In the Tang Dynasty, there was a Guanyin ***Avalokitesvara*** Temple on the Southern Mountainof Hengshan.
唐朝時，南嶽衡山上有一座觀音廟，
The temple was stately and solemn, with incense *** oke curling all around.
廟宇庄嚴，香火繚繞。
One day, the eminent Monk Huai Rang of the Chan sect strolled into the temple hall and sawMonk Ma Zu sitting calm and upright on a rush cushion,
有一天，禪宗高僧懷讓踱進佛殿，一眼看到馬祖和尚正端坐在蒲團上，
with his palms put together and his eyes closed in deep meditation.

Knowing that Ma Zu aspired to bee a Buddha, Huai Rang *** iled to himself.
懷讓知道馬祖一心想成佛，暗自好笑。
He picked up a brick at random, squatted on his heels and began to grind it noisily.
他隨手揀來一塊青磚，蹲在地上嘩啦嘩啦地磨了起來。
Ma Zu was vexed by the noise. He opened his eyes to find that it was his own master grinding abrick. He asked:
馬祖聽得心煩，睜眼一看，原來是自己的師傅在磨磚。馬祖問:
「Master, what are you doing?」
「師傅，你在做什麼?」
Huai Rang replied:
懷讓回答:
「I am grinding the brick to make a mirror.」
「磨磚做鏡。」
Ma Zu laughed and said:
馬祖笑著說:
「Can a brick be ground into a mirror?」
「難道磚頭也能磨成鏡子嗎?」
「If a brick cannot be ground into a mirror,」replied Huai Rang, 「then can you bee a Buddhaby sitting in deep meditation?」

Ma Zu was rather displeased, and said:
馬祖很不高興，說:
「What do you mean?」
「你這是什麼意思?」
Huai Rang explained:
懷讓解釋說:
「For example, an ox pulls a cart, but the cart doesn』t move. Now, you say, should you whipthe ox or push the cart?」
「打個比方說，牛拉車，車不動。你說，應該打牛還是推車?」
Ma Zu hummed and hawed but couldn』t answer.
馬祖支支吾吾答不上來。
At this moment, Huai Rang said to him seriously:
這時候，懷讓認真地對他說:
「You learn to sit in meditation in order to bee a Buddha.
「你學坐禪是為了成佛，
In fact,it relies on wisdom and prehension of the mind to bee one,not at all on sitting.
其實，成佛靠的是心靈的穎悟，根本不是坐著能解決的。」
「As for a Buddha, he has no fixed appearance, so the mind cannot fix on any single object.
「而佛呢，沒有固定的相貌，所以心不能停留在任何一種事物上。
If you try to learn Buddhi *** by sitting in meditation, that would amount to throttling aBuddha.
你想坐禪學佛，也就是殺佛。
If you obstinately dwell on external appearance, you will never prehend the real Buddhistdoctrine.」
你固執著外相，就永遠不能領悟到真正的佛理。」

英語寓言故事短文篇二
A Woodman came into a forest to ask the Trees to give him a handle for Ax. It seemed so modest a request that the principal tree at once agreed to it, and it was settled among them that the plain, homely Ash should furnish what was wanted.

中文譯文：

簡短英語寓言故事篇1
詢樓捕蟬
One day, Confucius led his disciples to the State of Chu. When crossing a stretch of forest, they saw a hunchbacked old man standing under a tree, catching cicadas with a bamboo stick. With each stroke he caught one cicada, just as easily as picking it up at will. Confucius asked: "You are very skillful at catching cicadas. You must have followed some pattern."
"That's right!”the old man answered. "The cicada is a clever little insect. It would fly away at themere rustling of leaves in the wind. Therefore, to catch cicadas, one must, first of all, train one's hand to hold the bamboo stick without shaking. When 2 pellets are put on the top of the bamboo stick and do not fall off, one has certain assurance in catching cicadas; when 3 pellets are put there and do not fall off, only one cicada out of ten can manage to escape; when 5 pellets are put there and do not fall off, then catching cicadas is as easy as picking them up at will."
He then added: "But that is not enough. One must be good at hiding oneself. Now I am standing under a tree, just like half of a tree stump, with my arm stretching out like part of awithered twig. Last of all, one must be attentive. When I am catching cicadas, I don't think at all of the vastness of the universe, nor do I look at the numerous things around. I only see the two wings of the cicada. No matter what happens, nothing will distract my attention. As I manage to accomplish all these, I can be so skillful at catching cicadas."
Hearing this, Confucius turned to his disciples and said: "Whatever you do, only when youpersevere with concentrated attention and devotion, can you achieve the acme of perfection. This is the truth that this hunchbacked old man has taught us."
一天，孔子帶著弟子去楚國。穿過一片樹林的時候，他們看到一位駝背老人站在樹下，手拿竹竿捕蟬，一粘一隻，就像隨手拾來一樣容易。孔子問：“您捕蟬捕得這么熟練，一定掌握了什麼規律吧?”
老人回答說：“是啊!蟬是一種非常乖巧的小蟲。一有風吹草動，它就飛掉了，所以要捕蟬，首先要練得手拿竹竿不晃動。一直練到在竹竿頂端放兩顆彈丸不掉下來的時候，捕蟬就有了一定的把握;當放三顆彈丸不掉下來的時候，捕十隻蟬只會逃走一隻;當放五顆彈丸不掉下來的時候，捕蟬就像隨手拾取一樣容易了。”
又說：“不過，這還不夠，還必須善於隱蔽自己。我現在站在樹下，就像是半截子樹樁;伸出去的手臂，就像是一段枯萎的樹枝。最後，還必須用心專一。我捕蟬時，根本不想天地多麼廣大，也不看眾多萬物，只看見蟬的兩只翅膀，不管發生什麼情況，都不會分散我的注意力。因為我能夠做到這些，所以捕蟬才會這樣熟練。”
孔子聽了，回頭對他的弟子說：“無論做什麼事情，只有鍥而不舍，專心致志，才能達到這樣出神人化的境界。這就是這位駝背老人告訴我們的道理。”
簡短英語寓言故事篇2
意怠免患
According to legend, there was a kind of birds called "dais" (swallow) on the East China Sea.
The Yidais were slow in reaction. They could not fly very high and seemed clumsy andincapable.
But when they moved about, they always moved in groups, depended on one another for survival, and flew and landed together.
When they advanced, no one dared to advance rashly. When they retreated, no one dared to fall behind at will. When they fed, no one dared to scramble to be the first. All their activities were orderly.
When they went into action,萬 dais always acted uniformly without any disorder. They depended upon the collective efforts to avoid any harm from the outside world.
傳說，東海上有一種叫做“意怠”的鳥。
意怠反應比較遲鈍，不能高飛，似乎笨拙無能。
但是，它們行動的時候，總是成群結隊，相依為命，一起飛翔，一起降落。
它們前進的時候，沒有一隻敢擅自冒進;後退的時候，沒有一隻敢隨便掉隊;吃食的時候，也沒有一隻敢搶先。一切活動，都很有秩序。
意怠行動起來總是這樣一致而不散亂，它們就是靠著集體的力量來避免外界對自己的傷害。

鯽魚求救
Zhuang Zhou's family was poor. Once, he went to the official who supervised rivers to borrow some grain. The official said: "Well, wait until the end of the year when I collect the taxes from the people, then I will lend you 300 gold pieces. All right?"
When Zhuang Zhou heard this, he was so angry that the colow of his face changed. But he told the official this story: When I came here yesterday, on the way I heard a voice calling 'Help!' I turned my head and saw a small crucian carp in the dried-up carriage ditch."
I went over and asked: "Little crucian carp, why are you calling for help?"
The little crucian carp answered: "I am a subject of the Dragon King of the East China Sea. Unfortunately I fell down here. Can you give me a little water to save my life?"
I said: "All right, I am just going to the south to sell ideas to the kings of the States of Wu and Yue. I will ask them to stir up the water of the Xijiang River to welcome you. Will that do?"
When the crucian carp heard this, it got angry and said: "When I lose the water which is always with me, I cannot survive. Now, I want only a little bit of water so that I can survive.Yet you say such things. Then you'd better go to the salt-fish shop to look for me."
莊周家境貧窮。一次，他去監河侯那裡借糧食，監河侯說：“好吧!等到年底，我收到了老百姓的稅金時，就借給你三百金，行嗎?”
莊周一聽，氣得臉色都變了，但是他卻對監河侯講了這樣一件事情：我昨天來時，半路上聽到‘救命’的呼喊聲。我回過頭來，看見乾涸的車溝里有條小螂魚。
我走過去，問它： “小娜魚，你為什麼喊救命?”
小鯉魚回答說：“我是東海龍王的臣子，不幸落到這里。您能夠給我一些水來救我活命嗎?”
我說：“好吧!我正好要去南方游說吳國和越國的國王，那我就請他們激起西江的大水來迎接您，可以嗎?”
卿魚聽了，氣得不得了，說：“我失去了常跟我在一起的水，就無法生存下去了。現在，我只要得到一些水，就能夠生存下去;你卻說出這樣的話。好吧，你不如趁早到咸魚店裡去找我吧!”
