First basically religion is not a western thing. Even Christianity is a eastern religion adapted by western. And couple thousand years this universe was nothing but swamps (?) So civilization is not very old. And today the tragedy of time is taking the highest toll. On average eighty percent of the national income is held in frustration. It doesn’t make us happy. Eighty percent of the national income, I am talking something, which is a fact. So what we are talking about is whatever we have what makes us happy, eight percent is we are unhappy. Why? We have a tremendous technology of machine, reproductivity (?) but it does not match up with equal technology of mind.

首先,宗教本质上不是西方的东西。就连基督教也是东方宗教,被西方人改编了。几千年前,这个宇宙不过是一片沼泽(?)所以文明并不古老。而今天,时代的悲剧正在造成最大的伤亡。平均而言,国民收入的百分之八十都耗在挫败里。它并不能让我们快乐。国民收入的百分之八十——我说的是事实。所以我们谈的是,无论我们拥有什么,能让我们快乐的部分有多少,百分之八是我们不快乐。为什么?我们有强大的机器技术、再生产能力(?),但它却匹配不上同等的心智技术。

Americans are turning to meditation. They are willing to buy it without a leech. That’s the American way! They think their dollars can buy everything including meditation so they got it, somebody came, he thought the need, he sold the product, product got well sold, everybody practicing without knowing what happened.

美国人正在转向冥想。他们愿意花钱买,不用水蛭。这就是美国人的方式!他们以为美元能买到一切,包括冥想,所以他们得到了,有人来了,他看到了需求,他卖了产品,产品卖得很好,每个人都在练,却不知道发生了什么。

so they got it, somebody came, he thought the need, he sold the product, product got well sold, everybody practicing without knowing what happened.

所以他们得到了,有人来了,他看到了需求,他卖了产品,产品卖得很好,每个人都在练,却不知道发生了什么。

Now after years of this meditation practices they are realizing what they enjoyed in the beginning was beautiful but now it is not so. Meditation cannot be Americanized. It cannot be taught through television. It is a scientific collaborated well-tested, theory and practices, which has been practiced for thousands of years and it works with the most effective part of the human, the mind. Therefore people who think they can just close their eyes for twenty minutes and can chant a one mantra and then think they are meditating, it is very simple phenomenon, it's good for a while. It sounds good; psychologically it is nice and gives a good feeling.

如今,练了这么多年冥想之后,他们意识到,一开始享受的东西很美,但现在不是那样了。冥想不能被美国化。它没法通过电视来教。它是一门科学,经过协作、充分验证的理论与实践,已经实践了几千年,它作用于人最有效的部分——心智。因此,那些以为只要闭上眼睛二十分钟、唱诵一个曼陀罗,就以为自己在冥想的人——这是很简单的现象,一时之间还不错。听起来不错;心理上很舒服,感觉很好。

But in the long run you will find that you are just stuck with a kind of a kindergarten program, neither we are this way nor we are that way.

但从长远来看,你会发现,你只是卡在一种幼儿园式的课程里,既不是这样,也不是那样。

That’s enough… you are here learning or (?). I don’t like to be exploited, I never came to United States of America to become anything I only wanted you people not run down the tubes, which you are destined not to fail. Because there is a tremendous (?) I have studied, I have studied the Chinese history, I have studied the Indian history, I have studied Egyptian, I have studied the Roman Empire situation and I have seen, when is a lot of money, then comes perversion. And perversion, mind goes berserk, sickness happens, people jump into ocean.

够了……你们在这里是来学习的,还是(?)。我不喜欢被人利用,我从没来美国是为了成为什么人物,我只想让你们这些人不要一路垮掉,而你们注定不会失败。因为有一股巨大的(?)我研究过,我研究过中国历史,我研究过印度历史,我研究过埃及,我研究过罗马帝国的处境,我看到,当钱很多的时候,变态就来了。而变态一来,心智就发狂,疾病就发生,人们就跳进海里。

situation and I have seen, when is a lot of money, then comes perversion. And perversion, mind goes berserk, sickness happens, people jump into ocean.

处境,我看到,当钱很多的时候,变态就来了。而变态一来,心智就发狂,疾病就发生,人们就跳进海里。
