所以，孝养父母，沒有一定的形 式，但皆要出自敬爱之心。 孔子曰：“今之孝者，是谓能养。至于 犬马，皆能有养。不敬何以別乎？” Confucius said, “Nowadays for a man to be filial means no more than that he is able to provide his parents with food. Even hounds and horses are, in some way, provided with food. If a man shows no reverence, where is the difference?” 所以，孝养父母，沒有一定的形 式，但皆要出自敬爱之心。
