Socrates once told him to go to the wheat field.
Why don't you go back?
Pick the biggest and best ears of wheat on the road.
But only once.
Plato thought it was easy.
Feel free to go out
But he still didn't go back for a long time.
Finally, he appeared in front of the teacher in frustration and told the reason why he left empty-handed:
"
It is rare to see beautiful plants, but I don't know if they are the best.
I have to, because I can only choose once, I have to give up and see if there is a better one.
When I found that I had reached the end, I realized that I didn't have an ear of wheat in my hand.
At this time, Socrates told him:
"
That is love.
"
Plato asked his teacher Socrates one day what marriage was.
Once, Socrates told him to go to Lin Bin Forest.
Why don't you go back?
On the way, you should choose the best and most suitable tree materials for the Christmas tree.
But only once.
Plato learned the last lesson.
Feel free to go out
After a long time, he dragged a tall and green fir tree, but it was a bit sparse.
Socrates asked him:
"
Is this the best wood?
"
Plato answered the teacher:
"
Because I could only take one tree, I finally saw a seemingly good one and found that time and physical strength had passed.
There are not enough Buddhist scriptures, whether they are the best or not, I will take them back.
At this time, Socrates told him:
"
That is marriage.
"
Plato once again asked his teacher Socrates what an affair was.
Socrates told him to go to the Woods once.
You can walk around.
Pick the most beautiful flowers on the road.
Plato went out with confidence again.
Two hours later, he came back with a bright but slightly missing flower.
Socrates asked him:
"
Is this the best flower?
"
Plato answered the teacher:
"
I searched for two hours and found that it was the most blooming and beautiful flower, but I picked it on the way and brought it back.
It gradually withered.
At this time, Socrates told him:
"
It was an affair.
"
Another day, I asked my teacher Socrates what life is.
Socrates told him to go to the Woods once.
You can walk around.
Pick the most beautiful flowers on the road.
Plato learned his previous lesson.
Go out again.
After three days and nights, he didn't come back.
Socrates had to go into the Woods to find him, and finally found that Plato had camped in the Woods.
Socrates asked him:
"
Did you find the most beautiful flowers?
"
Plato said, pointing to a flower on the side:
"
This is the most beautiful flower.
"
Socrates asked:
"
Why not take it out?
"
Plato answered the teacher:
"
If I take it off, it will wither immediately. Even if I don't pick it, it will wither sooner or later therefore
I lived next to it when it was still in full bloom. When it fades, look for the next one. this is
Quiet is the second most beautiful flower I have found.
"
At this time, Socrates told him:
"
You already know the meaning of life.
"
