《恣蚊飽血》講述了一個孝子在蚊蟲肆虐的時候，怎樣不讓親人遭受蚊蟲之害。這是《二十四孝》中的第十七則故事。 吳猛是晉朝豫章（今江西南昌人）。從小就非常孝順父母。吳猛家裏很貧窮，牀塌上沒有蚊帳。南方蚊子多，每到夏天，又大又黑的蚊子咬得一家人睡不好覺。 八歲的吳猛心疼勞累了一天的父母，為了讓他們睡個踏實覺，他想了一個辦法。每到晚上，吳猛就赤身睡在父母身旁。小孩子家細皮嫩肉的，蚊子都集聚在他身上，且越聚越多。吳猛卻任蚊子叮咬吸血，一點也不驅趕。 吳猛認為蚊子吸飽了自己身上的血，便不會去叮咬父母，八歲孩童的這種想法真是可笑，卻讓人笑不出來。雖然其法不可取，但只有對父母愛到極點，才會有“痴傻”的行為，這是一顆多麼純淨的童心啊！ 從一個孩童的心靈表現出人性的純真一面，即是孝，這種骨肉之情的孝，是人類最基本的情感。 今天的兒童聽了此則故事，可能馬上會反駁吳猛的做法，甚至嘲笑他的愚蠢 。現今的孩子確實見多識廣，眼界開闊，根本不是古代的那些兒童可比的。但是孩子們天性中的孝之本性，我們注意引導、培養了嗎？我們是否可以從表面上的不成邏輯卻深合人性邏輯的行為中，攝取其中孝文化的精華來滋養孩子的心靈呢？ A man worked in the fields from morning to evening. Soon, he went back, finding his little boy welcoming him home. “Father is back, Father is back!” he cried with joy. “Come, dear … Continue reading →

中華德育故事- 懷橘遺親 陸績六歲時，曾隨其父到九江袁術那裏去做客。袁術拿出橘子來招待他們。 懷桔遺親雕塑和圖碑等 懷桔遺親雕塑和圖碑等(6張) 陸績將三隻橘子揣藏起來，等到告別跪拜的時候，橘子掉在了地上。袁術便開玩笑，説： 陸家小兒郎作賓客，還要懷揣橘子嗎？陸績跪下，回答説： 吾母生性最愛橘子，想要留給母親。袁術對他的機警和孝心大感驚奇。後人有詩為頌，意思是：孝順皆是出於天性，比如人間的六歲兒童就是這樣。懷藏橘子留給母親，這也堪稱奇事了。 《二十四孝》中有幾則是講述孩子的孝行的，這一維度的故事突出一個主題，那就是愛父母是一種天性，是自然而然的人性。其次，這也迴應了《孝經·開宗明義章第一》： 夫孝，始於事親，中於事君，終於立身。 在人生的第一階段，即在一個人兒童的時候，就可以懂得孝順雙親。 A boy stood writing as his father entered the room,” Child, let us go and visit Captain Yuan.” The boy replied,” Yes, Father. Let me go and tell Mother!” … Continue reading →
