第 322 课:I Think, Therefore I Am Here 冥想──迈向身心合一的空灵境界-2
Close your eyes and start taking slow breaths. Focus on the air moving in and out of your body. 闭上你的眼睛并缓慢呼吸。集中注意空气进出你的身体。
If your mind starts to wander and you begin to think about something else, refocus your attention on your breathing. 如果你开始胡思乱想了,就把注意力重新集中在你的呼吸上。
Meditation has little to do with escaping problems or thinking about nothing. 冥想并不是逃避问题或什么都不想。
Instead, the breathing techniques help you calm down and think more clearly about your feelings. 相反的,掌握呼吸的技巧能帮助你平静下来,让你更清楚地思考自己的感觉。
The issues on your mind unfold clearly, as if they were in slow motion. 你的心结就像是慢动作似的在你的面前清晰地展开。
This clarity is called "mindfulness”. Being mindful means that you are aware of what you are thinking without becoming caught up in your thoughts. 这种清晰就叫领悟。领悟的意思是你知道你心里所想但不为杂念缠绕。
It takes practice, but with time, that big test will not scare you anymore. 冥想需要练习,不过随着时间的推移,你就不会再畏惧考试了。
You will realize through meditation that fear is just a product of not being mindful. 学会了冥想,你会了解恐惧只是没有集中精神的结果。
