Filial Piety Leads to a Miracle

孟宗哭竹生筍

作者:Zheng Jian;編譯:Dora Li,Cindy Zhan,Livi Cheng

孟宗是三國時期吳國的重臣。他自小就非常孝順。有一年冬天,孟宗的母親生病了。她沒有胃口,連續幾天不想吃飯。孟宗見此情景,非常擔心。他對母親說:「媽媽,無論您想吃什麽,我都會給您做。」

他的母親用微弱的聲音說:「我想吃我們屋後山上鮮美的竹筍。」

孟宗驚呆了,因為當時是冬天,根本沒有竹筍。「我該怎麼辦?」他問自己。

孟宗沒了主意,信步走到屋後的山坡上。他站在那裡,嘆了口氣。想到母親躺在床上的難受樣子,他扶著一棵竹子,大聲哭了起來。孟宗的孝心感動了天地。沒過多久,太陽升起,明亮溫暖的陽光融化了積雪。這時,傳來一陣土崩瓦解的聲音,地縫中露出幾根鮮嫩的竹筍。孟宗非常高興,立即摘了一些。他跑回家,煮了一碗竹筍,用勺子餵給母親吃。吃完竹筍後,他的母親奇跡般地康復了。

當時的人們認為竹筍只在春天生長,因為竹筍在土壤上方可見,很容易被挖出來。在孟宗哭竹之後,人們發現,竹筍在土壤深處生長,在冬天也可以找到。

而孟宗哭竹生筍的故事,也在《二十四孝》中成為至孝的傳說,流傳至今。

I have seen the Shen yun dancers twice and they are beyond beautiful. I love the story and know in my heart that LOVE is the only way to peace and happiness. God bless in your mission of peace and love

Knowing that she lost her appetite and could not eat he still offered to cook for her.
Knowing that the bamboo shoots do not grow in winter he still went to look for them.
He allowed through his heart that the problem can be solved.
And it did.
Thank you for sharing this lovely story.

This miracle is the Goodness of Humanity which is always here to reveal its Basic Goodness/Kindness. Not just being moved by filial piety but the pure essence of this very act. This actual reality is closer & profound than we can ever conceive; It is one of the underlying principles of the Universe that manifest when conditions are right…………
