檀弓上 - Tan Gong I

74 檀弓上:
孔子曰:“之死而致死之,不仁而不可为也;之死而致生之,不知而不可为也。是故,竹不成用,瓦不成味,木不成斫,琴瑟张而不平,竽笙备而不和,有钟磬而无簨虡,其曰明器,神明之也。”
Tan Gong I:
Confucius said, 'In dealing with the dead, if we treat them as if they were entirely dead, that would show a want of affection, and should not be done; or, if we treat them as if they were entirely alive, that would show a want of wisdom, and should not be done. On this account the vessels of bamboo (used in connexion with the burial of the dead) are not fit for actual use; those of earthenware cannot be used to wash in; those of wood are incapable of being carved; the lutes are strung, but not evenly; the pandean pipes are complete, but not in tune; the bells and musical stones are there, but they have no stands. They are called vessels to the eye of fancy; that is, (the dead) are thus treated as if they were spiritual intelligences.'

6 三教:
夏后氏用明器,殷人用祭器,周人兼用之何?谓曰:夏后氏教以忠,故先明器,以夺孝子之心也。殷教以敬,故先祭器,敬之至也。周人教以文,故兼用之,周人意至文也。孔子曰:“之死而致死之,不仁而不可为也;之死而致生之,不知而不可为也。”故有死道焉,以夺孝子之心也;有生道焉,使人勿倍也。故竹器不成用,木器不成斫,瓦器不成沫,琴瑟张而不平,竽笙备而不和,有锺磬而无簨虡县,示备物而不可用也。孔子曰:“为明器者善,为俑者不仁。涂车羞灵,自古有之。言今古皆然也。”

6 公西赤问:
原思言于曾子曰:“夏后氏之送葬也,用明器,示民无知也。殷人用祭器,示民有知也。周人兼而用之,示民疑也。”曾子曰:“其不然矣。夫以明器、鬼器也;祭器、人器也。古之人胡为而死其亲也?”子游问于孔子,曰:“之死而致死乎?不仁,不可为也;之死而致生乎?不智,不可为也。凡为明器者,知丧道矣,备物而不可用也。是故竹不成用而瓦不成膝,琴瑟张而不平,笙竽备而不和,有钟磬而无簨𧇽,其曰明器,神明之也,哀哉!死者而用生者之器,不殆于用殉也?”

3 明器:
《礼记·檀弓上》曰:宋襄公葬其夫人,醯醯百瓮。曾子曰:“既曰明器矣,而又实之。”言名之为明器与祭器皆实之,是乱鬼器与人器也。
又曰:既殡,旬而布材与明器。木工宜乾暗,且预成。材,椁材也。
又曰:之死而致死之,不仁而不可为也;之死而致生之,不知而不可为也。之,往也。死之生之,谓无知与有知也。为犹行也。是故竹不成用,瓦不成沫,木不成斫,成犹善也。竹不可用善,谓边无膝。味当作沫。沫,靧也。琴瑟张而不平,竽笙备而不和,无宫商之谓。有锺磬而无簨虡。不悬之也。横曰簨,植曰虡。其曰明器,神明之也。言神明死之也。神明者,非人所知,折其器如此。
又曰:仲宪言于曾子曰:“夏后氏用明器,示民无知也。所谓致死之。仲宪,孔子弟子原宪。殷人用祭器,示民有知也。所谓致生之。周人兼用之,示民疑也。”言使民疑于无知与有知。曾子曰:“其不然乎!其不然乎!非其说之非也。夫明器,鬼器也;祭器,人器也。夫古之人,胡为而死其亲乎?”言仲宪之言,三者皆非。此或用鬼器,或用人器。
