Translation: The same is the bait, and the same is the water of fishing

English translation: [the bite is the same, so as the water in the pool where we fish in].

Chinese translation: [The bait is the same, and the water for fishing is the same] means that the bait we fish with is the same, and the water in the fish pond is the same. The main purpose of this article is to express a rule of "doing nothing and doing something", that is, when we do things, we should not be too eager for quick success, the first thing to do is to focus on ourselves.

The entire translation is as follows:

I once walked by the side of the river, and I saw two old men squatting on the rocks to fish, and the old man caught the most fish, and he caught them very easily. Old man B didn't get anything all day. (b) Then he threw down the fishing rod and asked A:

We use the same bait for fishing, and we fish in the same stream, so why is there such a big difference? A said, "When I started to take the bait, I only thought of myself, but I didn't know that there was a fish, my eyes didn't blink, my expression didn't change, the fish forgot that there was me, so it was easy to get hooked, you thought about the fish, your eyes were staring at the fish, and as soon as your demeanor changed, the fish was scared away, how could you catch a fish?"

Old man B did as he taught, and caught a few fish in a row. I exclaimed, "How good, the fulfillment of wishes lies in mastering the law!" ”

The same is true for fishing, which means that the water (or water) for fishing is also the same;

What's the difference between gain and loss? The meaning is: why is there such a big difference in the results of our fishing?

食" means "to eat", the first "of" refers to "of", "also" refers to "also", and the second "of" is an demonstrative pronoun that refers to the results of fishing.

Cook and bait: fry it (referring to Poria cocos) and take it.

ps: "Cooking and bait" is from Liu Zongyuan's "Discerning the Divine Text": "Tomorrow, buy the market, cook and bait, and the illness will be worse."

The general content of "Distinguishing the Divine Text" is that the author (Liu Zongyuan) was sick, and according to the doctor's instructions, he went to the market to buy Poria cocos and came back to decoction medicine, but he bought a fake, which caused the author's emotion. "Cooking and bait" is to fry Poria cocos (fake) and take it, and "bait" is a noun as a verb here, which means to eat and take.
