從錫呂克里希納談聰明與智慧

*** 從錫呂克里希納談聰明與智慧 ***

人類最大的敵人是他的聰明才智（intelligence 或intellect，註一），因為人類的智力是如此有限，它又被極端地制約，而且它很自大，又十分盲目。至於智慧（wisdom，註二）則完全不同，你無法從學校或大學裏去獲得智慧。從何處可以獲得智慧呢？是經由你的靈（Spirit），你的靈會告訴你什麼是對、什麼是錯的完整概念。人的智力往往會接受錯誤的想法、觀念，往往是如此。人的智力並不是智慧，人們必須知道這一點，智力和智慧是兩樣不同的東西。

錫呂克里希納以祂的外交機智著名，祂有神聖的外交手腕（divine diplomacy），這表示什麼呢？這說明祂非常聰明。若没有聰明才智，你無法做許多事。所以錫呂克里希納就是用祂的聰明才智(去做許多事)，祂是非常有力量，没有什麼東西可以主宰祂，甚至連祂的聰明才智也無法主宰祂，聰明才智是為祂所用。所以你們應該要(學習)去使用你的聰明才智，而非被你的聰明才智所主宰。人類往往是變成他的聰明才智的奴役，但錫呂克里希納則是祂的聰明才智的主人，祂用祂的智力來解決許多問題，祂為人所稱道的靈活外交手腕，正是利用祂的才智來為上天（Divine）服務。而祂內在的神性也無時不刻來幫助祂使用其才智，所以可以說祂是祂的聰明才智的主人。不只如此，祂也是祂的制約、情緒及身體的主人，及其他一切的主人。當你主宰你的智力時，你可以很明白看清楚你的腦袋及智力(所告訴你的一切)。你的腦袋有可能告訴你一些讓你感覺良好的想法，如 "你是全世界最偉大的人"；或它也可能告訴你 "你是一個完全無用的人"。這個腦袋會騎在你上面來欺騙你，但是你現在已是一個霎哈嘉瑜伽士，你可以不再讓你的腦袋來引導你，而是要由你的智慧來引導你。你有一個很好的工具來判斷，即經由生命能量（vibration）來分辨什麼是(對你)好，什麼是不好的。

人的聰明才智是從何而來呢？我們需要從更精微的層面來探討。人的聰明是來自他的大腦變得較快速且活躍，我看過一些非常聰明的小孩，可是他們没有一點智慧，可以說他的大腦發展得較好，可能他有一個很聰明的母親及父親，他獲得很好的遺傳基因；也有可能是環境因素，例如從小讀很多書，在美國、英國即如此，他們讀很多書，什麼都讀，所以他們知道這個、那個，知道許多。你問他電腦，他也知道，有關機械的知識他也知道，政治事務也知道。這些都不是有關真理的知識，但因為他們知道很多，他們以為自己非常聰明。利用這些知識及活躍的腦袋，他們開始產生出一些聰明的構想，在美國尤其顯著，這些構想都指向如何從別人的口袋挖錢出來，如他們設計有生日的玩偶、為玩偶舉辦生日宴會、給寵物生曰禮物等等。

此外，像好萊塢的影片工業，那些令人膽顫心驚的電影也都是這些聰明心智的產物。西方世界創造出來的商標、名牌及流行服飾等亦是相同的產物。這些人自以為聰明，為自己賺了許多錢，但這些創造對消費者、對社會都没有什麼好處。去追求流行、炫耀名牌的人，往往以為自己聰明、跟得上潮流，其實這都是被人牽著鼻子走、最没有智慧的行為。(註三)

註一：譯者：intelligence 或intellect指的是人的才智、聰明，Shri Mataji 用此字表示的是我們俗稱的聰明、智力、頭腦，或腦袋、大腦等想出來的想法、構想。在此譯文中，譯者為行文流暢達意，交互使用上述幾個詞彙。

註二：Shri Mataji 談話中的wisdom (智慧)並非指比聰明更上一層、能談一點人生道理的聰慧，而是有特別的意思，是專指能知道什麼是對自己好的或不好(對的或錯的)的判斷力，而且其好壞的判定標準是針對自己的靈性，並非對自己的身體、自我或家人。例如去追求金錢、身份地位、名牌或尋歡作樂的人，以為這是對自己好，其實這只是滿足欲望、虚榮、非我或自我而已，這是没有智慧的行為，因為它們對你的靈性没有幫助，你的靈不會喜歡這些東西。

註三：最後這一段是譯者綜合Shri Mataji後段數十分鐘的談話，選其和前面談及智慧相關的文字濃縮翻譯而成的。

的談話1994-08-28. JSM ! 敬請霎哈嘉兄弟姊妹們指正.

So this ego business is actually taking energy of your intelligence, and the greatest enemy of a human being is, is his intelligence, I think, because it’s so limited, it is so conditioned, and it is so arrogant, and it is so blind.

Wisdom is a different thing. Wisdom you don’t get in colleges, schools, universities, nowhere. Where do you get it, the wisdom? You get it through your Spirit, which gives you a complete idea as to what is right and what is wrong. Whatever is wrong will be accepted by intellect, always. Intellect is not wisdom one must understand. They’re two things – wisdom and intellect. Now Krishna was known to be the diplomat. He had Divine diplomacy. That means what? He was very intelligent, no doubt. Without that you can’t do. I’ve met some people who are very highly placed who don’t have much intelligence even, but I have now seen that this intellect is a dangerous thing.

So Shri Krishna, He used His intellect. He is all powerful. Nothing can dominate Him. Even his intellect cannot dominate Him. He used His intellect. Difference between the two you should see. You should be able to use your intellect and not to be dominated by your intellect.

So He used His intellect by which He solved many problems. His whole diplomacy was to use His intellect and use it for the purpose of Divine. All the time the Divine in Him was helping Him to use His intellect. So the difference is that we are slaves of our intellect and He is the master of His intellect; not only, everything. His conditioning He is master, His emotions He is master, His body He’s the master. He’s master of everything. And when you master it you see your intellect very clearly, oh, this is what it is suggesting. This is not.

This intellect can give you very so-called positive ideas that you are the lord of the whole world. It’s supposed to be positive.

Or the same intellect can give you ideas that you are nothing. This intellect plays on top of you. Now you are not to be guided by your intellect, but by your wisdom, as you are Sahaja Yogis. So, you have a very good instrument of feeling it – through your vibrations you can make out what is good and what is bad. And you can see sometimes as being human beings, there are some intellectual effects also coming in. But with Sahaja Yoga you can judge, what is this intellect telling you.

Because the intellect that you have has come out of what – is the main thing; should go to the subtle point how this intellect has come to us.

This intellect has come to us because our brain became active very soon. I’ve seen some children extremely intelligent, but they have no wisdom. If your – only the brain develops too much, could be a mother is a very intelligent woman and, father must be very intelligent, inheritance would be great, so they get it. Or maybe the circumstances, like if you are born in a particular country you suddenly become very intelligent. I’ve seen Americans, they read all the time. All the time you see them reading. Even English they read. But what is the outcome of all that reading I don’t know. Every book they will read.

If you ask them what is a computer, they know the computers, this thing, that thing, that thing, all these … I don’t know how to even put off my television. If you ask them about television they will know they’ll… anything you want to know about mechanical things they will know. Anything about politics they will know, who’s father was that and they will tell you that, “No, no, no, no this is like this, this like that.” All this is avidya; is not knowledge. It is non-knowledge. So they think they’re very intelligent because they know everything, about everything. Now, with this intellect, as this consciousness comes in they start creating very intellectual ideas. Especially in America I have seen they have got for children all kinds of funny things just to extract money.

For example, there is a golliwog or something which has a birthday. Can you imagine? A birthday is there and sometimes, you see even the, people have big parties for that. Then they started, “Let us have birthday of the dogs” so they are having birthdays of the dogs.

錫呂毗濕奴與正法及平衡

*** 錫呂毗濕奴與正法及平衡 ***

錫呂毗濕奴(Shri Vishnu，註一)是這個宇宙的維持與保護者(preserver)。當這整個世界被創造時，也必須創造一位維護者，因為假如完全讓這個世界自行運作，而沒有一位維護者，那麼這個世界可能會被毁壞。(我們只需)考量人類的行事方式，人們是可能對這個世界做任何(破壞的)事。

錫呂毗濕奴不只是維護者，祂也是唯一真正有降世的神祇(incarnation)。當然梵天婆羅摩(Brahmadeva)亦降世過(一、二次)。在人類的演化過程，錫呂毗濕奴以不同的面貌(forms)(降世)，祂以不同的方式來到這個地球。祂也在祂周圍創造出許多偉大的先知(prophets)，所以他們可以來維護這宇宙的正法(dharma)。

祂所要維護的根本是正法，正法是靈性生命中最重要的基石，而在正法中正是要建立(人的)平衡(balance)，(因為)人類有一種特性，即在各種事物中都會走向極端，所以祂在人類的内在創造出一個平衡。可以說正法的第一個原理即是產生出平衡。

假如一個人没有平衡，那麼他將無法獲致昇進(註二)，這個道理很簡單，就如同你的飛機(左右)不平衡，那如何飛上天空呢？船也一樣，(左右)不平衡的船是無法航行的。同樣地，人們首先必須要先達到(左右)平衡。

註一：錫呂毗濕奴是駐在臍輪的神祇，此譯文談及臍輪的一個重點。

註二：Shri Mataji 在許多談話中都提過：幻海的十大宗師所談的都是正法，目的就是要協助人類獲致平衡，而就平衡就是為下一步做準備，即為中脈的昇進及自覺做準備。

的談話1994-08-28. JSM ! 敬請霎哈嘉兄弟姊妹們指正.

And Vishnu is the one who is the preserver of this universe. When this whole world was created it was necessary to create a preserver also because this world would have been destroyed and completely if it is left alone without a preserver, then the way human beings are, they could have done anything to this world.

But so, Vishnu is the preserver. He’s the preserver and He’s the only one really incarnates. Of course, sometimes Brahmadeva also incarnated, but He only takes forms. In our evolutionary process He has taken different forms. He came on this earth in different ways.

But still He had, as you say, twelve – up to twelve was Shri Rama and up through ten He was there. So He created also an atmosphere of the many great prophets around Himself so that they could preserve the dharma of this universe.

So the basis of preservation was dharma, which has got, as you know, the most important basic foundation for spiritual life. In this dharma whatever was to be established was to be established balance. Was a habit with people to go to extremes in anything.

So He created a balance within us. The first principle of dharma was to create balance. If a person doesn’t have a balance then he cannot achieve his ascent. As simple as that. If you don’t have a balance in your airplane it cannot ascend. If you don’t have a balance, say on a ship, it won’t move.

In the same way, first the human beings had to achieve the balance.

只有自覺的靈才適合土葬

*** 只有自覺的靈才適合土葬 ***

有些宗教相信人死後若將屍體埋葬，在數百年後(最後審判日來到時)，那肉體會走出墳墓，然後你會得救。基督教、猶太教及回教都有這樣子的說法，這也為什麼這三個宗教都將死人埋葬。這是非常荒謬可笑的想法，試想五百年後，你在墳墓裡的肉體還剩下什麼呢？(註一)你如何能像耶穌基督一樣復活呢？基督在死後三天就復活了，祂在星期五被釘上十字架，星期天早上即復活，甚至不到三天，但人們却妄想將屍體保存五百年！更不用說他們根本不是基督，耶穌基督的身體是完全不同的！(註二)

只有自覺的靈(realized soul)死後才可以被埋葬，一般普通人都不應如此，因為一般人有許多遺願，他們(死後)仍希望做這個、做那個，所以他們的靈魂(soul)可能仍會在屍體附近徘徊遊走。埋葬屍體不只佔據土地，又造成亡魂(bhoots)在那附近遊走。西方世界這種風俗是非常令人驚訝，當我第一次到巴黎，在市中心他們有一個很大的墓園，一般人很自然在那裏喝酒，因為所有埋在墳墓的酒鬼亡魂都跑出來鼓動這些人喝酒！

只有了解正法(dharma)的人才知道如何處理一般民眾及自覺的靈的死後事宜，只有那些合乎正法的人才可以(用土葬的方式)來保存他們的屍體，因為這些人的正法從臍輪(Nabhi)行到頭腦(註三)，而頭腦又供給靈的能量給所有的神經，所以自覺的靈的整個身體都充滿神聖能量(vibratory awareness)，這個肉體若埋到土裏面，人們是可以感覺到它的芬芳(fragrance)，(甚至)你在遠處即知道有一個聖人埋葬在那裏。(註四)

你們應該記得我談過這個故事，也看過那張有光照在我頭上的相片(註五)，我去Mian ki takli 村莊時，他們告訴我有一位蘇菲派(註六)的聖人叫Mianh，他死在這裏也埋葬於此地，立即我感覺到這能量(vibration)。當我在演講時，我看到他以光的方式呈現，然後他將光投射在我頭上，這就是相片所照到的景象，(他來向我致意)，我感到十分高興，當我將手放在頭上示意他停止，他就停止將光照在我頭上。他死後没變成一個亡魂，而是變成光，當任何地方有需要時，他就以光出現。

註一：約翰福音5：28，29：“ 時候 要 到 ， 所有 在 紀念墓 裏 的 人 都 要 聽見 他 的 聲音 ， 就 出來 。 行善 的 ， 復活 終 得 生命 ； 作惡 的 ， 復活 終 被 定罪 。”。

譯者：目前的聖經是不認為有輪迴的，但有些研究指出原始的聖經是主張有輪迴的，後來統治者為方便控制信徒而將有關輪迴的文句全部刪除，但仍留下一些蛛絲馬跡。在否定輪迴的主張之下，只好說人死後就繼續留在棺木中，當最後審判來臨時再走出來。Shri Mataji 在許多談話中都提過目前看到的聖經已被保羅及後人竄改過，其中約三四成是錯誤的。

註二：Shri Mataji：耶穌基督是由"唵"(Omkara，即：無所不在的神聖力量)構成的。

註三：臍輪的正法跑到頭腦是"生前即如此"或"死後"呢？原文看不出答案。

註四：Shri Mataji 在其他的談話也提過：埋葬在土裏的聖人身體的能量可以滋養母親大地。

註五：Shri Mataji 多次談話談及此故事，請看後面所附相片。

註六：蘇菲派(Sufi)是伊斯蘭教中的一個神秘主義教派，他們透過冥想及導師來接觸阿拉。

Like saying that if you die, and bury yourself – it is no soul they talk of – bury your body, then from the body after five hundred years, your body will come out, and you will be saved. After five hundred years, what will remain of the body? Such absurd ideas there are in these three religions: Christian, Jews and Muslims. That’s why they bury people. Now burying people means you are occupying the land, and also keeping the bhoots there. Like in… I was surprised, when I first came to Paris, that in the center of Paris they have got such a big cemetery. Naturally, people drink here – because most of the drunkards are sitting there inside the graves and they are inciting them to drink. It’s very surprising that in the West they have such absurd ideas that when you’ll be buried, then you’ll be resurrected like Christ. Just imagine… Christ was resurrected between three days. He died on Friday, resurrected on Sunday morning. Not even three days. But if you keep some body for five hundred years, who is not even Christ, – if Christ’s body, is different – what will come out of it? And so they are burying people. Only realized souls should be buried, not every common person. Because they still have their desires, their… they still want some things, their souls might be hanging around there…you see…that body. So, why should you keep the body in a place for years together? Then, after sometime, they’ll dig it up and make houses there. And all the bhoots must… coming in the house. So to understand dharma, we should also understand how we are going to deal with the death of general people and the death of Sahaja Yogis. Only if you are dharmic, it is not sufficient. There are many people who don’t do anything wrong, they’re very austere type, something, but they are not in balance, normally. They’re very hot tempered. If they are not hot tempered, they’re absolutely recluses, sit in the Himalayas, like that… But those people who are dharmic, – in the real sense of the word – once they ascend to the state of Virat, then only they are the people who should be preserved, their body should be preserved. Because the dharma from the nabhi goes to your brain, and brain supplies to all the nerves the energy of the spirit. So the whole body of a realized soul is full of vibratory awareness. If such a body is buried, you can even get fragrance. And from a distance you will know that there is some saint being buried here. If you remember, there are seven photographs of Mine, where the light is falling on Me. That was a village called Mian ki takli. They told me then, “Mianh, one Sufi saint, died in this place. So He is buried here.” Immediately, I felt the vibrations. And when I was sitting on the dais, I saw Him in the form of light, and He started throwing light on Me. And I was very happy; but when I stopped, He stopped it. He didn’t become a bhoot. No, He did not. He became the light. And wherever it was necessary, He showed His presence.

耶穌基督(一)

*** 耶穌基督(一) ***

我們必須了解耶穌基督(所帶來)的訊息，但是在這個世上總是有一些人，他們宣稱自己是理性主義者，而且他們有權利憑自己的喜好，來給耶穌一些評斷，像我今天早上看的報紙，我很驚訝他們的言論，他們說："我們無法接受有關耶穌的這些部分，即祂是非受孕而來的胎兒(Immaculate Conception，註一)，及祂從死裏再復活(resurrection)，及......等等。"。這些人以為他們是誰！他們如何有權利這樣說？只因為他們有寫字的本領？或許他們以為自己是學者，或讀了很多的書，或認為自己很有本領可以談任何話題，所以可以依自己的好惡來談論耶穌的種種。但是有關靈性的課題，並非人人都有能力去談，尤其是那些尚未得到自覺的人。

耶穌的一生是一個非常神聖的生命，是一個完全不同(於世俗人類)的生命，這並不是一般(普通的)人類心智可以了解的領域，可以說是超越人類的心智，甚至詩人及藝術家也是一樣，除非他們是自覺的靈，否則他們也無法正確看待耶穌的一生。

耶穌是以一個人類的身軀來到世上，但祂不是人類，祂是神聖的(divine)，完全是屬於神聖的。其實祂只是"唵"(Omkara，註二)，這就是為什麼(聖經上記載)祂可以在水上行走，因為没有任何的物質成分在祂身上，或說祂身上没有物質(matter)。假如祂身上有任何物質，祂就無法在水上行走。假如人類將這些事實都抛棄，不接受祂的(無受孕)誕生，不接受祂在水上行走及種種的奇蹟，那麼耶穌基督還剩下什麼呢？我實在無法理解這些人。

在耶穌的年代，没有飛機、汽車，但祂(不辭勞苦地)走過許多地方，對人們談靈性的生命。當時的人尚未演化、成熟到那個程度，所以祂無法給他們自覺，但祂對他們談什麼是符合正法的生活(dharmic life)。祂甚至把十戒講到極致，即人不只不應該有通姦的行為，連淫穢的目光都不可以。

其他的降世神祇在人間時，舉止行為都像人類，例如錫呂羅摩(Shri Rama)也常哭，錫呂克里希納(Shri Krishna)也娶了許多老婆，但是耶穌則完全不一樣，祂的行為舉止從未像人類，祂未結婚，也從未哭泣，除了對天父禱告時例外。祂在人世間的特質顯示出祂的神聖特質(divine personality)，不只活出神聖的特質，面臨死亡時也像神聖的特質。當人們對抹大拉瑪麗亞(Mary Magdalene，註三)丢石頭時，祂站出來、站在她前面對大家說：你們没有犯任何罪的人可以對她丢石頭！這個勇氣與自信正顯示出祂的神聖的特質。

耶穌基督接受祂的死亡與復活，這對祂是一件自然的事，因為祂對此完全了解，而且在死亡與再復活的過程祂也没有任何變化，即祂不必去轉換(transform)，復活之後的祂是和死去之前的祂是完全一樣，因為祂其實是不需要復活重生的，祂只是藉著祂的復活重生來告訴人類：人是可以得到自覺，因自覺而獲得復活重生。

祂要傳遞的訊息並不是十字架，而是這個復活重生。假如霎哈嘉練習者了解這一點，那麼你應該知道自己已從一般普通人(的階段)重生到神聖的階段。

註一：Immaculate Conception大多是指: "聖母瑪利亞及耶穌基督成胎時未沾染原罪"，但譯者認為Shri Mataji用此詞時指的是virgin birth，即聖母瑪利亞是處女懷胎，耶穌基督並未有人類的父親，這懷孕是來自上天的大能。

註二：即 Aum ，符號是ॐ。唵是太初之母(Adi Shakti)從至高濕婆神(Sadashiva )分裂出來時，產生的第一個聲音，錫呂格涅沙(Shri Ganesha)即是唵的具體化(1990-12-25)。唵也是無所不在的神聖力量(Divine Power, Chaitanya, Vibration)。

註三：約翰福音此處只提到一個淫婦，但並未指她是Mary Magdalene，Mary Magdalene出現在聖經其他章節時是其他的故事。關於Mary Magdalene到底是那一個人，還是有好幾位不同的人，一直有很多爭議。還好這無關重點。Shri Mataji 在許多談話中都提過耶穌基督和Mary Magdalene 沒有任何關係，那些在瞎掰他們是夫妻，甚至有生下小孩的傳聞，是非常無知且可笑。

註四： 江瑞凱摘譯自Shri Mataji 在復活節普祭(Easter Puja)的談話1994-04-03. JSM ! 敬請霎哈嘉兄弟姊妹們指正.

We have to understand the message of Christ. There are many people in this world who try to show off that they are very great rationalists and that they have a right to pass any remark they like about Christ.

I was reading the newspapers today, I was surprised where they are all saying one by one that, “I reject this part of Christ that He was born with Immaculate Conception. I reject that He was resurrected. I reject this and I reject that.”

Who are you? Because you can write, because you have a flair, how can you say such things? Just without finding out. You are a scholar, maybe you are very well read, maybe that you think you are capable of saying whatever you like about any subject, but the subject of spirituality cannot be dealt by people who are not even Self Realised.

Because it’s a very divine life, it’s a very different life.

It’s an area where your mind cannot enter. It is beyond the mind. And so the poets or artists, all of them who have worked on Christ’s life and have tried to say things about him, mostly were realised souls and, if they were not, they could not do any justice to His life.............

As a human being, Christ came. He came as a human being, but he was not a human being. He was divine. Absolutely, He was nothing but Omkara. That’s why He could walk on the water.

There was nothing materialistic in Him, you can say, no matter in Him. If there was any matter, He could not have walked on the water. But if people start discarding all these facts, about His birth, about His walking on the water and all that, then what is left of Christ, I can’t understand..........

In those days of Christ, there were no aeroplanes, there were no cars, nothing. But He went from places to places and talked to them about spiritual life. The people were not yet evolved. They were not mature enough. So He could not give them realisation, but He talked about dharmic life. He went to the extreme of the ten commandments, that He said not only that you should not do adultery, but you should not even have adulterous eyes...........

Other incarnations who came on this Earth, they had to do many things, like Shri Krishna had to go in the war of Mahabharata, Rama had to go in the jungle to deal with people, same with Christ, we can say, that He did go to all these places, but He never behaved like a human being.

Others did. Shri Rama cried a lot, wept a lot for His wife. Then Shri Krishna married so many times because they were His powers so He married them.

So, though they were incarnations, they had to very much do the things which human beings do. Christ was never married. He never wept, as far as we know, except when He was praying to His Father. He just asked that, “If You could remove this cup from my mouth I’ll be very happy”.

So it’s shown in His character that He came on this Earth as a divine Personality, lived as a divine Personality and died as a divine Personality. ......

Christ accepted His resurrection as a natural thing because He knew all about it and that He didn’t have to change, He didn’t have to transform Himself. He was the same as He was because He did not need any resurrection. He just tried to show in His life that we, human beings can have our realisation and we can be resurrected.

His message is not the cross but the resurrection and this resurrection, if you understand, then one can understand also one more thing, that we are now resurrected from ordinary human beings to the divine level........

He had nothing to do with Mary Magdalene, but when people started stoning her, He went and stood before her and He said, “Those who have not committed any sin, can throw stone at her.” See this courage, this confidence was in Him because He was a divine Personality,

如何對付負面力量

*** 如何對付負面力量 ***



觀眾問：有什麼最簡單的方法？可以用來對付來自週遭的人的負面力量。


Shri Mataji 答：首先最重要的是獲得你的自覺，一旦得到自覺後，(當你碰到此情況)，你試著保持在無思慮的狀態，假如你(腦中)想到那個人，或假如這(相關的)思緒一直進來，你只要說："我原諒，我原諒"，這是對付此(思緒)最簡單的口訣(mantra)。所以進入無思慮的狀態是第一個方法。
再來，你也可以(用右手食指)將他的名字寫在你的(左)手掌，然後用右手的手指繞著左手掌(順時針)轉三圈，那麼它們就無法再干擾你。很多困擾都可以用此方法來處理，任何事都可以用此原理來做，我們叫它做"班丹(bandhan)"(註一)，或是"保護(protection)"。你只要(在左手掌)寫下你希望做的事，然後用右手指對它繞三圈，就會成就，因為這力量會經由你的指尖流通(出來)。

在未來的課程，他們還會教你們更多其他的方法。

註一：請也參考另一文章：Bandhan (班丹) (   http://sahajataiwan.blogspot.co.nz/2016/03/bandhan-shri-mataji-bandhan-bandhan.html  )

註二： 江瑞凱摘譯自Shri Mataji 在公開演講之後的後續工作坊(Workshop)的談話1985-03-17. JSM ! 敬請霎哈嘉兄弟姊妹們指正.

what is the easiest way to counteract negativity of other people around you. What’s the easiest way to counteract negativity of other people around you? You see there are many ways by which – first of all you get your realization, all right? Once you’re realized try to keep in thoughtless awareness. When you think of those people, if the thought comes to you, you should say, “I forgive, I forgive,” that’s the mantra for that – one of them in the thought process. But otherwise it can harmful to you – you write down their names in your hands and just move your hand like this – once, twice and thrice – it works. They don’t trouble you any more. So many things will work out with this – you try this principle, it’s very good. Uh..

I mean anything – this is we call as bandhan, we call it as the protection. So you write anything that you want to do, just put your hands like this – it works out, it’s wonderful because the power is flowing through your finger -tips and you can manage it,

需要知道昆達里尼的知識嗎？

*** 需要知道昆達里尼的知識嗎？ ***

觀眾問：人可以不知道昆達里尼(Kundalini)，但又獲得自覺嗎？

Shri Mataji 答：人的心智上不必知道太多(有關昆達里尼)，即可以得到自覺，這是可能的。但是之後你必須告訴他們這是什麼，告訴他們相關的知識會是比較好的。只有極少數的人在得到自覺之後，會不想更進一步去了解，人基本上是會想去了解全部。但是(對於初學者)，你可以一點點慢慢說，不必一來就對他們講全部，你可以先告訴他們這裏有一個方法可以獲得自覺，就如同有人來問我希望獲得光，我就告訴他那裏有個開關，只要按一下開關就會有亮光，我先不必去講太多有關電及燈泡的原理。但是他接著會想知道為何燈泡會產生亮光，這方面的知識會幫助他去創造、散播更多的光。這就是為什麼了解昆達里尼的種種知識是非常重要。
我是可以不告訴你們任何昆達里尼的知識，而(直接)提升你的昆達里尼，但是如此一來你將對此一無所知，也不知道這自覺是如何發生，這就像那些天生自覺的人一樣，他們不知道自己是自覺的靈，然後後來也迷失了。最有名的例子就是達文西(Leonardo da Vinci，或譯達芬奇)，他是一個(生來就)自覺的靈，但是他不知道自己是自覺的靈，所以就迷失了。他(生來)是比一般人有更高的人格特質，但是他迷失了，因為他不知道自己是自覺的靈，很多自覺的靈都是如此迷失了。

觀眾再問：假如你的昆達里尼被喚醒、升起來了，你又如何會再迷失呢？

Shri Mataji答：因為你仍不是一個完全發展好、成熟的人，當你處在那個不成熟狀態時，這是可能的。當昆達里尼(最初)升起來時，由於(輪穴)阻塞很多，所以它只升起一點點，最初的情況就是如此，只有當你達到完全無疑惑的靜觀(Nirvikalpa samadhi，或叫doubtless awareness )的階段，才算是完全的自覺，這是一個更高的狀態。
在初步階段，上來的昆達里尼只有一絲絲、很少的部分，因為人們有自我(ego)、非我(superego，或譯超我)及種種問題，所以他們會迷失。所以(你們)是要小心！

Can anyone [UNCLEAR] ? Can anyone be realized without knowing about Kundalini? About mentally need not know much, it can be realized, of course you can be. But, then you have to tell them what it is, this thing is better to do that way. But there will be very few who will accept such a situation because they want to know about everything. But they need not know all that, you can little bit say, tell them that there is a way of getting realization and then it’s like this that when you come to Me, you want to have the lights, I’ll say all right, go there’s a switch you put on and you put on the switch, you get the lights without telling about it. But you would like to know how this light is done and then that helps you to create other lights. That’s why, it is important to know about Kundalini. I would, I can do it without telling you anything about Kundalini, I can raise your Kundalini but you would not know anything about and you would not know what it is It has happened with many who were born realized – they did not know they were realized souls and they got lost.

Like I would say, greatest example, Leonardo da Vinci. Leonardo da Vinci was a realized soul and he got lost because he didn’t know he was a realized soul, he was a higher personality than others, he got lost. So many got lost like that. Excuse me, if your Kundalini was arisen and that happened to be lost, I mean, you have it and it happened to be lost How can you get lost if the Kundalini has been awakened? It is, because, you see, it is, you’re not yet fully developed matured person. When you are in an immature state it does happen. Kundalini is, when it rises, you’ll be surprised, in some people it is just a wee bit, just like a hair, just comes up a little bit because it’s so difficult, you see, the passage is so blocked so a little bit comes up. This is what it is. It is, a complete realization takes place only when you are Nirvikalpa samadhi – – that’s a higher state. So in the beginning it’s just a little wee bit opens up and one percent people do get lost, they do, because they have egos, they have superegos or all kinds of things – they do get lost – so be careful.

昆達里尼(靈量)的特質

*** 昆達里尼(靈量)的特質 ***

這個在你内裏的力量叫做"昆達里尼"(Kundalini)，它是一個純潔的願望(pure desire)，不止如此，它也是一個想要去潔淨的願望(purification desire)。它擁有淨化的大能(power)，這是一個巨大的力量，而且這個昆達里尼會思考(thinks)、組織(organizes)，能知道(knows)(事情)、能恊調(co-ordinates)、能給予祝福(blesses)，而且它最終也會引導(guides)(你)。你必須了解昆達里尼是(最)純淨的型態，這表示她是完全抽離、無執(detached)，任何有所執著牽掛的東西或想法就不是純淨的，任何會腐敗變壞的東西都不是純淨的。我們說黄金是純淨的，因為黄金不會生銹沾污而失去光澤，這是黄金的特質，(昆達里尼即是如此)，昆達里尼是完全無瑕的(immaculate)，它不能被破壞或汚染，但是她只可能因内在的破裂而變得虚弱(weak)。

它有一個去潔淨外物的特質，可以說是像一個能淨化外物的東西。打個比喻，就像肥皂一樣，你把肥皂塗抹到那裏，它就會潔淨那裏。當昆達里尼走到任何部位，它就會清潔那裏，而且它也會滋養那裏。因為它會思考，所以它知道如何來滋養你、應滋養到什麼地步、應尋何路逕來進行、要做到什麼程度，或要停止等等。但它的思考並不是語言式的，它並不說什麼，當它經過輪穴時，它會產生一個聲音，這是一個非碰撞的聲音，這些聲音被(以前)偉大的聖人聽到並記錄下來，而用在梵文的語言語音中，這就是為什麼梵語是最純粹的語言。

Now this Kundalini, the force within you, as is said, is pure desire. It’s not only pure desire but it is a purification desire. It has a power to purify – tremendous power it is. And this Kundalini thinks, organizes, knows, co-ordinates, blesses and ultimately guides. So to go beyond the cause we must understand that this Kundalini is the pure form. That means it is detached. Anything that gets attached is not pure. Anything that gets spoilt is not pure. What we say gold is pure because it is untarnishable – untarnishable, that’s the quality of gold.

So it is immaculate. It cannot be ruined, spoiled by anything except that there could be khand, as they call it, could be broken in between and thus weak. So now, something that has a purifying quality like a purifying agent, say, take a simple thing like soap. So the soap, wherever you apply, will clean. Kundalini wherever it will go it will clean, it will nourish. This is one quality that we must understand that it is not tarnishable, it cannot be spoiled, it cannot be ruined, moreover it cleanses, it nourishes but because it thinks, it knows how to nourish you up to what point how to go, how far to go or it stops. But thinking is not vocal, it doesn’t say anything but when it goes round these chakras it makes a sound. And these sounds are made because the movement of Kundalini through these chakras creates a non- percussion sound pass through these creating sounds and these sounds are then jotted down or heard by great saints and used in the phonetic language of Sanskrit. That’s why Sanskrit is supposed to be the purest language.
