地铁上读Kindle(1)
道德经读完了,我读的这个版本翻译的一般,但今天早上读到第48章和第50章的时候很喜欢它的解读方式。不是因为装逼非要读英文版,而是kindle商店里没有中文版,更别说带注释的了。况且英文版翻译的一定会非常简洁,读浓缩的东西比长篇大论有趣。
四十八章:
He who is devoted to learning strives to increase his knowledge everyday
He who is devoted to the Tao seeks to decrease his doing every day
He does less and less until there is nothing left to do
Once he has achieved non-action, there is nothing which he does not do
(为学日益,为道日损。损之又损,以至于无为。无为而无不为。)
五十章:
Men come upon the earth to live and die
Three in ten will follow life. Three in ten will follow death.
Three in ten will just pass through from birth to death, some barely here and others are born to disappear.
What is the reason for this? Because they live in their ego, not knowing their authentic self.
The man who is aware of the Tao and walk in the Tao knows his authentic self and lives life with the laws of nature without fear or concern.
In battle, he cannot be brought down by weapons. In conflict, he cannot be harmed by adverse actions
Not by a tiger or a rhinoceros can harm to him
How is this possible?
For death cannot enter him as he is above and beyond death
His life is eternal for he lives in the Tao
(出生入死。生之徒,十有三;死之徒,十有三;人之生,动之于死地,亦十有三。夫何故?以其生之厚。盖闻善摄生者,路行不遇兕虎,入军不被甲兵;兕无所投其角,虎无所用其爪,兵无所容其刃。夫何故?以其无死地。 )
