一位少年去拜访一位智者。他问智者:"我怎么才能成为一个既让自己愉快,又让他人愉快的人人呢?".智者看着他说:“孩子,在你这年龄有这样的愿望已经很了不起了。我送你四句话,第一句话把自己当成别人。你能说说这句话的含义么?
少年回答说:“这句话是说,在我感到痛苦是把自己当做别人,这样痛苦就自然减轻了;当我欣喜若狂时,把自己当成别人狂喜也会变得平和。“智者微微点点头,接着说:第二句话,把别人当成自己。”。
少年沉思了一会说:“这样就可以真正的同求别人,理解别人的需求,在别人需求时给予恰当的帮助。智者两眼发光继续说道:第三句话把别人当成别人。”少年说:"这句话是说,要充分尊重每个人的独立性,在任何情况下都不能侵犯别人的核心领地".智者哈哈大笑的说:"很好,第四句话是:把自己当成自己。这句话理解起来是在太难了。所以留着你以后慢慢品味吧.".
