Forty-Eight Questions on Abstaining from Killing (戒殺四十八問)


釋古聖教殺之疑(二問)
客曰。伏羲制網𮊁。以佃以漁。然則伏羲非與。
答曰。洪荒之世。鳥獸繁殖。不為之防。人受其害。伏羲或教民禦之。而未明言食之也。若謂教民殺生。吾恐漁舟無賴。皆為伏羲功臣。而解網縱禽。饋魚使畜。諸聖賢。反開罪不淺矣。
客曰。孔子戒殺。不過不綱。不射宿耳。未嘗廢釣弋也。若并戒之。則仲尼不足法與。
答曰。此葢極言聖人愛物之仁耳。以記事之書法而論。釣者。所以引其不綱。弋者。所以引其不射宿。非謂聖人真釣弋也。若謂因養與祭而釣弋。豈孔子疏食飲水之風。並非真樂。蔬食菜羮之祭。盡屬虗言乎。甚矣。測聖人者亦淺矣。
