Deepak Chopra成功学之感受当下 中
Academia is great because it brings us knowledge, but unless you self-reflect, unless you ask yourself, Who am I? 学术是伟大的,因为它带给我们知识,但是你要自我反省,问你自己,我是谁? What do I want? What is my purpose? What am I grateful for? 我想要什么?我的目的是什么?我要感激什么? What kind of world do I want to live in? 我想生活在什么样的世界里? What kind of world do I want future generations to live in? 我希望子孙后代生活在什么样的世界里? What am I doing to manifest that dream? 我在做什么能实现梦想呢? Does my daily activity in some way reflect the dream that I have? 我的日常活动在某种程度上反映了我的梦想吗? If we don't ask ourselves those questions, then our life will not have been fruitful. 如果我们不问自己这些问题,那么我们的生活将不会丰富多彩。 Reflecting back, no, you know, 50 years ago or more. 回想一下,50年前或更久以前。 I graduated, and it seems to have gone by like a dream. 我毕业了,这一切似乎就像一场梦一样过去了。 The German philosopher Wittgenstein said 'We are asleep. Our Life is a dream.' 德国哲学家维特根斯坦说:‘我们睡着了。我们的生活是一场梦。’ We are asleep. Our life is a dream. 我们睡着了。我们的生活就是一场梦。 But once in a while, we wake up enough to know that we are dreaming. 但偶尔,我们醒来后会知道我们是在做梦。 So what do we wake up to? 那么我们醒来会发现什么呢? We wake up to the awareness in which all experience happens. 我们醒来,觉察到所有体验都在其中发生。 This is an experience right now. 这是现在的一种体验。 But, you know, the first part of this evening is already over. It's a dream. 但是,你知道,今晚的前半部分已经结束了。这是个梦。 Five minutes ago is already over. It's a dream. 五分钟前已经结束了。这是个梦。 A minute ago is already over by the time I get to the end of my sentence. 当我说完这句话的时候,一分钟前已经过去了。 The first part is over. 第一部分已经结束了。 You can't grasp the bust, you can't grasp the future and the present is over. 你抓不住泡沫,抓不住未来,现在已经过去了。 As soon as it is born. So we must wake up. 只要一出生,我们必须醒过来。 We wake up to the presence in which this is all happening, experiences and time. 我们醒来,感受到这一切正在发生,有体验,有时间。 But the awareness in which experience happens is not in time. 但是,体验发生的感觉不是实时的。 So I just like you to try something right now as you're listening to me right now. 所以我希望你现在就试一试,因为你现在正在听我说。 Just turn your attention to that, which is having this experience. 只要把你的注意力转移过去,体验现在。 Be aware of that in which this experience is happening. 要意识到这种体验正在发生。 That awareness is the only real thing about you. 这种意识是你唯一真实的一面。 Everything else arises and subsides in every moment of time. 其他的一切都在每一刻起起落落。 |
