Lesson 22: Four Fables

 

Hermes and the Statuette

Hermes wondered how much respect he was held on earth, so he turned into a mortal and went to a statue shop. He saw the statue of Zeus and asked, "How much is it worth?" The statue man said, "A silver dollar." Hermes smiled again and asked, "How much is Hera's statue worth?" The statue bearer said, "It's a little more expensive." Later, Hermes saw his statue and thought that as a messenger and patron god of merchants, people would respect him more, so he asked, "How much is this?" The statue man replied, "If you buy those two, this one is a spare head, and you will give it away for nothing."

This story is for those who love vanity and are not taken seriously.

 

The Mosquito and the Lion / Aesop's Fables

The mosquito flew to the lion and said to him: "I am not afraid of you, you are not better than me." If not, what power do you have? Is it scratching with claws, teeth biting? Women who fight with men will do the same. I'm much stronger than you. If you want, let's fight! "The mosquito rushed over with a trumpet, biting the hairless area around the lion's nose. The lion was so angry that he scratched his face with his paws. The mosquito defeated the lion, blew its trumpet, sang a triumphant song and flew away, but it was stuck by the cobweb. When the mosquito was about to be eaten, he sighed that he had fought against the most powerful animal, but was destroyed by this little spider.

This story applies to those who have defeated the big ones but been defeated by the small ones.

 

Wear the well alone

"Lu Spring and Autumn"

The Ding clan of Song zhi, whose family has no well, often lives alone. and his family pierced the well, telling people: "I wear the well to be alone." Those who have heard it say: "The Ding clan wears the well alone." "The humanity of the country is heard of by Song Jun. Song Jun asked Ding. Ding said: "If you have one person, you have to have one person in the well." "If you hear this, you will not hear it.

 

excessive anxiety

"Liezi"

There are people in the country who are worried about the collapse of the heavens and the earth, and the people who are sent to die, and those who sleep and eat.

  And those who are worried about the other, because they know it in the past, say: "Heaven, accumulate qi and ears, and die in death." If you flex and stretch your breath, and stop walking in the sky all day long, why will you be worried?

  His people said: "Heavenly fruit accumulates qi, the sun, moon and stars, should not fall into the Lord?"

  He who knows: "The sun, the moon, and the stars, and those who have light in the qi, only make the fall, and cannot be slandered."

  He said, "What's wrong with Nadi?"

  He who knows: "The earth, the ears, the four voids, the dead blocks." If you stagger and stop walking on the ground all day long, why worry about the bad?

  Those who know are rejoicing, and those who know are also happy.
