3 | 無形: | 曰:冶者變更成器,須先以火燔爍,乃可大小短長。人冀延年,欲比於銅器,宜有若鑪炭之化,乃易形;形易,壽亦可增。人何由變易其形,便如火爍銅器乎?《禮》曰:「水潦降,不獻魚鱉。」何則?雨水暴下,蟲虵變化,化為魚鱉。離本真暫變之蟲,臣子謹慎,故不敢獻。人願身之變,冀若蟲虵之化乎?夫蟲虵未化者,不若不化者。蟲虵未化,人不食也;化為魚鱉,人則食之。食則壽命乃短,非所冀也。歲月推移,氣變物類,蝦蟆為鶉,雀為蜄蛤。人願身之變,冀若鶉與蜄蛤魚鱉之類也?人設捕蜄蛤,得者食之。雖身之不化,壽命不得長,非所冀也。魯公牛哀寢疾,七日變而成虎;鯀殛羽山,化為黃能,願身變者,冀牛哀之為虎,鯀之為能乎?則夫虎能之壽,不能過人,天地之性,人最為貴,變人之形,更為禽獸,非所冀也。凡可冀者,以老翁變為嬰兒,其次,白髮復黑,齒落復生,身氣丁彊,超乘不衰,乃可貴也。徒變其形,壽命不延,其何益哉? |
