STEP 63 REVIEW

AS BEFORE, IN YOUR REVIEW review the past week of practice and learn the extent of your involvement and how it can be increased and enhanced.This week your practice has been expanded. It has been taken into the world with you to be applied in all manner of situations, regardless of your emotional states, regardless of the emotional states of those who influence you and regardless of where you are and what you are doing. In this way, everything becomes part of your practice.The world, then, instead of being a fearful place that oppresses you, becomes a useful place to cultivate Knowledge. REALIZE THE STRENGTH THAT YOU ARE GIVEN when you are able to practice regardless of your emotional states, for you are greater than your emotions, and you need not repress them to realize this.To become objective with your own internal states, you must operate from a position where you can observe them and where you are not dominated by them.This will allow you to become present to yourself and will give you true compassion and understanding.Then you will not be a tyrant with yourself, and tyranny in your life will come to an end.

像以前一样,在回顾过去一周的练习时,了解你的参与程度,以及如何提高和加强它。本周,你的练习得到了扩展,它被带入了你的世界,应用于各种情况,不管你的情绪状态如何,不管影响你的人的情绪状态如何,也不管你在哪里,在做什么。这样,一切都会成为你练习的一部分。这样,世界就不再是压迫你的恐惧之地,而是成为你开垦内识的有益场所。要想客观地对待自己的内心状态,你必须站在一个能观察到它们、不被它们支配的位置上进行练习,这将让你与自己成为一体,并给予你真实的同情和理解。

IN YOUR ONE LONG PRACTICE PERIOD, evaluate this prior week as carefully as possible without condemnation. Remember that you are learning how to practice. Remember that you are learning to develop your skills. Remember that you are a student. Be a beginning student, for a beginning student makes few assumptions and wishes to learn everything.

在你的一次长期练习中,尽可能仔细地评估前一周的情况,不要谴责自己。记住,你正在学习如何练习。记住,你正在学习发展自己的技能。记住你是一名学生。要做一个初学者,因为初学者很少做假设,并想要学习一切。
