杨王孙者,孝武时人也。学黄、老之术,家业千金,厚自奉养生,亡所不致。及病且终,先令其子,曰:“吾欲裸葬,以反吾真,必亡吾意。死则为布囊盛尸,入地七尺,既下,从足引脱其囊,以身亲土。”其子欲默而不从,重父命;欲从之,心又不忍,乃往见王孙友人祁侯。

祁侯与王孙书曰:“王孙苦疾,仆迫从上祠雍,未得诣前。愿存精神,省思虑,进医药,厚自持。窃闻王孙先令裸葬,令死者亡知则已,若其有知,是戮尸地下,将裸见先人,窃为王孙不取也。且《孝经》曰‘为之棺椁衣衾’,是亦圣人之遗制,何必区区独守所闻?愿王孙察焉。”

王孙报曰:“盖闻古之圣王,缘人情不忍其亲,故为制礼,今则越之,吾是以裸葬,将以世也。夫厚葬诚亡益于死者,而俗人竞以相高,靡财单币,腐之地下。或乃今日入而明日发,此真与暴骸于中野何异!且夫死者,终生之化,而物之归者也。归者得至,化者得变,是物各反其真也。反真冥冥,亡形亡声,乃合道情。夫饰外以华众,厚葬以隔真,使归者不得至,化者不得变,是使物各失其所也。且吾闻之,精神者天之有也,形骸者地之有也。精神离形,各归其真,故谓之鬼,鬼之为言归也。其尸块然独处,岂有知哉?裹以币帛,隔以棺椁,支体络束,口含玉石,欲化不得,郁为枯腊,千载之后,棺椁朽腐,乃得归土,就其真宅。由是言之,焉用久客!昔帝尧之葬也,窾木为匵,葛藟为缄,其穿下不乱泉,上不泄殠【注】。故圣王生易尚,死易葬也。不加功于亡用,不损财于亡谓。今费财厚葬,留归隔至,死者不知,生者不得,是谓重惑。于戏!吾不为也。”

祁侯曰:“善。”遂裸葬。                            《汉书·杨胡硃梅云传》

【注】窾(kuǎn),当中挖空的木头。匵(dú):小棺材。藟(lěi),藤。殠(chòu),腐臭的气味。

According to Beth Anaclerio, an Evaston mother of two, ages 4 and 18 months, a child’s birthday party doesn’t have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun, “Having a party at home usually requires a lot of running around on the part of the parents, and often the birthday boy or girl gets lost in wild excitement.But it really doesn’t have to be that way,” said Anaclerio.Last summer, Anaclerio and her friend Jill Carlisle, a Northbrook mother of a 2-year-old, founded a home party-planning business called “A Party in a Basket.” Their goal is to help parents and children share in the fun part of party planning, like choosing the subject or making a cake, while they take care of everything.

Drawing on their experiences as mothers, they have created 10 ready-to-use, home party packages.Everything a family needs to plan a party, except the cake and ice cream, is delivered to the home in a large basket.

“Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10,” Anaclerio said, “and they’re very interactive(互动) and creative in that they build a sense of drama based on a subject.For example, at the Soda Shoppe party the guests become waiters and waitresses and build wonderful ice cream creations.”

The standard $200 package for eight children includes a basket filled with invitations, gifts, games and prizes, paper goods, a party planner and the like.For more information, call Anaclerio at 708-864-6584 or Carlisle at 708-205-9141.
