Predestination

翻译：北京外国语大学北戴河外语培训基地副校长张宝丹

Many things in this world find neither an answer nor

a proper explanation. For example, why should two become

a couple among the billions of people on earth? Why don't

they love each other even though they live together

everyday, and yet one of them falls in love with someone

else at the first sight? Why do the members of a family

quarrel daily but still stay unhappily together? Why

can't they get married in spite of the fact that they are

a perfect match to each other? Why should one toil so

much for the other? Why should the love-infatuated always

be deserted by the heartless?.....

People remain puzzled in spite of their great effort

to understand the endless questions, so they invented the

all-embracing word---“predestination”. In order to be

more precise, different combinations were derived from

it: love predestination, sinful predestination, evil

predestination, and kind predestination etc., hence we

have the sayings like: “Predestination will definitely

bring you together despite the great distance while

without predestination, you'll never know each other even

though you are standing fact to face” “A distant couple

is tied up with the thread of predestination” and even

the phrases and expressions like “the god of marriage”,

“predestination without luck”, “luck without

predestination”, “Coming across each other is a kind of

predestination”, “Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow

road”, “They shall not marry each other unless they are

predestined lovers”. If people still can not find

answers, they turn to “reincarnation” for help. Lin

Daiyu is always in tears just for repaying for the water

Jia Baoyu had given her when she was a plant in her

previous life in A Dream of the Red Mansions .

In fact, the so-called “predestination” is often a

kind of coincidence or chance encounter, even a kind of

accident. If you don't meet this person, you'll surely

meet some one else. But people insist on adding some

colors of emotions or superstition, thus generating

various religious factions, the main theories of which

are no more than that of “reincarnation”, “heaven and

hell” and “the ever-lasting soul” etc.

But does anyone know anything about his previous life

or his after life? What could he do even if he knew them?

If he can't grasp the present life, what's the benefit of

commenting on the visionary after life? Giving up today

is the same as giving up tomorrow, for they are closely

connected. How absurd it is to work like the horse or

cattle in the present life in order to be above others in

the next life.

Have you ever seen emperor Qinshihuang reincarnate?

Have you ever heard of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty

going into another life? Where is now Monk Xuanzang of

the Tang Dynasty (What we know is the Big Wild Goose

Pagoda)? Where is the Monkey King (The Flower and Fruit

Mountain does exist, though)? And where can we find those

great emperors such as Yao , Shun Yu and the influential

philosophers like Confucius, Laozi and Zhuangzi? 123
