STEP 34 I AM A BEGINNING STUDENT OF KNOWLEDGE.

YOU ARE A BEGINNING STUDENT OF KNOWLEDGE. Regardless of how intuitive you may consider yourself, regardless of how mentally capable you may consider yourself, regardless of how emotionally honest you may consider yourself, no matter what your recognized advancement, you are a beginning student of Knowledge. Be happy that this is so, for beginning students are in a position to learn all things and need not defend their accomplishments. We do not belittle your accomplishments but instead wish to shine the light of truth upon the greatness that waits to be discovered within you, a greatness that will give you true equality in life and in time will reveal what you have come here specifically to do.

你是一名内识的初学者。无论你认为自己的直觉如何，无论你认为自己的心理能力如何，无论你认为自己在情感上如何诚实，无论你认识的进步程度如何，你都是内识的初级学生。要为这一点感到高兴，因为初学的学生有能力学习所有的课程，不需要为他们的成就辩护。我们不是在贬低你的成就，而是希望在你内在的伟大上照亮真理的光芒，这种伟大将给你真实的平等，并将随着时间的推移揭示你特别来这里要做的事情。

IN YOUR TWO PRACTICE PERIODS, begin by acknowledging to yourself that you are a beginning student of Knowledge and by reminding yourself to make no premature conclusions either about this curriculum or about your abilities as a student. Such judgments are premature and rarely reflect the truth in any way. They are usually a form of self-discouragement and thus serve no worthy purpose at all.

在你的两个练习时段中，首先承认你是内识的初学者，并提醒自己不要对这个课程或你作为学生的能力做出过早的结论。这样的判断是不成熟的，很少以任何方式反映真理。它们通常是一种自我打击的形式，因此根本没有任何值得的目的。

AFTER DECLARING TODAY’S IDEA TO YOURSELF and reminding yourself not to judge, practice 15 minutes of inner stillness in your two practice periods. Attempt to feel the truth within you. Focus your mind on one point, either a physical point or an imaginary point if necessary. Let everything settle down inside. Let yourself become as quiet as possible, and do not be discouraged if there is difficulty. You are a beginning student of Knowledge and thus can learn all things.

在向自己宣告今天的想法并提醒自己不要评判之后，在你的两个练习时段中练习15分钟的内心静止。尝试感受你内在的真理。将你的注意力集中在一个点上，无论是物理点还是必要时的想象点。让内心的一切都平静下来。尽可能让自己变得安静，如果有困难，不要气馁。你是内识的初学者，因此可以学习所有事物。
