STEP 38 GOD KNOWS THE WAY TO KNOWLEDGE.

HOW CAN YOU FIND YOUR WAY WHEN YOU ARE LOST? How can you know certainty when you value the temporary so greatly? How can you know the power of your own life when you are so intimidated by threats of loss and destruction? Life is kind to you, for it offers not only the reward but the way to the reward. If it were left up to you, it would be cruel indeed, for you would have to attempt every single possibility that you could conceive of, and then you would have the possibilities that others have conceived of and even the opportunities to reach Knowledge that others have used successfully but which may not in fact work well for you. In your brief span of time in the world, how can you accomplish all of these and still maintain your vitality? How can you maintain your encouragement for Knowledge when so many ways will disappoint you?

当你迷失时,你如何找到自己的路?当你如此看重暂时的事物时,你如何确定?当你如此被损失和毁灭的威胁所吓倒时,你如何知道自己生命的力量?生命对你很仁慈,因为它不仅提供了奖励,还提供了通往奖励的途径。如果一切都交给你来决定,那将是残酷的,因为你将不得不尝试你能想象到的每一个可能性,然后你将有其他人构想的可能性,甚至有机会获得他人成功使用过但实际上对你来说可能不太适用的通往内识的途径。当你还在世界上的短暂时间里,你如何完成所有这些,并仍然保持你的活力?当有那么多的方式会让你失望时,你如何保持对内识的鼓励?

TAKE FAITH TODAY IN KNOWING THAT GOD knows the way to Knowledge, and you need only follow the way that is being given. In this way, Knowledge simply emerges in you because it is acknowledged, for only God knows Knowledge in you, and only Knowledge in you knows God. As the two resonate together, they both become more apparent. In this, you find peace.

今天相信内识,因为上帝知道通往内识的路径,你只需要跟随正在给予的路径。通过这种方式,内识在你内在简单地出现,因为它被承认了,因为只有上帝知道你内在的内识,只有你内在的内识知道上帝。当两者共鸣时,它们都变得更加显现。在这种情况下,你会找到平静。

IN YOUR TWO PRACTICE PERIODS TODAY, each of a 30-minute duration, practice feeling the presence of God, silently, in stillness. Not thinking about God, not speculating, not wondering, not doubting, but simply feeling. It is no fantasy that you are concentrating upon now, though you are used to concentrating upon fantasy. In stillness and quiet, everything becomes apparent. God is very still, for God is not going anywhere. As you become still, you will feel the power of God.

在今天的两个练习时段中,每个时段持续30分钟,练习在寂静中感受上帝的存在。不是思考上帝,不是推测,不是好奇,不是怀疑,而是简单地感受。你现在专注的不是幻想,尽管你习惯于专注于幻想。在寂静和宁静中,一切都变得明显。上帝是非常静止的,因为上帝无处不在。当你变得静止时,你将感受到上帝的力量。
