中英对照全文

With all the subject we had discussed so far, tonight we are discussing the most important correct subject and that is 'love is my last chance.' Why I said that love is my last chance? Because that's why how, human karma got the body. Human karma did not get the body and the environments of the body and the parents and the relatives and the longitude and latitude where you were born to hassle your life all the way. You hassle life and by profession you have become a hassler, that's not human. Human life when has no love at heart and no affection in head, is the life of a hassler, it's a life of pain, disgrace, unfulfillment, doubt, questions, it has no integrity, no dignity, with all the wealth of the world, it has no peace.

到目前为止我们讨论过的所有主题里,今晚我们要讨论最重要的、最正确的主题,那就是「爱是我最后的机会」。为什么我说爱是我最后的机会?因为人类的业力就是因此才得到身体的。人类的业力得到身体、得到身体的环境、得到父母、亲属,得到你出生地的经度和纬度,并不是为了折腾你一辈子的生活。是你自己折腾生活,还靠这行当成了个折腾的人,那就不是人了。人的一生,如果心里没有爱、头脑里没有情感,那就是一个折腾者的一生,是痛苦、羞辱、不满足、怀疑、质问的一生,它没有正直,没有尊严,哪怕拥有全世界的财富,也没有安宁。

So spirituality as it is, examined in the light of today, it's kind of a showpiece. Spirituality is a very dignified discipline. Spirituality is a discipline of your own soul, your own consciousness, your own intuition. Spirituality is a strength, religion is a reality, religion is not a, you know couple things and you say couple things and then you do also couple things, that's all it is. That's not true. It's just like a half cooked food, neither it is tasty nor it is original, and that's what we do in life. But that's not and that's why in our life there is a problem. Love is my last chance in life in the sense that I have to love, first of all my own consciousness, I have to love my own character, I have to love my own characteristics, I have to love my own dignity, I have to love my own dimension, there are so many things, I am supposed to love for myself before even I say one word, I want to love you. I understand that when you are young, you want a soulmate or you want a friend or a relative or a lover and or a husband or there are so many things going on in this society. It doesn't give you anything because incomplete is relating to incomplete. You should try to understand something very simple logic of it, incomplete human is helping the other incomplete. It means I have a broken leg and I am trying to help a person who has a broken arm. So that does not mean that I am not helping and that does not mean other person is not getting help and this kind of living and this kind of religion and this kind of situation doesn't make sense.

所以灵性这东西,放到今天的光下来检视,有点像件摆设。灵性是一门极有尊严的纪律。灵性是你自己灵魂的纪律,是你自己意识的纪律,是你自己直觉的纪律。灵性是一种力量,宗教是一种现实,宗教不是——你知道,说几句、念几句,然后再做几下,那就完了。不是那样的。那就像半生不熟的食物,既不好吃,也不是本味,而我们在生活里就是这么干的。但那不是,也正因为如此,我们的生活里才有问题。爱是我此生最后的机会,意思是:我必须去爱,首先是我自己的意识,我必须爱自己的品格,我必须爱自己的特质,我必须爱自己的尊严,我必须爱自己的维度,有太多太多东西,在我还没说出一句「我想爱你」之前,我本就该先为自己去爱。我明白,当你年轻的时候,你想要一个灵魂伴侣,或者想要一个朋友、一个亲人、一个爱人,或者一个丈夫,这个社会里有太多这样的事。它什么都给不了你,因为不完整的东西在和另一个不完整的东西发生关系。你该试着弄懂一个非常简单的逻辑,不完整的人在帮另一个不完整的人。意思是我断了一条腿,还在试着帮一个断了胳膊的人。所以这并不意味着我没在帮,也不意味着另一个人没得到帮助,而这种活法、这种宗教、这种境况,都说不通。

Now, love what you understand is very different than what love is. You have sensual love, you have sexual love, you have personal love, you have conditional love, you have unconditional love and you can call the love with anything. Actually love is a self-acknowledgement. When I love myself, I can be so rich, I can love everybody. The depending love, that because you love me, you depend on me and I love you, I depend on you and because I expect, in business now I expect this, you expect this, this is not, that is not love, that is called, what you can call it? Softening the way. Meaning something different, doing something different. Love is the most abused one word in the human vocabulary. Because first condition of love is when you are in love or you love somebody you have no question to be asked. Where there is a question there is no love. Where there is a condition, there is no love. Where there is a expectation, there is no love. Where there is jurisdiction, there is no love. Where there is a territory, there is no love. Which can be defined and have dimension has no love.

现在,你所理解的爱,和爱本身,是不一样的。你有利欲的爱,有性的爱,有个人的爱,有有条件的爱,有无条件的爱,你可以把爱叫成任何东西。其实爱是一种自我认可。当我爱我自己,我就能那么丰盛,我就能爱每一个人。那种依赖的爱,是因为你爱我,你就依赖我,我爱你,我就依赖你,而且因为我有所期待,在交易里,现在我期待这个,你期待那个,这不是,那不是爱,那叫做,你能叫它什么?软化那条路。意思是另有所图,做的是另一回事。爱是人类语汇里被滥用得最厉害的一个词。因为爱的第一个条件就是,当你处在爱里,或者你爱某个人,你没有任何问题要问。有问题的地方,就没有爱。有条件的地方,就没有爱。有期待的地方,就没有爱。有管辖范围的地方,就没有爱。有地盘的地方,就没有爱。可以被定义、可以有尺寸的,都没有爱。

So basically, technologically, somebody asked me a question today, "How is my wife doing?"

所以基本上,从技术上讲,今天有人问我一个问题:「我妻子过得怎么样?」

I said, "Oh you are talking about my daughter?"

我说:「哦,你是在说我的女儿?」

He said, "Yeah."

他说:「是啊。」

I said, "I forget she is your wife."

我说:「我都忘了她是你妻子。」

"Why?"

「为什么?」
