STEP 187 I AM A CITIZEN OF THE GREATER COMMUNITY OF WORLDS.

You are not merely a human being in this one world. You are a citizen of the Greater Community of worlds. This is the physical universe that you recognize through your senses. It is far greater than you can now comprehend. The extent of its relationships are far greater than you can even imagine, for reality is always greater than imagination.

你不仅仅是这个世界上的一个人类。你是世界大社区的公民。这是你通过感官所识别的物质宇宙。它远比你现在所能理解的要广阔得多。它关系的深度超出了你所能想象的范围，因为现实总是超越想象。

You are a citizen of a greater physical universe. This acknowledges not only your Lineage and your Heritage but also your purpose in life at this time, for the world of humanity is growing into the life of the Greater Community of worlds. This is known to you, though your beliefs may not yet account for it.

你是一个更大物质宇宙的公民。这不仅承认了你的世系和传承，也承认了你此时在生命中的目的，因为人类世界正在融入世界大社区的生命之中。虽然你们的信仰可能还无法解释这一点，但你是知道的。

Today, upon the hour, affirm your citizenship in the Greater Community of worlds, for this affirms a greater life that you are now beginning to discover. In your two meditation practices, once again enter stillness and quietude. This growing experience of stillness will enable you to understand all things, for your mind was created to assimilate Knowledge, and this is how understanding comes about. The accumulation of ideas and the accumulation of theories do not constitute either Knowledge or understanding, for understanding is born of true affinity and experience. In this, it has no parallel in the world and can thus serve the world that you perceive.

今天，在每个小时，确认你是世界大社区的公民，因为这肯定了你现在开始发现的更大生命。在你的两次冥想练习中，再次进入静止与安静。这种日益增长的静心体验将使你能够理解一切，因为你的心灵是为了吸收内识而创造的，而理解就是通过这种方式产生的。想法的积累和理论的积累并不构成内识或理解，因为理解源于真实的亲和力和体验。在这一点上，它在世界上没有任何平行之物，因此能够服务于你所感知的世界。
