李察寓言:羅便臣道

 9407 夢往何處  20221124





 我要記住這個夢。


 也許我會明白的。


 夢中從一個老太婆那裡買來了一輛舊車。


 那是老太婆丈夫的車。 似乎是一輛黑色的大眾汽車。 但它更要大一些。


 當我爬上駕駛座時,我身後已經坐了幾個乘客。


 這輛車很舊,似乎很脆弱, 然而非常乾淨。 以前的駕駛人似乎很愛這輛車,我相信他從前一定是位出色的車手。


 這輛車的前面儀表板上,有多一個特殊的鑰匙孔。 鑰匙是紅色的,好像是塑料,是一根複雜的方形鑰匙。 我試圖將紅色鑰匙插入孔中。 但是老太婆阻止了我。


 她告訴我這是有其他用途的,她向我解釋了幾句。 但我聽不懂她的意思。 後來我用另一把鑰匙,在另外的鎖匙孔啟動了汽車。


 汽車向前挪移了幾寸。


 我聽到一個男人在我的座位後面尖叫。 當時我記得駕駛座在左邊。 我是不慣開這樣的左撇子車的。


 那人尖叫著說是車夾著了他。 其實他的意思是説,汽車㚒著了他的銀行支票。 我說,你為什麼把銀行支票放在窗外? 銀行支票似乎被夾在附近牆上的某條縫裡了。


 那男子費了一點功夫,從牆上取回銀行支票。 然後我才意識到,這條街很窄。


 我問乘客:你們要去哪裡? 我要送你們去哪裡? 沒有人回答。 他們似乎扺達就會示意下車的。 他們不願意説明目的地。


 我不知如何地忽然想到,我們要去羅便臣道。


 我對自己說,那我們就去羅便臣道好了。 但我還是發現了奇怪的事情。


 我們好像在澳門,絕不是在香港。 澳門沒有羅便臣道的。


 然而,車子已經啟動了。 雖然我沒有意識到,其實是沒有這條路的。


 車似乎在某個陡峭的山坡上走。 我使勁踩剎車,讓下坡的車慢一點。 車離牆壁只有幾寸。


 我在街上轉了又轉。 我努力從記憶中尋找羅便臣道的方向。


 汽車有時在上坡行駛。 我用力踏加速器,根本不像是汽車的踏板,像是自行車的踏板。 我試了又試,突然奏效了。 汽車獲得動力再次上坡。


 就在這時候,我突然醒了過來。 我意識到這是一個夢。 但我無法離開這個夢, 只能躺在床上讓它在腦子裡一遍又一遍地轉。


 我不斷地問自己:我們要去哪裡? 為什麼沒有人會告訴我目的地? 我該如何將這些人帶到那個地方?


 但是我發現,車上多了一個鑰匙孔真的很有趣。


 我要用這個紅色塑料鑰匙做什麼? 如果我將鑰匙插入那個孔會怎樣? 額外的鑰匙可以幫到我嗎?


 我從任何地方都沒有答案。 我只能記著那個夢境。 夢結束得如此突然,或者我需要多些時間才明白的。

Robinsons Road

 9407   Dreaming to Somewhere  20221124




I thought I need to write down this dream to remember it.


Maybe I can get some meaning  from it later.


I brought an old car from an old woman in the dream. 


Actually, it was the old woman's husband's car.  It seemed to be a black Volkswagen.  But it was a little bigger. 


When I climbed into the drivers seat, there were already a few  passengers sitting behind me.


The car was very old.  It seemed to be flimsy.   Yet it was very clean. The  driver before managed  it so well  that I have to admit he must be an excellent driver. 


The car had got a special key hole in the front panel. The key was red. And it seemed to be plastic and complicated in a square shape. I tried to insert the red key into the hole. But the old woman stopped me. 


She told me that it was for some other purpose. She explained to me in a few words. But I couldn't get her meaning. So I used the other key to start the car.


The car moved a few inches forward. 


 I heard a man screamed behind my seat.  I remembered that the driver's seat was in the left side.  And it was not my habbit to drive in such a left handed car. 


The man screamed that the car had caught him.  Actually he meant the car had caught his bank cheque. And I said, why you put your bank cheque  outside the window?  It seemed the bank cheque had been  caught somewhere in holes at the nearby wall.  


The man tried  with some effort to retrieve the bank cheque from the wall.  Then I realized that the street was narrow.


And then I asked the passengers: Where are you going?   Where am I to take you  to? And no one  answered. It seemed that they would drop off  only by signals.  They were reluctant to tell me their destination.


Suddenly it occurred to me from somewhere that we were going to Robinsons Road. 


I said to myself,  very well then,  we should be going to  Robinsons Road.  And I found strange things later.  


That we seemed to be in Macau  and definitely not in Hong Kong.  There isn't any Robinson's Road in Macau.


However, the car had been started. And I didn't realize  that there was no Robinson's road by that time.


It seemed  to be in a steep hill somewhere. I pushed my brake hard to slow the car running downhill. It was only inches from the walls.


I turned and turned around the streets.  I tried hard from my memory  to search the directions of Robinson's Road. 


 The car was running uphill sometimes. And I pushed the fuel peddle so hard  that it was not to be a peddle from a car,  but a peddle from a  bicycle.   I tried and tried and suddenly the peddle worked.  The car gained momentum to move uphill again.


It was by this time I suddenly woke up.  I realized that it was a dream.  But I could not leave the dream. I could only let it  running in my brain again and again for a while when I was lying  in the bed.


I kept asking myself: Where are we going? Why no one would tell me destinations?  And how am I to drive these people to the place?


However I had found it really interesting that I had one more extra key hole in the  car.


What am I to use this plastic red  key for? What if I insert the key into that hole? Can the extra key help me? 


 I have no answer from anywhere. I just remembered the dream. The dream ended so abruptly  that I need to have some more time  to figure out the meaning of it.




The end.

Why should the war in Ukraine not be stopped?

 9406  Why should the war in Ukraine not be stopped? (plus more) 20221118-





Korea is a bad example for the Ukrainian conflict. 

The war in Korea peninsula had been stopped too early.  And now South Korea is a commanding height  for the US to  influence China.   I am using the word 
"influence" reluctantly.  Because some people do not regard mind capture as an attack from the enemy,  its only some kind of "influence" only.

South Korea is a bad example of  western materialism.  Their lifestyle reflects the bad side of materialism.  Now, Hong Kong is copying everything from  South Korea.   Facial makeup for boys,  and groups of young singers  as leaders of a social corruption front were prepared.   The Korean boys  were entertained into the White Palace by Biden recently.   And you can see such kind of Hong Kong young singers will be pushed up to stages  by  some people in China also. 

Those are shadows of selfish philosophy of Yang Jiang and the Nobel  crowned writers, etc.

To capture minds before land is the golden rule of war. 

And the lands will be used as military bases for the enemy.

If the Ukrainian conflict is settled  like Korea,  future difficult will be  unavoidable when a  permanent commanding height  was set up in the back of Russia and the front of the world.


note:
With this background study of the Korean war, the death of the son of Chairman Mao Zedong  is  quite suspicious.  It could be a psychological attack to Chairman Mao to make him feel uncertain and  hesitate to fight the war to a better ending.


more:

Chairman Mao had kept the clothes of his dead son for 26 years until his own death. People found the secret in 1990.

What is Avalokitesvara?

    "Era Avalokitesvara"*


*The name Avalokiteśvara means

 “the lord who gazes down upon the world.” 

Avalokiteśvara's half-closed eyes look down upon the suffering beings of the earth, his gentle smile expressing compassion for all beings.

 Avalokitesvara is a Female Goddess in China sometimes.


*(Its wonderful when I tried to check out the meaning of Avalokitesvara, I found the above meaning from the search engine, and to my surprise that it was similar to my Cantonese song: Era Maria)


*(And the look of the two words is similar.)

Turtle and Lamb Soup

 9405  Turtle and Lamb Soup  2022 1109




The Creator put many ingredients in the pot, including turtle meat and mutton, and many Arabic spices, as well as onions, potatoes, ginger, and Huaishan, berries, licorice, and so on from China. He wants to cook the best pot of soup.


Turtle meat and mutton were originally unrelated to each other, but as soon as they entered the pot, they began to fight. Each of them wants to occupy territory, each wants to grab benefits, and they don't know who will win or lose. In the end, is it a lamb victory or a turtle victory? Everyone is very concerned about this type of war. The mutton elements and the turtle elements each have their own spheres of influence. Each of them found a owner. This is the consensus: with a master, you don't have to think for yourself, you are fed.


There are emotions in the soup: Why is it always floating and sinking? Many people say that they are living involuntarily and are obeying to others. They are sometimes submerged, sometimes floating. When floating, the bubbles on the surface of the boiling water burst, like Xiang Yu of the Chu Kingdom. He was proudly looking around, and believed he could not be beaten. When it sinks, it falls straight to the depths of the bottom layer, silently. Everyone does his best and wants to float. But floating and sinking are not certain. Because this is a pot of soup, there is a fire burning underneath.


Some people say that he needs to think more for himself, he needs to be selfish, he just needs to love himself. He said, "The world has nothing to do with me." This phrase is strongly promoted.


The Creator just smiled.


Soon, a pot of soup was cooked. The fragrance spread ten thousand of miles away, and the admiration was endless. To sing or to float?  It doesn't matter anymore. In short, this is a good pot of soup.


It is said that this is human culture. This is how culture progresses.


The world has turned over and evolved.


The general behavior of humans leads to evolution.


Some friends are smart. He said that I would be a freeist and ignore everything, and will not interfere anyone. Will they escape from the outside of this pot of soup? The answer is no. The only thing that can go out is the fragrance.


The fragrance wafts for thousands of miles.


Only the fragrance can get rid of bonds. the fragrance is free. The fragrance can fly as much as it wants.


The fragrance makes the meat luscious. The fragrance stays on forever. The fragrance is the eternal element of the universe, and it is the root of soup. Without the fragrance, the soup is worthless.


The getaway freeist may become soup dregs. They have nothing to do with any idea, no one wants it, and they are leftovers to be thrown away. Although the soup dregs are also important. Dregs are also indispensable, this is the principle of soup.


So, where does the fragrance come from? In the struggle between lamb and turtle meat, when killing is inextricable. The fragrance suddenly appeared.


What is fragrance?


Fragrance is an enlightenment.


If anyone could turn his head and looks back, he might see the truth. He would know what to do, knowing that life should be used. And that is fragrance. 


The elements of fragrance are selflessness and love.


Selflessness gives him an overall feel. His observational base transcends the extraordinary. The field of vision leaves the individual and he has got compound eyes. And there is love. Love is the key to solidifying all things, and all things are in harmony. Lamb meat and turtle meat and other elements embrace warmly. The fire is constantly heated, and they are not afraid. So the fragrance was born.


A good cook does not need to look at the pot or the clock. He only needs to use his nose: when the fragrance appears, he knows it perfectly.


People suddenly realized: it doesn't matter if you win or lose. Just hug each other warmly and make a good soup. Good soup has a fragrant.


The fragrance is sublimation.


The fragrance that sublimated out was very happy. Because he has left this pot of soup. The fragrance flew happily. Thinking that he is successful, he is detached.


This is probably the fragrance’s biggest mistake: the in and the out may not be demarcated. There must be other elements besides the mind and the matter.


The fragrance didn't know: when he left this pot of soup, he was in a larger pot of soup outside.


The fragrance has to work again, and he has to work harder in this high-level soup again. Does the fragrance still have to burn himself again? Is there a fragrance on top of the fragrance? There are so many turn of lives waiting ahead and each will be a new challenge. He will never be lazy. What exactly is the fragrance living for?


Bystanders will not understand. What is the attraction of such a hard work, this absolute sacrifice?


Is enlightenment so important? Can it take a person to the next level?


Only the fragrance can leave this pot of soup. Only the fragrance can fly, isn't this the highest realm, and the best reward?


Fragrance above fragrance is beauty.


The ingredients that struggle in the soup have never enjoyed this soup before. They never knew this soup was so luscious. They have almost owned the whole world, but they never enjoy it.


Only the fragrance can see all this from a higher place and enjoy it. The fragrance is free.


Soup dregs said: I don't need freedom. The fragrance exhausted his tongue, but failed to convince them.


What is freedom? It's too hard. It cannot be explained because enlightenment is needed before everything.


There is still the in and the out, and there are still levels. There's always a bigger pot of soup outside.


The fragrance is constantly flying, like a butterfly in the flowers.


The fragrance flew layers upon layers. The sublimation has been on and on, and he never regrets it. The fragrance does not care about his blood and sweat, he does not mind.


Someday.


The Creator said, "What are you following me like this? Do you want to be my attendant?"


The fragrance said, "It's my honor."


The Creator said, "Then follow along and let people smell it."


The fragrance said: " Oh, I see, you are the fragrance."


The Creator said, "Don't be too premature to say anything, your journey has just begun."

烏龜羊肉湯

 烏龜羊肉湯



造物主把許多物料投在鍋中。包括了烏龜肉和羊肉。還有很多阿拉伯香料。以及洋蔥。馬鈴薯。薑。還有從中國來的淮山。杞子。甘草等等。要煮一鍋最好味的湯。


烏龜肉和羊肉本來是互不相干的。但一下鍋便開始鬥爭了。各自各要佔自己的地盤。各自各要搶自己的利益。不知誰勝誰負。最後到底是羊肉勝利呢還是烏龜勝利呢。大家都非常關心這一類戰爭。羊肉份子和烏龜份子各各有自己的勢力範圍。每一位都找到歸附的主人。這是共識。有了主人便不用自己思考。都有飯吃了。


湯裏面有很多感慨。總是浮浮沉沉。很多人説自己是身不由己。都在俯仰由人。有時俯伏。有時昂首。浮起時。沸騰水面的氣泡爆破。像楚項羽。睥睨四方。不可一世。沉下時。直落底層深處。無聲無息。每一位都竭盡全力。都想浮。但浮沉卻並非必然。因為。這是一鍋湯。下邊有火在燒。


有人説。他需要多為自己設想。他要自私一點。他只需要愛自己。他說。這個世界與我無干。這句話。被極力推廣。


造物主衹是微笑。


不久。一鍋湯煮好了。香味傳出去。一萬里之外都讚歎不絕。沉浮都不重要了。總之這是一鍋好湯。


據說。這就是人類的文化。文化就是這樣進步的。


世界翻了一翻。進化了。


整體的行為導致了進化。


有些朋友很聰明。他說我要做逍遙派。萬事不理。甚麼人都不得罪。他們會逃出這鍋湯外面麼。答案是不會的。能夠出去的衹有香。


香飄萬里。


只有香能夠擺脱羈絆。香才是自由的。可以隨心所欲地飛。


香味使肉質甘美。香味會留著永遠不散。香是宇宙的永恒元素。更是這湯的根本。沒有了香。湯就全無價值了。


逍遙派或者會成為湯渣。他們是無關宏旨的。沒有人要的。吃剩了要倒掉的。雖然湯渣也是重要的。甚麽渣也是少不了的。這是湯的原則。


那麼。香味是從哪裏來呢。在羊肉和烏龜肉的鬥爭之中。殺得難分難解的時候。香味忽然出現了。


甚麽是香?


香是一種覺悟。


驀然回首。看到了真相。看到了自己應該做什麼。知道生命是應該這樣揮灑的。那便有了香。


香的元素是無私與愛。


無私使他有了整體感覺。他的觀察基礎超越非凡。視野離開了個體。有了複眼。還有愛。愛是凝固萬物的關鍵。萬物融和。羊肉和烏龜肉還有其他種種元素熱烈擁抱。爐火不絕加溫。都不怕。於是有了香。


好的廚師。是不用眼睛的。也不用看鐘的。他只需要用鼻子。什麼火候。便有什麼香。他完全知道。


這時候。大家恍然大悟。勝負都不重要了。只要熱烈相擁。泡制好湯。好湯是香的。


香就是昇華。


昇華出去的香很高興。因為他已經離開了這一鍋湯。香心情愉快地飛翔。以為自己成功。超然物外了。


這可能是香最大的錯誤。內外未必可以劃界。心物之外。尚有其他。


香不知道。離開了這一鍋湯。外邊是更大的一鍋湯。


香又要努力了。又要在這高一層次的湯裏加倍努力了。香還要投入生命中去嗎。香味之上還有香味嗎。每一生每一世都不會空閒了。香到底是為了什麼。


旁觀者是不會明白的。這樣辛苦的去幹。這絕對的犧牲。到底吸引力何在。


覺悟竟是這麼重要嗎。可以使人走上一個層次嗎。


只有香能夠離開這鍋湯。只有香是會飛的。這不就是最高境界嗎。


香之上的香。是美。


在湯裏面鬥爭的材料們。其實是從來沒有享受過這一口湯的。他們從來不知道這一口湯是如此甘美。他們幾乎擁有全世界。但他們從來沒有享受過。


祇有香能夠從高一些的地方。看見這一切。也享受這一切。香是自由的。


湯渣們說。我是不需要自由的。香費盡唇舌。也未能說服他們。


什麼是自由。太難了。那是無法解釋的。因為需要覺悟。


外面還有外面。層次還有層次。外邊永遠有更大的一鍋湯。


香不斷地飛翔。就好像花間裏的蝴蝶。


香一層一層的翻。昇華了一次又一次。從不後悔。流血流汗。都不計較。


有一天。


造物主説。你這樣跟著我幹什麼。你想做我的跟班麼。


香說。這是我的榮幸呢。


造物主說。那麼你就跟著吧。讓大家都香一點。 


香説。我明白了。您就是香。


造物主說。不要太早定論。你的旅途還是剛剛開始呢。

誰在推廣精神鴉片?(2022.11.6)


 深度修飾的文字…  意思其實祇有一句:  做又三十六,不做又三十六。

沒有人生目標,到最後,生命就在空虛中消失。

沒有根的花朵,插在瓶子裏,美麗只是瞬息的徒勞。

沒有真心參與,怎麼能夠享受生命?

這一位楊絳女士,近年來不斷被大陸的某些人士吹捧。原因其實是很明顯的。

又記:
生命需要真情的投入。如果在戀愛的時候,計算得清清楚楚,結了婚又怎樣,不結婚又怎樣。那就是沒有真心投入了。不投入,怎知道人生的真味道?苦味與甜味,都要親自嘗嘗才知道。這就是叫做享受。未曾享過,也未曾受過,生命就是真的虛空。

補充:
有讀者來信,指出這未必是楊絳本人的作品。相信這是肯定的。網絡上的造假案件,層出不窮。他們用精美的編輯技巧,把拙劣的自私哲學包裝。冒用名人名字,利用秘密網絡的方便,把假文章分發,大量網絡小組發佈相同信息。

有沒有人計算一下,或者調查一下,一篇這樣的自私哲學文章。可以推廣到多麼遠的地方。現在的電腦技術這麼發達,總是不難做到的。

這篇文章的文字風格。一看就知是同一寫作班子的作品。內容千篇一律,文筆總是那麼幾句。

問題是,奶粉可以做假,鹽可以造假,雞蛋也可以造假。假的商品,有關方面正在努力清除。但網絡上的自私哲學,卻看不到清掃跡象。好像是從來沒有人需要負責。好像是在縱容或者包庇。

這是一個龐大計畫。他們絕對不會攻擊中國人的各種政策,他們攻擊的是更加基本的東西。從樹根裡深挖出去。務要把中國人的性格,從根本上推向自私的一面。長遠計畫,引誘中國人服食精神鴉片。

神州大地上,精神鴉片橫行霸道。為什麼可能 ?

(時代觀世音)


She saw all kinds of sorrow,  when

She looks at the whole world

She gives you comfort silently

Where is the sky?  Its unreachably far,  where is warmth?

Hatred is not disolved, it comes round and round

what is the thing that could show some brightness

where,  where am I going?

I need to know where.

Waiting for so many years 

My mind

She knows,  she knows

I am always hoping for the sunshine

Love, love is the echo of mind

Change,  changed the view

Singing out loud

Its just like this

Going happily hand in hand

To afar

Can you see the fate of China in the fate of one book?

 9402  Can you see the fate of China in the fate of one book  2022 1101 


The book is “Dream of the Red Chamber”. It has been locked up since the early days before the liberation of China and the lock is still there and now, double locked. 

All publications of the book were under the spell of a United States agent whose name is Hu Shi(胡適). He had said that the first 80 chapters of the book is the story of a rich man and his rich family, and it bears no internal meaning in the book. As for the other 40 remaining chapters, he said it was the work of a publication merchant. And the intention of the make-up chapters was for selling purpose only.   There has been a heated debate for this. One major opponent was Pan Zhong Gui (潘重規). He was my teacher. 

However, all debates had been useless, because Hu Shi was offered many Honorary Doctor Degrees suddenly at the same time. He was raised up to the Heaven and there seemed all argues were subsided. All publication of the book carried the author names as decided by Hu Shi. And the real intention of the book and its meaning cannot be found and people seemed to have no interest about that book since. 

It is strange enough for simple minds. Why were the 35 Western Universities offered Honorary Degrees to Hu Shi suddenly? One could not have avoided the thought that the 35 Western Universities must had received the same order to do that. It could not have been a coincidence. It is a plan. 

The question is how. 

How can the United States do that. 

And the question is the extend. How strong were their arms to reach to the Universities and what was the internal function to do such a job?  

And the outcome is more than the lost of one book in China. It harms the spirit of the Chinese. 

The book is locked up by the United States, and it is double locked. 

The second lock was from the Chinese Government. It seemed they had decided to keep the situation as it is. And the book was covered with dust in the libraries. The fake names of authors were the same and never changed. Though the book has the same position as War and Peace in Russia, Les Miserables in France, Shakespeare in United Kingdom, and Don Quixote in Spain; however, it is a pity that the fate of the book in China is not the same. Chinese people cannot understand the inner meaning of the book from the dust.   

People could only guess that why and how could the Chinese Government had such determination? Was it from the leadership or, was it from the secret agents working in and outside the Government? 

It must be the most serious threat against the Chinese. The agents were not only a few people but a complete network. If any links of the network was broken, they could use other channels to make up. One link is broken and it could be mended easily. It is an open secret in Hong Kong. People just understand the situation and many are having their own fate linked up with the network. 

It could explain why the low taste interest in the internet are so strong. People in Hong Kong can easily see the internal minds of young people during the November 1st festival of foreign ghosts. It is same in Hong Kong and Korea where ignorant  people dress up in costumes have nowhere to go to except wine bars and places of drugs. It is a mind-lost for the young generation. And Hong Kong is busy copying all the things including the low culture and rock music from Korea. It must be the same order received like the 35 Western Universities. 

What could the fate of China be in the future if all young people are rotten?    




A reference:

 胡適有甚麼學問?

                           2010. 11.29

 

  嚴格講,胡適是沒有學問的。任何一個嚴肅的學者,倘若拿出胡適的全部著作來看,就能看見,胡適對於中國文化,一點貢獻都沒有。

 

  五四時期的知識份子提倡文學革命。要打倒傳統文化,要廢除古文,等等。當時的胡適,是運動的前鋒人物。他是第一批提倡用白話文寫作的人。其實,白話文並不是新事。《紅樓夢》就是白話文寫的。比較新鮮是「白話詩」。胡適的白話詩作品,大約今日的人已經完全忘記。因為,胡適的「詩」裡,沒有美的吸引力。


  但是,胡適卻可能是擁有最多學位的人。他擁有的博士學位,共有三十五個。全世界共有三十五家大學,不約而同,爭著頒送博士學位給他。今時今日,誰能擁有更多的博士名銜?相信沒有人。

    

  到底胡適的吸引力何在?為何世界上的這些大學,如此重視他?

 

  值得研究的,不是胡適本人的學問。而是這一批知識份子,如此力捧胡適,背後的意義何在?

 

  胡適本人的學問,其實只有四個字。他主張的是:「全盤西化」。這是跟今日的某些人很相似的。今日的某些人,雖然不再提「全盤西化」這四字,但在提到政治問題的時候,總是希望照抄美國全部的政治結構。完全不用觸及西方文化的基本問題,更無視工業革命以來,西方的重大偏向。對於西方文化造成的貧窮問題,污染問題,能源問題,全不研究,全不探討。對於從西方來的享樂主義,反智主義,物質主義,一點都不觸及。


        如果你還要提及甚麼甚麼的「愛」和「博愛」,他會教訓你,要提倡多些 sustainable value。如果你對他講,西方文化是外在的,而外在傾向不可能解決文化的衝突。他也不會口啞無言。因為,他以為,這就是「務實」。而且,好像胡適所講:「多談些問題,少提些主義。」大約是,照抄了西方的全部政治架構,問題就不存在了。

 

  而這仍是不重要的。胡適自己的甚麼主張,是全不重要的,是不值得研究的。

 

  重要的是:力捧他的那三十五間大學,到底是無聊的學者們在「跟風」呢,還是有人在背後扯線,有計劃地把中國文化推向某一方向?這才是值得研究的。

 

  希望這種想法是錯的。是絕對不可能有人在背後扯線的。因為,如果真是有人在扯線的話,就意味著,最近差不多一百年來的西方學術界,以美國為首的西方學術界,是不自由的。

  

  而這是有心人不能不注視的。因為,如果你說,極權國家是不自由的,大約很多人同意。如果你說,自由國家也是不自由的。那就是問題很嚴重了。地球是不自由的地球,那麼,各種重大問題,如何解決?
