Well known (he is famous and respected by all(眾望所歸)
In the Western Jin Dynasty of China, there
was a famous monk whose name was (Boyuan).
History books record the story of his life.
He is very smart and he works hard.
He carefully studied the teachings of
Buddhism, and he also read many classic books that have nothing to do with
Buddhism.
He was respected by many, and he was
attended by thousands of people every time he lectured.
The Western Jin Dynasty was a short-lived
dynasty that lasted only 51 years.
At that time, the situation in China was
very chaotic, and all parts of China were controlled by many warlords.
The central government cannot control these
local factions.
As the situation became more and more
chaotic, he left the big city.
He lived in seclusion in the countryside of
Gansu Province.
The name of the administrative head of
Gansu Province is (Zhang Fu).
(Zhang Fu) went to visit him after hearing
the news, because (Zhang Fu) wanted to use him to attract more talents.
(Zhang Fu) said to him.
You are famous and you are respected by
all.
So I would like to invite you to join my
team.
He rejected (Zhang Fu)'s proposal, so
(Zhang Fu) was very annoyed.
One of (Zhang Fu)'s subordinates was
jealous of his talent, and this subordinate took the opportunity to slander
him.
These words deepened (Zhang Fu)'s anger.
(Zhang Fu) ordered his subordinates to
arrest him and kill him.
Before his execution, he told several of
his closest students.
I hurt (Zhang Fu) in my previous life, so I
will be killed by him in this life.
I don't resent him, on the contrary, I
thank him very much, because he killed me, so that I can make up for the damage
caused to him in my previous life.
If the two of us can meet again in the next
life, I hope to be friends with him.
This idiom means a metaphor for a person
who is famous and respected by all.
Dear friends, what inspiration or thoughts
do you have after listening to this story?
How do you feel about the injustice of
others toward you? How do you deal with your own resentment?
I hope this story will give you something
new to gain.

中國的西晉王朝，有一個著名的僧人，他的名字叫做(帛遠)。
歷史書上記載了他一生的故事。
他非常的聰明而且他很用功。
他認真研究佛教的教理、他也閱讀許多與佛教無關的經典書籍。
他被許多人所敬重，他每次講課都有上千人聽講。
西晉王朝是一個很短暫的王朝，只維持了51年。
當時中國的情勢非常的混亂，中國各地被許多軍閥所控制。
中央政府無法控制這些地方派系。
由於情勢愈來愈混亂，因此他便離開大城市。
他隱居到甘肅省的鄉下。
甘肅省的行政首長名字叫做(張輔)。
(張輔)聽到這個消息後就去拜訪他，因為(張輔)想利用他去吸引更多人才。
(張輔)對他說。
你很有名望而且你受到所有人的敬重。
所以我想邀請你加入我的團隊。
他拒絕了(張輔)的提議，因此(張輔)非常惱怒。
(張輔)的一個部屬忌妒他的才能，這個部屬就趁機中傷他。
這些話加深了(張輔)的怒氣。
(張輔)就命令部屬們把他抓起來並且殺了他。
他在受刑之前，他對他最親近的幾個學生說。
我在前世曾經傷害過(張輔)所以今生才會被他所殺。
我不怨恨他，相反的我很謝謝他，因為他殺了我，才能讓我彌補前世對他所造成的傷害。
如果我們兩個人下一輩子可以再遇見，我希望可以跟他成為朋友。
這一句成語的意思是比喻一個人很有名望且被所有人所尊敬。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你如何看待別人對你的不公義呢?你如何處理自已怨恨的情緒呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
