STEP 266 REVIEW

Today as before review the past two weeks of preparation. Take this opportunity in your long practice period today to review all that has transpired in these past two weeks concerning the directions given in this preparation, your experiences of the practices and the overall results in your life. Carry on this Review with as much objectivity as you can, especially regarding the results in your life, many of which you still cannot assess objectively.

今天和以前一样,回顾过去两周的准备工作。通过今天这个长时间练习的机会,回顾过去两周中发生的一切,包括准备过程中的指导、练习中的体验以及你生命中的整体结果。尽可能客观地进行这次回顾,特别是关于你生命中的结果,其中许多结果你目前可能还无法客观地评估。

Many things will change as you progress in your studies. Some things will fall away from you; other things will begin to build. Worldly problems will press upon you that require your engagement and application. Other things that you thought were problems will become increasingly remote and unnecessary for you to concern yourself with. Thus, your outer life adjusts itself so that you can recognize where you are to apply yourself now. Then your inner life and outer life can reflect one another. This is very important. You are beginning to learn how to learn, and you are seeing the world change as a result. The quality of your experience will be transformed in time so that all things, both common and extraordinary, will be viewed from a different viewpoint than before. You can then learn to take advantage of all opportunities and thus learn to appreciate life, even in its disappointments.

随着学习的深入,许多事情都会发生改变。有些事情会离你远去,有些事情则会开始建立。世俗的问题会压迫着你,需要你投入和应用。另一些你认为是问题的事情会变得越来越遥远,你也没有必要去关心。因此,你的外在生命会进行自我调整,以便你能认识到你自己现在应该在哪里运用你自己。这样,你的内在生命和外在生命就能相互反映。这一点非常重要。你开始学会如何学习,你也因此看到了世界的改变。随着时间的推移,你所经历的一切都会发生质的变化,从而以不同于以往的视角来看待一切事物,无论是普通的还是非凡的。这样,你就能学会善用一切机会,从而学会欣赏生命,即使是在失望中。

Practice this in the Review today. Be very thorough in your investigation. Begin with the first lesson in the two-week period and follow it day by day. Recognize what happened in your life each day. Try to remember. Try to concentrate here. In this way, you will feel the movement of your own life. It is in recognizing this movement over a period of time and seeing how the stages of your life progress that you will realize that you are firmly on the road to Knowledge. You will then see that there will be less and less behind you to hold you back and that the future will open itself to accommodate you increasingly. This is the beneficence of life bowing before you who are becoming a student of Knowledge.

今天在回顾中进行练习。调查要非常彻底。从两周的第一课开始,一天一天地进行。认识每天在你生命中发生的事情。尽量记住。试着集中注意力。这样,你就会感受到你自己生命的运动。正是在一段时间内认识到这种运动,并看到你生命的各个阶段是如何进展的,你才会意识到你正坚定地走在通往内识的道路上。这样,你就会看到,在你身后阻碍你前进的事物会越来越少,而未来也会越来越多地向你敞开大门。这就是生命的恩惠,它向正在成为内识学生的你鞠躬致敬。
