Original text and notes:

In the past, there were great elders and sons, and all the merchants went into the sea to collect treasures.

This elder is good at reciting the method of going into the sea to catch a boat (catching a boat: steering, driving a boat), and if you enter the sea water to whirlpool and flow rocks (rocks: rocks or rocky beaches in the water), you should be like this (if it is

So, so) catch, if it is right, if it is lived. The people said: "The method of entering the sea, I know (Xi:

All) knows. ”

The people have heard it and are convinced.

After a short time of being in the middle of the sea, the sailor fell ill and died suddenly. The elder is even on his behalf.

In the middle of the migratory stream (current: rapids, turbulent current), singing (singing: aloud, reciting aloud) should be caught, such is right. The wheel of the ship rotates back and forth, and it cannot move forward, as far as the treasure is reached. The ship-merchant died without drowning.

reciting the method of taking a boat without understanding the use of metaphors" is the Indian version of "talking on paper"; The translation is as follows:

Once upon a time, there was the son of a wealthy old man who went to sea with many merchants to mine treasure.

The old man's son was good at reciting the methods of sailing on the sea, such as entering a place where there are whirlpools in the sea or rocky rapids, and one should steer the ship in this way, straighten the hull in this way, or stop the boat in this way (these methods are described in the book).And he said unto the multitude:"I know all the ways to sail on the sea.

And when they heard it, they believed what he said.

He had already entered the sea, and after not long traveling, the captain (the master of the boat) fell ill and died suddenly. The old man's son immediately took his place.

When the boat came to the place where there was a whirlpool, he recited aloud that he should steer the boat in this way, and that he should straighten the hull in this way, but the boat went back and forth with the whirlpool, and could not go forward to reach the place where there was a treasure. The whole ship's merchants sank into the sea and drowned.

Reciting the method of boating without understanding the metaphor.

From the fourth volume of the Book of Hundred Parables.

In the past, there were great elders, and all merchants went into the sea to collect treasures. This elder son is good at reciting the method of catching boats into the sea, if you enter the sea water whirlpool and the rocky place, you should catch it, if it is right, if it is staying, and everyone says: "I know the way to enter the sea."

The people heard it and believed it. After a short time in the middle of the sea, the shipwreck fell ill and died suddenly. The elder is even on his behalf.

In the midst of the turbulent current, he sang: "When it is caught, it is right." The wheel of the ship rotates back and forth, and it cannot move forward, as far as the treasure is reached.

The ship-lifting merchant died without water. Ordinary people are also the same, practicing less Zen Buddhism, counting their breaths in peace, and contemplating impurities. Although the text is recited, the meaning is not understood.

I don't know how to do it. He talked about himself and understood the Zen method in vain, so that the predecessors were confused and lost their hearts, and they were wrong about the Dharma, and they were tired all year round and had nothing to gain. like a fool, so that he has no sea.

Once upon a time there was the son of a virtuous old man who went out into the sea with some merchants to collect treasures. The son of this virtuous old man was adept at reciting the method of driving a ship into the sea, and if the ship was in the middle of the sea to a place with whirlpools, backflows, or reefs, it should be driven like this, correct the direction like this, and dock like this. And he told them all:

I know all the ways to sail a boat into the sea. Everyone believed him. Not long after the ship had sailed to the sea, the master of the boat fell ill and died suddenly, and the son of a virtuous old man drove the boat in place of the dead master of the boat.

When the boat sailed into the swirling rapids, he recited aloud how to steer and how to correct the direction. However, the ship was swirling in a whirlpool, unable to continue to reach the place where the treasure was collected. Eventually, the shipwrights of merchants fell overboard and died.

Right... Saying place all a typical paperwork (and) many merchants went to sea to mine for treasure.

The death of the Fan family, the people have a Zhong who wants to go away, and the Zhong is too big to bear. With the destruction of the vertebrae, the bell has a sound. Fear that people will hear about it and take away their own ears, and cover their ears.

In the past, there was a son of a rich man (or a Dawang family, a famous family, etc.) ,..All the merchants on the ship drowned.

As a result, he was the only one who survived, and there was a turtle, and the turtle carried him to an island, and he had nothing to eat, so he slaughtered the turtle and ate it. Finally, a herd of wild elephants came, and he ran to the edge of the cliff, fell into the sea, and drowned.

This is the story of ingratitude.
