Master Dharma:

Beauty is not absolute. When everything is comfortable, the world can hear more different voices.

Do you know that accidental kiln changes during the firing process?

In the furnaces of thousands of degrees, the flames of the bears are flushed, and the fiery tongue is constantly burned on the surface of the plain embryo. Those minerals in the glaze are constantly melted and flowing by high temperatures. You may not hear any delicate nourishment. Sound, they have already merged and infiltrated each other.

Wait until the kiln looks, how can the surface of the porcelain become such a colorful color!

If you want to ask, do you think the kiln becomes beautiful? For thousands of years, they have received many different answers. Some people feel strange, but some may be regarded as the treasure.

Today, Wangzhong will talk to you about this kind of unexpected beauty!

At first, how did people discover this kiln?

During the Northern Song Dynasty, scholar Zhou Hui recorded one incident in "The Journal of Qingbo": "The spoils of the pottery in Jingdezhen, Raozhou, the kiln in the Grand View, red like cinnabar, saying that it is confusing, and the abnormal object is. For the demon, the kiln households are broken. "

In other words, during the period of Song Huizong, the craftsmen of Jingdezhen discovered a strange thing. After a batch of porcelain was fired, I took it out and saw it. superior.

At that time, people liked the green and elegant celadon, pursuing the white porcelain of Wen Runru, but where have I seen this abnormally dazzling fluorescent red?

The crowd was disturbed, thinking that it was the signs of confusion, and quickly smashed it.

When I encountered such a kiln -transformed porcelain later, even if I was no longer scared, I often thought it was burning. Faced with these defective porcelain, you can only shake your head and abandon it.

In ancient times, porcelain fired the entire system of manual operation. It was slightly careless. The probability of burning porcelain was too high.

For example, in the Qing Dynasty's "South Kiln Notes", it said: "The color of the glaze water, the full -purpose kiln fire, or the haze of the wind and rain, the ground gas is steaming and wet, the glaze color is dark, all kinds of defects, all kiln disease."

Maybe when the kiln is burned at a certain period of time, the weather is not very good. It is windy and rainy, the air is too overcast, or the ground is too wet, which may make the color of the porcelain burned out. It is a pity that people think it is a pity.

So, what is the attitude of people's attitude towards kiln? It must be rejected.

No one will naturally like the impermanence of all things. In the face of the uncontrollable and uncertain mysterious power, we will always be unavoidable and want to find a certain answer.

However, it is also said in the "South Kiln Note" that when the proportion of the glaze water of the fire is just right, a very special kiln change may occur:

"Because the essence of the kiln fire is condensed, accidentally, naturally strange, cute and cute, it is a kiln treasure, it is not possible to get it."

They have ever -changing flames, or different lines appeared when the glaze flows down, or the changing color of the chemical reaction of minerals in the glaze ...

In other words, because the kiln becomes uncertain, it may also become a unique flawed beauty and become "kiln treasure".

As the aesthetics gradually changed with the times, people began to accept these unexpected beauty. Not only did they slowly appreciate from various angles, they also played a lot of beautiful names to recover the flavor.

The fire burned the Jun kiln in the north of the Song Dynasty. The craftsman added the local peacock stone to the glaze. He never thought that the copper contained in it was dancing with the fire, leaving this rose purple glaze bell -style flower pot.

When people stared at it, they found that the kiln's magical ax was a magical work.

The late twilight is coming, Zhu Hong's sunset and the blue sky blends a purple. The floating clouds rolled, the clouds were brilliant, and the half of the sky was red. So call it, "Luo Xia Hong".

Holding this sunset, as if he could hear the sound of the stretch, the passing of time was in front of him. People feel the beauty of years from it: there is always a moment of beauty, don't regret it in the past, and to be brilliant for the moment.

It was also in the Song Dynasty. The kiln built in the south used a black glaze. This kind of crystal glaze was very viscous. When only half of the glaze was applied, it passed the high temperature inside the kiln. In half, the kiln becomes a variety of crystals like clouds.

Huang Tingjian used to try to drink spring tea with a Jianzhan. What he said in the poem was "Jian'an porcelain bowl is spots, the curtain water and the moon are common."

There are many white dots crystals on this kind of building, densely covered with a bowl of the inner wall of the bowl, like a dot feathers scattered on the Chinese bodies, so people call it kindly, "spots".

Imagine that when Huang Tingjian held this cricket, I saw the white spots set off the tender green color of spring tea, like the new spring water of the curtain.

Before drinking it, it was already like the realm of entering the mountains and forests. Drunk and half -waking, life is wonderful.

Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty liked monochrome glaze. In the process of imitation Jun porcelain, it was unexpectedly discovered by a new kiln -changing glaze porcelain.

For example, this kiln -changing glaze pomegranate in the Liaoning Provincial Museum is lighter as beefly with the color of the outside, but the body is red and blue, and the blue is more than red, like a large blue and blue flame, so people are people. He gave it a name, "Flame Qing".

At that time, Jingdezhen used an egg -shaped kiln, putting the utensils in different thermal areas, and freely controlled the hair color of the kiln's glaze, so there was such a beautiful flame beauty. In autumn, pomegranate seeds are full of seeds. Looking at this childish and charming pomegranate respect, I feel that everything is cute and worthy of active pursuit.

To this day, no one can say clearly, how many changes will the kiln change? But at least in the aesthetic world, because of tolerance and beauty, there are many possibilities.

Sometimes, the mystery of the universe is slowly open to human beings in this way of meeting people and things.

But even in modern times, not everyone appreciates the kiln to glaze, and many people still don't agree with it.

Because the beauty of the kiln becomes is so unique. And everyone's preference for the color and matching of the utensils, or the pursuit of the overall texture, or if they don't like too gorgeous, they will have different feelings.

I remember once, a teacher burned the kiln to glaze in Jingdezhen, and we just went to see the kiln.

When the teacher took out the kiln -changing glaze porcelain, he saw the inner wall of the bowl, with a few purple flower spots, and the red of the carcass.

A colleague around him exclaimed, "This glaze color is so beautiful!" He took it carefully, looked left and right, and couldn't help it.

At this time, another colleague just walked, glanced at it, and said lightly, "This look is burned out."

Everyone said, in a word, I started arguing with interest. Finally, I would like to ask the teacher to decide.

The teacher smiled slightly and never spoke. At this time, I said, "Ah, this is a kiln treasure. I don't know how to burn it out. I can't burn the second one next time."

It's really interesting to think about it. Perhaps beauty is originally a kind of freedom.

The definition of beauty may not require any exact standards, absolute right and wrong, everything is due to the personal mind of the individual, and it should be tolerant to accept each other.

Respecting this kind of freedom seems to be not decisive enough, but think about the change of the beauty of the kiln: for thousands of years, from kiln disease to kiln treasure, it is not how much the kiln's glaze has been improved, but people's hearts are in their hearts. A lot of self -confidence has been added to the beauty.

Dare to face the defects of life, and dare to express his inner joy loudly.

In this way, regardless of the past and the future, we can believe that beauty is not absolute. When everything is free, there can be more different voices in the world.
