Once there were four beggars (乞丐). One day, they met at an old temple at night. They were very upset because none of them had much to eat.
“I only got this piece of meat today, ” the first said. “I almost got nothing, ” the second said, “I just picked up a potato outside the vegetable store during the day. ” The third said that all he had was a small bottle of salt. The fourth beggar had not done much better, “I only got some old beans, but they aren’t very nice! ”
As they sat around the fire, the beggar with only a bottle of salt had a great idea. “Let’s put all our things together and boil them. In this way, we can make a tasty dish and share it. ” They all agreed. However, the first beggar thought, “I don’t want to share. I’ll just pretend to throw my meat into the pot. They’ll never know and I’ll eat my meat alone later. ” So he pretended to put the meat into the pot. And at the same time the other beggars had similar ideas to him. At that time, the temple was too dark for the beggars to see what the others were doing.
Finally, one of them suggested that the dish should be ready and, in turn, each of them helped himself to it. They drank the hot water in silence, learning that selfishness doesn’t taste all that good.
