A youngster went to visit an old wise man. He asked the wise man, "How can I become a person who can make myself and others happy?" The wise man looked at him and said. "My son, you're one in a thousand to have such an aspiration at this age. I give you four sentences. The first sentence is to regard you as others. Can you explain its meaning?
The youngster replied, " That is to say, when I feel distressed, regard myself as others, so that I will reduce the distress naturally; when I'm ecstatic , regard myself as others, the ecstasy will become placid."
The wise man nodded slightly and went on, " The second is to regard others as you."
The youngster thought for a while and said," In this way you may truly sympathize with others' misfortune, understand the others' requirements and give them proper help when they need."
The wise man's eyes glowing, he continued, "The third is to regard others as others."
The boy said." It means that we should fully respect each person's independence and can never infringe their core territory in any case."
The wise man laughed. " Very well. The fourth is to regard you as yourself. It is too hard for you to understand, so keep it for you to taste it slowly in future."
一位少年去拜訪一位年長的智者。他問智者:“我怎么才能成為一個既讓自己愉快也讓別人愉快的人呢?”智者看著他說:“孩子,在你這個年齡有這樣的愿望,已經(jīng)很難得了。我送你四句話。第一句話是,把自己當成別人。你能說說這句話的含義嗎?
少年回答說:“這句話是說,在我感到痛苦時,就把自己當成別人,這樣痛苦就自然減輕了;當我欣喜若狂時,把自己當成別人,那種狂喜也會變得平和?！?br />智者微微點頭,接著說:“第二句話,把別人當成自己?！?br />少年沉思一會兒,說:“這樣就可以真正同情別人的不幸,理解別人的需求,在別人需要時給予恰當?shù)膸椭?br />智者兩眼發(fā)光,繼續(xù)說道:“第三句話,把別人當成別人?！?br />少年說:“這句話是說,要充分尊重每個人的獨立性,在任何情況下都不可侵犯他人的核心領(lǐng)地?！?br />智者哈哈大笑說:“很好。第四句話是,把自己當成自己。這句話理解起來太難了,留著你以后慢慢品位吧。“
