　　有一个非常年轻貌美的太太，她快要病死了，她躺在床上奄奄一息地对她丈夫说：「我很爱你，我不想离开你。在我死后，请不要再和别人结婚。答应我，好吗?」

It\'s terrible!That\'s what she said to her husband, "I will make you suffer, always, forever, and eternally!"So the husband was maybe afraid of the wife. But here (Master points to the book) they say, "respected the wife." We always respect the wife, do we not? We respect the wife, but we\'renot afraid! So the husband respected the wife and didn\'t think of remarrying another person.

　　她很担心她丈夫会不守信用，所以就威胁他说：「如果你再婚的话，我一定会变成鬼来处理你!我会让你无穷无尽地受苦!」真可怕!她对她丈夫这么说。这位丈夫可能是怕她太太，但书上这里是说「尊重他太太」。一般人总是尊重太太，是尊重太太而不是怕太太。所以这位丈夫尊重他太太的遗言，没有动再婚的念头。

　　But as God always makes trouble for human beings, he met another beautiful woman, younger,charming, sweeter and more attractive, and richer even! Rich! Oh, terrible! And she evenloved him very much and maybe more than the wife. Oh, too bad! That was only three monthsafter the funeral service. Now what can we do about that?

She appeared in front of him and scolded him and nagged him, saying that he hadbroken his promise; that he did not love her; that he was not sincere; that he was a badhusband; that he had no conscience; that he was a lousy man; that he was a terrible humanbeing.

　　他们就这样订婚了。订婚的那天晚上，丈夫看见太太的鬼魂出现，她说：「啊哈!我说过我会再来的!」她出现在他面前责备他，唠叨地念他食言、不爱她、不诚心、是个坏丈夫没良心、是个差劲糟糕的男人.

So some people told him that heshould go to a temple and talk about his suffering to a Zen master, and maybe the Zen mastercould help him. Oh, my God! The Zen master takes care of everything, including ghosts andmarriage.

学习啦在线学习网 　　So the Zen master truly helped him. He said to the husband, "Your ex-wife has become aghost." (This we knew) "And she is very intelligent. So she knows everything that you did withyour fiancée. Actually, you should respect such a ghost. But there is a way to drive her away.Now,

学习啦在线学习网 　　next time if the ghost appears, you have to make a bet with her." The Zen master said that sheknew everything; she knew too much already. But probably there was something she didn\'tknow. If she answered incorrectly, then she should not come back and bother him any more.Then he could marry the one he loved.

　　这位禅师还真的帮了他，他告诉这位丈夫：「你的前任太太已经变成鬼了。而且她变得聪明异常，所以知道你和未婚妻所做的一切。事实上像这样的鬼，你还真得尊重才对。不过还是有法子可以赶她走。下次鬼出现时，你要和她打个赌。」禅师说这个鬼无所不知，知道许多事情，不过也许有些事情她不知道，如果她答错了的话，那就得答应不再回来打扰他，让他和心爱的人结婚。

　　Because she was dead! She could not serve him in any way. She could not cook for him. Shecould not take care of anything. So the husband asked the Zen master, "What can I do? Whatshould I ask her?"

And thenshe will disappear. Because, if she cannot answer that question, you will know this is only anillusion of your own mind, your own conscience or your own imagination

　　because you\'re already too scared, afraid of the wife and imagining, an illusion of your mind. Ifshe doesn\'t answer, if she cannot answer, then you know it\'s an illusion and she will vanish."

　　So, the next night, truly, the ghost appeared. And the husband told her, "Oh, yes, you knoweverything. You are very intelligent; I cannot do anything about it." And then the ghost said, "Yes, I know. And I also know that today you went to see a Zen master and you talked aboutus."

　　到了第二天晚上，那鬼真的又出现了，丈夫告诉她：「噢，没错，你真的是无所不知又很聪明，我实在拿你没有办法。」鬼说：「是，我知道，而且我也知道你今天去找禅师谈我们的事。」

　　So you know, was there a real ghost? No! Then you shouldn't be afraid tonight.

　　所以那个男人就说：「好吧!既然你无所不知，现在你可以告诉我，我手中有多少豆子吗?」当他一问这个问题时，鬼就消失了。所以你们知道了，真的有鬼吗?没有!所以今夜你不必害怕.
