面包是身体的食物，然而想一想，我的孩子，它能成为你灵魂的食物吗？ Bread is the food of body, yet consider, how can it be the food of the soul, son? 每一棵树每一株草都在翩翩起舞，但它们在平凡人的眼中却是静止不动的。 Every three and plant in the meadow seemed to be dancing, those which average eyes would see as fixed and still. 谁能如此幸运？当他来到湖边只为饮一瓢水，却无意收获了月光的倒影。 Who could be so lucky? who comes to a lake for water and sees the reflection of moon. 那些被隐藏的事物，会通过它的对立面显现出来。 Hidden things are manifested by their opposites. 善是施之有道，让你的善做有所值。 Kindness is good in it's place, provides you do kindness in it's proper place. 剥掉你自以为是的聪明让自己赤裸。 Strip yourself bare of overweening intellect. 不要沉醉于高脚杯这样的形式，以防你成为偶像的制造者或追随者。 Be not intoxicated with these goblets of forms, in case you become a makerand worshipper of idols. 人类看到的一切都是上帝的反射，正如月亮在水中的倒影。 Whatever is seen in man is the reflection of God, even as the reflection of the moon in the water. 迷途的阴影好过神性的指引，学会满足好过任何的饕餮盛宴。 The shadow of a guide is better than directions to God, to be satisfied is better than a hundred nice dishes. 克制你的激情和欲望，在死亡的躯体把带走你之前，战胜你的肉体。 Mortify your carnal passions and lusts, and deny and annihilate your carnal Self before the death of body overtakes you. (Momoko 译) |
