珊姐:
昨个元宵节,去了佛堂。珊姐,每每初一十五都会去佛堂帮忙,是真正的大厨。十几个人的饭菜,珊姐一个人搞定。利落的让你敬佩。
捡菜、洗漱、烹饪,有条不紊,利落的做出几道菜来。让你觉得这一定是从小就耳濡目染就会了的吧。不对。
珊姐,以前也算是家中大小姐,从不干活。结婚了,也是老公做饭的,自己手不碰锅的类型的。性格泼辣,直接。
直到家庭婚姻出现了问题,后来有缘碰触到了佛堂的一些讲师,很多脾气秉性便随之发生了变化,也跟着学习了很多种食物的做法。成了现在小佛堂不可或缺之人。每逢佳节、初一十五,都扛起责任来给大家做美食。你很难想象以前不食人间烟火的人是如何发生改变的。但这种改变确实真是的。不仅喜欢做,还喜欢展示给大家,喜欢大家品尝她做的饭。
所以你看,那些说着不会的人,何尝不是一种逃脱呢?不是不会,只是不想而已。没有什么应该与不应该的表现,人的变化就在于否定之否定。如果不能打破自己的原有模样,又怎会有本质的成长。
士别三日当刮目相待,有时候,我们遇到困难和痛苦,就是给我们成长的。如果能提早意识到这个问题,也大抵能避免很多的苦难和痛苦吧。

萨古鲁:时机是最重要的,为什么时机就是一切?
We all want our actions to yield favorable results. But this isn’t always the case, despite putting maximum effort into our ventures. So in addition to intention, involvement, and intensity in action, what determines the outcome of our endeavors? Sadhguru explains.
我们都希望付诸行动能得到想要的结果。但就算我们投入最大量的精力,也不是总会有好结果。除了意图、参与度以及行动的强度之外,是什么决定了我们努力的结果?萨古鲁在这篇文章中做了解释。
Questioner: Sadhguru, at times, I see myself relentlessly pursuing goals, with a kind of a go-getter’s attitude. At other times, I am deliberately very patient, and I wait for things to unfold in their own unique and beautiful way. According to you, what is the better approach?
提问者:萨古鲁,有时候,我发现自己不懈地追赶目标,带着一种不达目的决不罢休的态度。有时候,我又特意耐心等待,让事情以其独特而美好的方式自然发展。在您看来,哪一种方式更好?
Sadhguru: In terms of doing anything in the world, we should know what we are doing. Capability, intelligence, all these things are needed. But one important aspect that people tend to miss, especially when they are young, is timing. If you do not time your actions right, even the best actions will go waste. Those who do not know how to time their life, will look at the astrological chart and say, “This is a good time, bad time, auspicious time, or inauspicious time.” There is no standard chart for this.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):关于做事,我们应该知道我们在做什么。能力、智力,这些都是必要的。但是人们常常忽略的一个重要方面,尤其是在他们年轻时,就是时机。如果你没有为你的行动找准时机,最好的行动也会白费。那些不知道如何找对时机的人们会去看星盘,然后说,“这是好时机、坏时机、吉祥的时机或者不祥的时机。”选择时机并没有一个标准。
If you do not time your actions right, even the best actions will go waste.
如果你没有为你的行动找准时机,最好的行动也会白费。
Timing is most important. This is something I am constantly striving for people around me to understand – the significance of timing. They understand the significance of action. But most of the time, they do not understand the significance of timing. If the timing is right, even a small action will produce a huge impact. If the timing is wrong, even if you push hard, only little will happen. How do you arrive at the timing? This is a complex affair.
时机是最重要的。我一直努力想要我身边的人明白这一点——时机的重要性。他们明白行动的重要性。但大部分时间,他们不明白时机的重要性。如果时机正确,即使很小的行动也会产生巨大的影响。如果时机不对,即便你很努力地推动事情的发展,也不会发生什么。你如何去把握时机?这是个复杂的事情。
One aspect is, you as a human being are not in the same state of physical and mental competence 24 hours a day. It is fluctuating all the time. When you want to hit an important shot, you must be at your best. You have to take care of this timing. It takes a lot of experience and wisdom to get the timing with the world. But at least with you, you time it. When you are at your best, you do important things. When you are not so good, you do not do it.
一方面是,作为人类,你的身体和头脑不是一天24小时都能处在同样的水平,它一直在起伏变化。当你想做一件重要的事时,你必须处于最佳状态。你必须选好这个时机。需要很多经验和智慧去把握世间的时机。但至少在你身上,你要能选定时机。当你状态最好时做最重要的事。当你状态不那么好时,就先不做。
Being In the Zone
活在当下
Recently, someone told someone else about his experience of driving with me, many years ago. He still remembered it since it so terrified him, because my right leg is heavy. He said, “The way Sadhguru was driving that day, I said, ‘Sadhguru, don’t drive like this.’” On a particular day when I’m on, I know that day I can do anything, and I will do it right.
最近,某人告诉另一个人,许多年前和我一起开车是什么感觉。他依然记得,因为当时他真的吓坏了,因为我右脚踩油门踩得很重。他说:“萨古鲁那天那样开车,我说:‘萨古鲁,别这样开车。’” 在特定的某天,如果我状态好,我知道那一天我可以做任何事,并且我会把它做好。
On another day, when I’m a little not there, then I know on this day I should step back and go a little more cautiously, like everyone else. There is also timing with the rest of the world, with outside situations. To hit the right thing at the right time in outside situations takes much more experience and observation. But at least the timing with yourself must happen, that you are at your best when you want to do important things.
另一些时候,当我觉得我不是很在状态,那么我知道这一天我应该收敛一些,小心一点,像其他人一样。对于外在世界、外在情况,也有时机。在外在环境中把握正确的时机,正中要害,需要更多的经验和观察。但至少你必须找准你自己身上的时机,做重要的事情时你有最佳的状态。
Do not decide what is important, what is not important. Just pay the same attention to everything, and apply yourself with the same level of intensity.
不要判定什么重要,什么不重要。对于所有的事情都一视同仁,用同样的强度把自己投入进去。
Once you understand this, you will realize it is extremely important to keep yourself at your best, every moment of your life. Because every little thing that you do, if you learn to do it with as much attention as the so-called big things, then you will see the cumulative impact of those little things you do, over a period of time, will be so big. These little things add up to something phenomenal, simply because you took care to do them with absolute intention, attention, and intensity of expression.
一旦你明白了这一点,你会发现时刻保持最佳状态是多么重要。因为你做的每一件小事,如果你学着用做所谓大事的专注度去做,那么你就会发现你做的小事的累积效应,过一阵子,它们会很有影响力。这些小事会累积产生惊人的效应,仅仅是因为你全然用心、专注和强烈地投入。
Before you realize all these things properly within yourself and around yourself, one simple, fundamental thing you can do is this: Do not decide what is important, what is not important. Just pay the same attention to everything, and apply yourself with the same level of intensity. If God comes, same intensity; if an ant comes, same intensity of attention and involvement. If you just do this, everything will sort itself out.
在你真正认识到自己内在和周遭的这一切之前,你可以做一件简单的、基本的事情,那就是:不要判定什么重要,什么不重要。对于所有的事情都一视同仁,用同样的强度把自己投入进去。如果神来了,同样的强度;如果一只蚂蚁来了,同样的注意力和参与强度。如果你做到这点,每件事都会自行解决。
Right now, the biggest problem with human beings is they think, “This is important – that’s not important.” “This person is great – that person is no good.” “This is okay – that is not okay.” “This is God – that is the devil.” In this, they are becoming half alive. Because half the time, they are not there (with what they are doing), because they think it is not important. You are breathing right now. Is it not important? You must do it with total involvement and intensity. Then we will call you a yogi.
现在,人类面临最大的问题是他们认为,“这个重要——那个不重要。” “这个人很棒——那个人不好。” “这样好——那样不好。” “这是神——那是魔鬼。” 如此一来,他们变得只有半条命。因为有一半的时间里,他们对自己做的事情都心不在焉,因为他们认为那不重要。你正在呼吸。这不重要吗?你必须全情投入全力以赴地去做。这时,我们会称你为Yogi(瑜伽士)。
A Simple Method
一个简单的方法
Timing is the most important thing, because the time and the energy you have in your life are limited resources.
时机是最重要的事,因为你生命中拥有的时间和能量是有限的。
There is no such thing as important and not important. Whether you look at your friend or at someone you do not like, whether you are doing something that is socially important or not so important, as far as you are concerned as a life, every moment of your life is equally important. Everything that you do is important. What is not important, just do not do it.
事情不分重要或者不重要。不管是你的朋友还是你不喜欢的人,不管你在做的事情在社会上重要还是不重要,你作为一个生命,对于你来说,你生命中的每一个瞬间都是同等重要的。你做的每一件事都是重要的。如果不重要,干脆就不要去做。
Why are you investing your life in something that you think is not important? Let’s say you are doing something silly. It does not matter if I think it is not important. But you think it is important. Only if you think it is important, you must invest your life in it. Otherwise, why? If you do this, you will arrive at the timing. It will take a little time, but you will arrive at the timing, and that timing is extremely important.
为什么你要投入你的生命去做你认为不重要的事呢?如果说你正在做一件蠢事,我觉得这件事不重要,那没关系。但是你认为它重要。只有当你觉得它重要的时候,你一定要将生命投入其中。否则,何必呢?如果你这样做,你就会把握时机。这会花一点时间,但是你会把握到时机,而那个时机极为重要。
If you watch games like cricket or golf, you will see they always talk about the timing of hitting the ball. It is not about the strength. One person hits the ball wasting energy. Another person just flicks it, and it goes to the same place. This is timing! That is true in your life too.
如果你看板球或者高尔夫球赛,你会发现他们总是在谈论击球的时机。无关(击球的)力度。一个人费很大劲击球,而另一个人只轻轻打了一下,球也落到同样的地方。这就是时机!这在你的生命中也是如此。
Timing is the most important thing, because the time and the energy you have in your life are limited resources. No one has endless energy. No one has endless time. So, you have to time it right. First thing is to start observing yourself. When you are at your best, you must do things. And if you observe yourself sufficiently, you will see you have to be at your best every moment.
时机是最重要的事,因为你生命中拥有的时间和能量是有限的。没有人的能量用之不竭。没有人的时间无穷无尽。所以,你需要找准时机。第一件事就是开始观察自己。当你状态最佳,你就必须做事。如果你充分地观察自己,你会发现每时每刻都需要处在最佳状态。
【思考】
奉献:
有幸是昨儿十五去佛堂,礼拜,诵经,品尝了大厨的美食,也尝了他们自己搓的汤圆,和粉红的鸡蛋。
之前有很多人,质疑我说,去佛堂,怎么感觉很奇怪的样子,才多大,信佛?等等之类的。
我并没有解释,也不想解释,因为人们只会设想他们思考当中的模样,而不会去体验感受过去下结论,所以无需去解释。
我只想说,我看到的是一群人的奉献,和一起的欢乐。
没有一个人无所事事的做着,大家都忙或者,自己找事情来干,准备贡品的、洗菜的、做菜的、准备桌凳的、泡茶沏茶的,井然有序。不会看到说赖着啥都不做的,你会发现在那个场合下,大家都变得如此的勤劳。不知道是不是那个场合所散发出来的是一种弥勒佛似的喜乐,传播给了每个人,也让每个人脸上总是洋溢着微笑。
古礼进贡之后,大家开始诵几部经,祈求风调雨顺国泰民安。然后有什么愿望许许愿。
没有寺庙里的嘈杂,也没有任何宣传式的洗脑,有的只是静静的去体验,去感受,去旁观一下大家是如何做事情的。
吃完前感恩,会让饭菜更可口好吃。一碗姜汤没有陷的汤圆,或许是最南方的做法了,团团圆圆,美美满满。
吃完饭后,大家一起喝茶聊天,吃些水果零食。抽个红包,年算是过完了。
其实,我们总会以宗教的眼光去看待经典,却忽略了很多经书之中的大智慧,并不是宗教之人才需要去阅读的。我们也总是以教派来分门别类,却忘记了万方经典而归一,所有的本质都是相同的,只是出发的途径不同而已。奉献的精神都是一致的,也就是为人民服务,只是说法不尽相同而已。要想人人为我,得先我为人人。奉献,是永恒的主题和课题。
【每日一句】
没有阳光的沐浴,是一种抑郁。
【梦境】
不记得有。
【每日反思与改过】
昨天中午没有休息就跟熬夜一样,整个下午都是头重脚轻根底浅的感觉,以后争取能够有午休的时间,哪怕简短的10多分钟也好。
昨天抽签抽到了 人生要做减法。细想一番,确实是,要慢慢的沉淀下来,知道想要的和要实现的,而不是其他相关的。
