Loving Thy Enemy

A man died, and he went to hell. And the King of Hades

received him in front of his throne, together with another

person, and he said, “You, Mr. Johnson, you owe this

person, Madame Smith, so much money but you haven’t

paid it back. So she’s suing you because you didn’t pay

her back. But I don’t think you can ever pay her back if you

come back the next life as a human again since you don’t

have any merit in your account and you are not going to

have any money at all again in the next lifetime. So,

I am going to make you become a horse or maybe a buffalo

so that you can work all your life. You can pull the cart

and keep carrying her all your life until you repay your debt.

Maybe it will spill over into the next life even.”

The man, the money-owing person, said, “Oh, King,

maybe that’s not a good idea. Even if I become a horse

or buffalo or a dog or whatever, I will never be able to

pay it off to her. So, why don’t you make me become her

father, and I will pay my whole lifetime?” “From her date

of birth, I will keep paying, paying and paying.” In that

case, he will be paying very willingly, because he will

love his daughter or son, whoever that might be or

however she might have reincarnated. And in that case,

whatever she wants, he will give, willingly, lovingly,

and even proudly: “Yes, that’s my daughter. I paid a

hundred thousand dollars for her to go to college.

Look at what she is now. I’m still paying for her apartment.

She wants a helicopter, and I’m going to get it for her.”

So, that is really similar to “Love thy enemy”!

You must love them now or else you’ll have to

come back and love them even more.

爱你的敌人

有一个人死后下地狱，阎罗王在王座前审判他和另一个人。阎罗王

说︰「强森先生，你欠这位史密斯夫人这么多钱，但却没有还钱，

所以她控告你。不过就算你下辈子再来当人，我认为你也无法还钱，

因为你没有任何功德，下辈子也会一贫如洗，所以我要让你变成

一匹马或一只水牛，这样你就可以工作一辈子。你可以拉车载她

一辈子，直到还清债务为止，说不定还会牵连到下下辈子。」

这个欠钱的人说︰「阎罗王，这样也许不是个好主意。

即使我变成马、牛、狗等等，我还是无法把债务还清。所以何不干脆

把我变成她的父亲，我就会整个辈子卖命还债，从她出生开始，

我就会一直不停地还！」在这种情况下，他会非常心甘情愿地还，

因为不管她转世为男的或女的，或是任何模样，他都会疼爱自己

的儿女。而且在这种情况下，不管她要什么，他都会很乐意又有

爱心地给，甚至还会自豪地说︰「她是我的女儿，我付十万美元

让她上大学，看看她现在的成就！我还在帮她付房租。她想要

一架直升机，我也要想办法买给她。」这样确实跟「爱你的敌人」

没有两样了。所以你现在就必须爱他们，否则下辈子还要再回来，

付出更多爱心给他们。
