Fire on the Zen (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Lai Fong Wong | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

"ZEN" (A Japanese term originated from the Chinese Buddhism "Chen" 禪) is implied to a sensual state of mind under a meditative phenomenon. During the process of Zen practice, practitioners, at the highest levels, are expected to imagine sitting in the middle of the fire and keeping clam. Hong Kong was in a social turmoil that the public thoroughly displayed an art of Zen on fire philosophically for its constant protesting activities during the year of 2019.

Most Hong Kong protesters have been willing to go through the "fire" for re-identifying themselves, whereas all personal senses are to be refining over the fire of love and hostility, passion and confusion, leading lives to enlighten for a new page of complete democratization on their homeland. Such kind of devotion have successfully motivated a massive movement amid young people for turning their original weak habits into waves of diverse and activating strength, the calm be shock, peaceable be forceable, and vice versa. When lighting a fire on positive purpose, there is a paradoxical martyr's emotion for aesthetically "burning into ash" as an ending.

Hong Kong's temporal anti-extradition social movement has chronically been rooted on a dramatic shift of civilian identity and a sense of belonging since the United Kingdom handed over its 100-year-ruling colony back to Communist China in 1997. Metaphorically, it generates symbiotic effects beyond a single regional defiance on itself and gradually extends to a totally unexpected universal context.
