Krishnamurti: May we continue with what we were talking about yesterday?
Before we go into that,
may the speaker remind you
this is not a weekend entertainment.
You are not here just to be amused,
or intellectually excited about it.
This is in no way a form of entertainment.
We are rather serious, and I hope you are also serious.

1:08
克里希那穆提(以下简称“克”):我们可以接着 我们昨天所说的东西继续讲下去吗?
在我们开始演讲之前, 请允许演讲者提醒一下你们, 这并不是一次 周末的娱乐活动。
你们来到这里, 不只是为了找点乐子, 或者让自己的思维 亢奋一下。 因为这绝不是什么 娱乐活动。
我们是相当认真的, 所以我希望你也是认真的。

We were saying yesterday
that human consciousness,
that is, what we are,
not superficially, but deeply,
there is a common ground upon which we all stand.
Our consciousness is more or less similar to the whole of mankind.
Wherever you go there is always sorrow,
anxiety, uncertainty,
great sense of deprivation,
a pursuit of pleasure,
and the endless pain of a thousand years of tears.
This is the common lot of all human beings
whether they live in different climates,
whether they live in China, in Russia or in America,
or in different parts of the world.
3:24
This is the common lot of all human beings.
And this is the consciousness with its content
of all individuals who think they are separate,
but they are similar to all mankind.
I think this is irrefutable.
Both logically, intellectually, and factually,
this is so.
This is not a dogmatic statement.
But when one closely observes
what human beings are actually,
not ideologically,
not in fantasy or romantically,
but actually.
Each one of us suffers,
each one of us is in a great deal of trouble,
in sorrow.
We are uncertain, insecure,
frustrated, wounded,
and wherever you go, this is so with all human beings.
5:01
Though superficially they are divided by nationalities,
by different cultural, religious differences,
but those are outward coatings of an inward travail,
inward agony,
pleasure, joy and so on.
So when you consider this carefully,
what place has an individual in it at all?
We are conditioned to individuality,
we are conditioned to think that we are separate from another,
we have separate souls – whatever that may mean.
We must succeed separately.
So, is that mere conditioning,
or is it an illusion,
or it is something that superficially...
6:37
Because we are different superficially:
you are tall, I am short, or I am black or you are brown
and so on.
Superficially, we may be different at the peripheral level,
but that does not constitute individuality.
You may have a different capacity from another.
I may be an artist and you may be a politician.
Those are outward dressings,
outward coating.
And we take the outward effects,
outward appearance, as the individual.

2:03
昨天我们说了: 人类的意识
——我们就是人类的意识—— 不是肤浅表层的意识,而是深层次的人类意识,
存在着一个我们都立足于其上的 共同基础。
我们的意识和全人类的意识 多多少少是相似的。
无论你去哪里, 你总是会看到痛苦、 焦虑、不确定、
强烈的匮乏感, 追逐快感,
人类千年以来的泪水 化作无尽的痛苦。
这是全人类的 共同命运
——无论他们活在何种 不同的气候条件下, 无论他们是生活在中国、 俄罗斯还是美国, 还是世界上其他 不同的地方。
3:24
这就是所有人的 共同命运。
而它们就是所有“个体”的 意识及其内容
——虽然“个体”会认为 他们是分离独立的, 但个体和所有其他人 是类似的。
我认为这一点是无可辩驳的。
无论是从逻辑上、 理性上还是事实上来看, 它都是如此。
这并不是一种 武断的陈述。
当我们严密仔细地观察
人类实际上的模样 ——不是意识形态上的样子,
不是幻想中的样子,或者浪漫想象中的样子, 而是实际的模样。
(我们就会看到)我们每个人都在受苦, 我们每个人都陷入于 巨大的麻烦
和痛苦之中。
我们感到 不确定、不安全、 沮丧失意、伤痕累累,
无论你去哪里, 所有的人都是如此。
5:01
尽管表面上看起来, 人类被划分为不同的国籍、
不同的文化、 不同的宗教,
但这些都是外在的表象, 而我们内心都是万般的煎熬、
痛苦万分, 也会有快感、欢愉等等。
所以当你仔细思考了 这一点后, 那么个体在这之中 究竟有着什么样的位置呢?
我们都受限于 “个体性”,
我们习惯于认为 自己和别人是彼此分离的,
我们有着分离独立的“灵魂” ——不管“灵魂”是什么意思。
我们必须获得各自的成功。
所以,它仅仅只是一种制约呢?
还是说它是一种错觉?
或者说,它是某种 肤浅表面的
6:37
因为表面上看起来, 我们都是不同的: 你很高,我很矮, 或者我是黑皮肤而你是棕色皮肤的, 等等。
表面上看,我们也许有着 外在层面上的差异, 但这(外在差异)并不能 构成「个体性」。
你的能力 也许和他人不同。
我也许是艺术家, 而你也许是个政治家。
这些都是外在的装饰、 外在的表象。
而我们会把外在的显现、 外在的形貌 当作是「个体性」。

7:27
As we said yesterday,
we are not merely listening to the speaker,
but we are thinking together over this matter.
The speaker is not laying down any dogmatic statement.
We are questioning, we are enquiring,
and doubt, scepticism is part of this enquiry.
Not only doubt what one thinks,
doubt one's beliefs, one's conclusions.
Not merely doubt what the speaker says,
that would be quite easy,
and it becomes rather superficial,
but to doubt one's own behaviour,
the way one lives,
the whole religious structure – to doubt it, to question it.
To doubt all nationalities,
why we kill human beings who are like us,
why we tolerate wars
and so on.
9:02
Scepticism has a place in our enquiry.
And we are enquiring together,
not the speaker is enquiring, and then you follow him,
or you say it is absurd and move away from it.
But rather, we are together going into this matter,
it is not a one-sided affair.
So if that is very clear,
that we are together
enquiring into the question: what has happened to man,
who was supposed to have evolved through millions of years?
And through that evolution, through that time, period,
we have more or less remained as barbarous as before:
killing each other, constantly in conflict,
divided religions
and so on.
|
7:27
就如我们昨天说过的, 我们并不仅仅是在 听演讲者说,
而是在一起 仔细思考这件事情。
演讲者并没有 做出任何教条式的陈述。
我们正在质疑, 我们正在探询, 正在怀疑,怀疑态度正是 这种探询的一部分。
不仅仅是去怀疑自己所想的东西、 自己的信仰、 自己的结论。
不仅仅只是怀疑 演讲者所说的东西 ——这是很容易的事,
它是相当 表面化的, 而是要去怀疑 我们自己的行为举止、
我们的生活方式, 整个宗教的结构 ——去怀疑它、去质疑它。
去质疑所有的国籍之分, 为什么我们要杀死那些 像我们一样的「人」?
为什么我们容忍了战争? 等等。
9:02
怀疑态度在我们的探询中 占有一席之地。
而我们正在一起探询, 不是演讲者在探询, 然后你只是听从他的, 或者说:这是荒谬可笑的东西, 然后就离开了。
而是我们要一起去 探究这个问题,
它并不是一件单方面的事情。
所以,如果这一点非常清楚了, 即:我们是在一起…… 探询这个问题: 人类到底是怎么了?
虽然人类据说已经 进化了有数百万年了?
然而在经历了这种进化, 经历了岁月与时代的变迁以后,
我们却差不多还是 和以前一样的野蛮残暴:
互相残杀, 持续不断地处于冲突中, 宗教上的分裂, 等等。

10:22
So as we said yesterday,
our consciousness, which is what we are,
is the consciousness of mankind.
And we are concerned
whether that consciousness with all its content:
the beliefs, the conclusions, the faiths, the acceptance,
the fears, the pleasures,
the agony, the loneliness, the despair,
sorrow, and the constant enquiry
if there is something more beyond all this,
is the content of our consciousness.
This is what we are.
And thought, as we said,
is not individual thought.
Thought is common to all mankind.
11:32
So again, very obvious.
And thought has created all this world in which we live.
Not nature,
not the tiger, fortunately.
Not the lovely trees or the mountains,
but the society in which we live.
Thought has created all that.
And having created it,
then thought tries to solve the problems
involved in that society of which we are.
We are society, society is not different from us.
What we are, the society is.
If we are ambitious, greedy, envious,
competitive, violent,
we create a society which is what we make of it.
12:47
So as one observes,
these are all obvious facts
if one has looked into it.
And one hopes that you are doing this,
not accepting what the speaker is saying,
but enquiring together into this very serious matter.
And this is not a weekend seriousness.
For a few days, for this morning,
for an hour or so you are a bit serious,
and then forget all about it.
Back into the routine, into the tradition, into the habit,
into the mechanical process of living.
We are enquiring together why human beings
– you, and those people who live thousands of miles away –
have made society as it is,
and whether it is possible
to bring about a radical change in that society
which means radical change in ourselves
because we are society.
14:10
The world is not different from us,
we have made this world.
Unless our world,
which is within us in the psychological area,
if that world is not transformed,
we'll go on killing each other
in the name of God,
in the name of religions,
for patriotic reasons.
And all that indicates
we are thinking in terms of isolation:
the British, the French,
the Tibetans and so on.
Thinking in isolation,
and hoping to find security both physically and psychologically
– in this isolation try to find security.
There can be no security in isolation.
15:35
It is so obvious.
There can be no security in religious isolation.
There is no security in communes because they are isolated.
There is no security
when we think we are separate from the rest of mankind.
|
10:22
所以,就如我们昨天所讲过的, 我们的意识 ——我们就是「意识」—— 我们的意识就是全人类的意识。
而我们所关心的是: 这种意识 及其所有的内容:
那些信仰、结论、 信念、认同、 恐惧、快感、
苦难、 孤独、绝望 痛苦, 以及持续不断地询问
是否存在着某种 超越这一切的事物 ——这些东西就是 我们意识的内容。
这些东西就是我们真实的模样。
而就如我们说过的: 「思想」也并不是个人的思想。
「思想」是全人类 所共有的。 这同样也是非常显而易见的。
11:32
思想已经创造出了 我们所生活于其中的这整个世界。
不是「自然世界」, 不是那只老虎——幸好是如此。
思想并没有创造出 那些美好的树木或高山, 它只是创造出了 我们所生活于其中的这个社会。
思想已经创造出了这一切。
而在创造出了它以后, 思想试图去解决 社会中的种种问题 ——我们就是 这个「社会」。
我们就是社会, 社会和我们并没有什么不同。
我们是什么样子的,社会就是什么样子的。
如果我们野心勃勃、 贪婪、嫉妒、 充满竞争性、暴力,
我们就会创造出一个 由我们这样的人所构成的社会。
12:47
所以,就如我们所观察到的, 这些都是显而易见的事实 ——如果我们已经探究了它的话。
而某人(指克氏自己)希望 你们正在这么做, 不是接受同意 演讲者所说的东西, 而是我们一起去探询 这个非常严肃的问题。
它并不只是你在周末的时候 严肃认真一下。
严肃认真个几天, 严肃认真一个早上, 在一个小时左右的时间里, 你会稍微认真一点, 之后就把所有这些东西忘得一干二净,
返回到例行公事、 传统和习惯中去了, 返回到那种 机械化流程的生活中去了。
我们正在一起探询: 为什么人类
——你,还有那些 生活在千里之外的人—— 会创造出现在这样子的社会?
而我们是否可能
为这个社会带来一次 根本性的改变 ——这意味着 我们内在的彻底改变, 因为我们就是「社会」。
14:10
这个世界和我们 并没有不同, 我们已经造就了这个世界。
而除非“我们的世界” ——也就是我们内在的世界, 心理领域的世界,
如果这个“世界”没有发生转变, 我们就仍然会继续彼此杀戮
——以上帝的名义、 以宗教的名义、 出于“爱国”的原因。
而所有这些都表明…… 我们在以 「孤立排外」的方式思考:
英国人、法国人、 藏族人,等等。
那种孤立排外的思维,
然后希望能够找到安全 ——既包括生理上的安全、也包括心理上的安全,
试图在这种「孤立排外」中 找到安全。
15:35
然而在「孤立排外」中 是不会有安全的。 这是如此显而易见。
在孤立排外的宗教中 是不可能会有安全的。
在「社群」之中是没有安全可言的, 因为社群都是孤立排外的。
而当我们认为自己和世界上其余的人是彼此分离的, 那时也不会有 「安全」。

16:10
Isolation is a very complex problem
because we are all conditioned to live and function in isolation.
That is our tradition.
That is our culture.
If you are an artist,
you are an artist: separate from everybody else.
Businessman, or the priest: separate.
And religions throughout the world are cultivating this separatism.
This is a very serious matter, please do pay attention to this
because things in the world are getting worse and worse.
People are preparing for war.
This is not a threat by me, but it is there.
17:24
And we human beings are caught up in it.
The politicians will not listen to any of this
because they cultivate isolation.
Because the vast majority of people in the world
think and believe, have faith
that when there are separate nationalities,
there will be peace.
And history has proved there is no peace in isolation,
and yet we carry on.
You have had a war in this country.
There is war going on in different parts of the world
because everybody, ideologically,
nationally and individually,
are working for themselves,
thinking in terms of security in isolation.
18:35
And as we said yesterday,
to observe this fact,
this reality,
to perceive it, not emotionally,
not as an intellectual concept,
but as an actuality, a burning reality:
that as long as we are thinking in terms of isolation,
there must be conflict.
Conflict in our relationship as we pointed out yesterday.
And this isolation brings about hatred.
This isolation brings with it
this sense of a separate entity
who must work for himself, cultivate his selfishness,
pursue his own trade, his own capacity.
19:56
That is what the scientists are doing.
The scientists, they are interested in one or two things.
The really great scientists are concerned with matter,
what is beyond matter.
But those who are employed by the government...
The scientists are maintaining war,
as the priests throughout the world are maintaining war.
Right?
These are all facts.
|
16:10
「孤立排外」 是一个非常复杂的问题, 因为我们全都被制约着 在「孤立排外」中生活和活动。
这是我们的传统。
这是我们的文化。
如果你是一个艺术家, 那你就被限定为是一个艺术家: 你和其他人是有所不同的。
或者你是商人、或者牧师: 每个人都是彼此分离的。
而全世界的宗教 也在培养这种分离主义。
这是一个非常严重的问题, 请你们务必要注意到它, 因为这个世界上的事情 正在变得越来越糟糕。
人们正在为战争做准备。 这并不是我在发出威胁, 事情就摆在那里。
17:24
而我们人类 正深陷于其中。
政客们是不会倾听 任何这类东西的, 因为他们致力于培养「孤立排外」。
因为这个世界上的 绝大部分人
都认为、都相信、都对这一点抱有信念: 那就是当国家民族 获得了独立, 那时就会有和平。
然而历史已经证明: 在「孤立排外」中是不会有和平的, 然而我们却还是一如既往。
你们在这个国家(英国) 已经经历过了一场战争。
而如今世界各地 也正在发生着战争, 因为每一个人 都在从意识形态的角度、
从国家的角度、从个人的角度
为自己而努力奋斗, 都在从「孤立排外中的安全」 出发而思考。
18:35
而就如我们昨天说过的, 我们要去观察这个事实、 这个真相、
去看到它——不是感情用事地、 不是把它作为一种智性上的概念,
而是一种真实现状、 一个严峻的现实: 那就是只要我们还是 从「孤立排外」的角度去思考, 那就必定会有冲突。
我们关系中的冲突 ——就如我们昨天所指出的那样。
而这种「孤立排外」 招致了仇恨。
这种「孤立排外」带来了
那种“分离独立个体”的感觉 ——个人必须要为自己努力奋斗, 培养起他的自私自利,
去追求他自己的事业, 发展他自己的能力。 这就是科学家们 正在做的事情。
19:56
那些科学家, 他们只对这一两件事感兴趣。
而真正伟大的科学家, 他们会关心物质世界, 以及超越物质的事物。
然而那些 由政府所雇佣的科学家
这些科学家 正在维系着战争, 就像全世界的牧师祭司 正在维系着战争一样。
对吧?这些全都是事实。
|
|
20:39
So as we said yesterday,
to perceive these facts
is not to analyse the fact,
that which one observes
– to observe.
And we went into that question briefly yesterday,
What does it mean to observe?
Observe what is happening out there,
outside of our skin:
the society, the world as it is,
where technology is advancing so rapidly,
it is almost destroying the human brain.
And the East, as we pointed out yesterday,
that is, the Far-East,
is now going to be completely mechanised,
technologically advancing far more than any other country.
21:52
As you know, Japanese cars, radios,
televisions, and all the rest of it.
And the brain has been occupied mostly with that.
And now,
if we do not wisely, carefully, intelligently
observe the deeper quality of the brain,
the deeper quality of the human being,
then the brain will naturally deteriorate,
as it is deteriorating now.
The brain has got infinite capacity,
but it is limited now as we live.
It is limited by
our desire to fulfil as an individual,
it is limited by the travail,
the agony, the despairs,
the loneliness,
the terrible state human beings live in – all that.
23:27
By all those activities, the brain is limited.
When that limitation is broken down,
it has got infinite capacity.
And we are enquiring into that:
whether it is possible to break down,
to be free from this conditioning,
as we said, from hate.
Because human beings hate each other.
You may not hate your neighbour,
but you hate anybody
who interferes with your particular ideas,
or you tolerate them, which is the same form.
|
20:39
所以,就如我们昨天说过的: 我们要看到这些事实, 而不是去分析事实
不是去分析我们所看到的东西 ——而是要去「观察」它。
而我们昨天已经简要地 探讨过这个问题了, 即「观察」是什么意思?
去观察 外在所发生的事情、 我们身体之外的事物:
这个社会、这个世界的真实现状,
这个世界的科技 正在飞速发展, 它几乎快要消灭掉 人类的大脑了。
而东方世界…… ——就如我们昨天所指出的那样, 也就是远东地区, 那里即将变得 彻底机械化,
那里科技发展的速度 远超其他任何国家。
21:52
你们知道的: 日本的汽车、收音机、 电视机, 等等。
大脑基本上就是在 忙碌于这些东西。
而现在, 如果我们没有明智地、 仔细地、智慧地去观察
大脑 最深处的品质, 以及人类 最深处的品质,
那么很自然地, 大脑就会堕落退化了 ——就像现在它正在堕落衰退一样。
大脑有着 无限的能力, 然而我们如今的这种生活 却制约了它。
大脑受到了制约 ——它被我们作为个体 想要成就的欲望所制约,
被艰难困苦、 痛苦、绝望、
孤独所制约, 被人类所身处于的可怕境地 等等 所制约。
23:27
大脑受到了 所有这些活动的制约。
而当这种制约 被打破, 大脑就会拥有无限的能力了。
而我们 正在探询的是: 是否有可能 去打破、 去摆脱掉 这种制约
——就如我们说过的——摆脱掉「仇恨」。
因为人类正在 彼此憎恨。
你或许并不憎恨 你的邻居, 但你却会憎恨任何
干涉了你 特定理念的人, 或者你会“容忍”他们 ——这是同一回事儿。
|
|
24:20
And we went into the question also
of human beings wounded, psychologically.
To observe that wound,
and not carry on and on for the rest of one's life.
See the consequences of being hurt psychologically,
what it breeds:
loneliness, resistance, more fear.
To observe it.
And observation is like a flame, which is attention.
And with that capacity of observation,
the wound, the feeling of hurt, the hate
– all that is burnt away, gone, if you observe attentively.
|
24:20
我们也探讨了 这个问题: 那就是人类 心理上的创伤。
去观察那种创伤, 而不要在余生中 一直携带着它。
去看清 受到心理上伤害的后果,
它会滋生出什么: 滋生出孤独、 抵抗、更多的恐惧。
去观察它。
而这种观察就像是一团火焰 ——它就是「注意」。
而借助于这种 观察的能力,
那些创伤、 那种受伤的感觉、那种仇恨 ——所有这些都会燃烧殆尽、消失无影, 如果你能保持注意去观察它的话。
|
|
25:22
And also, we talked yesterday about relationship,
human relationship,
intimate and not intimate.
How we are in constant conflict
with each other in our relationship – man, woman.
I am sure we know all this.
But we tolerate this conflict, we have put up with it.
We are educated to accept conflict.
And conflict we consider as necessary, as a form of progress.
So where there is conflict, there cannot be love.
We talked about it briefly yesterday also.
Conflict has a cause.
26:36
And has love a cause?
If I love you because you give me food, sex,
comfort, dependence,
I feel attached to you for various reasons:
economic, social, health.
Is that love?
Please, we are asking this question.
The speaker may ask it, but you have to ask this of yourself.
Has love a cause?
The two words are contradictory.
Because our present so-called love has a cause,
and therefore in it there is always the seed of conflict.
So what has a cause, can end.
The effect can end.
|
25:22
此外,我们昨天 也谈论了「关系」, 人类的关系 ——亲密的和不亲密的关系。
我们是怎么会处于 持续不断的冲突中的, 在我们彼此之间的关系中——在男女关系中—— 有着持续不断的冲突 我确信我们都知道所有这些东西。
然而我们却容忍了这种冲突, 我们忍受了这种冲突。
我们被教育着 要去接受冲突。
而我们将冲突视为是必要的、 是某种形式的“进步”。
所以,当有了冲突, 就不可能会有「爱」。
我们昨天也简要地 谈论了一下它。
冲突是有一个起因的。 而「爱」会有一个起因吗?
26:36
如果我爱你,是因为 你给了我一日三餐、性爱、 安慰、依靠,
我因为各种原因 而变得执著依恋于你: 经济原因、社会原因、健康原因。
那么这是「爱」吗?
请注意, 我们正在询问这个问题。
或许是演讲者问了这个问题, 但你也必须问问你自己这个问题。
「爱」会有一个起因吗?
这两个词(爱和起因)本是相互矛盾的。
因为我们如今所谓的“爱” 是有一个起因的, 因此在它之中, 总是会有冲突的种子。
因此,拥有「起因」的事物,它也会有「结束」。 任何「结果」都会结束。
|
|
27:58
And we ought to talk over together this morning
so many other things involved,
like fear, pleasure, loneliness,
whether sorrow can ever end.
You know, man has never understood,
or finished, ended sorrow.
After millions of years,
he is still living with sorrow and fear,
pursuing something which he thinks is real, true,
and he is always disappointed.
And to achieve that reality, that truth, he must struggle:
conflict is necessary to achieve that which is beyond all time.
So we are trained, we are educated,
it is our habit, our tradition to struggle,
to live in conflict.
Conflict is not only personal,
but the conflict with other people,
with other nations.
29:30
So we are asking: what is the root,
the cause of this conflict?
Please, you are asking this question with me.
Please don't wait for an answer from the speaker.
We are both, together,
examining the cause of this endless conflict between human beings.
Conflict of religion,
conflict of nationalities,
the destruction of human beings
who believe in something different from you,
the conflict of ideologies, conclusions.
Can this conflict ever end?
Or must human beings everlastingly live with it?
|
27:58
而今天早上, 我们应该一起来讨论一下
这其中牵涉到的很多其他东西, 比如恐惧、快感、孤独, 以及「苦难」是否可以终结。
你瞧, 人类从未能够了解、 或者结束、或者终结掉「苦难」。
在经历了数百万年之后, 人类仍然带着 痛苦与恐惧在生活,
追求着某种他认为是真实的、 正确的东西, 然而他却总是感到了失望。
而要达到那个「实相」、那个「真理」, 他就必须努力奋斗: 人类必须要有冲突 才能达到那个超越所有时间的事物。
所以我们就是这样 被培养和教育的, 我们的习惯、我们的传统 就是去努力奋斗、 去生活在冲突之中。
冲突并不只是个人的, 也包括 和其他人的冲突, 和其他国家的冲突。
29:30
所以我们正在问: 这种冲突的根源、 这种冲突的原因是什么?
请注意, 你是和我一起在问这个问题。
所以请不要等待一个 来自演讲者的答案。
我们双方正在一起…… 去检视这种人与人之间 无止尽冲突的原因。
宗教的冲突, 民族之间的冲突, 去毁灭那些
和你 有不同信仰的人, 各种意识形态、 各种结论之间的冲突。
这种冲突有可能止息吗? 还是说,人类就一定要 永远带着它生活?
|
|
30:42
What is the root of this conflict?
The cause?
If one can find out the cause,
then the effect can naturally be sterilised,
wiped away or end.
But if we don't find the cause, the deep-rooted cause,
then you may
try to alter the cause.
You understand?
If I don't find cause for my unhappiness,
I will always live in my unhappiness.
If I don't find cause for my sense of loneliness,
I will always tolerate it,
put up with it, be frightened with it,
go through the various travails involved in loneliness.
But if I can find the cause of it, I can end it.
So we are trying together,
we are not accepting what the speaker is saying.
The speaker is totally anonymous.
It is not important what the speaker is,
but what he says is important.
|
30:42
导致这种冲突的根源 是什么? 原因是什么?
如果我们可以发现那个原因, 那么它的结果 自然就会被消解、 被抹除、或者被终止了。
然而如果我们没有找到原因、 那个根深蒂固的原因, 然后你或许就可以
试着去改变那个原因了。
你们理解了吗?
如果我没有发现 我不幸福的原因, 那我就将一直 生活在不幸福之中。
如果我没有发现 导致我孤独感的原因,
我就会一直容忍这种孤独, 我将会忍受它、 我会害怕它, 我会经历体验 孤独所带来的各种痛苦。
但如果我可以发现导致孤独的原因, 那我就可以结束掉它了。
所以我们正在一起尝试, 我们并没有接受同意 演讲者所说的东西。
演讲者完全是个 无名之辈。
演讲者是谁 并不重要, 但他所说的东西是很重要的。
|
|
32:22
So, what is the cause of this conflict?
First of all,
look at the ideologies man has created:
the Russian ideology,
Marx, Lenin ideologies,
Mao Tse Tung ideologies,
the Christian ideologies,
the Hindu, the Buddhist, the Tibetan,
the American, democratic.
Is one of the causes of this conflict, ideologies?
You understand?
Please ask yourself this question.
You are Christian, which is an ideology,
with your form of worship, mass,
and all the tradition that goes with it,
the peculiar dresses and so on,
and I, as a Hindu
– if I am, I am not –
I, as a Hindu, if I am one, have my own peculiar ideologies,
my own beliefs, my own faith, my own superstitions.
33:54
So we are in conflict with each other.
We tolerate each other,
but yet, there is the strain between us.
You believe in one thing and I believe in another.
There is the whole totalitarian ideologies
and the democratic ideologies.
These ideologies are at war.
Right?
So we are asking,
is one of the roots of conflict any form of ideology?
Any form of intellectual conclusions
based on study, based on enquiry,
and come to a conclusion,
and you come to a different conclusion
studying the same thing, and so we are at each other.
So we are finding out
whether ideologies are one of the causes of this conflict
in the world, and also in ourselves.
35:07
Which is, I conclude something from my experience.
I have had an experience of a peculiar kind – I hold on to it,
and you have another,
so there is a difference, there is conflict.
Can one then,
if ideologies are one of the root causes of conflict,
can one live without ideologies?
Go on, work it out.
Think it out together.
Do it please,
as we are sitting here, enquiring, do it.
See whether one can be free.
If you think ideologies are one of the root causes of wars,
disturbance, conflict,
whether those ideologies are necessary at all.
Ideologies are the projection of thought.
36:21
That thought may have enquired, studied,
accumulated a great deal of historical knowledge
and come to a conclusion, and holds to that conclusion.
Another does the same thing.
So there are two different camps
dividing each other, arming each other, killing each other.
And we are doing the same thing in our private life,
in our relationship with each other.

32:22
所以,导致这种冲突的原因 是什么呢?
首先, 看看人类所创造出来的 各种意识形态吧:
俄罗斯的意识形态, 马克思、列宁的意识形态,
毛泽东的意识形态 基督教的意识形态,
印度教徒、 佛教徒、藏族人的意识形态, 还有美国人的意识形态:民主精神。
各种意识形态,它是否就是 导致冲突的原因之一?
你们能理解吗?
请问问你自己 这个问题。
你们都是基督教徒 ——这就是一种意识形态, 你们有着自己的那些 崇拜方式、弥撒、
以及所有 与之相关的传统、 那些奇特的服装,等等,
而我,作为一名印度教徒 ——假如我是的话,但其实我并不是—— 我作为一名印度教徒——如果我是其中一员的话 ——我就会有我自己独特的意识形态, 我自己的信仰、我自己的信念、
33:54
所以我们就会 彼此冲突。
我们会“容忍”对方, 然而我们之间 却还是会有紧张压力。
你信仰某个东西, 而我信仰另一个东西。
我们还有着所有那些 极权主义的意识形态 和民主精神的意识形态。
这些意识形态正在彼此交战。
是这样吧?
所以我们正在问, 导致冲突的根源之一 是否就是因为存在某种意识形态?
任何形式的 智性上的结论
基于研究、 基于探询, 然后得出某个结论, 而你则得出了一个 不同的结论
——虽然你研究的是同一个东西 ——于是我们便会互相斗争了。
对吧? 因此,我们正在去发现
意识形态是不是 导致了冲突的原因之一 ——既包括这个世界上的冲突、 也包括我们内心的冲突。
35:07
也就是说,我从我的经验中 得出了一些结论。
我曾经有过某种独特的经验 ——于是我便坚信执著于它 而你则会有另外的经验, 所以你我便有了分歧, 然后就会有冲突。
那么我们是否能够
如果「意识形态」 是导致冲突的根源之一, 那么我们是否能够不带意识形态地生活呢?
继续,去把它想明白。
让我们一起好好想想它。 请你们务必要这样做。
当我们坐在这里的时候, 去这样做,去探询它。
看看我们是否能够从中解脱。
如果你认为「意识形态」 是导致战争、
扰乱、冲突的根源之一, 那么这些「意识形态」 究竟是否有必要存在呢?
意识形态就是 思想的投射。
36:21
那种「思想」或许已经 探询过了、研究过了, 积累了大量 过往的历史知识, 然后它得出了某个结论, 并执著于那个结论。
而其他人也会做同样的事情。
所以存在着两个不同的阵营, 它们彼此分裂,双方都在武装自己, 然后互相残杀。
而我们也在自己的 私人生活中、 在我们彼此间的关系中 做着同样的事情,
|
|
37:01
So can one be free of all ideologies?
We see the cause of it.
The cause is, we think that with ideologies,
with ideas, with ideals,
we will be secure,
we will be safe.
And we discover that ideologies in themselves,
created by man, will inevitably bring about conflict.
There is the cause, which is, the cause is isolation.
Isolation may be two hundred million people on one side
and ten million people on the other.
Or two people on one side and ten on the other.
So having discovered the cause, which is,
the desire to live according to a pattern:
traditional pattern, or ideological pattern
or a noble pattern,
such ideologies will inevitably bring about isolation.
38:35
And that may be one of the major causes of conflict.
Now, when one has observed this fact,
and the causation of it,
to be free of the cause.
To be free of the desire, of the urge,
that in ideas, in conclusions,
in concepts, ideals, there is safety.
Come on, sir.
Either it is a fact or it is not.
It is a wrong conclusion.
Conclusion, you understand again, which means separate.
I don't know if you see that.
The moment we come to a conclusion,
it breeds isolation.
I believe in Christ and you don't.
I believe in the Buddhist way of life, and you don't.
So there is this constant struggle,
which means the brain has accepted a pattern of living
according to some ideal, a concept, a symbol,
and there is the illusion: in that there is safety.
40:18
So I cling to it.
But when you point out to me the nature of this movement,
either I reject it entirely, which is natural,
or if I am at all sensitive,
at all aware of the world as it is now,
then I begin to enquire,
then I begin to see
that the facts are much more real
than the conclusions about the facts.
Right?
So can one be free of the cause,
of this ideological concept of life?
Which is really a very, very serious question,
because from Plato, Aristotle, and from the ancient Indians,
ideals have become extraordinarily important.
And we live according to the Greeks and their conclusions
though we have expanded, we have narrowed it down, and so on.
41:42
So the same thing,
this whole idea of living according to an ideal,
which must breed conflict.
Which is, the fact is 'what is', not 'what should be'.
The 'should be' has no fact whatsoever,
'what is' is a fact.
Right?
|
37:01
所以,我们能够摆脱掉 所有的意识形态吗?
我们看到了冲突的原因。
那个原因就是: 我们认为凭借各种意识形态、
理念、理想, 我们就可以很安稳, 我们就会很安全。
然而我们却发现: 这些人类所创造出来的意识形态本身, 它们不可避免地 会带来冲突。
是吧?
原因找到了, 也就是说,这个原因就是「孤立排外」,
这种「孤立排外」也许是 两亿人站在某一方, 而一千万人 站在另一方。
或者两个人站在一方, 而十个人站在另一方。
所以,在发现了 原因之后——
原因就是:我们渴望根据 某种模板来生活:
传统的模板、 意识形态的模板、 或者高尚人格的模板, 而这些意识形态 不可避免地会带来「孤立排外」。
38:35
而这或许就是导致冲突的 主要原因之一。
而现在,当我们观察到了 这一事实, 以及导致它的原因以后, 我们需要摆脱掉那个原因。
摆脱掉 那种欲望和驱动力 ——也就是认为在理念、结论、
概念和理想中 有着安全。
加油啊,先生。
它要么是一个事实, 要么不是。
它只是一个错误的结论。
结论……你们懂的, 它同样意味着「分离」。 我不知道你是否看到了这一点。
一旦我们 得出了一个结论, 它便会滋生出「孤立排外」。
我相信基督, 而你不相信。
我信奉佛家的生活方式, 而你并不信奉。
所以存在着这种 持续不断的斗争, 这意味着大脑已经 接受认同了那种
根据某个理想、概念或符号 而来的生活模式,
并且有了这种错觉: 即在这之中有着安全。 于是我执著于它。
40:18
然而当你向我指出了 这种运动的本质以后,
我要么是完全地拒绝它 ——这也是很自然的, 或者,如果我真的很敏感,
真的觉察到了 如今这个世界的现状, 我就会开始去探询, 然后我就会看到
那就是:「事实」远比那些
「关于事实的结论」更加真实。
对吧?
所以我们能否摆脱掉那个原因, 摆脱掉这种对于生活的 意识形态层面的概念?
这真的是一个 非常非常严肃的问题, 因为从柏拉图、亚里士多德开始, 从古代印度人开始, 「理想」就已经变得 极其重要了。
而我们会根据希腊人 和他们的结论而生活
——尽管我们已经将其扩展, 或者把它狭隘化了,等等。
41:42
所以同样的道理, 这整个关于 “根据理想来生活”的理念, 它必定会滋生出冲突。
也就是说,事实是“真实的模样”, 而不是“应该要怎样”。
“应该要怎样” 根本就不是事实, “真实的模样”才是事实。 对吧?
|
|
42:10
So we are asking also,
are there other factors
of conflict in one's life?
We are asking this question because
– not because – we are asking this question naturally,
is there a way of living in our daily life
– a peaceful, vibrant, active life, not just sleepy life –
to be free from all conflict,
to have no problems?
Problem is another factor of conflict.
Right?
We are trying to find out a way of living
entirely different from what we are living now.
The world is becoming more and more insane.
And for those
who want to be sane, it is rather difficult in this world.
|
42:10
所以我们同样也问了, 还有什么其他因素
导致了我们生活中的冲突?
我们之所以问这个问题 是因为
——不是因为……—— 我们是很自然地问了这个问题, 即:是否存在这样一种 我们日常生活的方式:
一种平静的、充满活力的、 积极主动而非慵懒昏睡的生活,
一种摆脱了所有冲突、 没有任何问题的生活?
因为「问题」就是 导致冲突的另一个因素。
对吧?
我们正在试图去找到 一种生活方式, 这种生活方式是完全不同于 我们现在所过的生活的。
这个世界正在变得 越来越疯狂。
而那些…… 想要变得心智健全的人 在这个世界上可谓是举步维艰。
|
|
43:37
So, is fear one of the causes of conflict
in one's life?
We said
ideals may be one of the factors of conflict
because it takes away from us
the facing the fact.
And we are asking,
is fear one of the factors of conflict?
Is isolation, which is part of fear,
is that a cause of conflict?
Isolation:
me and you,
we and they,
the enemy and the allies.
You understand?
This perpetual process of isolation.
Identify with one group against another group:
the Buddhist group, the Christian group.
You understand?
This seems so absurd.
45:26
And is fear a major factor?
What is the cause of fear?
Because as we said, when you discover the cause
the effect can be wiped away.
But we are always dealing with the effects.
I am afraid of that person,
or I am afraid of thunder,
or I am afraid of my wife, husband
– a dozen forms of fear.
And we want to wipe away the effects of fear.
We never question whether fear can totally end.
Which is, to find out the cause of it.
Right?
Can we go along together with it?
|
43:37
所以, 恐惧是不是导致
我们生活中冲突的原因之一?
我们说过: 「理想」或许是 导致冲突的因素之一,
因为它让我们
不再去面对现实。
而我们正在问: 「恐惧」是不是 造成冲突的因素之一?
「孤立排外」 ——它就是恐惧的一部分—— 它是否就是导致冲突的原因?
孤立排外: 也就是「我」和「你」, 「我们」和「他们」, 「敌人」和「盟友」。
你们理解了吗?
这种无止尽的 孤立排外的过程。
认同于某个团体, 然后去反对另一个团体: 佛教徒团体、 基督教团体。
你们理解了吗? 这看起来是如此的愚蠢荒谬。
45:26
而恐惧是不是一个主要的因素?
那么导致恐惧的原因是什么呢?
因为就如我们说过的, 当你发现了那个原因, 那么「结果」就会被消除掉。
然而我们却总是在 处理对付「结果」。
我害怕那个人, 或者我害怕打雷,
或者我害怕我的妻子、 我的丈夫 ——一大堆各式各样的恐惧。
而我们想要消除掉 「恐惧造成的结果」。
我们从来没有去问一下: 恐惧是否能够彻底结束?
也就是去发现 恐惧产生的原因。
对吧?
我们可以一起来 探究一下它吗?
|
|
46:26
Please, you are asking this question of yourself,
not merely listening to the speaker.
You know, we always want to be led,
that is one of our beastly nature.
We all want to be told what to do:
Marx tells you what to do,
Christ tells you what to do,
the psychologists tell you what to do,
the politicians tell you what to do,
the gurus, and all that business.
We are always looking for leaders,
a better political leader than the present one.
And the better political leader is always not good enough,
but the next one will be better.
And so we keep this idea.
There is no leader here.
Please let's be clear on this point.
47:41
There is no leader as far as I am concerned.
You can create the speaker into a leader
which will be utter folly,
but the speaker is not a leader.
We are together co-operating
to discover the cause of all this,
misery of man.
You have had a thousand leaders,
they have all failed.
Right?
It isn't that we must have self-confidence,
or we must rely on ourselves,
we have also done that.
That hasn't lead very far.
Whereas if we can co-operate together
in our enquiry,
find out why human beings are what they are now.
You see, there is perpetual misery, conflict,
and we say, fear.
|
46:26
拜托了,你正在问你自己 这个问题, 而不仅仅是在 听演讲者说。
你瞧,我们总是 想要被指引, 这是我们 该死的本性之一。
我们都想要别人来告诉我们 该怎么做: 马克思会告诉你们该怎么做,
基督会告诉你们该怎么做, 心理学家 会告诉你们该怎么做,
政治家们 会告诉你们该怎么做, 还有那些古鲁…… 你们都知道所有这类事情。
我们总是在 寻找领袖, 一个比现有领袖 更好的政治领袖。
然而那个“更好的政治领袖” 却总是还不够好, 下一个领袖将会更好。
我们就一直保持着这种想法。
但这里并没有什么“领袖”。 拜托了,我们都要清楚这一点。 在我看来, 这里并没有什么领袖。
47:41
你们可以把演讲者 奉为领袖, 但这将会是极其愚蠢的, 演讲者并不是什么领袖。
我们只是在一起合作
去发现 造成这一切的原因、 造成人类痛苦不幸的原因。
你们曾经有过上千位领袖, 然而他们全都失败了。
对吧?
我们难道不是 必须要有自信力吗?
或者说,我们必须要依靠我们自己, 我们同样也这样做了。
但这也并没有取得多大的进展。
然而如果 我们可以一起合作
去探询、 去发现为什么人类 会变成现在这个样子。
你瞧,人类永远处于 痛苦和冲突之中, 然后我们提到了恐惧。 「恐惧」是 导致冲突的原因之一。
|
|
48:55
Fear is one of the causes of conflict.
What is the cause, the root of fear?
We are not talking about the branches of fear
or trimming the branches of fear,
but the very root of it.
The tree that has many branches,
many leaves, many flowers, we are not concerned with that,
but the root of it.
Is it this eternal seeking,
living in isolation,
which is, living on the periphery.
You have certain characteristics,
certain culture, certain way, certain tradition,
and you are satisfied with that.
You are British.
All right?
We'll tolerate this?
50:11
And in France: 'We are French!'
Go to Spain, it is the same.
Go anywhere in the world, it is the same assertion.
Outwardly and inwardly we are isolated:
my desire, my fulfilment, my wanting, all the rest of it.
So is that one of the causes of conflict, isolation?
Obviously.
Politically, as long as you remain British,
and the French, etc.,
there will be no global relationship,
and therefore there will be no peace in the world at all.
Right?
Tell that to the politicians and they'll say, buzz off.
And we elect these politicians.
|
48:55
那么造成恐惧的 原因和根源是什么呢?
我们并没有在谈论 恐惧的细枝末节, 或者去“切除” 恐惧的细枝末节, 而是要去处理恐惧的根源。
「恐惧之树」有着很多的枝节、 很多的树叶、很多的花朵, 但我们并不关心这些东西, 我们关心的是恐惧的根源。
其根源是否就是我们在永无止境地寻求孤立, 并生活在孤立排外中
——也就是 生活在外围表层。
你有着 某种特质、 某种文化习俗、 某种行事方式、某种传统, 而你对此感到满意。
你们都是英国人。 是吧?我们都容许了这一点?
50:11
而在法国,人们会说:“我们是法国人!” 当你去了西班牙,也会是一样的情况。
无论你去世界上的任何地方, 人们都会作出同样的这种断言。
我们的外在和内在 都是孤立排外的: 我的欲望、我的成就、 我的欲求,等等这些。
所以,「孤立排外」是否就是 导致冲突的原因之一?
很显然是的。
从政治上来说, 只要你仍然还是一个英国人、 一个法国人,等等, 那就不会有什么 “全球关系”了, 所以这个世界 绝不可能会有和平。
对吧?
但当你把这些告诉那些政客, 他们会说“你还是滚吧”。
然而正是我们选举出了这些政客。
|
|
51:22
So, we are finding out ideologies, isolation,
and now we are enquiring
into whether fear is one of the factors
of conflict in our life.
Obviously it is.
I am afraid of you because you are cleverer than me,
you are more beautiful than me.
You know, this constant comparison.
So, is comparison one of the factors?
Of course it is.
Can one live a life without any comparison?
Which means no measurement.
I am this, but I will be that – that is a measurement.
I will be that – breeds fear.
Right?
I don't know if you follow all this.
|
51:22
所以,我们发现意识形态、 孤立排外是其中两个原因,
而现在,我们正在探询: 恐惧是不是 导致我们生活中冲突的
因素之一?
很显然它也是。
我害怕你,是因为 你要比我更加聪明, 我比我更加美丽。
你懂的, 这种持续不断的比较。
所以「比较」是不是 也是其中一个因素?
它当然是的。
那么我们是否能够去过一种 没有任何比较的生活呢?
它意味着没有「量度」。
我是这样的,但我将会变成那样的 ——这便是一种「量度」。
我将会变成那样的——这滋生了恐惧。
对吧? 我不知道 你们是否跟上了所有这些。 所以,恐惧的根源是什么呢?
|
|
52:39
So, what is the root of fear,
the cause?
Is it time?
Is it thought?
Is it desire?
So if these are the causes – if they are.
We are saying, is desire one of the causes of fear?
We will go into it.
Is it thought that is the root of fear?
Is it time?
Time being a movement from 'what is' to 'what should be'.
Time being the state of the brain
that says, I am this but I will pursue the ideal.
And is thought the root of fear?
54:04
The remembrance of pain of yesterday,
hoping that pain will not occur again.
Thinking
– is that one of the causes of fear?
Don't say, 'If I don't think what will I do?'
That is not the point.
The point is we are trying to enquire
whether thought breeds fear.
Of course it does.
Is desire the ground on which fear flowers?
So we have to enquire into these factors.
|
52:39
恐惧的起因是什么? 是「时间」吗?
是「思想」吗?
是「欲望」吗?
而如果这些就是原因 ——如果它们是的话。
我们正在问: 欲望是不是导致恐惧的原因之一?
我们将会来探究它。
「思想」是否就是 恐惧的根源?
还是「时间」?
「时间」就是从“真实模样” 前进到“应该怎样”的运动。
「时间」就是 这样一种大脑状态
——在其中大脑会说:我是这样子的, 但我将会去追求那个理想。
那么「思想」是恐惧的根源吗?
54:04
我还记得 昨日的痛苦, 于是我希望这种痛苦 不要再次发生。
各种「想」…… ——这是否就是 导致恐惧的原因之一?
请不要说“如果我啥都不想, 那我要做什么呢?
” 这并不是重点。
重点是 我们正在试着去探询: 是否是「思想」滋生了恐惧。
当然是的。
那么「欲望」是否就是 恐惧得以开花绽放的土壤?
所以我们必须要来探询一下 这些因素。 什么是「欲望」?
|
|
55:04
What is desire?
What is thought?
What is time?
Shall we go on?
You are not tired?
What is desire,
which shapes our life,
which has such extraordinary vitality, drive?
We live by desire.
The objects of desire may vary from time to time,
but we are not concerned with the objects,
we are concerned with the root of fear.
Which is, we are asking whether desire is one of the factors
and not desiring that or this,
but desire itself.
Right?
What is desire?
We have to enquire, what is sensation?
56:36
Both tactical, touching – what is sensation?
What is the function of the senses?
Are the senses separate in themselves?
And if they are separate,
you cannot do anything about it.
But is it possible,
please listen to this, you may not have thought of it,
is it possible to operate with all your senses fully awakened?
You understand my question?
I may be very good in seeing clearly with my eyes,
or I have a very good
taste about wine,
or I am sensitive about this or that.
But I am asking,
is it possible to have all your senses heightened
and fully operating together?
58:04
You understand my question?
Have you ever looked, have you ever tried
– I am not asking, please, I am asking this politely –
have you ever tried to look at a tree with all your senses?
Or at the sea, with all its beautiful waves,
and colour and depth, and the tremendous vitality of it?
To look at something with all your senses.
That is, to have total sensation, not partial sensation.
|
55:04
什么是「思想」? 什么是「时间」? 我们可以继续下去吗? 你们不累吧?
什么是「欲望」?
欲望塑造了我们的生活, 欲望有着如此 非凡的活力与驱动力。
我们依靠欲望而活。
欲望的对象或许会 随着时间的推移而改变,
但我们所关注的 并不是欲望的对象, 我们关心的是 恐惧的根源。
也就是,我们正在问: 欲望是否就是其中一个因素?
不是欲求这个东西或那个东西, 而是「欲望」本身。
对吧?
什么是欲望呢?
由此我们就必须询问一下: 什么是「感觉」?
56:36
无论是触觉、触碰 ——究竟什么是「感觉」呢?
感官的运作 又是什么?
各种感官是 彼此分离独立的吗?
如果它们是分离独立的, 那你就无法对它做任何事情了。
但我们是否可能
请听好了,你们或许还没有 思考过这件事情, 是否可能在所有感官 充分觉醒的情况下去运作?
你们能听懂我的问题吗?
我也许很擅长于 用眼睛去看清一个事物,
或者我拥有很出色的
品尝葡萄酒的能力, 或者我对这种或那种事物 很敏感。
但我在问的是: 是否可能让你所有的感官 都变得敏锐, 然后完全同步地运作?好吗?
58:04
你们理解我的问题吗? 你是否曾经看过…… 你是否曾经尝试过
——我并没有在要求你,请注意, 我只是很礼貌地提出这个问题—— 你是否曾经试着 用你所有的感官去看一棵树?
或者去看大海, 观赏大海美丽的海浪、 色彩、深度、 以及大海那惊人的活力?
用你所有的感官 去看某个东西。
换句话说,拥有全部的感官感觉, 而不只是部分的感官感觉。
|
|
58:57
And what is sensation?
Pain, physical pain,
physical discomfort,
ill health.
And also psychologically,
the sensation, the feeling of being hurt,
being lonely,
the sense of depression and elation,
the sense of deep, inward loneliness of man.
When we talk about man, we are also including the woman
so don't get excited about it.
We live by sensation,
only partially.
And is sensation,
is that one of the causes of desire?
I desire a car, a suit, a shirt,
or a robe, or a dress.
I look in the window.
I perceive, optically perceive,
and I go inside and touch the material.
1:00:36
It is good material – which is sensation.
So I am beginning to discover that
seeing, touching, contact,
from that, sensation.
Right?
Seeing visually,
contact, sensation.
Then what happens?
Then thought arises,
and says, how nice if I could get into that car and drive fast.
Or in that shirt, in that dress.
So thought creates the image
of me having that shirt,
or something else.
When thought creates the image
then there is the beginning of desire.
Are you following all this?
Go into it, sirs.
|
58:57
那么什么是「感官感觉」呢?
痛苦,身体的疼痛, 身体上的不舒服, 健康不佳。
此外还有心理上的痛苦, 那种感受, 觉得自己受到了伤害,
感到寂寞, 感到抑郁 或者亢奋, 感到了人类内心深处的 那种孤独。
当我们说到“人(man)”的时候, 我们也将“女人(woman)”包括在内了, 所以不要为此太过于激动。
我们是依靠感官感觉而生活的, 但只有部分的感官感觉。
而「感官感觉」
它是否就是 导致了「欲望」的原因之一?
我渴望一辆汽车、 一套西装、一件衬衫、 一件长袍或者一套衣服。
我看到了玻璃橱窗里的东西, 我感知到了它——从视觉上感知到了它, 然后我走进了商店, 我触碰它的料子。
1:00:36
它的材料质地很好 ——这就是感官感觉。
于是我开始发现 这种过程: 看到、触碰、接触、 然后由此产生了「感觉」。
对吧?
先是从视觉上看到了, 然后是接触,然后有了「感觉」。
接下来又会发生什么呢?
接着思想就会出现了, 思想会说:如果我能坐进那辆汽车 然后一路疾驰,那该有多棒啊。
或者穿上那件衬衫、那件衣服。
所以思想创造出了一个「意象」: 也就是:我拥有了那件衬衫
或者别的什么东西。
当思想创造出意象以后, 欲望 就开始出现了。
你们跟上所有这些了吗? 去探究一下它吧,先生们。 这就是「冥想」的一部分 ——如果你们对此感兴趣的话。
|
|
1:01:53
This is part of meditation if you are interested in it.
Not just sitting cross-legged and going off into some fantasy.
This is part of meditation:
to enquire very deeply into the nature of conflict,
into the nature of desire.
Not what other people say about desire.
The whole Christian concept of suppression of desire:
as you come to serve the Lord, have no desire,
except one desire: to be like him, or whatever it is.
|
1:01:53
冥想并不只是盘腿打坐, 然后进入到某种幻想中。
这就是冥想的一部分: 也就是去非常深入地探询 冲突的本质、 探询欲望的本质。
而不是别人 对于欲望的看法。
整个基督教的理念 就是去压抑欲望:
当你前去侍奉主时, 你不能有欲望, 除了一个欲望:那就是变得像「主」一样 ——或者无论他是什么东西。
|
|
1:02:40
So, seeing, contact, sensation.
Then thought creates the image.
At that moment is the birth of desire,
with all its problems:
controlling it, not controlling it,
accepting it, enjoying it,
with all the consequences of pain, trouble.
And it may also include in it,
it may be one of the causes of fear because I may not get what I want.
I am depressed by it, frustrated by it,
I am afraid I can't get it, and so on.
So I discover that one of the causes of fear is desire.
I am not asking how to be free of desire.
I see the cause,
I perceive the cause.
1:03:38
By the very perception of the cause, something will take place.
I am not going to say I must be free or not free of desire.
That is very important to comprehend.
Then who is it that is going to suppress desire?
Desire itself, surely, isn't it?
I suppress desire because I want another form of desire.
So it is the same movement.
So we are saying, we are not discussing,
or going into the question of suppression at all,
or escaping from it, or transcending it.
We see the movement of desire,
observe it.
|
1:02:40
所以,先是看到,然后是接触、产生感觉, 接着思想创造出了一个意象。
在那一刻, 欲望便产生了,是吧?
随之而来的还有所有欲望相关的问题: 要控制欲望, 不要控制欲望,
接受认可欲望,享受欲望, 以及欲望所造成的 所有痛苦或麻烦的后果。
所以「欲望」或许也应该包含在其中, 它或许也是导致恐惧的原因之一, 因为我可能无法得到我想要的东西。
于是我会为此而感到沮丧、 感到懊恼, 我会害怕我无法得到它, 等等。
所以我发现 导致恐惧的原因之一是「欲望」。
我并没有在询问 如何摆脱掉欲望。
我只是看到了这个原因, 我洞察到了这个原因。 而通过对于原因的洞察, 某些事情就会发生了。
1:03:38
我不会说“我必须摆脱掉欲望” 或者“不要摆脱欲望”。 理解这一点 是非常重要的。
因为那时 是谁要来压抑欲望呢?
毫无疑问,它就是欲望本身,不是吗?
我压抑欲望,是因为我想要 满足另一种形式的欲望。
所以它是同样的运动。
因此我们在说…… 我们根本没有在讨论
或者探究 关于「压抑」的问题, 我们没有在逃避它, 或者要去超越它。
我们只是看到了 欲望的运动, 我们在观察它。

Then we say, is time the factor of fear?
Time – I might die tomorrow,
or ten years later.
I am all right now, but God knows what will happen tomorrow.
Tomorrow is time.
There is time by the universe,
that is, the rising of the sun and the setting of the sun,
night, day, and all the rest of it.
And also there is the inward time.
The inward time which is,
I have had happiness another day,
and I hope I will have it in the future.
Or I have had an experience,
I cling to that experience,
hoping nothing will disturb it.
Or I have had pain, both psychological and physical,
and I hope that will never happen again.
1:06:00
Time is a movement,
and thought is also a movement.
Thought which is born of knowledge.
Knowledge is the result of experience.
We are the result of thousands of years of experience,
thousands of years of knowledge, psychologically.
And you need time to learn a language,
to acquire various capacities.
So there is time outwardly, there is time inwardly.
And thought is also the result of time,
the accumulated knowledge of centuries
stored in the brain as memory
and that memory responds as thought.
This is all facts, it is not my invention.
It is so.

1:04:28
然后我们问, 「时间」是造成恐惧的因素吗?
时间——我也许明天就会死去, 或者十年之后死去。
我现在安然无恙, 但天知道明天将会发生什么。
「明天」就是「时间」。
存在着「宇宙中的时间」, 也就是那种日出 和日落, 白天和黑暗, 等等这些。
此外,我们也有着 “内在的时间”。
“内在的时间”就是: 我曾经度过了 幸福快乐的一天, 所以我希望 未来我还能过这样的日子。
或者我曾经有过某种经验, 然后我会执著于这种经验, 希望没有任何东西可以打扰它。
或者我经历过痛苦——既包括心理上的痛苦、 也包括身体上的痛苦, 于是我希望这种痛苦 永远不要再发生。
1:06:00
「时间」是一种运动, 而「思想」同样也是一种运动。
「思想」 源自于知识。
而知识是 经验的产物。
而我们就是 成千上万年的经验的结果, 数千年的知识 ——心理上的「知识」。
你需要「时间」 来学会一门语言、 掌握各种技能。
所以存在着外在物理上的时间, 也存在着内在心理上的时间。
而思想同样也是 时间的产物, 世世代代 积累下来的知识
它们作为「记忆」储存在大脑里, 而那种记忆产生的反应 便是「思想」。
这些全都是事实, 它并不是我虚构出来的东西。事情就是如此。

So desire,
isolation,
thought, time,
are the factors of fear,
the root cause of fear.
Now, how does one deal with a cause?
You understand my question?
I have found out for myself the cause of fear.
And is it possible
to dispel that cause without effort?
The moment I bring effort into it, it is another form of conflict.
So is it possible to be entirely free of the cause
or the causation which breeds all this?
It is possible only
– please, we are talking over together –
it is possible only when you observe the fact.
1:08:51
That is, when there is the realisation
that the cause is producing all these effects.
And also one knows,
where there is a cause, there is an end.
If I have a cause for tuberculosis
there is the cause, and I cough, and all the rest of it.
Now, there is medicine to cure tuberculosis,
there is the end of it.
Where there is a cause, the effect can be wiped away.
So I am asking: I have found the cause,
how am I to deal with it, what is to happen with it?
You understand my question?
Any movement on my part,
that is, any movement of desire
to say, I must be free of fear,
I must be free of this cause,
That is another form of desire – right?
1:10:04
So I realise, any movement of thought,
any movement of the urge to be free,
is part of the same thing.
So can I observe without any movement of thought or time?
Just to observe, and remain with the cause,
not move away from the cause.
You are following all this?
That requires tremendous, close attention.

1:07:23
所以欲望、 孤立、
思想、时间, 它们就是造成恐惧的因素、 就是恐惧的根源所在。
那么,我们要如何去处理 那个原因呢?
你们理解我的问题吗?
我已经亲自发现了 恐惧的原因。
那么我是否可能…… 毫不费力地 消除掉那个原因呢?
因为一旦我为此作出努力, 它就成了另一种形式的冲突了。
是吧?
所以,我们是否可能 完全地摆脱掉那个
滋生了所有这一切的 原因 或者说 起因?
要让这件事成为可能,只有当
——请注意, 我们正在一起讨论它—— 只有当你去观察事实时 才可能。
1:08:51
也就是 当你了悟到…… 是那个原因 制造出了所有这些结果时。
此外,我们也知道了: 当有了一个「起因」, 便会有一个「结束」。
如果我因为某个原因 而得了肺结核, 因为有了这个原因, 于是我便会咳嗽,等等这些。
而现在,有一种药物 可以治愈肺结核, 于是肺结核这个病就结束了。
当存在一个原因, 那么「结果」就是可以被消除的。
所以我要问的是: 我已经找到了原因, 那么我该如何去处理它呢?
这个原因会发生什么呢?
你们理解我的问题吗?
任何我这一方的活动, 换句话说:任何欲望的活动
——比如说“我必须摆脱掉恐惧, 我必须摆脱掉这个原因”, 这都只是另一种形式的欲望 ——对吧?
1:10:04
所以我意识到: 任何思想的活动、 任何渴望 解脱自由的活动, 它都只是同一个事物的其中一部分。
所以,我能否没有任何思想或时间的运动 而去观察呢?
只是去观察, 然后和那个「原因」待在一起, 而不要离开那个「原因」。
你们跟上所有这些了吗? 这需要巨大的、 密切的注意力。

So one has to enquire much further into the nature of attention.
It is not for the moment, today.
We'll do it another day.
But to be aware of the cause
and to have no choice about the cause.
To go beyond it, suppress it, run away from it,
– just to look at it, hold it.
When you give your whole attention to that cause,
that very attention is like a fire that dispels the cause.
Right, that is enough for today.
|
1:10:45
所以我们必须要进一步地去探询 「注意」的本质。 不是今天这个时候。 我们改天再来探讨它吧。
但我们需要觉察到那个原因, 并且不要对这个原因 “做出选择”。
不要试图去超越它、 压制它、逃离它 ——而只是去看着它、捧着它。
当你全神贯注于 那个原因, 这份「注意」就会如同火焰一般, 烧毁掉那个原因。
好了,今天讲到这里就够了吧。
