双语道德经第五十章

【双语道德经 第五十章】 The Bilingual  TAO TE CHING, Chapter 50   著者：（春秋）Lao Tse老子 译者：（英）James Legge（詹姆斯.理雅各）,1891年. The Bilingual  TAO TE CHING　von　Lao Tse. English interpretation by James Legge, 1891.   【古文】 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，生之厚。 盖闻善摄生者，陆行不遇凶虎，入军不被甲兵。 凶无所投其角。虎无所用其爪。 兵无所容其刃。夫何故？以其无死地。   【英文】    Men come forth and live ; they enter ( again ) and die .    Of every ten three are ministers of life ( to themselves ) ; and three are ministers of death .    There are also three in every ten whose aim is to live , but whose movements rend to the land ( or place ) of death . And for what reason ? Because of their excessive endeavours to perpetuate life .    But I have heard that he who is skilful in managing the life entrusted to him for a time travels on the land without having to shun rhinoceros or tiger , and enters a host without having to avoid buff coat or sharp weapon . The rhinoceros finds no place in him into which to thrust its horn , nor the tiger a place in which to fix its claws , nor the weapon a place to admit its point . And for what reason ? Because there is in him no place of death .   【今译】 人从一出生就进入了走向死亡的道路。这其中，活着的这一类人，大约十有其三；已死亡的这一类人，大约十有其三；自然寿命应该更长却因为自己擅为而死亡的，大约十有其三。这是什么缘故呢？因为他们过度重视能活着以致无不用其极。据说，善于养护自己生命的人，在陆地上行走，不会遇到凶恶的犀牛和猛虎，在战争中也受不到兵器的伤害。犀牛对他无处投角，老虎对他无处伸爪，兵器对他无处用锋刃。为什么会这样呢？因为他身上没有可以致死的地方。       Xichang Academy 袭常书院   The MISSION使命： Integrating Chinese and Western Culture and Inheriting Chinese wisdom 融会中西文化，传承中国智慧                                               The SCHOOL MOTTO校训： Fortitude, Stability and Salience.
