[English translation] Sigh at the sea
Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a river god in the Yellow River. People called him Hebo. Hebo stood on the bank of the Yellow River. Looking at the rolling waves coming from the west and rushing eastward, I said excitedly; "The Yellow River is so big that no river in the world can compare with it. I am the biggest water god! "
Someone told him, "What you said is wrong. There is a place called Beihai in the east of the Yellow River. That's really big. "
Herb said, "I don't believe it. No matter how big the North Sea is, can it be bigger than the Yellow River? "
The man said: "Don't mention a Yellow River, even if several Yellow Rivers flow into the North Sea, they are not satisfied."
Hebo stubbornly said, "I have never seen the North Sea. I don't believe it. "
The man was helpless and said to him, "You will understand what I am talking about when you have a chance to see the North Sea."
Autumn is coming, and the torrential rains for several days have caused large and small rivers to flood into the Yellow River. The surface of the Yellow River is wider. Looking across the river, you can't tell the cattle and horses on the other side. As a result, Hebo is even more proud that all the most spectacular scenery in the world is in his own place. When he was having fun, he remembered Beihai, which was told by others, so he decided to visit there.
Hebo came down the river to the Yellow River estuary, and suddenly his eyes lit up. Poseidon Beihai is welcoming him with a big smile. Hebo looked around and saw the Wang Yang in the North Sea, which was boundless. He watched it for a while and said to Beihai Ruo with deep feelings: "As the saying goes, if you only know some truth, you think no one can compare with yourself. This is me. " Today, if I hadn't seen the vast North Sea with my own eyes, I would have thought the Yellow River was chinese odyssey! In that case, people who know what to do will laugh at the Lord forever.

Mourn your own smallness in front of the vast sea-bemoan your own smallness in front of great things
Yes, Hebo enjoys himself and takes the beauty of the world as his own. Follow the current to the east. As for the North Sea, looking eastward, there is no water end. So why, Hebo began to turn (turn, turn) his face, looked at the ocean, and sighed: "As the saying goes,' I know its ignorance', which I call it. If I hear less (think ... less) about Zhong Ni and despise (think ... lightly) the meaning of Bo Yi, I will believe it; Today, I saw that my son was poor. If I am not at my son's door, I will be in danger. My long-term (passive, equivalent to "quilt") smiles at a generous family (a person with high cultivation and understanding). "
Beihai Ruo said, "You can't talk to people in the sea, but stay in the air." Summer insects can't talk to ice or time; Qu's family can't talk to Taoists, but can only be tied to religion. Now that I'm out of the cliff and looking at the sea, I know I'm ugly, and I'm sure I can have a heart-to-heart talk with Dali. The water in the world is bigger than the sea, and Wan Chuan belongs to it. I wonder when it will stop. I don't know when it is empty; Spring is the same as autumn. We don't know about floods and droughts. This is the flow of the river, which cannot be measured. However, I have never been self-sufficient, because I am heaven and earth, and Yin and Yang suffer indignities. I am between heaven and earth, and Xiao Mu is among the mountains. I almost see less square inches, and I laugh at myself! It's not as empty as osawa. China is in the sea, unlike the rice in the warehouse? Tens of thousands of things, people are at a loss; People die in Kyushu, grains are born, boats and cars are connected, and people are there; This is more important than anything else, unlike the end of luxury goods lies in the horse? The connection between the five emperors, the dispute between the three kings, the concern of people with lofty ideals, the works of any literati, all this! The words of Boyi are named, and the words of Zhongni are rich and self-sufficient; Don't you want to be more important than water? "-"Zhuangzi Qiushui "
Autumn comes as scheduled, thousands of rivers flow into the Yellow River, and floods have been flowing away. Look at the cliffs on both sides, you can't tell the shape of cattle and horses. As a result, Hebo (the God of the Yellow River) got carried away, thinking that all the beautiful scenery in the world was in his own place. He followed the current eastward to the North Sea (now the Bohai Sea). He looked east, but he couldn't see the end of the current. Therefore, Hebo changed his attitude, looked up blankly at Beihai Ruo (the God of Beihai) and said with emotion: "As the saying goes,' I think I know a lot of things, and no one can catch up with me'." That is me. Besides, I heard that some people belittle Zhong Ni's knowledge and Boyi's integrity. At first, I didn't believe it. Now I see your vastness. How dangerous it will be if I don't come to your door. I am always laughed at by knowledgeable people. "
Beihai Ruo said: "The frog at the bottom of the well can't talk to it about the size of the sea because it is limited by the narrow living environment;" Insects in summer can't talk to them about winter ice because they are limited by climate and season; A monk with shallow knowledge cannot talk to him about the truth because of his narrow education. Now that you have walked out of the water cliff and seen the vast sea, you will know your meanness, and you can tell me the truth. Of all the waters in the world, there is nothing bigger than the sea. Thousands of streams pour into the sea and don't know when they will stop until they overflow. From the tail, I don't know when it will run out. Whether it is spring or autumn, the sea never changes; Whether it is drought or flood, the sea will never feel. This is where the sea is superior to rivers and streams. Sea water can't be calculated by capacity, but I have never boasted about it. I think my body is the same as heaven and earth, and my spirit is influenced by yin and yang. I am between heaven and earth, just like a small stone and a small tree on Mount Tai. I feel small. How can I be arrogant? Please think about it. Isn't the four seas in the world like a small stone immersed in a big lake? The whole of China is within the four seas, isn't it like a grain of polished rice in Taicang? There are thousands of things in the world, and people are just one of them. Kyushu is a big country, where many people live and grow a lot of food, and there are many boats, boats, cars and horses. People are just one of them. Compared with all things, isn't man just a hair on a horse? These are what the three kings and five emperors in ancient times wanted to inherit and work hard, what the Confucian scholars who talked about benevolence and righteousness were worried about, and what the Mohist scholars who talked about practical work worked hard. But Boyi refused to accept his resignation in the name of saving righteousness. Zhong Ni kept talking to show that he was well informed. This is their boasting, isn't it just like you boasting about its water? "

Idiom Legend [Back to Directory] Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a river god in the Yellow River, and people called him Hebo. Hebo stood on the bank of the Yellow River. Looking at the rolling waves coming from the west and rushing eastward, I said excitedly; "The Yellow River is so big that no river in the world can compare with it. I am the biggest water god! "
The sea told him, "What you said is wrong. There is a place called Beihai in the east of the Yellow River. That's really big. " Herb said, "I don't believe it. No matter how big the North Sea is, can it be bigger than the Yellow River? "
The sea said, "Don't say one Yellow River, even if several Yellow Rivers flow into the North Sea, you can't be satisfied with it!" " "
Hebo stubbornly said, "I have never seen the North Sea. I don't believe it. "
The sea was helpless and said to him, "If you have a chance to go to my North Sea, you will understand what I said."
Autumn is coming, and the torrential rains for several days have caused large and small rivers to flood into the Yellow River. The surface of the Yellow River is wider. Looking across the river, you can't tell the cattle and horses on the other side. As a result, Hebo is even more proud that all the most spectacular scenery in the world is in his own place. When he was having fun, he remembered Beihai, which was told by others, so he decided to visit there.
Hebo came down the river to the Yellow River estuary, and suddenly his eyes lit up. Poseidon Beihai Ruo welcomed him with a bright smile. Hebo looked around and saw the Wang Yang in the North Sea, which was boundless and endless. After watching it for a while, he said to Beihai Ruo with deep feelings: "As the saying goes, if you only know some truth, you think no one can compare with yourself. This is me. " Today, if I hadn't seen the vast North Sea with my own eyes, I would have thought the Yellow River was chinese odyssey! In that case, wouldn't it be laughed at by knowledgeable people forever, haha! "
The idiom means [back to the directory]. In fact, this allusion is meaningful. Every fable written by Zhuangzi is the essence of Zhuangzi's thought. This fable is to tell us not to be arrogant, let alone aim too high. You know, there are people outside, and there are days behind!
