One who is drenched in rain does not fear drops of dew
bèi yǔ lín guò de rén bù pà lù shuǐ
被雨淋過的人不怕露水 is a Chinese proverb that literally translates as “One who has been drenched by the rain is not afraid of dew drops.”
Figuratively, this means:
One who has gone through hardships is not afraid of (minor)setbacks.
Daniel
Alternate form
dān ní
This is another common transliteration to Mandarin Chinese for the name Daniel.
This version drops off the third character, so it sounds a bit more like Danny than Daniel. I think our main version of Daniel is better but this is a popular transliteration according to our research on Chinese Google.
Unmoved by the Eight Winds
bā fēng chuī bù dòng
happuu sui fudou
八風吹不動 is an ancient Buddhist phrase from about 1000 years ago.
Literal meaning: “The Eight Winds cannot move [me].”
The original famous anecdote is from Song Dynasty China, involving the poet-official 蘇東坡 (Su Dongpo / Su Shi, 1037–1101) and Zen master 佛印 (Foyin).
Su Dongpo wrote 八風吹不動，一屁打過江
“The Eight Winds cannot move me; Yet one fart blows me across the river.”
Foyin’s irreverent reply exposed Su Dongpo’s ego, which is kind of a classic Zen/Chan teaching story.
For more understanding, the Eight Winds of Buddhism are usually defined as:
利 gain
衰 loss
毀 disgrace
譽 praise
稱 honor
譏 ridicule
苦 suffering
樂 pleasure
利 gain
衰 loss
毀 disgrace
譽 praise
稱 honor
譏 ridicule
苦 suffering
樂 pleasure
There are other ways to translate or interpret:
“The Eight Winds cannot move [him / the mind].”
“Unmoved by the Eight Winds.”
“The Eight Winds do not move me.”
“Not moved by the Eight Winds.”
“Unshaken by the Eight Winds.”
“Unaffected by the Eight Winds.”
“Unmoved by worldly forces.”
“Steadfast against the Eight Winds.”
“Remaining unmoved amid the Eight Winds.”
“The Eight Winds cannot move [him / the mind].”
“Unmoved by the Eight Winds.”
“The Eight Winds do not move me.”
“Not moved by the Eight Winds.”
“Unshaken by the Eight Winds.”
“Unaffected by the Eight Winds.”
“Unmoved by worldly forces.”
“Steadfast against the Eight Winds.”
“Remaining unmoved amid the Eight Winds.”
There is a shorter Japanese Zen version, 八風不動, which drops the middle character. Often romanized as happū fudō. The romanization of 八風吹不動 is arguably happū fukedomo ugokazu or happū sui fudō.
