STEP 19 TODAY I WISH TO SEE.

THE DESIRE TO SEE IS LIKE THE DESIRE TO KNOW. It too requires a refinement of your mind’s faculties. To see with clear vision means you are not seeing with preference. It means that you are able to perceive that which is actually occurring rather than that which you wish to see. There is something actually occurring beyond your wishes. This is very true. The desire to see, then, is the desire to see a greater truth. This requires a greater honesty and a greater openness of mind.

看见的渴望就像知道的渴望一样。它也需要对你心灵自然能力的提升。清晰地看见意味着你不是用偏见去看，而是能够感知到实际发生的现实，而不是你希望看到的现实。实际上，除了你的愿望之外，确实有某些事情正在发生。这是非常真实的，因此，看见的渴望，实际上是渴望看见更伟大的真理。这需要更大的诚实和更开放的心灵。

TODAY IN YOUR TWO PRACTICE SESSIONS, practice looking upon one simple mundane object. Do not take your eyes off of that object, but look and practice looking very conscientiously. You are not trying to see anything. You are simply looking with an open mind. When the mind is open, it experiences its own depth, and it experiences the depth of what it is perceiving.

今天，在你的两个练习时段中，练习专注于一个简单的日常物体。不要把眼睛从那个物体上移开，而是仔细地看，练习非常专心地注视。你不是在试图看到什么特定的东西，而只是用开放的心灵去看。当心灵是开放时，它就能体验到它自己的深度，并体验到它所感知到的事物的深度。

CHOOSE ONE SIMPLE OBJECT THAT HAS VERY LITTLE MEANING for you and gaze upon it twice today for at least 15 minutes. Allow your mind to become very still. Breathe deeply and regularly as you gaze upon this object. Allow your mind to settle down into itself.

选择一个对你而言没有太大意义的简单物体，今天注视它两次，每次至少15分钟。让你的心灵变得非常静止。注视物体时深呼吸，保持规律的呼吸。让你的心灵逐渐平静下来。
