觉醒 之五




【原文】
You do not become good by trying to be good, but by finding the goodness that is already within you, and allowing that goodness to emerge. But it can only emerge if something fundamental changes in your state of consciousness.

In Zen they say: "Don't seek the truth. Just cease to cherish opinions." What does that mean? Let go of identification with your mind. Who you are beyond the mind then emerges by itself.

【译文】
努力变好不是你成为优秀的原因,你要做的就是发现已经存在于自身的好,并且让这好的种子发芽开花。但是,发芽开花并不容易,你的意识状态要有根本的变化才行。
禅语有云:“不用求真,唯须息见”。这是什么意思呢?就是说要放弃你思维中的自我认同,超越思维的真我才会显现。

【心得】
用力过度的想在这个世界上得到确认,这是人们都在做的事情。人们靠着各种外界的认同来确认自认的存在。但是真我的存在其实是与外界事物无关的,与认同无关的。抛弃需要获得认同的想法,才是认识自己的重要的一步。
