未来就在当下
正念的修习并不是要阻止我们去计划未来。我们最好不要迷失在对未来的不确定与恐惧之中,但如果我们真的立足于当下,我们就可以将未来带到此处、此时,并做出计划。
我们不要在思索未来的时候丢掉了当下的此刻。实际上,当下这刻就包含了过去与未来。
构成未来的唯一材料就是当下。如果你知道如何用最好的方式安排当下,这就是你能为未来所做的全部了。用你全部的注意力,全部的智慧处理好当下这刻,就是在创造未来了。
The Future Is Now
THE PRACTICE OF mindfulness doesn’t forbid us to plan for the future. It’s best not to lose ourselves in uncertainty and fear over the future, but if we’re truly established in the present moment, we can bring the future to the here and the now, and make plans.
We’re not losing the present moment when we think about the future. In fact, the present moment contains both past and future.
The only material that the future is made of is the present. If you know how to handle the present in the best way you can, that’s all you can do for the future. Handling the present moment with all your attention, all your intelligence, is already building a future.
解析:
forbid:[fəˈbɪd],动词,阻止,妨碍。
intelligence:[ɪnˈtelɪdʒəns],名词,才智,智慧。
内在的寂静
寂静是从你心中产生的,而不是外来的。寂静并不是指你不说话,不去做事。而是指你不被内在所打扰,内心没有在讲话。
如果你是全然寂静的,那无论在任何情况下,你都会享受寂静。
许多时候你觉得自己是寂静的,周围也是寂静的,但内心的话始终在你脑中响起。这就不是寂静。寂静的修行就是要在你全部的行为中找到寂静。
Inner Silence
SILENCE IS SOMETHING that comes from your heart, not from outside. Silence doesn’t mean not talking and not doing things; it means that you are not disturbed inside, there is no talking inside.
If you’re truly silent, then no matter what situation you find yourself in, you can enjoy the silence.
There are moments when you think you’re silent and all around is silent, but talking is going on all the time inside your head. That’s not silence. The practice is to find silence in all the activities you do.
解析:
disturb:[dɪˈstɜːb],动词,打扰,干扰。
