INVOCATION:Thou Mighty, Invincible "I AM Presence"! Speak Thyself into the hearts of the children of men! Fill their hearts and minds to overflowing with the Magnificence of Thy Presence, with the conscious strength to look to Thee and know Thee as "the One, " the Mighty, Eternal Source of all things by which the consciousness of mankind is sustained. Make them to know Thy Great Ownership, that it is Thee alone who art the Owner and Giver of all things, that they may thus manifest unselfishly one to the other. We thank Thee.
祈求:祢強大,無敵 “I am presence”!向人類兒女的心中說話!讓他們的心靈和思想充滿祢的壯麗,充滿祢的壯麗,有意識的力量仰望祢,認識祢是“唯一”,萬物的強大、永恆的源頭,人類的意識賴以維繫。讓他們知道祢的偉大擁有權,只有祢是萬物的擁有者和給予者,這樣他們就可以無私地彼此顯現。我們感謝您。
I bring you Greetings from the Great Host, who are ever pouring Their Radiant Presence into your lives.
我為您帶來來自偉大軍團的問候,他們永遠將他們光芒四射的存在注入您的生活。
THE DISCOURSE
話語
It is with great rejoicing that the many who have been observant of this accomplishment see how truly the students are entering into the "Mighty I AM Presence"; and how the things that have been disturbing are being dissolved and are dropping away as though they never had been
許多一直觀察這一成就的人都非常高興地看到學生們如何真正地進入了「全能的我是臨在」;以及那些一直令人不安的事物是如何被消解和消失的,就好像它們從未有過一樣.
Beloved Students, can you realize how great Our Rejoicing is? We have trod the pathway of attainment into that Great Freedom of Mastery over all limitation. We rejoice to see you entering into this Presence which, if maintained, will bring you certainly and surely to this same Freedom. It is only when the outer becomes sufficiently obedient, giving all power to the Great Inner Presence, that one finds peace and rest in this Mighty Acknowledgment.
親愛的同學們,您能體會到我們的喜樂是多麼偉大嗎?我們已經踏上了通往超越所有限制的偉大自由的道路。我們欣喜地看到你們進入這個臨在,如果保持下去,將肯定地把你們帶到同樣的自由中。只有當外在變得足夠服從,將所有力量都交給偉大的內在臨在時,一個人才能在這個偉大的承認中找到平靜和安息。
In that peace and rest flows a Mighty River of Energy, like a mountain stream flowing through a fertile valley, lined with flowers and perfect vegetation.
在那寧靜與安息中,流淌著一條強大的能量河,就像一條流經肥沃山谷的山澗,兩旁開滿了鮮花和完美的植被。
So in the Peace that passeth understanding do you move more and more, finding that Eternal River of Energy flowing into and through your Being, spreading its blessing and opulence into your Life and experience everywhere you go.
因此,在出人意料的和平中,你越來越多地移動,發現那永恆的能量之河流入並穿過你的存有,將它的祝福和豐富傳播到你的生活和體驗中,無論你走到哪裡。
While it is true that the intelligence is the channel through which you must receive, yet as you feel with deep sincerity the Truth of the "I AM Presence, " you will find the stillness becoming greater and greater, until one day: "Thou shalt see the door of thy creation open wide before thee, and thou shalt step forth with open arms into that Freedom, inhaling the Fragrance of the Pure Atmosphere of the Etheric World, wherein thou wilt be able to mold that plastic substance into the Perfection of everything upon which thy desire is held."
雖然情報確實是你必須接收的管道,但當你以深深的真誠感受到“我是臨在”的真理時,你會發現寂靜越來越大,直到有一天:“你將看到你的創造之門在你面前敞開,你將張開雙臂踏入那自由, 吸入乙太世界純凈大氣的芬芳,在那裡你能夠將這種可塑性物質塑造成你所渴望的一切的完美。
You are making such splendid progress; do not let any fear of persons, places, conditions or things interrupt or disturb you, for the "Presence of the Light" stands before you, beckoning you on, that you may be held in Its fond embrace, receiving of Its boundless riches of every description which It holds in store for you.
你正在取得如此輝煌的進步;不要讓任何對人、地方、條件或事物的恐懼打斷或干擾你,因為 “光的臨在” 站在你面前,向你招手,讓你被它深情的懷抱,接受它為你準備的每一種形式的無限財富。
I shall now say something which may seem astonishing, but I assure you, it is very true. Last night as the question was asked — had you all been together before—I wish to say that it would not have been possible for you to have been drawn into this intensified Action of the Great Inner Law if you had not previously had harmonious association and training. While it may be difficult at first for you to comprehend it, you are receiving intensified training which heretofore has only been given after a three year probation in the Retreat. Some of you have stored-up treasures of Energy. I mean by that, energy created by your conscious activity through your "I AM Presence. " Others have stored-up treasures of Light. Again, others have treasures of Love. Others have gold and jewels which were placed in keeping to be used in this embodiment. Several of you are on the point of releasing into visibility—into your hands— these stored-up treasures. Do not think I have gone into fancy daydreaming, but I am calling this to your attention for your benefit and blessing.
我現在要說一些可能看起來令人吃驚的事情,但我向你保證,這是非常真實的。昨晚,當被問到這個問題時——如果你們以前都在一起的話——我想說,如果你們之前沒有和諧的交往和訓練,你們就不可能被吸引到偉大內在法則的這種強化行動中。雖然一開始你可能很難理解,但你正在接受國際培訓,到目前為止,這隻是在靜修會中經過三年的試用期后才給予的。你們中的一些人已經積蓄了能量的寶藏。我的意思是,你的意識活動通過你的 「我是臨在」 產生的能量。其他人則積蓄了光明的寶藏。同樣,其他人擁有愛的寶藏。其他具有黃金和寶石,這些黃金和寶石被保存下來以用於本實施例。你們中的一些人正準備將這些積攢起來的寶藏釋放到你們的手中。 不要以為我做了花哨的白日夢,但我提請你注意這件事,是為了你的益處和祝福。
I wish each one of you to go by yourselves sometime during the day for at least five minutes and talk to your "I AM Presence" something like this: "Great Masterful Presence which 'I AM'! I love, I adore Thee. I give back unto Thee the fullness of all Creative Power, all Love, all Wisdom, and through this Power which Thou art, I give Thee full power to make visible in my hands and use the fulfillment of my every desire. I no longer claim any power as my own, for I now claim Thee, the Only and All-Conquering Presence in my home, my Life, my world and my experience. I acknowledge Thy Full Supremacy and Command of all things; and as my consciousness is fixed upon an achievement, Your Invincible Presence and Intelligence takes command and brings the fulfillment into my experience quickly—even with the speed of thought.
我希望你們每個人都能在白天的某個時間獨自去至少五分鐘,和你們的 “我是臨在” 這樣說:“偉大的大師臨在,'我是'!我愛你,我崇拜你。我把所有創造的力量、所有的愛、所有的智慧都歸還給你,通過你是這力量,我把全部的力量賜給你,使你能在我的手中顯現出來,並實現我的每一個願望。我不再聲稱任何力量是我自己的,因為我現在聲稱你是我的家、我的生命、我的世界和我的經歷中唯一和無所不能的存在。我承認祢對萬物的完全至高無上和命令;當我的意識專注於一項成就時,您的無敵存在和智慧會發號施令,並迅速將成就感帶入我的體驗中——即使以思考的速度。
"I know that Thou art ruler over time, place and space. Therefore, Thou requirest only now to bring into the visible activity Thy every Perfection. I stand absolutely firm in the full acceptance of this, now and forever, and I shall not allow my mind to waver from it, for at last, I know we are One. "
“我知道您是時間、地點和空間的統治者。因此,祢現在只需要將祢的每一完美帶入可見的活動中。我絕對堅定地完全接受這一點,從現在到永遠,我不會讓我的思想動搖它,因為最後,我知道我們是一體的。“
Beloved Students, you may add or weave into this anything else you wish for your requirement; and I assure you, if you can live in this — and I shall endeavor to help you do so—you will experience the opening of the floodgates of God's Abundance.
親愛的學生們,你可以根據你的要求添加或編織任何其他東西;我向你保證,如果你能生活在這個——我將努力説明你做到這一點——你將體驗到上帝豐盛的閘門的打開。
I think here that I should explain to you: the most important, the most desirable thing that anyone can do is to fix within his or her mind the one, permanent necessity, and that is to keep at it until one reaches so deeply and firmly into this "Mighty I AM Presence, " that all Love, Light, Good and Riches flow into his Life and experience by an Inner Propelling Power that naught of outer Personalities may at any time, anywhere, ever interfere with.
我想在這裡我應該向你解釋:任何人能做的最重要、最令人嚮往的事情,就是在他或她的心中固定一個永恆的必要性,那就是堅持下去,直到一個人如此深刻和堅定地進入這個“強大的我是臨在”,所有的愛、光、 善與富通過一種內在的力量流入他的生活和體驗,這種力量是外在人格所無法隨時隨地干擾的。
This is the object of true training. This is why students were brought into the Retreats as they could be found ready, or sufficiently progressed, because, as I have said before, it is easy enough to solve your problems as they come along; but I ask you, what good does it do to continue to solve problems unless you have something, somewhere, to which you can anchor that raises you above the consideration of any problem?
這就是真正訓練的目標。這就是為什麼學生們被帶到閉關中的原因,因為他們可以被發現已經準備好了,或者已經充分進步了,因為,正如我之前所說,在問題出現時解決它們很容易;但我要問你,除非你在某個地方有東西可以錨定,使你超越對任何問題的考慮,否則繼續解決問題有什麼好處呢?
To find your "I AM Presence" and anchor to It is the only desirable thing to do. Until you come to this point of firm anchorage to your "Great I AM Presence, " of course it is necessary to solve your problems as they come along; but how much better it is to enter in and set free that Mighty Presence, Energy and Action which has already solved the problems before they appear to you. Is this not more acceptable than to awaken every morning and find these problems coming up—staring you in the face— as though they were something really important, which, after all, they are not? Yet I AM sure you will agree with Me that some of them or at least your outer sense about them, is that they are tremendously ponderous.
找到你的 「我是臨在」 並錨定它是唯一可取的事情。在你到達這個牢牢錨定你的 「偉大的我是臨在 」的點之前,當然有必要在你出現的問題出現時解決它們;但是,進入並釋放那強大的存在、能量和行動,在問題出現之前就已經解決了問題,那該有多好啊。這難道不比每天早上醒來發現這些問題出現——盯著你的臉——好像它們是真正重要的事情,但畢竟它們不是這樣嗎?然而,我相信你會同意我的觀點,他們中的一些人,或者至少你對他們的外在感覺,是他們非常沉重。
With your glorious obedience to the Divine Principle of created Beings, you shall move along the pathway with your Armor of Invincible Protection buckled on, until the intensity of the very Light that you enter into will no longer require the armor.
憑藉你對受造物神聖原則的光榮服從,你將戴上無敵防護盔甲沿著這條道路前進,直到你進入的光的強度不再需要盔甲。
Is this not worth all the effort it takes to accomplish it, that you may ever move in this Glorious Freedom? Then when you awaken in the morning, you will no longer find these visitors appear.
這難道不值得你付出一切努力來完成它,以便你能在這光榮的自由中行動嗎?然後當你早上醒來時,你將不再發現這些訪客出現。
As I have spoken these Words, I have held you, each one, in the Searchlight of my Vision, even without your permission, so that when you hear these Words you will feel the Inner Conviction of them with a strength which will delight you.
當我說這些話時,即使未經你的允許,我也把你,每一個人,都放在我視野的探照燈下,這樣當你聽到這些話時,你會感受到它們內心的信念,有一種讓你感到高興的力量。
When critical or disturbing thoughts try to find entrance into your consciousness, slam the door quickly and command them to be gone forever. Do not give them a chance, nor time to gain a foothold, remembering always that you have the Strength and the sustaining Power of the "Mighty I AM Presence" to do this. Should you have difficulty in holding the door shut, talk to your "I AM Presence" and say: "See here! I need help! See that the door to this disturbance is closed, and kept closed forever. "
當批判性或令人不安的想法試圖進入你的意識時,迅速關上門並命令它們永遠消失。不要給他們機會,也不要給他們時間來站穩腳跟,永遠記住,你擁有“強大的我是臨在”的力量和維持力量來做到這一點。如果你難以關上門,請與你的 「我是臨在」 交談並說:“看這裡!我需要説明!要注意,這種干擾的門是關閉的,並且永遠關閉。“
I want you to get fixed in your consciousness that you can talk to your "I AM Presence" the same as you could talk to Me, believing that I had Limitless Power, because I tell you, it is no idle comment when I say you can cause this Mighty Presence to handle every condition in your entire experience and raise you into Its Freedom and Dominion of all things.
我希望你在你的意識中得到固定,你可以和你的 “我是臨在” 交談,就像你可以和我交談一樣,相信我有無限的力量,因為我告訴你,當我說你可以讓這個強大的存在處理你整個體驗中的每一種情況,並將你提升到它的自由和對萬物的統治時,這絕不是無稽之談。
As some of you have already reached into the activity of the Universal Substance, I want to call the attention of all of you to the fact that the substance of your bodies and this substance, seeming to be invisible about you, is immensely sensitive to your conscious thought and feeling— by which you can mold it into any form you wish.
既然你們中的一些人已經觸及到宇宙物質的活動中,我想呼籲你們所有人注意這樣一個事實,即你們身體的物質和這種物質,似乎對你們的意識思想和感受極其敏感——通過它,你可以將其塑造成你想要的任何形式。
The substance of your body can, by your conscious thought and feeling, be molded into the most exquisite beauty of form—your eyes, hair, teeth, and skin made dazzling with radiant beauty. This should be very encouraging to the ladies, and I am sure will be to the gentlemen, only they do not like to admit it.
通過你的有意識的思想和感覺,你的身體物質可以被塑造成最精緻的形式之美——你的眼睛、頭髮、牙齒和皮膚都散發著光芒四射的美麗。這對女士們來說應該是非常鼓舞人心的,我相信對先生們來說也是,只是他們不願意承認。
Beloved Brothers and Sisters, when you look into the mirror, say to that which you see there: "Through the Intelligence and Beauty which 'I AM,' I command you to take on Perfect Beauty of form, for 'I AM' that Beauty in every cell of which you are composed. You shall respond to my command and become radiantly beautiful in every way, in thought, word, feeling and form. 'I AM' the Fire and Beauty of your eyes, and I carry forth this Radiant Energy into everything into which I look." Thus you can cause to come into appearance the Perfection which will give you all the encouragement you want, to know that " 'I AM' always the Governing Presence. "
親愛的兄弟姐妹們,當你看著鏡子時,對你在那裡看到的事物說:“通過'我是'的智慧和美,我命令你呈現出完美的形式之美,因為'我是'構成你的每一個細胞中的美。 你要聽從我的命令,在思想、言語、感情和形式上,在各個方面都變得光彩照人。'我是“你眼中的火焰和美麗,我將這種輻射能量帶入我所看到的一切。因此,你可以使完美的顯現出來,這將給你所有你想要的鼓勵,讓你知道“'我是'永遠是掌控性的臨在。
I to say to you who desire your forms to become more symmetrical: start your hands at the shoulders, and bring them down over the body to the feet, feeling the Perfection or symmetry of the form you wish. Through your hands will go the energy or quality which you desire to manifest. If you will try this with deep, earnest feeling, you will be amazed at the result. This is the greatest reducer in the world. This, I assure you will cause the flesh, as it comes into more beautiful symmetry and Perfection, to become firm and yet supple in every way, because you are sending the energy of the " I AM Presence" through these cells, causing them to obey your command. This may sound ridiculous, but I tell you, it is one of the best, surest and most perfect ways to bring about the Perfection of the body. I tell you, anyone who will practice this will bring the body into any condition that one desires.
我想對那些希望自己的形式變得更加對稱的人說:將雙手從肩膀開始,然後放到身體上到腳上,感受你想要的形式的完美或對稱。通過你們的雙手,你們渴望顯現的能量或品質將流出。如果你以深刻、認真的感受來嘗試,你會對結果感到驚訝。這是世界上最偉大的減速機。我向你保證,這將使肉體,當它進入更美麗的對稱和完美時,在各個方面都變得堅韌而又柔軟,因為你正在通過這些細胞發送“我是臨在”的能量,使它們服從你的命令。這聽起來可能很荒謬,但我告訴你,這是實現身體完美的最好、最可靠和最完美的方法之一。我告訴你,任何願意這樣做的人都會使身體進入一個人想要的任何狀態。
I want the students to get the fullness of the idea that they are masters of their forms, their minds and their worlds, and can inject into them whatsoever they wish. The Pure and Perfect Life of God is flowing through you every instant; why not switch off the old design and switch on the new? Do you not see how important it is to perfect the body?
我希望學生們能得到完整的想法,即他們是自己的形式、思想和世界的主人,可以隨心所欲地注入他們。上帝純潔完美的生命每時每刻都在流淌在你身上;為什麼不關閉舊設計並打開新設計呢?你難道沒有看到完善身體有多重要嗎?
What can the Inner Presence do with a body that is sick or out of harmony all the time? When this is the case, the attention becomes so fixed upon the body that the "I AM Presence" cannot get the attention but a little part of the time. It is so easy, if you will but do it. With this treatment of the flesh with the energy of the "I AM Presence, " it becomes firm and Perfect.
內在臨在能對一個一直生病或不和諧的身體做什麼呢?當這種情況發生時,注意力變得如此集中在身體上,以至於 “我是臨在” 無法得到關注,只能得到一小部分時間。如果你願意的話,這很容易。通過這種以“我是臨在”的能量對肉體的處理,它變得堅固和完美。
The reason I speak of this with such deep, earnest feeling today is because I see the change and improvement in almost everyone; and by special conscious attention directed to this, how much more quickly will each be brought into the Perfection which he desires.
我今天之所以以如此深刻、真誠的感情談論這件事,是因為我幾乎看到了每個人的變化和改進;通過特別有意識地關注這一點,每個人將以更快的速度進入他所渴望的完美。
When an individual has an abnormal abdomen, and anything that is more than straight is abnormal, he should raise the left hand in this position, palm up, move the right hand in a rotary motion over the abdomen, moving from left to right. Each time the hand passes over it, feel deeply the absorbing activity.
當一個人的腹部異常時,任何超過筆直的東西都是異常的,他應該在這個位置舉起左手,手掌向上,右手在腹部上旋轉移動,從左向右移動。每次手經過它時,都深深地感受到這種吸收活動。
The quick charge of energy through the hand goes into the cells, contracting and reducing them into a normal condition. I assure you this Instruction is no idle fancy, but is of tremendous import, and It will accomplish the purpose for which It is used, absolutely without question—if applied with earnest feeling.
通過手快速充電的能量進入細胞,收縮並使它們恢復到正常狀態。 我向你保證,這個指示不是空想,而是具有巨大的意義,如果以真誠的感情應用,它絕對毫無疑問地實現它被使用的目的。
The consciousness, of course, should be that the energy flowing through the right hand is the All-Powerful, Absorbing Presence, consuming the unnecessary cells and bringing the body into a Perfect, normal condition.
當然,意識應該是流經右手的能量是全能的、吸收的存在,消耗不必要的細胞,使身體進入完美、正常的狀態。
This will not only adjust the abnormal size of the abdomen, but will penetrate through the form, charging the intestinal activity with a cleansing, purifying process which will be of inestimable benefit. Those who have found the activity of those organs lazy will find them quickened into normal action. I assure you that the ladies will not need to use rolling pins or roll on the floor; also I assure you the ladies are not the only ones who use rolling pins.
這不僅會調整腹部的異常大小,還會滲透到表格中,為腸道活動提供清潔、凈化過程,這將帶來不可估量的好處。那些發現這些器官的活動懶惰的人會發現它們加速了 正常行動。 我向你保證,女士們不需要使用擀麵杖或在地板上滾動;另外,我向你保證,女士們並不是唯一使用擀麵杖的人。
The unfortunate, almost appalling condition is that individuals, having within them this Mighty God Presence, will give every imaginable power to outside things to produce results within and upon themselves, when whatever remedial agent they use, whether exercise, drugs, or anything else, has little effect, if any—except the quality and power they have consciously given these agents. This treatment acts upon the cells wherever they are, be they bones or flesh.
不幸的是,幾乎令人震驚的情況是,個人在他們內在擁有這個全能的上帝存在,當他們使用任何補救措施,無論是運動、藥物還是其他任何東西,除了他們有意識地賦予這些因素的品質和力量之外,幾乎沒有效果,如果有的話,他們會把一切可以想像的力量賦予外部事物,以產生內部和在他們自己身上的結果。這種處理作用於細胞,無論它們在哪裡,無論是骨骼還是肉。
How prone the outer mind is to question the ability of this Inner Self to handle any part of the body. If It will handle one kind of a cell, It will handle all.
外在的思想是多麼容易質疑這個內在自我處理身體任何部位的能力。如果 It 將處理一種 cell,它將處理所有 cell。
Make the outer accept the Full Power of the Inner Presence, and thus let It expand into use in all things.
讓外在接受內在臨在的全部力量,從而讓它擴展到萬物中。
The outer mind, through long habit, has given enormous power to drugs and remedial agents of every kind; but do you not see that the only thing that does it is the power and authority you give it to have an effect upon your body? I do not mean for a single instant that individuals who have not become aware of the "I AM Presence" should cease all remedial agents; but if they will fix in their minds firmly that no outer thing has any Power in their experience, except what they give it, they will begin to rise out of the limitations into which they have placed themselves. Here let me say that ninety percent of the power given to outer things is unconsciously given, and even most students are not aware of it.
外在的思想,通過長期的習慣,賦予了各種藥物和補救措施巨大的力量;但是你難道沒有看到,唯一能做到這一點的是你賦予它的力量和權威,使它對你的身體產生影響嗎?我並不是說那些沒有意識到「我是在場」的人一刻都應該停止所有補救措施;但是,如果他們在心中堅定地認為,在他們的經驗中,沒有任何外在事物有任何力量,除了他們賦予它的東西之外,他們就會開始擺脫他們所處的限制。在這裡,我想說的是,賦予外在事物的力量有 90% 是無意識地賦予的,甚至大多數學生都沒有意識到這一點。
Now to turn about and give this Great God Presence within you all power to do the things you require and wish to do will accomplish them with a speed and certainty far beyond what any outside remedial agent could do. Some will grasp this idea with tremendous tenacity, while others will require more effort; but it is surely worthwhile making any effort to accomplish it.
現在轉過身來,賦予你內在這個偉大的上帝臨在所有的力量去做你需要和希望做的事情,將以遠遠超過任何外部補救者所能做到的速度和確定性來完成它們。有些人會以極大的毅力抓住這個想法,而另一些人則需要更多的努力;但為實現它付出任何努力肯定是值得的。
Remember, the "I AM Presence" knows all things for all eternity, in all ways—past, present and future—without limit. If the student would think of this Great Presence, contemplate It, and know that It is all Love, Wisdom and Power, then when he fixes his attention on something to be accomplished, he knows this Presence is the open door, the All-powerful accomplishment, and It cannot fail.
請記住,“我是臨在”知道一切事物,永遠以各種方式——過去、現在和未來——沒有限制。 如果學生會思考這個偉大的存在,沉思它,並知道它全是愛、智慧和力量,那麼當他把注意力集中在要完成的事情上時,他就知道這個存在是敞開的門,是全能的成就,它不會失敗。
Call on the Law of Forgiveness, and direct the energy of the Master Self to correct and adjust the wrong, and in that way, obtain freedom from its reaction. You see, My Dear People, that there is so much unnecessary.' Power given to the outer activity and stress of things which the "I AM Presence" cares absolutely nothing about. It is at no time concerned with the mistakes of the outer self. If the individual but understood that he could turn away from all these discordant activities and give the "Master I AM Presence" Within all authority and power to dissolve and dissipate the wrong condition, he could never in any way feel the reactions from his wrongdoing.
呼喚寬恕法則,並引導主我的力量來糾正和調整錯誤,以這種方式,從其反應中獲得自由。你看,我親愛的人們,有太多不必要的力量被賦予了事物的外在活動和壓力,而“我是臨在”完全不在乎。它在任何時候都不關心外在自我的錯誤。如果這個人明白他可以遠離所有這些不和諧的活動,並在所有權威和力量中給予“明師我是臨在”來化解和消散錯誤的狀況,那麼他就永遠無法以任何方式感受到他的錯誤行為的反應。
When the individual allows himself or herself to continue to criticize, condemn or judge another of his fellow beings, he is not only injuring the other person, but is unknowingly admitting into his own experience the very element that he is seeing wrong in the other Person. The true understanding of this will make it easy for individuals to forever cease such undesirable activity—when they know that it is for their own protection.
當一個人允許他或她自己繼續批評、譴責或評判他的另一個同胞時,他不僅傷害了另一個人,而且在不知不覺中承認 了他在另一個人身上看到錯誤的因素。對此的真正理解將使個人很容易永遠停止這種不受歡迎的活動——當他們知道這是為了保護自己時。
Let us put it in another way. Whatever the conscious attention is fixed firmly upon, that quality is impelled into the experience of the individual. Whatever an individual sees with deep feeling within another individual, he forces into his own experience. This is the indisputable proof of why the only desirable feeling to be sent out from any individual is the Presence of Divine Love— and I mean by that, Pure, Unselfish Love.
讓我們換一種說法。無論有意識的注意力被牢牢地固定在什麼上,這種品質都會被推入個人的體驗中。一個人在另一個人內心深處看到的任何東西,他都會強行進入他自己的體驗。這是無可爭辯的證據,說明為什麼從任何個體那裡發出的唯一可取的感覺是神聖之愛的存在——我的意思是,純粹、無私的愛。
Students ofttimes wonder why they have so many conditions in their experience to handle as they become more and more sensitive. It is because they see an appearance which they have been taught to know is not real, and by allowing their attention to become fixed upon it, they not only invite, but force it into their own worlds, and then have a battle in order to clean house. This can be avoided by instantly taking the attention off the appearance and knowing: " 'I AM,' 'I AM,' I KNOW 'I AM' free from thing forever—no matter what it is. "
學生們經常想知道為什麼隨著他們變得越來越敏感,他們的經歷中有這麼多情況需要處理。這是因為他們看到了一個他們被教導知道不是真實的表像,通過讓他們的注意力集中在它上面,他們不僅邀請,而且強迫它進入他們自己的世界,然後為了清理房子而進行一場戰鬥。這可以通過立即將注意力從外表上移開並知道來避免:“'我是','我是',我知道'我是'永遠擺脫事物——無論它是什麼。
This all comes, of course, from a lack of Self-control in the individual, or an unwillingness to use that Self-control to govern the outer. There are these two distinct conditions with students: one is willing enough to make the effort, but unknowingly allows his attention to become fixed on the undesirable things. The other one, through a quality of stubbornness, is unwilling to make the necessary effort to conquer it.
當然,這一切都源於個人缺乏自我控制,或者不願意使用這種自我控制來管理外在。學生有兩種截然不同的情況:一個人願意付出努力,但不知不覺中讓他的注意力集中在不受歡迎的事情上。另一個人,由於固執的品質,不願意付出必要的努力來征服它。
No teacher should at any time hold a thought of criticism about any student, for if he does, he will invite that same criticism unto himself. If students get the right idea about this, they will stop it for their own protection.
任何教師都不應該在任何時候對任何學生抱有批評的想法,因為如果他這樣做了,他就會招致同樣的批評。 如果學生對此有正確的想法,他們會為了保護自己而停止它。
If one keeps silently seeing a discrepancy in another, it is even worse than the spoken word, for it allows the force to accumulate. When discrepancies are forced upon your attention, simply say to your "I AM Presence": "There is the 'I AM Presence' within that person, and with the human I AM not concerned." It matters not whether it is a Person or inanimate object, the moment you see an imperfection, you are forcing that quality into your own experience. This is so important, it cannot be stressed enough
如果一個人一直默默地看到另一個人的差異,那甚至比口頭語言更糟糕,因為它允許力量積累。當你注意到差異時,只需對你的 “我是臨在” 說:“那個人內在有 '我是臨在',對於這個人,我並不關心。不管它是人還是無生命的物體,當你看到一個不完美時,你就在將這種品質強加到你自己的體驗中。這非常重要,怎麼強調都不為過.
Your first consideration should always be to your own Divine Self— adoration to It always. This gives you the opportunity and strength to rise to the height where you can give help to thousands, where now it can only be to a few.
你的首要考慮應該永遠是你自己的神聖自我——永遠對它的崇拜。這給了你機會和力量,讓你能夠提升到可以給成千上萬人説明的高度,而現在只能幫助少數人。
No amount of service can be of any permanent benefit unless the individual first accepts and gives adoration to his own Divine Self, the "Mighty I AM Presence." Those who want to serve the Light and really do good should understand this clearly.
除非個人首先接受並崇拜他自己的神聖自我,即「強大的我是臨在」,否則再多的服務都不可能有任何永久的好處。那些想要服務神聖之光並真正做好事的人應該清楚的理解這一點。
When students say: "If I only had the money, what good I could do," it is exactly the reverse thing that they ought to do. If one will enter into the "I AM Presence, " he will have all the money he wants, and it cannot be kept away from him.
當學生們說:“如果我只有錢,我還能做些什麼”時,這正是他們應該做的相反的事情。如果一個人進入“我是臨在”,他將擁有他想要的所有錢,而且不能遠離他。
Take the stand with everyone: "There is only the
與大家一起站上立場:「只有
'I AM Presence' acting there in that person. "
“我是臨在”在那個人身上表演。"
It is much better not to touch upon a thing than to give an insufficient explanation.
不觸及一件事總比給出不充分的解釋要好得多。
All outer experience is but a discipline. For those who are coming into this Work, the present training is really a finishing school or experience; and that is why some of them feel it is a little strenuous. All the Ascended Host feel with great Joy the Love and gratitude poured out to Them, and of course They respond almost without limit.
所有外在經驗都只不過是一門學科。對於那些即將進入這項工作的人來說,目前的訓練實際上是一個完成學校或經驗;這就是為什麼他們中的一些人覺得這有點費力。所有揚升的軍團都以極大的喜悅感受到傾注給他們的愛和感激之情,當然,他們幾乎無限制地回應。
" 'I AM' is all there is, everywhere present, visible and invisible. "

The consciousness most needed for each individual will come from time to time as the students continue in the use of this. Do not let yourselves strain after things. Just take the calm, certain attitude of the Ascension. Calmly, quickly, lovingly accept It, and just Be. This avoids tension. Nothing is more powerful than this.
隨著學生繼續使用它,每個人最需要的意識會不時出現。不要讓自己為事情而緊張。只要採取揚升的平靜、確定的態度就行了。冷靜、迅速、充滿愛意地接受它,然後就去做。這樣可以避免緊張。沒有什麼比這更強大的了。
