Qiu's Rhetoric（64）
Ma Xiaoqiu:Worship the heaven,Love the people
隨著中國傳統(tǒng)文化的悄然復(fù)蘇，敬天愛人，這個詞語常?？梢钥吹?。顧名思義，敬天就是對天要有敬畏之心，愛人就是對人要有善良慈悲之舉。
With the quiet recovery of traditional Chinese culture,we often see the term:"worship the heaven,Love the people".As the name implies,"worship the heaven"means having respect for the heaven,and"love the people"means having kindness and compassion for others.
在此，我們首先要明白天的含義。天是什么？天怎樣描述？有人能一語講清楚嗎？圣人老子告訴我們，天是道的產(chǎn)物，道不但生育天地，同時也推動了日月的運(yùn)行，滋養(yǎng)了萬物的生長。道的能量無窮之大，但我們只能看見道所產(chǎn)生的天地萬物，卻無法看見道的形象。天同樣也是如此，當(dāng)我們仰望天空，只能看到不斷變化的各種云彩，而天的形狀卻不得而知。但有一點(diǎn)我們可以知道，天地陰陽造化，生育了萬種事物，山川河流，草木叢林。天大，地大，人是天地所生，人也大。天地是人類的父母，敬天是我們的本分。
Here,we must first understand the meaning of the heaven.What is the heaven?How to describe the heaven?Can someone speak clearly?The sage Laozi tells us that the heaven is the product of Tao.Not only it gives the birth of the heaven and the earth,but it also promotes the operation of the sun and the moon,nourishing the growth of all things.The energy of the Tao is infinite,but we can only see the things that the Tao generated,but we cannot see the image of the Tao.The same is true for heaven.When we look up at the sky,we can only see the ever-changing clouds,but the shape of the heaven is unknown.However,one thing we can know is that the heaven and the earth are created by Yin and Yang,and there are tens of thousands of things,mountains and rivers,and grass,jungles and trees.The heaven and the earth are large and great,the people are born in the heaven and the earth,and the people are also great.The heaven and the earth are the parents of mankind.Respecting the heavens is our duty.
既然人類是天地的孩子，那相親相愛就是我們對天地的一份孝心。用善良慈悲對待每一個人很難做到，因?yàn)榉謩e心，讓我們對那些有恩于我們的人和那些可憐的人容易產(chǎn)生慈悲之心，但對那些傷害我們的人就很難慈悲以待。＂平等大悲＂是難以做到的。
Since humans are the children of the heaven and the earth,love for others is our filial piety to the heaven and the earth.Treating everyone with kindness and compassion is very difficult to do,because we have separation minds that we can be compassionate for those who are interested in us and those who are poor,but it is difficult for us to be merciful for those who harm us.It is difficult to achieve"Equality and great sadness".
平等之心，善待一切大眾，那是圣人的境界，那是大智慧的行為。敬天是本分，愛人是德行，此兩者是人類獲取福報的通行證。
The mind of equality is to kindly treat all people well.It is the realm of saints.It is the act of great wisdom.It is the duty of respecting the heavens,and the love is the virtue.These two are the pass for humans to obtain blessings.
