2009/4/6古儒吉在澳洲雪梨的談話...
主題: 運用靈修練習與知識技巧面對事件
Sydney, Australia, April 6: All the problems that you face in life are because you attach over importance to events. The events grow bigger while you remain smaller. Say, for example, you are riding a motorbike on a busy street and in front of you, another vehicle is emitting exhaust fumes. You have three options:
1. You can complain, somehow bear with it, and still follow the vehicle.
2. You can slow down or wait for some time to allow the vehicle to move far away from you.
3. You can use your skill, overtake the vehicle, and forget about it.
As in the first case, most of you stick on the events and are miserable, like inhaling fumes throughout your journey.
In the second case, you don’t get permanent relief, because another bigger vehicle might come in front of you. Running away from events is not the permanent solution.
Wise people use their skill to surmount the event. If the vehicle is in perfect condition, the skill is effective.
Conditioning the vehicle is Sadhana – practice. And skill is the grace of the Guru. The mistakes you have made in the past have made you humble; you need not make mistakes in the future to become humble.
What Sri Sri Said:‘ Meditation is the journey to the big mind’
澳洲雪梨, 4月6日:
生命中你面對的所有問題,都是因為你過度重視事件的重要性。事件越滾越大可是你仍然一樣小。例如,你騎摩托車在繁忙的街道上,在你的面前,一輛車正排放著廢氣。你有三個選擇:
1 。你可以抱怨、忍受它,仍然跟著那車前進。
2 。你可以開慢一點或等待一段時間,使那車輛遠離你。
3 。你可以運用你的技巧,超越那部車,並把它拋在腦後。
第一種情況下,你被事件黏住且覺得悲慘,整個旅程都在吸入廢氣。
第二種情況下,你不會得到永久的解脫,因為另一個更大的車輛可能會出現在你面前。跑離事件並非是永久的解決辦法。
聰明的人運用他們的技巧克服事件。如果車況是完美的,技巧就非常有效。
調控車況就是靈修-練習。技巧是上師的恩典。過去你犯過的錯誤已讓你謙卑;你不必為了未來的謙卑而犯錯。
