第一百五十二阶:我不会在世界上追随恐惧
Step 152 I will not follow fear within the world.
Humanity is governed by waves of fear that draw people here and there, waves of fear that dominate their actions, their thinking, their conclusions, their beliefs and their assumptions. Do not follow the waves of fear that move across the world. Instead, remain steadfast and still in Knowledge. Allow yourself to observe the world from this point of stillness and certainty. Do not be swayed by the waves of fear. In this way, you will be able to contribute to the world and not be its victim only. You are here to give, not to judge, and in stillness you are without judgment upon the world. Recognize, then, the waves of fear, but do not let them touch you, for in Knowledge they cannot touch you because Knowledge is beyond all fear.
人类被恐惧的浪潮所支配,恐惧的浪潮把人们引向这里又引向那里,恐惧的浪潮支配着人们的行动、思维、结论、信念和假设。不要跟随在世界各地蔓延的恐惧浪潮。相反,要在内识中保持坚定和静止。让自己从这种静止和确定的角度来观察世界。不要被恐惧的浪潮所左右。这样,你就能为世界做出贡献,而不仅仅是世界的牺牲品。你是来给予的,而不是来评判的,在静止的状态下,你对世界没有评判。认识到恐惧的浪潮,但不要让它们触及你,因为在内识中,它们无法触及你,因为内识超越了一切恐惧。
Repeat your idea for the day upon the hour, and consider it in light of all that you experience today. In your two longer practice periods, apply your mind actively in attempting to understand today’s lesson. Again, this is a form of mental application. We shall not practice stillness and mental silence today but mental application so that you may learn to think constructively. For when your mind is not still, it should be thinking constructively. It should be investigating. Do not rely upon early conclusions. Do not rely upon self-comforting ideas. Allow yourself to be vulnerable today, for you are only vulnerable to Knowledge. Yet Knowledge will shield you from all things of harm within this world and will provide a comfort and a stability that the world can never change. Learn of this today so that you may be a source of Knowledge within the world so that your Source may express itself through you.
每隔一小时重复一次你今天的想法,并结合你今天所经历的一切进行思考。在两次较长时间的练习中,积极运用你的心灵,尝试理解今天的课程。同样,这也是心灵运用的一种形式。我们今天要练习的不是静止和心静,而是心灵的运用,这样你才能学会建设性地思考。因为当你的心灵不保持静心时,它应该是在进行建设性的思考。它应该进行研究。不要依赖过早的结论。不要依赖自我安慰的想法。今天,请允许自己变得脆弱,因为你只对内识脆弱。然而,内识会保护你免受世间万物的伤害,并为你提供世界永远无法改变的安慰和稳定。今天就学习这些,让你成为世界上的内识源泉,让你的源泉通过你来表达它自己。
