放生故事:尸體都應該被埋葬
DEAD BODIES ARE TO BE BURIED
尸體都應該被埋葬
Long， long ago in Xuancheng lived Yu Benshu， who never ever ate beef.
很久很久以前，在宣城，住著一個叫于本書（地名人名待議）的人，他從來都不吃牛肉。
One day Yu Benshu got sick. His doctor prescribed medicine to be taken with cow brain. When his friends heard about this， they gave Yu beef and cow brains for his medicine. Yu gave the brain to his servants to eat and took the medicine. He thought that this way he was not guilty of any crime against living creatures.
有一天，于本書病了。他的醫生給他開的藥方里有牛腦。當他的朋友們知道后，他們給于牛肉和牛腦當藥。于把牛腦給了他的仆人們吃，然后自己把藥吃了。他想這樣他就以為他就沒有冒犯任何生物。
One night he dreamed that a god dressed in splendid clothes scolded him，saying "You must eat beef. If you didn't， you wouldn't smell so foul."
有一天晚上，他夢到一個穿著華麗衣服的神仙責備他："你一定是吃了牛肉了。如果不是，你就不會那么難聞。"
Yu defended himself. "That's not true！ I never eat beef？'
于辯解道："不是阿！我從來沒吃過牛肉。"
The god had his attendant get out the official records and look up Yu's case. "You have not eaten any beef yourself， but because of your sickness you have broken universal commandments. Then you have given the dead body to your servants to eat. For this your life should be shortened.
神叫他的仆人把記錄拿來，查看于的案例。"你確實沒吃牛肉。但是因為你的疾病，你毀壞了宇宙的法則。你把牛肉給你的仆人吃。因此你的壽命要縮減。"
"However， you have a clean record， and display sincere regret. If you take part in no more killing， and advise others not to eat beef， you will be pardoned for the time being." Yu asked， "What should I do if someone gives me beef？"
"盡管如此，你之前的記錄是清白的，而且你表示了深切的歉意。如果你以后不再殺生，而且勸告別人不要吃牛肉，你將可以被寬恕。"于問，"如果別人給我牛肉，我該怎么辦？"
The god smiled. "Certainly you should know that dead bodies should be buried with proper respect. You can do many good deeds if you set your heart to it， and stick to it."
神仙笑了："你肯定知道，尸體應該得到體面的安葬。如果你用心而且堅持下去，你可以做很多好事。"
When Yu Benshu woke up， he knew it had been a dream， but what the god told him was so important， he wrote it down for everybody to read. Living creatures are not to be killed. Even if someone makes you a present of a piece of meat， remember that it is a dead body， and dead bodies are to be buried.
當于本書醒了以后，他知道他做了一個夢。但是神仙告訴他的事情是那么重要，他趕緊把它記下來，以便每個人都可以讀到。生命不應該被宰殺。如果有人送給你一塊肉，記得它是一個尸塊，而尸埠都應該得到埋葬。
