Braga, the Religious Ctr of Portugal(葡萄牙宗教中心·马裤城)

Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935)
To be great, be whole: nothing that's you
Should you exaggerate or exclude.
In each thing, be all. Give all you are
In the least you ever do.
The whole moon, because it rides so high,
Is reflected in each pool.
—— ? —— ? —— ? —— ? —— ? —— ? —— ? ——
(葡萄牙)冒险者·佩索阿“法人”(1888生—1935卒)
【红霞译】
要想伟大，就必须完整：你不需要
夸大或排除任何东西。
在每件事上，都得全力以赴。尽你所能
力你所及。
整个月亮，只因当空高悬，
才会倒影在每个水池之中。
【注】号称葡萄牙最古老的城市——布拉加“马裤”城拥有2000多年的历史，由罗马人于公元前16年建立，被视为全国的宗教中心，位于城内的大教堂是葡萄牙最悠久的神地，地处东郊的山上仁慈耶稣圣殿则被列入联合国教科文组织《世界遗产名录》，街头巷尾遍布各式龛楣。
今天到访时正值为期两周的狂欢节，当地人先过完无价守护神的忌日(Saint Anthony's Day)，然后再来庆祝神慈圣人的生日(S?o Jo?o de Braga)，这些既是民众最受欢迎的庆典节日，也是天主教必不可少的朝圣活动，要不是亲临现场，很难想象每年六月，虔诚的信仰让葡萄牙举国上下如此灿烂满溢，令我禁不住感叹“天上人间，好时节、无过初夏”。
