放生故事之一: 放生池
1. 放生池
the free life pond
浙江天臺山的山峰是青黛色的,猶如豎起的畫屏。遠客紛沓而至,觀其美景。
the peaks of tiantai mountain in zhejiang are green and black. they stand like an ornamental screen. people come from far away to enjoy the scenery here.
幾千年來,這些秀麗的山峰上都建有許多的寺廟。有一個大廟的主持名叫智顗,約生活在公元539-597年間。因為他的智慧,隋煬帝賜封他為智者大師,這個名字至今仍為人們所知。
for thousands of years, there have been many temples in these beautiful mountains. the head of a big temple there was called zhiyi. he lived from about 539 to 597 ad. because he was so wise, the emperor yang of the sui dynasty gave him the title the wise master, and this is how he is known even today.
當時,智者大師覺得時下之人過于殘忍,尤其是滿足口腹之欲時。他們可以殺掉任何活物,然后吃掉。
