瑞士 萨嫩
1978年7月28日

0:20 K: What shall we talk about, this morning? No questions? Questioner: What does meditation mean in daily life? Would you explain that, please? 0:20 克里希那穆提(以下简称“克”): 今天早上我们要来谈点什么呢? 没有问题吗?

提问者:「冥想」在日常生活中意味着什么?
你可以解释一下它吗?
0:40 K: What does meditation mean in daily life – is that the question, sir? 0:40 克:「冥想」在日常生活中意味着什么 ——是这个问题吗,先生?
0:48 Q: What is personality? 0:48 提问者:什么是「人格」?
0:58 K: What is personality? I really don’t know. 0:58 克:什么是「人格」?我其实也不知道。
1:06 Q: (In French) 1:06 提问者:(用法语说话)
2:56 K: I understand. I think, as far as I can make out, the questioner is asking, as I am walking along something happens in me, and that moves me very much, and gradually that disappears. Again, it comes. He’s hurt by what he sees around him. Yeah, that’s it. He sees there is suffering and he goes through it. 2:56 克:我明白了。 我认为就我所能理解的而言, 这位提问者在问: 当我走开的时候,我内心发生了某些事情, 它深深地触动了我,然后它又逐渐消失了。 接着它又再次出现了。 他被自己所看到的周围的情况所伤害了。 是的,就是这样。 他看到了痛苦,并且他也经历了痛苦。
3:51 Q: No, he sees contradiction. He said when he saw someone speaking as soon as you leave the tent, or something, he feels the contradiction between what has been said and what is actually taking place, outside. 3:51 提问者:不是,他看到了「矛盾」。 他说:在你一离开帐篷之后,他看到了某些人在讲话 或者做了某些事情, 他对此感到了一种矛盾 ——也就是你之前所说的东西 和外部世界中实际发生事情之间的矛盾。
4:10 K: He’s hurt, shocked, suffers, when he sees what actually is going on around him, outside, and this contradiction: what is said here, and what is actually going on outside. What is one to do? That’s it? 4:10 克:他受到了伤害,他感到震惊和痛苦 ——因为他看到了自己周围、外部世界中 实际发生的事情, 于是有了这种矛盾:即我们在这里所说的东西 和外部世界中实际发生的事情之间的矛盾。 所以他该怎么办呢?是这样吧?
4:42 Any other questions? 4:42 还有其他问题吗?
4:43 Q: How can consciousness be conscious of itself, totally? 4:43 提问者:「意识」如何才能完全地意识到它自己?
4:57 K: How can consciousness be aware of itself? How can consciousness be aware of itself? I was going to talk about that a little bit, this morning, if you want. 4:57 克:「意识」如何才能觉察到它自身? 「意识」怎样才能够觉察到它自己? 今天早上我会来稍微探讨一下它的 ——如果你们想要听的话。
5:19 So, there’re these questions. Any more? One, what place has meditation in daily life? One sees the world in such contradiction, what is going on around us, there is so much suffering and so on and it is quite the opposite of what is being said, here, what is one to do? 5:19 好了,我们已经有了这些问题。 还有另外问题吗? 一个问题是:「冥想」在日常生活中的位置是什么? (还有一个问题是)我们看到这个世界 处于如此的矛盾之中, 看到了我们周围所发生着的事情…… 我们有着如此多的痛苦,等等, 它们和这里所讲的内容是截然相反的, 那么我们该怎么做呢?
5:53 Q: Why is man afraid of truth? 5:53 提问者:为什么人会害怕真理?
5:58 K: Why is man afraid of truth? 5:58 克:为什么人会害怕真理?
6:08 Q: Could you say a few words about the healing energies? 6:08 提问者:你能够稍微讲讲「疗愈能量」吗?
6:12 K: Could you talk about the energy that heals. 6:12 克:你能够谈论一下具有疗愈效果的能量吗?
6:25 Q: (Inaudible) 6:25 提问者:(听不见的声音)
6:55 K: The first part of the question I understood, sir, but the second part I don’t quite follow. He has been initiated – please, don’t laugh – he has been initiated into something which guru Maharajji, that is the boy has initiated him. And though he has lived with it, he’s not liberated, he’s unable to surrender. All right. Now, wait a minute, that’s enough. 6:55 克:先生,我能够听懂问题的第一部分, 但第二部分我不是很理解。 (问题说的是)他已经接受了“启蒙” ——请你们不要笑—— 他已经接受了某种启蒙,那是古鲁马哈拉吉 也就是那个男孩启蒙了他。 然而尽管他带着这种启蒙生活, 却依然未能解脱, 他无法让自己臣服。 好了。现在,稍等一下,这些问题已经够了。
7:42 What is meditation in daily life? Why is man frightened of truth? Can consciousness be aware of itself? And why is it when we are here, together, in the tent and when we go out we see such contradiction and that makes one anxious, suffer and also, the last question, which he’s been initiated by somebody and he’s unable to surrender himself to what he thinks he should surrender to – that’s what the gentleman says. Now, which of these questions would you like to go into? 7:42 「冥想」在日常生活中是什么角色呢? 为什么人会害怕真理? 「意识」能够觉察到它自己吗? 以及 为什么当我们一起在这里、 在这个帐篷里时是这样的, 而当我们走出去以后, 我们却看到了如此矛盾的景象, 这让我们感到焦虑和痛苦, 此外,还有最后一个问题,那就是: 他已经接受了某人的“启蒙”, 但他却无法让自己臣服 臣服于那个他认为他应该臣服于的东西 ——这就是那位先生所问的东西。 现在,你们想要来探讨哪一个问题呢?
8:50 Q: Can consciousness be aware of itself? 8:50 提问者:「意识」能否觉察到它自身?
8:55 K: Would you like to talk over, together, the question, which that gentleman raised, can consciousness be aware of itself? Would you like to go into that? That is, can thought – we’ll begin slowly, go into it, slowly – can thought be aware of itself? That is, can thinking be aware of the root of its thought, the movement of thinking, and all the process of thought, can that movement be aware of itself? That is the question that was raised, not only by that gentleman, it was also raised by somebody over there, yesterday morning. The same question, can the mind, with all its content, which is never still, which is always active, moving, can that movement be aware of itself? 8:55 克:你们想要一起来谈谈这个问题吗, 也就是那位先生所提出的问题: 「意识」能否觉察到它自己? 你们想要来探讨下它吗? 也就是说,思想是否能够…… ——我们将会慢慢地开始,慢慢地来进入它—— 思想能够觉察到它自己吗? 换句话说,思考能否觉察到其思想的根源、 觉察到思考的运动 和思想的全部过程呢? 那种「运动」能够觉察到它自己吗? 就是这个问题,它不只是那位先生在问, 昨天早上,那里也有个人提出了这个问题。 同样的问题,那就是:头脑及其全部的内容 ——头脑永远停不下来, 它总是活跃着,总是在运动着, 那么这种运动可以觉察到它自身吗?
10:27 Why do you want to know? Why do you want know such a problem? Is it just...? I want to find out. When you put that question, why are you putting it? Because if you are serious about the matter, it’s one of the most… it demands a great deal of attention to find out whether thought, the thinking, can be aware of its own movement. Either you have put it out of curiosity, just some question to ask, or you’re asking that question to eliminate, totally, the division between the thinker and the thought. Do you understand my question? Perhaps, we’ll go into this 10:27 为什么你们想要知道它? 为什么你们想要知道这个问题的答案? 是不是只是因为……? 我想要搞清楚的是 当你问这个问题时,为什么你要问它? 因为如果你对这个问题是认真的, 那么它就是最为 你需要付出大量的注意力去搞清楚它, 也就是:「思想」「思考」能否觉察它自身的运动。 要么你是出于好奇而提出了这个问题, 只是找个问题问一下, 要么……你之所以问这个问题 是为了完全地消除掉 思想者和思想之间的分裂。 你们能理解我的问题吗? 或许我们可以来探讨一下它
11:51 when we also consider what place has meditation in daily life. And can you surrender yourself to somebody – that’s what that gentleman asked. 11:51 ——因为我们同样也要来思考一下 「冥想」在日常生活中的位置是什么。 以及你是否能够让自己臣服于某人 ——这就是那位先生在问的。
12:10 Can we dispose of that last question? That is somebody with some – you know, all the rest of it, these gurus – they come and say, ‘Surrender yourself to me. I know, you don’t, but give yourself over to me and I will help you. Give over your property, your money, your everything, and you won’t have any money problem after that’ – you follow? This is the actual fact that’s going on in the world. We are so terribly gullible. 13:02 The same pattern has been repeated by the churches all over the world – surrender yourself to God, to Christ, to this, give over everything that you have, we’ll look after you, join. And they promise this. And, at the end, where are you? No money. Many people have come to the speaker with this problem, given over everything they have – houses, property, money – you understand? – left their homes, and then the man is off, the guru is off in some kind of lovely house and you’re stuck. 14:03 So, the first thing is, with regard to that, don’t accept any authority. Right? There is the authority of a first class surgeon but in so-called spiritual matters, in matters of the mind and psychology there is no authority, so nobody can initiate you into something. That’s just one of those tricks that human beings play on others. 12:10 我们可以先来处理一下最后一个问题吗? 也就是:某个人,他有着某种 ——你知道的,所有那些东西、 那些古鲁—— 他们过来说,“请你臣服于我吧。 我知晓一切,而你并不知晓, 然而当你把自己交给我,我就会帮助你。 交出你的财产、你的钱、你所有的东西, 在这之后,你就不会再有任何钱的问题了 ——你们跟上了吗? 这就是世界上正在实际发生着的事情。 我们是如此容易受骗上当。 13:02 而全世界的教会也在重复着同样的模式 ——让你臣服于上帝、臣服于基督、 臣服于这个那个, 把你所拥有的一切都交出来, 我们将会来照顾你,加入我们吧。 他们作出了这种承诺。 而到了最后,你又怎么样了呢? 你一贫如洗了。 很多人曾经过来找演讲者 谈及这个问题: 他们交出了自己所拥有的一切东西 ——房子、财产、金钱——你懂吧? 离开了自己的家, 然后那个人却消失无影了, 那个古鲁跑路了,他住到了某幢漂亮的大房子里, 而你却陷入了困境。 14:03 所以,对于这个问题, 第一件事就是:不要接受任何权威。 好吧? 我们需要有一流外科医生的权威, 然而在所谓的“灵性事务”上、 在涉及到「心灵」和「心理」的事情上, 是没有什么权威的, 所以没有人可以“启蒙”你什么东西。 那只是某些人对别人耍的把戏之一。
14:42 The next question is, what place has meditation in life, in daily life? Or meditation is something separate from daily life. Or you introduce the idea of meditation into daily life. You understand? There’re three problems and more involved in it. That is, you’re introducing the idea of meditation – the idea – and trying to find out what place that idea has in daily life. First of all, is it an idea – that you must meditate, that you must do this, that you must do that – come to a conclusion and introduce that concept into daily life? 16:07 Right? Right, sir? You’ve understood that question? Or try to find out what relationship action has with the total awareness of consciousness. I don’t know, this may be a little... That is, why should one meditate at all? We lead our daily life, rather unhappily, shoddily, conflict, misery, suffering, deceived by others and so on. That’s our daily life. Why do you want to introduce meditation into that? Or in the understanding of conflict, sorrow, arrogance, pride, and so on, in understanding the meaning, the structure of these things, the reactions, that is part of meditation. 17:47 Not you meditate and then introduce into action, into daily life, but rather during the daily life, when you go to the office, when you are working in the factory, or ploughing a field, or talking to your wife, or husband, girl, or boy you are aware of your reactions and the comprehension of those reactions, the understanding, not intellectually but why you are jealous, why this state of anxiety exists in you, why you accept authority, why you depend on another, in the investigation of those things that exploration itself is meditation not the other way round. 18:56 If you meditate and then introduce that what you think is meditation in daily life, there’s conflict. You think this is so, and you’re bringing that into action, in daily life, so there must be contradiction. Whereas, if one is envious, as most of us are, what is the nature of envy, why are we envious, not right or wrong, we should not be, or should be, why does this envy arise? In enquiring into that, and freeing through enquiry greed, envy, that is the movement of meditation. 20:03 In that there is no conflict, you’re enquiring, constantly. Right? This demands your attention, this demands that you must be serious, not just play with words. 14:42 下一个问题就是:「冥想」在生活中 ——在日常生活中——的位置是什么? 或者说:冥想是某种和日常生活相分离的事物。 或者,你将“冥想”的想法 引入了日常生活。 你们理解了吗? 这其中涉及到了 三个、甚至更多的问题。 也就是说,你正在将“冥想”这个想法 ——它只是一个想法——引入进来, 然后试图去发现:这个“想法” 在日常生活中要扮演什么样的角色。 首先,它只是一个想法吗 ——即你必须要去冥想, 你必须要去做这个、做那个—— 然后得出某个结论, 并将这个概念引入到日常生活中? 16:07 对吗?对吧,先生? 你理解这个问题了吗? 还是说:你会试图去发现 「行动」和「完全觉察意识」之间 有什么样的关系。 我不知道,这也许有一点 换句话说:我们究竟为什么要冥想? 我们所过的日常生活是非常不快乐、 非常低质量的, 它有着冲突、不幸、痛苦, 被他人所欺骗,等等。 这就是我们的日常生活。 那么为什么你想要为其引入「冥想」呢? 还是说:就在了解冲突、苦难、 自大、傲慢等等事物之中, 了解这些事物的意义和结构, 了解那些反应 ——这些就是「冥想」的一部分。 17:47 不是你去冥想,然后再将其引入到「行动」中、 引入到日常生活中, 而是在日常生活的过程中: 当你去办公室上班, 当你在工厂工作 或者耕田犁地的时候, 当你和你的妻子或者丈夫、 或者女朋友或男朋友交谈的时候, 你会觉察到你的各种反应, 然后你理解了这些反应, 它并不是思想智力上的了解, 而是:为什么你会嫉妒, 为什么你会处于这种焦虑的状态中, 为什么你接受了权威, 为什么你会依赖于别人, 在探究这些事物的过程中, 这种「探究」本身就是「冥想」 ——而不是反过来。 18:56 如果你是先冥想, 然后再将你所认为的“冥想” 引入到日常生活中, 那么就会有冲突了。 你认为它应该是这样的, 然后你将这种观念带入到行动中、 带入到日常生活中, 因此就必然会有「矛盾」。 然而,如果我们是嫉妒的 ——我们大多数人都是嫉妒的—— (那就去搞清楚)嫉妒的本质是什么, 为什么我们是嫉妒的, 不是 嫉妒是对还是错, 或者我们应该嫉妒、还是不应该嫉妒, 而是:为什么这种嫉妒心会升起? 就在探询它的过程中, 通过探询 从而摆脱贪婪、嫉妒 ——这便是「冥想」的运动。 20:03 在这之中是没有冲突的, 你只是在持续不断地询问。 对吧? 这需要你保持「注意」, 这需要你必须是认真严肃的, 而不只是在玩弄文字。
20:34 So, meditation has a place in daily life when there is an enquiry into the whole nature and structure of your being – of your reactions, what is the state of your consciousness, why you believe, don’t believe, why you are influenced by institutions and so on and so on – all that is an actual movement of meditation. Right? If one is actually, not theoretically, actually doing it then you begin to understand the nature of consciousness. Right? You are not imposing something on it, according to Freud, according to some psychologist, some guru, or somebody or other. You are enquiring into your whole being, that being is your consciousness. 20:34 所以「冥想」在日常生活中 有着它的位置 ——当你去探询 你自身存在的全部本质与结构, 去探询你的各种反应, 你的意识处于怎样的状态, 为什么你会相信,为什么你不相信, 为什么你会被机构团体所影响, 等等 等等 ——所有这些才是 真正的「冥想」的运动。 好吧? 如果我们切实地去做它 ——不是理论上的,而是真正实际地去做它, 那么你就会开始理解「意识」的本质。 对吧? 你并没有把什么东西强加于它 ——去遵循佛洛依德或某个心理学家的观点, 去遵循某个古鲁、这个或那个人的说法。 你正在探询你自身的整个「存在」, 而这种「存在」就是「你的意识」。
22:09 So, we have answered these questions and we have come to that point. So, let’s begin very simply and go into it, if you’re willing. I wonder if you have ever enquired into the whole movement of thought, the whole activity of thinking and whether thought, thinking, can see itself moving. You understand my question? Let’s be clear that the question is clear. So, please, this is rather important if you want to go into it, if you’re at all serious in this matter, and it is really very important to comprehend the question, first. 23:32 Which is, I can say, ‘I am aware of my consciousness’ through my belief, through my fears, through my pleasures, through my sorrow. So, the content of my consciousness I can be aware of by saying, ‘Yes, I’m afraid, I am greedy, I suffer, I am arrogant, I have pride’ and so on, which is the content of consciousness of which I am aware. Right? So, there is in that, ‘I am different from my consciousness.’ Right? Does this interest you? I hope so. 22:09 所以,我们已经回答了这些问题, 并且我们已经讨论到了这一点。 因此让我们非常简单地开始,然后去深入它 ——如果你们也愿意的话。 我不知道你们是否曾经探询过 思想的整个运动、 探询过思考的全部活动, 以及思想、思考是否能够 看到它自身的运动。 你们能理解我的问题吗? 让我们先明确 自己已经清楚了这个问题。 所以,请注意,这一点是相当重要的 ——如果你想要深入这个问题、 如果你对这个问题真的很认真的话, 那就是首先要去理解这个问题 ——这点真的非常重要。 23:32 也就是:我可以说,“我觉察到了我的意识”, 经由我的信仰、我的恐惧、 我的各种快乐、我的痛苦而意识到了它。 所以,我是可以觉察到我意识的内容的 ——因为我会说,“是的,我很害怕、 我很贪婪、我很痛苦、 我很傲慢、我很骄傲”等等, 这些就是意识的内容 ——而我可以觉察感知到它们。 对吧? 所以这其中有这么一个问题, “我和「我的意识」是有所不同的。 ” 是吧? 你们对这个有兴趣吗?我希望你们有兴趣。
24:38 So, there is the ‘me,’ the observer observing his consciousness. But the ‘me’ is greedy, the ‘me’ is anxious, the ‘me’ is frightened, the ‘me’ is full of anxiety, uncertainty, sorrow, which is my consciousness, so I am not different from my consciousness. Right? Is that clear? I am not different from what I think. I am not different from the experiences I have had. I am not different or something totally opposite to my anxiety, fears, and all the rest of it. I am all that. I may think I am God, but the very thinking is part of me, which invents God. I hope you see all this. 24:38 所以存在着一个“我”、一个观察者 在观察着他自己的意识。 然而那个“我”就是贪婪、 那个“我”就是焦虑, 那个“我”是担惊受怕的、 那个“我”充满了焦虑、不确定和痛苦 ——而这些东西就是我的意识, 所以我和我的意识并没有什么不同。 对吧? 这点清楚了吗? 我和我所想的东西并没有什么不同。 我和我所经历体验过的东西 并没有不同。 我与我的焦虑、我的恐惧等等 并不是不同的或者是某种截然相反的东西, 我就是所有这些东西。 我也许会认为我就是上帝, 然而这种「思考」本身就是“我”的一部分, 是它发明出了“上帝”。 我希望你们都看到了这一切。
25:53 So, then we come to the question: if the observer is the observed, which is the consciousness, then the question arises, can that consciousness be aware of its own movements? To put it very, very simply, is there an awareness of the arising of anger – anger itself – so that there is not me different from anger? Please, you don’t mind my going into it, a little bit? Are you interested in all this? 25:53 所以,接下来,我们就遇到了这个问题: 如果观察者就是被观察物 ——也就是「意识」的话, 那么问题就来了: 这种「意识」能否觉察到它自身的活动呢? 非常、非常简单地来说, 我们是否能够觉察到 愤怒的升起 ——觉察「愤怒」本身—— 由此便不再会有一个 不同于「愤怒」的“我”了? 你们不介意我稍微深入一下它吧, 好吗? 你们对所有这些东西有兴趣吗?
26:50 Let’s go into it. One is angry, at the moment of anger, there is no recognition as being angry. Right? Have you noticed? At the second, at the moment of intense anger, there’s only that state. Later on, you call it ‘anger.’ Right? A second later. Which means that you have recognised from the past that which has happened in the past, and which is happening now, and you say, ‘Yes, that’s anger.’ Right? Are you following? So, please follow this. 28:00 There’s anger, at the moment of anger, there is no recognition and the naming of that reaction. A second later the naming begins, the naming is from the past, the naming is the recognition from the past, the present reaction. So, can you not name the present reaction, but just observe without naming it? The moment you name it, you have recognised it and so strengthened the reaction. I wonder if you see this. Very interesting. 26:50 让我们来探究一下它吧。 某人很愤怒, 在愤怒的那一刻, 并不存在对于那种愤怒的「识别」。 对吧? 你们注意到这点了吗? 在强烈愤怒的那个片刻、那个瞬间, 存在的只有那种(愤怒的)状态。 只是愤怒过后,你才将其称为“愤怒”。 对吧? 在那个片刻过去以后。 这意味着你经由「过去」而认出了 这个过去曾经发生过的东西(即愤怒), 它现在又发生了, 于是你说,“是的,它就是愤怒”。 对吧? 你们理解了吗? 所以……请你们跟上它。 28:00 愤怒出现了,在愤怒的那一刻, 是不存在对于这种反应(愤怒)的识别 与命名的。 只是片刻之后,这种命名才开始了, 「命名」是来自于「过去」的, 命名就是经由「过去」 来识别当下的反应。 所以,你能否不要去命名当下的反应, 只是去观察它而没有命名? 因为一旦你命名了它, 你就已经识别了它, 从而便增强了那种反应。 我不知道你们是否看到了这一点。 这是非常有趣的。
28:58 That is, the word is not the thing. The word ‘tent,’ the ‘marquee’ is not the actual fact, but we are carried away by the word and not by the fact. So, to comprehend, to see that the word has become tremendously important, and see the fact, the word is not the thing. So, when there is anger, which is a reaction, to observe it without naming it and so that reaction begins to wither away. The moment you name it you have strengthened it, the strengthening is from the past. 28:58 换句话说,「词语文字」并不是它所指的那个东西。 “帐篷”、“大帐篷”这些词 并不是那个现实中的东西, 然而我们沉溺于词语文字 而没有着眼于事实。 所以,我们要理解、要看到: 那就是词语文字 已经变得极其重要了, 去看到这个事实: 即词语文字并不是它所指的东西。 所以,当愤怒出现时 ——愤怒就是一种反应—— 去观察它、而不要去命名它, 由此那种反应就会开始枯萎消退。 因为一旦你命名它,你就已经强化了它, 这种「强化」是源自于「过去」的。
30:19 So, if that is clear, we can go the next step. Which is, is it possible for the senses, which is the reaction of the senses, for the senses to be aware of themselves, not you are aware of the senses, but the senses themselves open? I’ll go into it. Don’t be... If you will kindly not follow what I am saying but kindly observe in yourself the reactions of the senses. Right? 30:19 所以,如果这一点清楚了, 那我们就可以继续下一步了。 那就是:对于「感觉」来说,它是否可能 ——「感觉」就是感官的反应, 要让「感觉」觉察到它们自己, 不是你觉察到那些感觉, 而是那些感觉自己能够保持开放? 我将会来深入它。 所以请不要 请你不要跟从我所说的东西, 而是去观察一下你内心的 各种感官反应。好吗?
31:26 Now, we function… our senses function, separately – seeing, tasting, hearing, smelling and so on. They’re all separate. You understand? Now, can you observe…? Is there a total movement of all the senses, together? You’ve understood something of what I’m saying? You understand, this is really quite fascinating to find out, because then you will see if you are observing… if there is an observation of a person, of the movement of the waters of a sea, or the mountains, the birds, anything, or your friend, or your intimate person, if there is an observation with all the senses, then there is no centre from which you are observing. 33:00 You get it? Please do it, do it, test it out. Don’t accept anything the speaker is saying. Test it out, for yourself. When you smell something lovely, a perfume of an early morning, when the air is clean, washed out by the rain and there is beauty in the land and so on, is one particular sense awake, or you are observing the total delicacy and the beauty of the morning with all your senses? You understand? Yes? Yes, sir? 31:26 你瞧,我们的运作方式是…… 我们的感官都是各自独立地运作的 ——视觉、味觉、听觉、嗅觉等等。 它们全都是分开的。 你们能听懂吗? 那么,你能否这样子去观察……? 即 所有的感官能否一起共同运作? 你们能理解一点我在说的东西吗? 你知道的,去发现它真的是一件 很令人着迷的事情, 因为那时你就会看到 ——如果你在观察的话 如果你去观察一个人, 去观察河水或大海的流动, 或者观察高山、观察鸟儿, 观察任何东西,或者观察你的朋友、 观察与你亲密的人, 如果你能动用所有的感官去观察, 那时就不会有一个 你基于它而去观察的「中心」了。 33:00 你们明白它了吗? 请你们这样去做一下,去做它,去试验一下它。 不要接受演讲者所说的任何东西。 而是自己去试验一下它。 当你闻到了某种好闻的气味、 闻到了清晨的芬芳, 那时空气清新,仿佛被雨水洗过了一样, 而大地也是如此美丽,等等, 于是你的某种感官被唤醒了, 还是说,你会运用你全部的感官去观察 清晨所有的美丽与娇嫩? 你们能理解吗? 理解了吧? 这位先生,请说。
34:00 Q: If I see that I’m not different from the total content of my consciousness, and the question as to whether I can be conscious of my unconsciousness seems to be rather like asking can a camera take a photograph of itself. 34:00 提问者:如果我看到 「我」和我意识的全部内容并没有区别, 那么对于“我能否意识到我的潜意识” 这个问题来说, 它看起来就像是在问: 一台照相机能否给它自己拍张照。
34:18 K: But, sir, look, I’m coming to that point. I am slowly leading up to that. If you don’t mind. Because unless you understand the sensory responses, whether the sensory responses are broken up – you follow? – or is there the response of all the senses, together? If there is response of a particular sense, sensation, then what takes place? You understand? When there is only the reaction of a scent, through the nose, then all the other senses are more or less in abeyance. Right? Right, sir? Test it, test it out. So, I’m asking, when you smell a flower, is there total response of all the senses, not only smelling, the whole organism responding with its senses? I wonder if I’m making this clear. No, sir, don’t agree. 34:18 克:但是先生,你瞧,我正要来讲这一点。 我会慢慢地来谈到它的 ——如果你不介意的话。 因为除非你理解了各种感官的反应, 各种感官反应是否是分离独立的 ——你跟上了吗? —— 还是说,存在着一种所有感官的 完整一体的反应? 如果只有某一种感官、感觉的反应, 那时会发生什么呢? 你们能理解吗? 如果只存在经由鼻子而来的 对于香味的反应, 那么所有其他感官或多或少就会中止了。 对吧? 是吧,先生? 去试验一下,去测试一下它。 所以,我在问的是:当你闻一朵花时, 你所有的感官是否在共同作出反应 ——而不是只有嗅觉, 而是整个有机体运用它全部的感官 在作出反应? 我不知道我是否把它表达清楚了。 不,先生,请不要同意。
36:16 Q: (Italian) Please, when the train has passed, the train has a noise. I have listened to it only with my hearing. How is it possible to listen with all the senses? 36:16 提问者:(意大利语)请问, 当火车经过的时候,它会发出噪音。 我只是凭借我的听觉而听到了它。 我又怎么可能动用 所有的感官去聆听它呢?
36:27 K: Yes, he hears the noise of that train going by – that’s a very good question. You all heard that train going by – right? Did you respond to that noise, completely? You understand, sir? So that there is no resistance to the noise, there is no irritation from the noise. You are totally with the noise. Look at those mountains, which you have looked, probably, everyday and every evening and morning, not only with your eyes, optically you see it, but is there a perception of that mountain with all your senses, being? 37:49 If there is, there is no centre from which you’re being, from which you are looking. Test it out. You can’t do it, now. You can do it if you look at the tent, or look at your friend, or anybody, look as though you’re looking with all your being and your senses. Then you will see that you’re looking at something for the first time, not with jaded eyes and memory and so on. We’ll come to that. 36:27 克:我明白了,他听到了火车经过时的噪音 ——这是一个非常好的问题。 你们都听到了那辆火车经过的声音——是吧? 那么你们有没有完整完全地 对那个噪音作出反应呢? 你能理解吗,先生? 这样的话, 你就不会有对于那个噪音的抵触之情了, 你不会因为那种噪音而烦躁。 你会全然地与那个噪音共处。 去观察一下那些高山, 它们也许是你每天都会看到的, 每天早上和晚上都会看到 不只是用你的眼睛去看, 经由视觉而看到它, 而是你能否运用你所有的感官与存在 去感知那座高山? 37:49 如果可以的话,那么就不会有一个中心 一个你基于它而去观察的中心了。 去试验一下它吧。 虽然你现在无法这么做。 当你看这个帐篷、看你的朋友或者任何人时, 你就可以这样去做, 看他们的时候就好像是 你在运用你全部的存在和感官在看。 那时你就会发现, 你仿佛是第一次在看那个东西, 而不是带着厌倦的目光与记忆等等在看他。 我们将会来探究这一点。
38:36 So, the question then, from there, arises – not necessarily from there but further along – can thought be aware of itself? I don’t think you understand this. Or are we entering into something very, very complex and unnecessary? You’re all very silent. 38:36 所以,从这之中便产生出了一个问题 ——不一定是从它之中, 而是更进一步的问题—— 那就是:思想能够觉察它自己吗? 我并不认为你们能理解它。 或者说,我们正在深入探讨某个 非常非常复杂却毫无必要的东西? 你们全都沉默不语了。
39:21 Q: Can’t we test it now by the hearing, the total hearing? What you have previously said… 39:21 提问者:我们现在难道不能通过聆听来试验一下它吗, 试验一下那种完全的聆听? 也就是你之前所说的
39:31 K: Yes, but I’m asking the next question sir, which is, you’re thinking now, aren’t you? When I ask you a question the whole movement of thinking arises. Right? Obviously. Now, I’m asking whether that thinking itself sees itself thinking? No, it’s not possible. Right? 39:31 克:是的,但我已经在问 下一个问题了,先生, 也就是:你现在正在思考,不是吗? 当我问了你一个问题, 那么整个思考的活动就会开始了。 对吧? 这是很显然的。 而现在,我正在问:那种「思考」本身 是否看到了自己正在思考? 不,这是不可能的。是吧?
40:16 Q: We have always the impression that there is someone that is thinking but it thinks it is another thing. We have always this impression, here, or in another part of my body. 40:16 提问者:我们总是会有这种不实的感觉: 那就是“某人”正在思考, “某人”会认为自己是另一个事物。 我们总是会有这种不实的感觉,它要么是从这里、 要么是从身体的其他部分冒出来的。
40:27 K: That’s why, sir, you haven’t probed into this matter, very deeply. Forgive me, for saying so, but I’m just asking. You see, I’m asking something, which is, can one live a life without having a single conflict, a single effort, without any form of control? Please, listen to this. Because we live with effort, we struggle. Right? There is always achieving, moving, and so our life is lived in constant struggle, constant battle, constant contradiction. Right? ‘I must do this, I must not do that,’ ‘I must control myself, why should I control myself, that’s old-fashioned, I’ll do what I want to do.’ 41:59 All that is a movement of violence. Right? Right, sir? Now, if one is enquiring, is it possible to live without any shadow of control? Which doesn’t mean doing everything you want to do, which is too childish because you can’t. The permissiveness – now they are turning the other way round. They see the danger of it, so they don’t allow permissiveness, control. Now, I’m asking is it possible to live without any control? Probably, you’ve never asked this question of yourself. Now, I’m asking you. Where there is control, there is conflict. 43:15 Right? There’s a battle going on, which expresses itself in many, many different ways, this battle – violence, suppression, neuroticism, and permissiveness, all that goes on. So, I’m asking myself and you, whether I can live a daily life without a shadow of control? To live that way I have to find out who is the controller. You understand? Is the controller different from the controlled? And if they are both the same, there is no need for control. I wonder if you understand this. 40:27 克:所以,先生,你还没有 非常深入地去探究过这个问题。 请原谅我这么说,我只是在询问。 你瞧,我问了某个问题, 也就是:我们能否去过这样一种生活: 在其中没有丝毫的冲突和努力, 也没有任何形式的控制? 请你们听好它。 因为我们的生活中充满了努力, 我们会努力奋斗。 对吧? 我们一直在追求成功、一直在前进, 因此我们的生活处于持续不断斗争的状态中, 持续不断的战斗、持续不断的矛盾。 是吧? “我必须这样做,我绝不能那样做”, “我必须控制我自己”, 或者“为什么我要自我控制, 那都是过时老套的观念了, 我要去做任何我想要做的事。” 41:59 而上述这些全都是「暴力的运动」。对吧? 是这样吧,先生? 而现在,我们是否可以问一下: 我们的生活是否可能 没有丝毫「控制」的阴影? 这并不意味着 你就可以去做任何想做的事了 ——这就太幼稚了,因为这不现实。 那些自我放纵的人 ——如今他们转向了反面。 他们看到了放纵的危险所在, 于是他们不再允许放纵,而是开始「控制」。 而现在,我在问的是: 我们是否可能没有任何控制地去生活? 你们或许从来没有问过自己这个问题。 而现在,我正在问你们。 当有了「控制」,就会有「冲突」。 43:15 对吧? 那种斗争会持续进行着, 它会以无数不同方式而表现出来, 那种斗争——它会表现为暴力、 压抑、神经质、 和放纵,所有这些都会发生。 所以,我问自己、也问你: 我是否可以去过一种 没有「控制」阴影的日常生活呢? 要过这样子的生活,我就必须去搞清楚 谁才是那个「控制者」。 你们明白了吗? 那个控制者是否有别于 被控制的事物? 因为如果它们是同一个东西, 那就不需要去控制了。 我不知道你们是否理解了它。
44:26 That is, sir, I am jealous because you have got everything and I’ve got nothing. And from that jealousy arises anger, hatred, envy, a sense of violence to have all that you have, and if I can’t get it, I get bitter, angry, all the rest of it follows. Right? So, can I live without jealousy, which means without comparison? Test it out, sir. Can you live your daily life without comparing at all? Of course, there is comparing when I chose this kind of trouser, I’m not talking about that. 45:52 I am talking psychologically, not to have any sense of measurement, which is comparison. If you have no measurement at all, will you decay, will you become a vegetable, do nothing? You understand? Stagnate? Or because you are comparing, because you are struggling, you think you are living, but if you don’t struggle it may be a totally different form of living. 44:26 换句话说,先生,我很嫉妒, 因为你拥有了一切, 而我却啥都没有。 而从这种嫉妒之中, 就产生出了愤怒、仇恨和妒忌, 一种暴力感,想要获得你所拥有的一切东西, 如果我无法得到它,我就会心怀怨恨、愤愤不平, 所有这些东西都随之而来了。 对吧? 所以,我能否没有嫉妒地生活呢? ——也就是没有「比较」地去生活? 去试验一下它,先生。 你能否完全没有「比较」地 去过你的日常生活? 当然了,在我选择裤子款式的时候, 我需要比较 ——但我说的并不是这类事情。 45:52 我说的是:在心理上, 不要有任何的「量度」感, ——量度感就是「比较」。 如果你完全没有任何「量度」, 你就会衰败吗? 你就会变成植物人、啥事儿都不干了吗? 你们能理解吗? 你就会停滞不前了吗? 还是说,因为你在比较,因为你在努力奋斗, 所以你会觉得自己是活着的, 但如果你不奋斗,也许就会有一种 截然不同的生活方式了。
46:44 Q: Let it happen. 46:44 提问者:顺其自然就好了。
46:47 K: No, not let it happen, sir, look at it. You meet a very intelligent man, erudite, scholarly, you know, well educated, good brain and all the rest of it, and you say, ‘By Jove, I wish I were like him.’ All our education is based on that: you must be as good as your brother, if not better. Right? Examinations are based on that, and so on, so on. So, can you, having been through all that process where you have compared, struggled, violent, all the rest of it, can you say, ‘I see the absurdity of living that way, I won’t compare’? 47:57 I won’t measure my own dullness, my own state with somebody else. By comparing myself with somebody who is very clever, I say, ‘How terribly dull I am. ’ Right? You understand? But if I don’t compare with the man who is extraordinarily bright and intelligent, am I dull? Answer. Am I dull? On the contrary. 46:47 克:不,这不是“顺其自然”的事儿,先生, 让我们来看看它。 你遇到了一个非常聪明的人, 他博学广识、很有学问, 你懂的,受过良好的教育, 才思敏捷,等等, 于是你说,“天哪,我真希望我能像他一样。 ” 我们所有的教育都是建立在这之上的: 你必须要像你的兄弟一样优秀 ——如果你不能比他更好的话。 是吧? 考试的机制就是基于此的, 等等 等等。 所以,在经历了所有这些过程以后 ——比较、奋斗、暴力等等—— 你是否能够说,“我已经看到了 这种生活方式的荒谬, 所以我不会再去比较了”? 47:57 我不再会拿别人来衡量我自己的愚钝…… ——等一下,应该是我自己的状态。 通过拿我自己和某个非常聪明的人比较, 我才会说,“我是多么的愚笨”。 对吧? 你们听懂了吗? 但如果我不拿自己 和那个无比聪明与智慧的人相比, 那么我会是愚笨的吗? 请你回答它。那时我是愚笨的吗? 恰恰相反。
48:38 So, can you live without comparison, without the example? So, you find out that where there is control there must be the controller, who says, ‘I must control this reaction,’ or ‘I mustn’t do that,’ but that has become a habit doing that, so I must control. Which means I have set a standard – right? – the standard is the measurement according to which I have measured and say, ‘This is right,’ and I must live according to that. So, measurement implies control. And if you don’t measure yourself and call yourself dull compared to somebody else who is bright, you are dull when you compare, but when there is no comparison, whatsoever, you’re something else. Right. So, let’s move from that. 48:38 所以,你能否没有「比较」、 没有榜样地去生活呢? 因此,你会发现当有了「控制」, 就必然会有「控制者」, 这个控制者说,“我必须要控制这种反应”, 或者“我绝不能那样做”, 但这种做法已经变成了一个习惯, 所以我必须去控制。 这意味着我已经设定了一个标准 ——对吧? —— 而这个「标准」就是「量度」 ——而我会根据这个「标准」进行度量, 然后说,“这是对的”, 我必须要依照它来生活。 所以,量度就暗示了「控制」。 而如果你不度量你自己, 不把自己和某个聪明伶俐的人相比较 然后说自己很愚笨 如果你去比较,那你就是愚笨的了, 然而当没有了「比较」——没有任何比较—— 那你就是某种其他东西了。 好了。所以,让我们从这里继续探讨下去。
50:59 Q: I think or I feel that the momentum of the thinking process is so strong that I cannot just set myself aside to it and say, ‘I won’t think anymore.’ 50:59 提问者:我认为——或者说我感觉—— 那种思考过程的动力 是如此的强劲,以至于我很难只是 让自己和它撇清关系, 然后说,“我不会再去思考了。”
51:17 K: I haven’t... I can’t hear, sir. 51:17 克:我还没有……我听不到你的声音,先生。
51:36 Q: The momentum of thinking is so strong that I cannot just set myself aside to it and say, ‘I won’t think anymore.’ 51:36 提问者:思考的动力是如此强大, 以至于我很难只是让自己与它撇清关系, 然后说,“我不会再去思考了。”
51:48 K: I didn’t say that. Forgive me. 51:48 克:我并没有说过这样的话。请原谅我。
51:55 Q: I am saying this. Implied in your teaching there is this idea of total transformation, a mutation of the mind. Now, this is supposed to be a radical change of consciousness, itself. Now, I imagine this to take place as a sudden insight, a flash of understanding, a conscious experience of consciousness itself. 51:55 提问者:这话是我说的。 你的教导中暗示了那种「彻底转变」的概念, 头脑的突变。 你瞧,它应该是一种意识本身的 根本性的改变。 而在我的想象中,它应该是作为一种 “突然的顿悟”而发生的, 一种“恍然大悟”,「意识」体验到了意识本身。
52:42 K: Sir, may I ask something? What are you trying to tell me? 52:42 克:先生,我可以问一句吗? 你想告诉我什么呢?
52:47 Q: Well, I’m trying to tell you that I’m actually getting very bored by this constant repetition of these ideas about, ‘Look at this beautiful sunset’ and… 52:47 提问者:好吧,我想告诉你的是: 你不断地重复着这些观点: “去看那美丽的日落” 而我实际上已经对此感到非常厌烦了。
53:03 K: Sir, wait a minute, sir. If you’re getting bored, just walk out. 53:03 克:先生,请等一下,先生。 如果你感到厌烦,那就走出去好了。
53:08 Q: Well, I’m not really that bored, yet! I still have the hope that you might convey something. Did you hear what I said? I still hope you have something to say. 53:08 提问者:哦,那我其实还没有 厌烦到这种程度! 我仍旧希望你也许能传达出一些东西。 你能听到我说的话吗? 我仍然希望你还能说出一些东西。
53:56 K: If you are mildly bored – I don’t know what you’re talking about. 53:56 克:如果你有点厌烦了 ——我真不知道你在说些什么。
54:07 Q: You don’t want to listen? 54:07 提问者:你不想听我讲了吗?
54:11 K: Could you kindly tell me what you want to say, in a few words, sir? 54:11 克:先生,你能否只用几句话来告诉我 你想要说的是什么?
54:19 Q: Well, I’m in a way waiting for you to explain the transformation, the insight, the awareness of consciousness. 54:19 提问者:好吧,我在某种程度上 在等待着你来解释一下「转变」、 那种洞察、那种意识的觉察。
54:34 K: Yes, you’re waiting for me to explain how transformation takes place. It’s very simple. Transformation takes place when there is no control, when there is no measurement, when there is no sense of ‘me’ operating on things, psychologically. That’s all! And if that is not clear, we’ll go into it. And if you say, ‘I’m bored by the repetition of this, what you say, over and over,’ I’m sorry. If you’re bored then walk out. If you are mildly bored, tolerate it, and if you really want to understand it, give your attention to it. That’s all. If you don’t, it’s all right. 54:34 克:好,你在等着我来解释一下 「转变」是如何发生的。 这很简单。 当没有了「控制」、 当没有了「量度」、 当心理上没有了那种是“我”在操控事物的感觉, 那么「转变」就会发生了。 仅此而已! 而如果你们仍不清楚这一点, 我们将会来探讨它。 而如果你说,“我厌烦了这些重复的话, 厌烦了你一遍又一遍地说那些东西”, 那么我很抱歉。 如果你感到厌烦,那就离开好了。 如果你只是稍微有点厌烦, 那就忍受一下它, 而如果你真的想要了解它, 那就集中注意力听它。 就是这样。 如果你不想要了解它,这也没有关系。
56:06 Q: Is perchance permissiveness the outcome of control? 56:06 提问者:也许「放纵」是「控制」造成的结果?
56:20 K: Yes, sir, permissiveness is the reaction to control, obviously. We have been trained from childhood, through certain period in history, ‘Victorian,’ it’s called, that control, don’t show your feelings, obey, follow, all that. Now, in reaction to all that we say, ‘Out with all that nonsense, I’m going to do what I like.’ And the parents also feel they shouldn’t control, or some psychologists say it’s terrible to control your children, they must do what they like. We’ve been through all that. 56:20 克:没错,先生,放纵就是 针对于「控制」而产生的反应,这是很显然的。 我们从小开始一直被培养训练, 从某个被称为“维多利亚时代” 的历史时期就开始了, 那就是要控制,不要表现出你的感受、 要服从,要听话,所有这些东西。 而现在,对于上述这一切, 我们的反应就是说“让这些荒谬愚蠢的东西滚蛋, 我要去做我喜欢的事情”。 而父母同样也觉得他们不应该去控制, 或者某些心理学家会说: 去控制你的孩子是很糟糕的事, 他们必须去做他们所喜欢的事。 这些我们都经历尝试过了。
57:09 So, we are saying, control is totally unnecessary, without having the other reaction, which is permissiveness, totally unnecessary when you understand the whole business of control. That’s all. 57:09 所以我们在说:控制是完全没必要的, 但也不要有其他的反应 ——也就是「放纵」, 它也是完全不需要的, 当你了解了「控制」的全部内容意义。 那这事儿就完了。
58:02 Q: Is that right thinking? 58:02 提问者:这就是正确的思考吗?
58:06 K: She wants to know, to live without control, is that right thinking? You follow? This becomes so… Look, sir, please, listen to something. I may be wrong. Let’s find out. Thought is measurement. Right? Thought is moving in a certain direction. No? So, any movement involves time. Right? From here to there and so on, both psychologically and physically. Time is measurement – right? Which is, the whole momentum of thought is measurement. 58:06 克:她想要知道,没有控制的生活 ——这是正确的思考吗? 你们能理解吗? 这件事已经变得如此 你瞧,先生,请你们听好了。 我也许是错的。 但让我们来搞清楚它。 思想就是「量度」。 对吧? 思想就是沿着特定的方向运动。 不是吗? 所以,任何运动都包含了「时间」。 对吧? 从这里到那里,等等 ——无论是心理上还是物理上。 时间就是「量度」——对吧? 也就是说,思想的整个动力就是「量度」。
59:30 Q: Can’t it also be only factual? 59:30 提问者:它难道不能只是基于事实的量度吗?
59:34 K: No, please, just a minute. Now, I have to begin, again. So, do we understand each other when we say thought in its momentum, in its moving, in its drive, is time – the past, the past going through the present modifying itself and the future, that is the momentum of time. That’s the momentum of thought. And that is, also, the momentum of measurement, psychologically, as well as physically. This is simple enough. Right, sir? Now, I’m asking, one lives that way, one is constantly caught in the past, one is the past, and that past modifies itself all the time, and moves forward. 1:01:09 The past, modifying itself, going to the future. This whole momentum is time, measurement. Right? That’s all. So, why is it that we live in the past all the time? Why is it that we are not leaving the past, which doesn’t mean you forget the past, you understand the whole nature of the past, and find out what it means – I’m not saying, try, experiment with it, test it – what it means to live completely, now. Which means the momentum of the past is no longer operating. 59:34 克:不,请别急,稍等一下。 好吧,我不得不再讲一遍了。 所以,我们是否彼此理解了对方 ——我们说:思想的动力、思想的运动、 思想的驱动力就是「时间」, 那个「过去」, 「过去」经由「当下」而修改了它自己和未来 ——这就是时间的动力。 这就是思想的动力。 这同样也是「量度」的动力 ——既包括心理上的量度、 也包括物理上的量度。 这已经说得足够简单了。 对吧,先生? 而现在,我正在问:我们以这种方式生活, 我们持续不断地陷入于「过去」之中, 我们就是「过去」, 而这个「过去」一直在修改着它自己, 然后继续向前行进。 1:01:09 「过去」修改了它自己,然后进入到「未来」。 而这整个「动力」就是时间、 就是量度。 对吧? 事情就是如此。 所以,为什么我们要一直 活在「过去」之中呢? 为什么我们不抛开「过去」呢 ——这并不意味着你忘掉了「过去」, 而是你理解了「过去」的全部本质, 并发现了它意味着什么 ——我并没有妄下定论,请你去尝试一下它、 试验一下它、测试一下它—— 去发现「全然地活在当下」意味着什么。 它意味着「过去」的动力 不再运转了。
1:02:31 That is, put it differently, if you want to go into it more. Which is, people have asked throughout the centuries whether time has a stop. Right? Not chronological time, not whether the sun can remain, perpetually, in one place but, psychologically, can time end? Don’t you ask this question? Or you don’t even observe this momentum. Which is, put it differently, knowledge has become tremendously important. Right? Not only technologically, where you must have knowledge, but also, knowledge as experience, – more and more and more understanding. Right? So, we worship knowledge. I’ve said this a hundred times, if you’re bored by it, please tolerate it, have patience, if you can’t tolerate it, just walk out. 1:04:31 The speaker is interested in telling you this. He wants you to find out something different than constant repetition. Unless you do it, what is said becomes repetitive. It is not repetitive to the speaker. I would get bored much more than that gentleman if I repeated this to myself at every talk, I would walk out. I wouldn’t be sitting here. But as you enquire into it you see much more, deeper and deeper, wider. ‘Depth’ is not measurement. I must be careful, there! 1:02:31 也就是……换句话说, 如果你想要更深入一下它的话。 也就是说,世世代代以来, 人类在询问: 「时间」是否能够停止。 对吧? 不是钟表日历上的时间, 不是太阳是否能够 永远地停留在一个地方, 而是从心理层面来说,「时间」是否能够停止? 你们难道没有问过这个问题吗? 还是说,你们甚至都没有 观察过这种动力。 也就是……换个说法就是: 「知识」已经变得无比重要了。 对吧? 不只是在科学技术领域 ——在这个领域中,你们必须要有知识, 同样也包括那种作为「经验」的知识 ——越来越多、越来越多的经验 ……和了解。 对吧? 所以,我们会崇拜知识。 这些东西我已经说过有上百遍了, 如果你们对此感到厌烦了, 请容忍一下它,保持耐心, 如果你无法容忍它,那就离开这里吧。 1:04:31 演讲者倒是很有兴趣 把这些东西告诉你们。 他想要你们去发现某种 有别于那些不断重复的东西。 而除非你自己去做一下它, 否则他所说的东西就是重复乏味的。 但对于演讲者来说,它并不是重复乏味的。 如果我在每一场演讲中都重复它, 那我远远会比那位先生 更加感到厌烦,我会走掉。 我不会再坐在这里了。 然而当你探询它的时候,你就会看到更多的东西, 越来越深入、越来越广阔的东西。 但“深度”并不是一种「量度」。 我在这里必须用词谨慎才行!
1:05:28 If one sees the truth of this, how we live, that we are always functioning from the past, that our life is a momentum of remembrances, a momentum of recording and acting. Like a tape which is recording, our brain records and, from that recording, act, which is all the momentum of time. 1:05:28 如果我们看到了这其中的真相, 看到我们是如何生活的, 看到我们总是经由「过去」而运作, 看到我们的生活就是一种记忆的动力、 一种记录然后行动的驱动力。 就像正在记录的磁带那样, 我们的大脑也会记录, 然后它会通过那种记录而采取行动, 而这一切全都是时间的动力。
1:06:14 So, one asks, if you’re interested, if I can put it in ten different ways, which I have done, for the last fifty years, is it possible for the brain to record what is absolutely necessary, which is technology, how to drive a car, this, that, the other thing, and psychologically, inwardly, not to record a thing? When you are hurt, not physically but psychologically, inwardly, why should it be recorded? 1:07:04 You understand my question? What’s the necessity of carrying on this hurt for years and years, what for, why should you record it? If you can answer that one question and find out whether it’s possible not to record the hurt, perhaps then the brain will only record that which is absolutely, physiologically necessary, nothing psychological, emotional, etc. Right? 1:06:14 所以,某人在问…… 如果你们也有兴趣的话, 如果我可以用十种不同方式来阐释它的话 ——这就是我在过去的五十年里 所做的事情—— 那就是:大脑是否可能只去记录那些 绝对必要的东西 ——也就是技术方面的事情,如何驾驶汽车, 等等此类事情, 但在心理上、在内心, 则不去记录哪怕一个东西? 当你受到了伤害,不是身体上的伤害, 而是心理上的伤害、内心的伤害, 为什么你要把它记录下来呢? 1:07:04 你们理解我的问题吗? 年复一年地携带着这种伤痛 这又有什么必要呢? 这是为了什么呢? 为什么你要去记录它? 如果你可以回答这一个问题, 然后去发现一下 是否可能不要去记录那种伤害, 那么大脑或许就可以只去记录 那些生理层面绝对必要的事物, 而不去记录任何心理上、 情感上的事物 等等这类东西。 好吧?
1:07:54 Q: Can this question be investigated without seeing if the total consciousness can be conscious of itself? 1:07:54 提问者:我们可以探究这个问题吗 ——因为我们还没有明白 那种整体意识是否能意识到它自己?
1:08:03 K: Sir, if you don’t mind, we will deal with this question of the whole consciousness, whether it can be aware of itself, when we understand this whole cycle of movement of repetition. I can use the word ‘repeat,’ but the word is not the feeling of repetition. 1:08:03 克:先生,如果你不介意的话, 我们将会来处理一下 这个关于「整体意识」的问题, 这种意识是否能够觉察它自己, 当我们了解了「重复」的整个循环运动。 我可以使用“重复”这个词, 然而这个词并不代表那种「重复」的感受。
1:08:50 Q: Can’t we record when we have been hurt to avoid the next time to be hurt, again? 1:08:50 提问者:我们难道就不能记录下 我们曾经的伤害, 以此来避免下一次再受伤害吗?
1:09:14 K: Don’t we protect ourselves from other hurts – right? I have been hurt once, and I don’t want to be hurt again so, psychologically, I build a wall round myself so as not to be hurt anymore – right, sir? Is that what you are saying? Which means what? I isolate myself in order not to be hurt. Right? It’s obvious. You have hurt me once, and you may hurt me again, therefore I withdraw, I build a wall of resistance, I isolate myself, so that I won’t be hurt. So, from that isolation there’s violence, obviously – fear. So, why should I carry the first hurt? 1:10:31 Is it possible not to be hurt, at all? The word ‘innocence’ means a mind that is not hurt, that has never been hurt. Not the symbol of a lamb and all that kind of stuff but actually a mind that has never been damaged. When it is damaged, it is hurt. Right? Now, is it possible to totally put it away, avoid being hurt? Which doesn’t mean you become brutal or resist. Do you want to find out whether it’s possible not to be hurt at all without becoming callous, indifferent, snooty and all the rest of it? 1:09:14 克:我们难道就不能保护自己 免受其他伤害吗?——是这个问题吧? 我曾经受过一次伤,我不想再受伤害了。 于是我在心理上建立起了一道围墙, 以此来防止自己再次受伤 ——对吧,先生? 这就是你在说的东西吧? 这意味着什么呢? 为了不被伤害,于是我孤立隔绝自己。 对吧? 这是显而易见的。 你曾经伤害过我一次, 而你也许会再次伤害我, 于是我退缩了, 我建立起了一道「抵抗」的围墙, 我孤立隔绝我自己, 这样我就不会再被伤害了。 而经由这种「孤立隔绝」,就会有暴力, 这是很显然的——还有「恐惧」。 所以,为什么我还要携带着最初的伤害呢? 1:10:31 我们是否可能完全不再受伤? 「纯真」这个词就意味着 一颗不会受伤、 也从未被伤害过的心灵。 不是那种羔羊的象征 和所有这类玩意儿, 而是一颗真正从未被损害过的心灵。 因为当心灵遭受了损害,那它就会受到伤害。 对吧? 那么,是否可能完全地抛弃掉伤害, 从而避免受伤呢? 这并不意味着你会变得残忍 或者坚不可摧。 你们是否想要去发现: 有没有可能完全不受伤害、 同时也不会变得冷漠、无情、 傲慢等等这些吗?
1:11:56 Q: Can I be free of a hurt that happened when I was a baby, when I was two or three years old, that I am unconscious of? 1:11:56 提问者:我能否摆脱掉我婴儿时期 所遭受的伤害? ——也就是我两三岁且尚无意识的时候。
1:12:21 K: Have we time to go into this, do you want to go into this, now? Will you give me two minutes so that I can finish this? If you don’t want to listen, don’t listen, you understand? You’re free to go. 1:12:21 克:我们还有时间来探讨这个吗? 你们现在想要来讨论下它吗? 你们可以再给我两分钟时间, 让我把它讲讲完吗? 如果你不想听,那就别听好了, 你们明白了吗? 你走掉也没事儿。
1:13:00 One has been hurt in childhood by the parents, by other boys and girls, one is hurt in school, college, university, one is hurt. Right? Right? Now, that is, now one is fifty, that’s past, the hurt is behind, and you’re asking, can that hurt, ancient, old, in the past, can that be totally wiped away? Right, that’s the question. Right, sir? Not through analysis. Right? Need I go into that? That is, if you’re here for the first time, let me briefly state it. 1:14:22 The analyser thinks he’s different from the analysed. The analyser is not hurt, but the analysed is hurt. So, the analyser who thinks he’s not hurt, who thinks he’s separate, is going to examine the hurt. Right? But the analyser is the hurt, too. Right? So, analysis has very little meaning in freeing the mind from hurt when one sees the analyser is the analysed. I must go into it. Please. 1:13:00 我们在小时候曾经受到过伤害 ——被父母伤害、被其他的男孩和女孩伤害, 我们曾在学校里、在学院里、 在大学里受到伤害,我们受过伤害。 对吧? 是吧? 而现在,换句话说,如今我已经五十岁了, 一切都过去了,那个伤害已经被留在了身后, 于是你问:那个伤害——那个久远的、 老旧的、过去的伤害—— 它可以被彻底地抹除吗? 对吧,这就是问题所在。 是吧,先生? 不是通过「分析」。 好吧? 需要我深入一下它吗? 那就是……如果你是第一次来这里听演讲, 那就让我简要地来阐释一下它吧。 1:14:22 那个“分析者”认为他自己 是不同于那个被分析物的。 那个“分析者”并没有受伤, 受伤的是那个被分析的实体。 所以,那个认为自己没有受伤、 认为自己是分离独立的“分析者”, 他将会去检视那个「伤害」。 对吧? 然而那个分析者同样也是「伤害」。 是吧? 所以,对于让心灵摆脱伤害这件事来说, 「分析」并没有什么意义 ——因为我们看到了 分析者就是被分析物。 我必须得深入一下它。请别(打断)。
1:15:14 So, there is no analysis. Why am I hurt, why am I keeping the hurts? Why do you keep your hurts? It is part of you. Right? Perhaps if you get rid of the hurt you might get rid of yourself. So, the question then is, how is that hurt to be totally dissolved, not leaving a single scratch? Then I have to go into the question what is hurt, who is hurt? Right? The image that I have about myself is hurt. Right? I think I’m a marvellous man, you come along, tell me, ‘Don’t be silly,’ that hurts me because I have an image about myself as being marvellous, clever, intelligent, bright and all the rest of that rubbish, and you come along and say, ‘Goodness sake, what an ass you are.’ 1:16:52 The image which I have created about myself, is hurt. Right? Whether that hurt is in the past or in the present. Obviously. 1:15:14 所以,并不存在什么「分析」。 为什么我会受伤? 为什么我要保留那些伤害? 为什么你要保留你的伤痛? 它其实就是你的一部分。 对吧? 或许,当你摆脱掉了那个伤害, 你也许就摆脱掉了你自己。 所以,那时的问题就是: 这种伤害要如何才能被彻底地消解, 而不留下一丝伤痕? 然后我就必须要来探究如下的问题: 什么是「伤害」? 是谁在受伤? 对吧? 是我所持有的、关于我自己的「意象」 受到了伤害。 是吧? 我觉得自己是一个了不起的人, 而你过来了,告诉我说,“别犯傻了”, 这句话伤害了我,因为我持有一个关于我自己的意象 ——即我是个了不起的人, 我很聪明、智慧、聪颖, 所有这类乱七八糟的玩意儿, 然而你过来了,对我说, “天哪,你真是个蠢货”。 1:16:52 于是那个我所创造出来的、 关于我自己的意象便受到了伤害。 对吧? 不管那个伤害是过去的还是当下的。 这是显而易见的。
1:17:07 Then the question arises, is it possible not to have an image about oneself, at all? Because as long as there is an image about myself somebody is going to tread on it. So, I have to find out why the brain, the mind, has created this image about itself. Has it created it because in that image there is security? In that image there is safety? If there is no image, what am I? Therefore, I’m frightened, I cling to my image. And you are going to tread on it, politely, kindly, tolerantly, you’re going to put your foot on it and I get hurt. 1:18:20 So, I have to find out whether there is a possibility of living without a single image – the image being my conclusions, my opinions, my aggressiveness, etc., etc., the ‘me,’ the image. If I have no image, you can’t tread on it. If I have no image at all, now, the past hurt is not. You understand, sir? Right? Now, may I go? 1:17:07 于是这个问题就出现了: 我们是否可能完全不要有 关于自己的意象? 因为只要还是存在关于自我的意象, 那么就会有人来践踏它。 所以,我必须要去搞清楚 为什么大脑、头脑 要创造出这种关于自己的意象。 它之所以创造出意象,是不是因为 在那个意象之中有着安全感? 在那种意象中就有着「安全」? 因为如果没有了意象,那我是什么东西呢? 所以,我会感到害怕, 于是我执著于我的意象。 然而你却会去践踏它——以礼貌的方式、 友善的方式、或者容忍的方式, 你将会用脚踩踏我的意象, 于是我感到受伤了。 1:18:20 所以,我必须要去发现: 是否可能不带任何意象地生活—— 「意象」就是我的各种结论、 我的观点、我的侵略性 等等 等等, 那个“我”,这就是意象。 而如果我没有了意象,那你就无法踩踏它了。 如果此刻的我完全没有任何意象, 那过去的伤害就不复存在了。 你理解了吗,先生? 好了吧? 我现在可以走了吗?
1:18:58 Q: In relation to that gentleman’s question, is a child of two or three years old, he can be hurt because he has an image of himself? 1:18:58 提问者:那位先生的问题,它说的是 那个两三岁大的孩子,他之所以会受到伤害, 也是因为他拥有一个关于自己的意象?
1:19:07 K: No, we cannot… I don’t know the little children. 1:19:07 克:不是的,我们不能这样…… 我并不知道那个小孩的情况。
1:19:16 Q: Can you repeat the question? 1:19:16 提问者:你能重复一下那个问题吗?
1:19:21 K: The question was as a child, one is hurt. Right? Why? Your baby, your son, your girl, when she’s about four or five, why is she hurt? All right. She loves that teddy bear, must take it to bed with her, loves it, kisses it, hugs it, holds it all day long. You come along and pull it away, some other child pulls it away, she begins to cry. Right? Taken away something which was mine – begins the whole cycle. Is that enough for this morning? Right. 1:19:21 克:那个问题就是:一个小孩子,他也会受伤。 对吧? 这是为什么呢? 你的孩子、你的儿子、你的女儿, 当她还只有四五岁的时候, 为什么她也会受到伤害? 好吧。 因为她很喜爱那只泰迪熊, 她上床睡觉一定要带着它, 她爱泰迪熊,她亲吻它、拥抱它, 整天都拿着它。 然而你过来了,把那个泰迪熊拿走了, 或者某个别的孩子把它抢走了, 然后她就会大哭起来。 对吧? 因为你拿走了某个属于我的东西 ——于是这整个循环便开始了。 今天早上讲到这里就够了吧? 很好。
