静心很简单：除了觉知，它什么也不是。不是拿着经书照本宣读，这些都只是催眠的方法

Aashna翻译

一旦你内在充满光，整个存在也散发出光辉。如果你内在是黑暗的，那么整个存在也是黑暗的。它完全取决于你。

ILLUMINATION.The moment you are illuminated, the whole if existence is illuminated. If youare dark, then the whole if existence is dark. It all depends on you. 

在世界上，有1001种关于静心的谬论。而静心很简单：除了觉知，它什么也不是。它不是唱诵，不是使用一个咒语或拿着经书照本宣读。这些都只是催眠的方法。

There area thousand and one fallacies about meditation prevalent all around the world.Meditation is very simple: It is nothing but consciousness. It is not chanting,it is not using a mantra or a rosary. These are hypnotic methods.

它们可以给到你某种程度的放松——这个放松本身并没有错。如果一个人就只是想要放松，那么这些方法非常好。

They can giveyou a certain kind of rest-nothing is wrong with that rest; if one is justtrying to relax, it is perfectly good.

催眠的方法是有帮助的。但是当一个人想要知晓真理，那么这些方法是不够的。

Any hypnotic method can be helpful, but if one wants to know the truth, then it is not enough. 

静心，就只是意味着将无意识转变成意识和觉知。

Meditation simply meanstransforming your unconsciousness into consciousness.

一般来说，我们大脑只有十分之一是有觉知的，而十分之九是无意识、没有觉知的。

Normally only one-tenthof our mind is conscious, and nine-tenths is unconscious.

头脑里只有很小的一个部分、一个空间有光亮；否则整间屋子都漆黑一片。

Just a small part ofour mind, a thin layer, has light; otherwise the whole house is in darkness.

而那个挑战就在于，让这团小光成长，以至于整间屋子都充满了光，以至于没有一个地方和角落留下黑暗。

And the challenge is to grow that small light so much that the whole house isflooded with light, so that not even a nook or corner is left in darkness.

当整间屋子充满光，那么生命就变成一个奇迹，魔法般的。那么生命不在平庸——每一件事都变得超凡。

When the whole house is full of light, then lifeis a miracle;it has the quality of magic. Then it is no longer ordinary-everything becomes extraordinary. 

平凡的变得神圣、脱俗，生命中的小事情也变得意义非凡，它远超你的想象。平凡的石头也变得跟钻石一样美；整个存在散发着无上的光辉。

The mundane is transformed into the sacred, and the small things of life start having such tremendous significance that one could not have ever imagined it.Ordinary stones look asbeautiful as diamonds; the whole of existence becomes illuminated.
