Step 150 Today I will learn to learn.

Today you learn to learn. You learn to learn because you need to learn. You need to learn how to learn so that your learning may be effective and expedient, have depth and consistency and produce a sound advancement that you can rely upon in all circumstances in the future. Do not think that you already understand the process of learning, for you are learning about this now as you understand the meaning of advancement, the meaning of failure, the meaning of encouragement, the meaning of discouragement, the meaning of enthusiasm and the meaning of a lack of enthusiasm. That is why at the end of each week you review your practices so that you may understand your progress and understand the mechanism of learning. This is essential for you to realize, for until you do, you will misinterpret your steps, you will misconstrue your actions, you will not understand how to follow a curriculum and you will never learn how to teach a curriculum yourself.

今天,你要学会学习。你要学会学习,因为你需要学习。你需要学会如何学习,这样你的学习才会有效而便捷,才会有深度和连贯性,才会产生稳健的进步,让你在未来的任何情况下都可以信赖。不要认为你已经理解了学习的过程,因为你现在正在学习理解进步的意义,失败的意义,鼓励的意义,沮丧的意义,热情的意义,以及缺乏热情的意义。这就是为什么在每周结束时,你需要回顾你的练习,以便理解你的进步,并理解学习的机制。这对你来说至关重要,因为直到你做到这一点,你才不会误解自己的步骤,不会误解自己的行动,才能理解如何遵循课程,并最终学会如何自己教授课程。

Therefore, today you learn to learn. This places you as a beginning student of Knowledge, which gives you all rights and all encouragement to learn everything that is necessary, without presumption, without conceit, without denial and without falsity of any kind. As you learn to learn, you will realize the mechanism of learning. This will give you wisdom and compassion in your dealings with people. You cannot teach people from idealism, for then you place upon them the burden of your own expectations. You require of them what even life cannot provide. But the certainty of your experience and your Knowledge, which you will give to others, will be sound, and they will be able to receive it and utilize it in their own way. Then you will not place any personal demands upon them in their learning, but will allow Knowledge within you to give to Knowledge in them. You will then be a witness to the instruction and to the learning as well.

因此,今天你要学会学习。这使你成为内识的初学者,并赋予你一切权利和鼓励,让你学习一切必要的知识,不妄自菲薄,不自负,不否认,不虚假。当你学会学习时,你就会认识到学习的机制。这将赋予你待人接物的智慧和同情。你不能从理想主义出发去教导别人,因为这样你就把自己的期望强加给了他们。你对他们的要求是生命所不能提供的。但是,你所传授给他人的经验和内识是可靠的,他们能够接受并以自己的方式加以使用。这样,你就不会对他们的学习提出任何个人要求,而是让你内在的内识给予他们内在的内识。这样,你也就成为了教学和学习的见证人。

Therefore, today bear witness to your own learning and learn to learn. Upon the hour, remind yourself that you are learning to learn. In your two meditation practices, allow yourself to enter stillness and peace. Observe yourself as you move forward and as you hold yourself back. Exert your will on your own behalf compassionately and firmly, and judge not your advancement because you are not in a position to judge, because you are learning to learn.

因此,今天要见证自己的学习,学会学习。每时每刻,都要提醒自己,你正在学会学习。在两次冥想练习中,让自己进入静止与平和。观察自己的前进和退缩。同情而坚定地代表自己行使意志,不要评判自己的进步,因为你没有资格评判,因为你正在学习。
