Following the sound, I turned around and saw Yu Dan arriving with weak steps, with neatly trimmed short hair. Wearing a little makeup, a black knee-length cotton coat, and black short boots, she shook hands with me with a smile as bright as the sun. What I encountered was a kind of female firmness, a mother’s delicacy, and a teacher’s magic – also It is these hands that have touched the depths of countless people’s souls through “Hundred Schools Forum”. When I listened quietly to her words, a pot of Pu’er, a ray of sunshine, and everything within reach seemed to be transformed into poetry by those hands, beautiful and long.
After a blockbuster transformation into an “academic superwoman” in 2006 on “Hundred Forums”, a few years have passed. The usual Yu Dan rarely appears in public places and rarely accepts exclusive interviews with the media. She has just participated in a certain underwear The brand show is out of friendship. In addition, it is more about traveling to countless educational forums and seminars. She said, I am a teacher, I have been in the past, always have been, and there is no doubt that I will still be in the future. Whether she is a mother, daughter, wife or teacher, whether she is sought after by everyone or criticized by many, Yu Dan has only one role that will not change, that is, a woman, a woman who loves beauty and has a sharp perception of beauty. “If I can position myself, I will I would rather be a woman with a sense of luck, this is also the lifestyle I am satisfied with,” she waited. In 2010, Yu Dan’s domestic schedule will become more intense. Expanding her knowledge of “The Analects” abroad and spreading Chinese traditional culture around the world are her next steps.
I know very well that what I am doing is not high-end research.
“What is real civilization? It is what the “Book of Changes” said, ‘About humanities to transform the world’, that is, if you observe In addition to the various forms of humanities in the world, we also need to use an ideological concept to spread the world and turn it into a way of life. Therefore, I am willing to live as a verb. I think this is the attitude towards life that contemporary intellectuals can choose to complete This matter of ‘transformation’. There is no shortage of ‘culture’ for our nation. We have so many examples. The key is how to transform it into our lives? Some people need to do it and complete a task within the current coordinates. A kind of resolution. And everyone has the freedom to love your culture sincerely and simply.”
In October 2006, after Yu Dan gave a lecture on “The Analects of Confucius” in the “Hundred Schools Forum” , and then he lectured on “Experiences of Zhuangzi” during the Spring Festival in 2007. In 2007, the first edition of “Experiences of “The Analects of Confucius” sold out 500,000 copies; in 2008, it was translated into 30 languages and began to be distributed around the world.
“Everyone has different food tastes. Some people like Chinese food, and some people like Chinese food. But when you talk about rice, who would say that I will not eat rice in this life? I think there must be some in Chinese culture. As rice and steamed buns are something that everyone has, even if they are illiterate, they have the right to know Confucius.” It was these “rice” and “steamed buns” that made Yu Dan become a popular idol overnight and was called an “academic superwoman”; She became the target of criticism at night, and people questioned her basic understanding of Confucius and the Analects of Confucius.
“I have always felt that culture can be achieved in two ways: one is high-end research and the other is low-end development. I know very well that I am doing the latter. China is in the process of autocracy. Authoritarianism is not only a vote and a political right, but also a sharing of cultural rights. It cannot be said that ordinary people are not worthy of reading classics because they are not knowledgeable enough.How to make all this reach a balance. ”
Yu Dan often visits cinemas and theaters in the capital. She will not miss every edition of the drama “Rhinoceros in Love” and can even memorize large sections of the lines. No matter it is When he was still a teacher, Yu Dan was considered a fun-loving person. “When we bear heavy responsibilities in this world, we should not be like ascetics who have to endure hardships, but should be happy to lift the weight as lightly as possible. It’s strangely heavy, so why not lift it up lightly? Even if she goes to Chongqing to give a speech, she will take time out of her busy schedule to go to a hot spring with her friends. “I carry yoga clothes in my suitcase,” she said, pointing to the travel suitcase that will accompany her to Chongqing. “I have to practice yoga every day, even if Will stick to it even when traveling. A person can work with a very nervous rhythm internally, and live with a very calm rhythm internally. The internal and external rhythms can be balanced. ”
