“Lotus Heart Sandalwood”
1. The Origin of the Ancient Temple When photographer Shen Qing was photographing the snow scene in the ancient temple of Zhongnan Mountain, the camera accidentally captured an old monk who was sweeping the snow. The old monk had a dark brown sandalwood bracelet on his wrist, and each wooden bead was carved with a budding lotus. “This is ‘One Thought Lotus Heart’.” The old monk took off the bracelet and handed it to her, “Sandalwood calms the soul, and lotus brightens the eyes. The girl’s lens is too cold, it should be warmed up.” The bracelet felt warm to the skin, and it actually carried the pine fragrance of the sun.
2. The fog behind the lens After returning to the city, Shen Qing found that he could no longer shoot in the gloomy style of the past. Every time he raised the camera, there would always be a subtle halo in the viewfinder-there was a golden glow behind the stray cat in the rainstorm, and silver threads were wrapped around the fingers of the quarreling couple. The editor-in-chief threw the sample magazine: “When did you change to shooting supernatural photos?” She lowered her head and touched the bracelet, and the lotus engraving had opened two petals without knowing when.
3. Cause and Effect Development In the darkroom, the newly developed photos shocked Shen Qing: the blind woman selling flowers at the subway entrance had a lotus shadow above her head, and the businessman who had been abusing his wife for a long time was surrounded by black fog. She followed the photos to find the blind woman, but she smiled and stuffed a bunch of sunflowers in her: “This morning, a sandalwood-scented master asked me to pass it on, saying that you should take some photos of things facing the sun.”
4. Lotus blossoms to see the nature When the last lotus of the bracelet was fully bloomed, Shen Qing hung two sets of contrasting works at the photography exhibition: on the left was the gray city of the past, and on the right was the newly shot “Seeing the Light” – there was a rainbow in the dust swept by the sanitation worker, and wild orchids grew in the broken tile pots on the windowsill of the orphanage. In the center of the exhibition hall, the sandalwood lotus bracelet placed under the spotlight was transforming light and shadow into a miniature lotus pond.
Meaning of the bracelet • Sandalwood: Settle delusions and illuminate the original heart • Lotus carving: Every time you untie the knot in your heart, a petal will bloom • Double fate method: Those who save others are also saving themselves
