1. Translation of "Yuan Gu's Filial Piety and Honor" (原谷孝敬)

Translation: Yuan Gu had a grandfather who was getting old, and Yuan Gu's parents detested him and wanted to abandon him. Haratani, who was fifteen years old at the time, kindly advised his father, saying, "Grandfather had given birth to children and raised them, and had worked hard and thriftily all his life; how can there be any reason for a father to abandon his father when he grows old? This is against morality!" The father did not listen (to his advice) and made a wheelbarrow and abandoned his grandfather in the wilderness.

Harutani followed (the father) and took the cart back. The father asked, "Why did you take back this unlucky implement?" Harutani said, "In the future, when you are old, I will not need to make such implements, so I am putting them away for now." The father felt ashamed and regretted his behavior, and took his grandfather back to support him.

Original text: Yuan Gu had a grandfather who was old, and Gu's parents detested him and wanted to abandon him. When he was fifteen years old, he reminded his father, saying, "My ancestors raised their children and were diligent and thrifty all their lives, so how could they abandon them in their old age? This is also a negative justice." The father refused to obey and made a carriage to abandon his ancestor in the field. Gu followed, and collected the carriage and returned it. The father said, "Why did you collect this evil thing?" Gu said, "When my parents grow old, I don't need to make this tool, that's why I collected it." The father was ashamed and regretted, and then carried his ancestors back to his family.

Extended Information

I. Inspiration

Children must be filial to their parents, filial piety and respect for parents is a traditional virtue of the Chinese people. In the article, Yuan Gu first reasoned, then moved to feelings, and finally used his own wisdom to make his father repentance. We have to respect and filial piety of their parents, do not think they are old, then abandon them.

Second, the background

This is from the "Twenty-four Filial Piety", the full name of which is "The Selected Poems of Twenty-four Filial Piety of the Whole Phase" by Guo Juye. It is a book that tells the stories of twenty-four filial sons in ancient China, complete with drawings, with the main purpose of promoting feudal filial piety.

Appreciation

The role of filial piety in Chinese traditional culture is certainly not to be underestimated. The Twenty-four Pictures of Filial Piety, which were gradually accumulated after the Yuan Dynasty, have the overall good intention of teaching filial piety. There are just some specific examples that have changed over time. We have to understand that morality has a time limit.

Some of the examples I think should be able to find some other examples from ancient China to replace, but it advocates a spirit, this spirit of filial piety of our nation to promote again, for us to maintain the overall social order of the good and stability, I think it is still good.
