Step 131 Today I will seek the experience of true purpose in life.

Seek the experience of true purpose. This provides the foundation for all meaningful relationships. Do not seek relationships outside of this context, for they will lack foundation and, though perhaps very alluring, will prove to be very difficult for you. Whether you are seeking marriage, great friendship or someone to help you in your work, remember that Knowledge will draw to you all individuals as you truly need them.

寻求真实目的的经验。这为所有有意义的关系提供了基础。在这个背景之外不要寻找关系，因为它们将缺乏基础，尽管可能非常吸引人，但对你来说可能会非常困难。无论你是在寻找婚姻、伟大的友谊还是有人帮助你完成工作，请记住，内识会将你真正需要的人带到你身边。

Therefore, today concentrate on purpose and not on relationship. The greater your experience of purpose, the greater your comprehension of relationship. Though you will see that people come together for enjoyment and stimulation, there is a far greater component in their meeting. Few people recognize this, but it is given you to recognize this through practice and experience. You can be certain that if you are not trying to fit people into your own idea of purpose, you will be opening yourself to the genuine experience of purpose itself. As you begin to observe yourself objectively, you will begin to see the manifestations of your own will in contrast to Knowledge, and this will be very essential for your learning.

因此，今天集中精力于目的而非关系。你对目的的体验越深，你对关系的理解就越深。虽然你会看到人们为了享乐和刺激而聚在一起，但他们的相遇中有一个更大的组成部分。很少有人认识到这一点，但通过练习和体验，你会被赋予认识到这一点的机会。你可以确信，如果你不是试图将人们纳入你自己对目的的理解中，你就会开放自己去体验真正的目的。当你开始客观地观察自己时，你将开始看到自己的意志与内识之间的对比，这对于你的学习将非常重要。

Today remind yourself upon the hour of your intent to realize your purpose. Let today be a step in that direction—a step that will save you years and years of time, a step that will advance you forever towards your goal of Knowledge, for Knowledge is drawing you. In your two deeper practice periods, allow Knowledge to draw you. Feel the greater attraction within you, which you will naturally feel if you are not preoccupied with little things.

今天每小时提醒自己要认识到你的目的。让今天成为朝这个方向迈出的一步——这一步将为你节省多年时间，永远推动你走向内识的目标，因为内识在吸引你。在你的两个更深层面的练习时段中，允许内识吸引你。感受你内在更强大的吸引力，如果你不被小事所困扰，你自然会感受到这种吸引力。
