In your society money is like a weapon that you need to protect yourself. You must completely accept the fact that you do indeed dwell in a safe universe—one in which you are free to develop, say, your painting abilities to the fullest, without fearing that that development will dull the weapon that brings you money. You do not particularly need more money, but it is coming to you, and naturally as rain out of the sky. ——《私人课》第三册 TPS3 Deleted Session  Money Is Coming！  种养田园，回归自然 02 如果可能的话，你们俩应该有一个种新鲜蔬菜的园子——不仅仅是因为它有明显的价值，还因为它隐含着与正在生长的土地的接触，不论这个菜园有多小。 …… 每当你变得焦虑、过度担忧时，让你的注意力回到自然界中即时呈现的事物，这几乎总能使你振奋精神。 If it is possible the two of you should have a garden of fresh vegetables—not only for the obvious values, but because of the implied contact with the growing earth, regardless of how small the garden might be. … Whenever you become anxious, overconcerned, you can almost always refresh yourself by a return of attention to the events immediately present in the natural world. ——《私人课》第三册 TPS3 Deleted Session Natural World  境由心造，境由心转 03 每个人对环境的反应远比意识到的要大得多——他们也在创造着环境。为什么搬家常常是有好处的，而有时却没有，原因相当明显。一次好的搬迁在物质层面上代表了一个内在的改变，然后这个改变寻求一个新的环境，在其中它得以物质化。 …… 你的环境是你内在生命和信念的象征；在你看来环境是实质性的，而内在生命却不是。 Each person responds far more to the environment, that they also create, than is realized. The reason why moving often helps, and sometimes does not, is fairly obvious. A good move physically represents an inner change that then seeks a new environment in which it is materialized. … Your environment is a symbol of your inner life and beliefs; one appears physical to you while the inner life does not. ——《私人课》第二/四册 TPS2/4Deleted Session   学习宠物，活在当下 04 通过观察你的宠物或其他动物的行为，你可以对你自己的“身体意识”有更多了解，从而对什么是“自然人”有一定了解。你可以多多少少从它们的行为中学习，从而在某种程度上抵制易受负面信念影响的状况。我过去曾给过一些这样的资料——但在这种情况下，试着回到此刻，回到当下。以你眼前的刺激为立足点，尽可能清晰地感知它。在心里说:“这就是我现在的经历。”然后，如果你发现自己夸大了那一刻任何的不愉快，并将其投射到未来，就停下来说:“这不是当下的一部分。就我身体的实相而言，那些可怕的想象都是不真实的，不管它们是什么。我的身体只能对当下做出反应。我不会自寻烦恼，拿此刻并无实相的东西来使当下超载”。这样的想象会吓到身体意识，就像你可能会吓到动物一样。 You can learn much about your own body consciousness, and therefore to some extent about the natural man, by observing the behavior of your pets or other animals, and you can to some extent learn from their behavior, and therefore to some extent counteract any susceptibility to negative beliefs. I have given some material like this in the past—but on such occasions try to return to the moment, to the present. Perceive it as clearly as you can from the standpoint of the stimuli present before you. Mentally say “This is my present experience now.” Then, if you find yourself exaggerating any unpleasantness within that moment, and projecting it into the future, you stop and say “That is not a part of this present moment. In the terms of my bodily reality, those dire imaginings, whatever they are, are not real. My body can only respond to the present. I will not overload that present by borrowing trouble that in this moment has no reality” . Such imaginings frighten the body consciousness, as you might frighten an animal. ——《私人课》第五册 TPS5 Deleted Session Natural Man  何为成功？利世济人 05 约瑟，关于遗嘱的想法以及你俩即将到来的50岁、60岁生日，都让你审视自己的生活，问自己:“我做了些什么？我是成功者，还是失败者？” 但当你这样做的时候，你往往是通过旧的传统信念来提问。 如果你问“这个世界是否因为我的存在而变得更美好？”或者“我是否以任何方式帮助了世界上的人？”或“我是否以任何方式鼓舞了人心？”或“我是否影响他人变得更好？”，那么，这些问题的答案一定是肯定的，再没有比这更好的标准来衡量真正的成功了。 Thoughts of the will and your approaching 50th and 60th birthdays have led you, Joseph, to look over you life, to ask, “What have I done? Am I a success or a failure?” But when you do so, you often ask the question through the cast of old conventional beliefs. If you ask “Is the world a better place to live because I live?” or “Have I helped the people in the world in any way?” or “Have I lifted men’s hearts or minds in any way?” or “Have I affected others for the better?” then those answers must be yes, and there is no better measure of true success. ——《私人课》第五册 TPS5 Deleted Session 1 END 1  |
