our personal ambitions and seize pleasures and enjoyments. Of course, it all seems fine until aging, disease, and death set in.

Time is often guilty of presbyopia or farsightedness; it often can't see what's near, but it can see what's far away, and the farther away you are, the clearer you can see it. But as far as the long run is concerned, everything else can be wrong, only time is not wrong. Time is like a just river, and whether a thing is finally sunk by it or lifted up by it, it is the fairest judgment of that thing itself.

7

Wrong things only briefly rise to the surface by overlapping and trampling on each other, because they are not buoyant in themselves. Truth, on the other hand, is often held down by error for long periods of time, but the river of time, either rapid or slow, will one day wash away this structure, and so truth rises to the surface through its own buoyancy.

Truth once surfaced is always on the surface, and the forces that have been trying to suppress it can never reach it again.

Truth loves to live in solitude; it is satisfied by its own character and needs nothing but itself. Fallacies and prejudices are numerous, but since they are so weak in themselves that they need each other's help to barely stand, they have no choice but to come together and live in groups. And this group living led to trampling and never-ending fights between them, and still does to this day.

It is easy to enjoy and even to own these flowers; you need make no effort, you can even leave your home, if you plant a pot of flowers at home. But if you want to enjoy those exotic flowers that can almost make you lose your mind, you have to have the courage to go through the desert that is less traveled, and the name of that desert is loneliness.

Our deepest soul is like a great king who has been waiting for the arrival of God, his honored guest. And our senses are like the king's captive gatekeepers and servants, who are vulgar and snobbish, who don't recognize the honored guest and don't like his dress, and who think that God should be similar to themselves in both looks and dress. So every time that honored guest came knocking at the door, these vulgar fellows turned him away. For this reason we pass by the truth and the divine in all our lives.

In geological history, those powerful, ferocious forces have been recorded, because only the powerful things leave traces, and that's exactly how powerful it is. Massive volcanic eruptions, for example, are recorded in the form of ash among the geological layers, and dinosaurs and saber-toothed tigers have left their fossils behind. But in the long history of the earth, there have been countless exotic flowers and plants, their dance in the wind, and the fragrance they emit will never be known.

Similarly, one of the drawbacks of relationship is that it hinders one's awareness of oneself; the smoke created by relationship blurs everything, making it confusing to figure out what is self-generated and what is someone else's, and everything becomes entangled.

The very nature of relationships is that they are unclear, and even if it takes your whole life, you can't possibly figure it out, and in the end your whole life will be lost in its murkiness.

22

Just as geologic faults are the locus of natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis, in the same way, relationships are the breeding ground for people's pain, misery, and calamity. If a person stakes his happiness on his feelings and relationships with others, then it is as if he has built his house on a geological fault.

In a sense, the connections and relationships of the geologic plates are similar in that they are a patchwork. A patchwork is never as good as a self-contained thing, because when things are put together, there is always squeezing and friction between them, and in the midst of that, potential crises of all kinds are always being bred, and that has to be ventilated and exploded outward eventually.

23

Individually, a person can grow vertically upward, like a piece of bamboo growing straight upward toward the sky and the sun. In relationships, people are like entangled vines that have a hard time growing tall.

26

It may not be enough to separate one dimension at a certain distance if one is to see it completely; one must even stagger to another dimension. Then, these two levels are like two different lenses, which can play the role of magnification and microscopy, and so everything is seen to the fullest.
