Sadhguru: Essentially in the tradition, once we attach the word “yoga” to anything, it indicates that it is a complete path by itself. We say hatha yoga, but we will not say asana yoga. Of course, if you come from the United States, they say anything! 基本上，在传统中，我们一度把任何事物都与“瑜伽”这个词联系起来，这个词表明其本身就是一个完整的路径。我们有“哈他瑜伽”的说法，但没有“体式瑜伽”的说法。当然，如果你来自美国的话，就知道他们什么说法都有。 If it is a complete path by itself, how should it be approached? If it was just a simple practice or an exercise, you could approach it one way. If it was an art form or just entertainment, it could be approached another way. I am using all these words because they are in usage in today’s world. People say “recreational yoga,” “health yoga,” people refer to it as an art form – they think they are doing a service to yoga by saying it is an art form. No. The moment you attach the word “yoga,” it indicates it is a complete path by itself. 如果瑜伽本身就是一个完整的路径，那我们该如何走上这条道路呢？如果这只是一个简单的修习或者锻炼，你可以用一种方法接近它。如果这是一种艺术形式或只是娱乐而已，就有另一种接近它的方法。我现在之所以用这些词汇，是因为当今世界正在使用它们。当人们说到“休闲瑜伽”，“健康瑜伽”的时候，他们认为瑜伽是一种艺术形式——他们认为说瑜伽是一种艺术是对瑜伽的夸赞。不是这样的，一旦你说到“瑜伽”这个词，这个词表明其本身就是一个完整的路径。 The word “yoga” essentially means, “that which brings you to reality”. Literally, it means “union.” Union means it brings you to the ultimate reality, where individual manifestations of life are surface bubbles in the process of creation. Right now, a coconut tree and a mango tree have popped up from the same earth. From the same earth, the human body and so many creatures have popped up. It is all the same earth. 本质上说，“瑜伽”这个词意味着“将你带往实相”的事物。它的字面意思就是“合一”。合一意味着将你带向终极实相，在那里，生命的个体显现就是创造过程中浮起来的气泡。现在，一棵椰子树和一棵芒果树，都出现在同样的土地上。在同一片土地上，人类和如此多的生物繁衍生息。这一切都发生在同一片土地上。 Yoga means to move towards an experiential reality where one knows the ultimate nature of the existence, the way it is made. “瑜伽”这个词意味着“将你带往实相”的事物。瑜伽意味着让你走向体验的实相，在那里，人能够体验到存在的终极本质，以及构成方式。 Yoga refers to union not as an idea, a philosophy or as a concept that you imbibe. As an intellectual idea, if you vouch by the commonness of the universe, it may make you popular in a tea party, it may give you a certain social status, but it does not serve any other purpose. You will see, when things come down to even money – it does not even have to boil down to life and death – even for money, “This is me, that is you.” The boundary is clear; there is no question of you and me being one. 瑜伽指的是合一，而不是一种你所吸收的观念，哲学或者概念。作为智能层面的一种观念，如果你大谈宇宙大同，这可能会让你在茶话会的时候大受欢迎，你可能会得到某种社会地位，但是除此之外，对你没有任何意义。你会发现，甚至当一切回归到金钱的时候——即使是为了金钱，这种观念甚至不必归结到生与死，“这个是我，那个是你。”界限很分明，你我合一毫无可能。 It actually causes damage to the individual if you intellectually see everything is one. People do all kinds of silly things because they got this idea that everybody is one, before somebody teaches them a good lesson and then they see, “This is me, that is you. No way to be one.” 如果你在智能层面将一切都视为整体，这实际上会对个体造成伤害。因为人们在没受伤害之前，曾认为人人合一，才做出种种蠢事，得到教训之后他们才明白“这个是我，哪个是你，你我合一毫无可能。” If it becomes an experiential reality, it will not bring forth any immature action. It will bring forth a tremendous experience of life. Individuality is an idea. Universality is not an idea, it is a reality. In other words, yoga means you bury all your ideas. 如果这变成了一种体验层面上的实相，那就不会带来任何不成熟的举动，而是会给人带来丰富的生命体验。个性是一种观念。宇宙合一不是一种观念，而是实相。换句话说，瑜伽意味着埋葬你所有的观念。 |
