He was not called the “rapid rabbi” for nothing. Jogging, as his desk-sign reminded him, led to positive thinking. And, thanks to his noise-cancelling earphones, it brought him peace. He heard nothing as he ran but Schubert, Beethoven, or whoever it might be. Those same earphones—one of the best purchases he had ever made—also enabled him when he meditated to hear the music of creation, the quiet voice of wisdom within it, and his response, from his spontaneous waking “Modeh Ani”, “I give thanks”, onwards. 每天早晨只要有时间，乔纳森·萨克斯都会穿上运动服，出门慢跑。“迅疾拉比”的称号可不是白叫的。如他办公桌上的台签提醒他的，慢跑可以引发积极的思考。而因为他戴上了除噪耳机，所以慢跑也带给他宁静。在他跑动的时候，除了舒伯特、贝多芬或是其他哪个人的音乐，他什么也听不见。这副耳机是他买得最值的东西，也让他在冥想时倾听创世的音乐，倾听其中宁静的智慧之声，倾听他自己的回应——从刚醒来时脱口而出的“Modeh Ani”（“我感谢”）开始的一句又一句。 |
