【You say…】 You say that you love rain, But you open your umbrella when it rains… You say that you love the sun, But you find a shadow spot when the sun shines… You say that you love the wind, But you close your windows when the wind blows... This is why I am afraid; You say that you love me too… —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【離騷版】 君樂雨兮啟傘枝, 君樂晝兮林蔽日, 君樂風兮欄帳起, 君樂吾兮吾心噬。
—— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【普通翻譯版】 你說你喜歡雨, 但是下雨的時候你卻撐開了傘; 你說你喜歡陽光, 但當陽光播撒的時候, 你卻躲在陰涼之地; 你說你喜歡風, 但清風撲面的時候, 你卻關上了窗戶。 我害怕你對我也是如此之愛。
【注】獅子林始建於元代至正二年,距今近700年。它並非私家園林,而是一座禪寺的後花園——高僧天如禪師惟則來蘇州,弟子為他建菩提正宗寺,又在寺後辟園以作禪修。惟則在天目山獅子岩修行,為紀念師傅中峰和尚得道之地,便將園子命名為“獅子林”。“獅子”取自佛經中“獅子座”之意,象徵佛法的威嚴與智慧。元末明初,禪寺衰落,獅子林漸轉為私園,先後歸倪瓚、黃興仁、貝潤生等人所有。1917年,貝潤生以9,900銀元購得,大規模整修,添建祠堂、住宅與族校,使獅子林兼具私園與公共園林的雙重性格。 獅子林最負盛名的是那片太湖石假山迷宮。石從湖底來,經千萬年沖刷溶蝕,瘦、漏、透、皺,千姿百態——有的如雄獅蹲踞,有的似幼獅嬉戲,據說可辨出500多尊。它們被堆疊成曲折盤旋的石陣,人入其中,忽高忽低,忽鑽洞忽跨橋,如入迷宮。乾隆六下江南,五次游此,還在圓明園和避暑山莊中各仿建了一座。園中水環亭錯,指柏軒、真趣亭、問梅閣、湖心亭、九曲橋,都與山石池水相合——真趣亭的匾額,還是御筆。 我穿過假山石洞的時候,忽然停下來。石縫裡漏進來一束光,落在一塊長了青苔的石頭上。700年前,那個叫惟則的和尚,是不是也曾站在這束光里?他想的大概不是石頭的形狀,而是透過石頭看到的東西——形狀會變,可那個“空”不會。我忽然明白,獅子林不是一座園子,是一次關於“放下”的練習。你走進去,在石縫裡低頭,在石洞中轉彎,出不來也不着急,因為它告訴你:路不是用來走完的,是用來走的。我坐在湖心亭,看水面上的石影和光斑一起晃動,覺得自己也被那些石頭輕輕鬆動了一下。不是改變了我,是它借那些漏光的縫隙,幫我看見了之前沒看見的東西。 2000年,獅子林被聯合國教科文組織列入《世界遺產名錄》。這座由太湖石構成的石獅王國,至今仍在蘇州城中,靜靜地訴說着700年的滄桑歲月。 Today in History(歷史上的今天):
