STEP 224 REVIEW

Today practice objectivity by reviewing the last two weeks of practice. Once again, read each lesson for the day and recall your practice for that day. Begin with the first practice of the two-week period, and then follow each day step by step. Strengthen your ability to observe your progress objectively. See what happens on days when you are strong with practice and on days when you are weak. Imagine for a moment as you do this that you are looking through the eyes of your Teachers who are watching your life from far above. They are without condemnation. They are merely taking note of your strengths and weaknesses, strengthening the former and minimizing the effects of the latter. As you learn to view your life objectively, you will learn to see your life through the eyes of your Teachers. This is looking with Knowledge. This is looking without judgment. Given this, the mind becomes a vehicle for Knowledge, and Knowledge will bestow upon you all the ideas and the activities that are truly beneficial for you.

今天,通过回顾过去两周的练习来练习客观性。再次阅读每一天的课程,回忆那一天的练习。从两周期间的第一次练习开始,然后逐步跟随每一天。加强你客观观察自己进步的能力。看看在你练习强度较大的日子里和练习强度较小的日子里发生的事情。想象一下,当你这样做的时候,你正透过你老师的眼睛,他们正从遥远的上空注视着你的生命。他们没有谴责。他们只是注意到你的长处和短处,加强前者,尽量减少后者的影响。当你学会客观地看待你的生命时,你就会学会用老师的眼睛看待你的生命。这就是用内识看问题。这就是不带评判的观察。有了这些,心灵就会成为内识的载体,内识就会赋予你所有真正有益的想法和活动。

Allow your Review practice period today to be engaged on your own behalf. Utilize your mind purposefully and do not allow it to wander. Break the habit of thinking mindlessly. Break the habit of preoccupying yourself with foolish and meaningless things. Allow your Review today to demonstrate to you that you are a true student of Knowledge.

让今天的回顾练习为你自己服务。有目的地善用你的心灵,不要让它游离。改掉漫不经心思考的习惯。改掉一心扑在愚蠢无意义的事情上的习惯。让你今天的回顾向你证明,你是一名真实的内识学生。
