straw dog : ウィキペディア英語版
straw dog

Straw dogs () were used as ceremonial objects in ancient China.
In one translation Chapter 5 of the ''Tao Te Ching'' begins with the lines "Heaven and Earth are heartless / treating creatures like straw dogs".
Su Zhe's commentary on this verse explains: "Heaven and Earth are not partial. They do not kill living things out of cruelty or give them birth out of kindness. We do the same when we make straw dogs to use in sacrifices. We dress them up and put them on the altar, but not because we love them. And when the ceremony is over, we throw them into the street, but not because we hate them."
