Relax, relax. We have gathered together in this Temple of peace, the image of one man who believed that people can meditate, but he did not explain at length, what meditation can do for us. Meditation is a very foreign word to the western world, something which we don't understand. Meditation is a simple process. When we start living, we start having thoughts and a thousand thought per wink of the eye. Some of the thoughts become our feelings, emotions and desires and some of the thoughts we store in the subconscious and the thoughts which we store in subconscious, some become dormant, some become active. If they are dormant or acting that is tolerable, but some thoughts become totally bewitching thoughts. It is the situation you are in and it is the bewitching thought, it is that contrast which ruins everybody life, nobody is born rich.

放松,放松。我们聚集在这座和平的殿堂里,心里想着一个人,他相信人可以冥想,但他并没有详细解释过,冥想能为我们带来什么。对西方世界来说,冥想是个很陌生的词,是我们不理解的东西。冥想是一个简单的过程。我们一开始生活,就开始有了念头,一眨眼的工夫就有上千个念头。有些念头变成了我们的感受、情绪和欲望,有些念头被我们储存在潜意识里,而那些储存在潜意识里的念头,有些变得休眠,有些变得活跃。如果它们是休眠的或活跃的,那还能忍受,但有些念头会变成完全迷惑人的念头。你身处的情境,加上那个迷惑人的念头,正是这种反差毁掉了每个人的人生,没有人是生来就富有的。

Is there any child born who is with two-hundred-million pesos right with his (?) card? No, you are born naked. Some have born in the poor family and become rich, some have born in rich families have become poor, some started rich and became poor, some started rich and became poor. Life and time changes. Opportunities are different for different people. When we get scared, insecure, we think to secure ourself on the Earth. Earth plays very important part in our life. But out of the five Tattvas, Earth is one Tattva. If we are all for Earth, what about for ether, what about for water, what about for fire, what about for air, look what we have done. Air is polluted, water is polluted, fire has radiation. Even we cook our food now in that little thing, in one minute it heats up without measuring how much radiation it gives to Earth, we call it microwave.

有没有哪个孩子一出生就带着两亿比索,手里还拿着(?)卡?没有,你生来是一丝不挂的。有人生在穷人家后来变富,有人生在富人家后来变穷,有人起点富有后来变穷,有人起点富有后来变穷。生活和时间都在变。机会对不同的人来说是不一样的。当我们感到害怕、没有安全感时,我们就想在这片大地上给自己找个安稳。大地在我们的生命里扮演着很重要的角色。但在五大五大元素(Tattvas)里,大地只是其中一个。如果我们一心只想着大地,那以太呢,水呢,火呢,空气呢,看看我们都做了什么。空气被污染了,水被污染了,火带着辐射。连我们现在做饭都用那个小东西,一分钟就加热好,也不去衡量它给大地带来多少辐射,我们叫它微波炉。

Our life is totally neglecting other four Tattvas, so bad is the condition now, I was in Moscow and they were talking about the condition on which planet Earth is. Condition of the planet Earth is, it is sixty percent polluted and within another hundred years if this rate of pollution continues, we will not exist. Let us take our neighbor Brazil. We are taking away forest from that land, in the name of civilization, net result is, the ratio of the carbon dioxide which this forest takes away from the air is increasing, we have polluted the ocean, the algae which creates the oxygen, that is diminishing, net result is allover the world the weather is changing. These misfortunes are man created, can we change anything? Yes.

我们的生活完全忽略了另外四大五大元素,现在的状况就是这么糟,我当时在莫斯科,他们正在谈论地球这颗行星的状况。地球的状况是,它已经被污染了百分之六十,如果这个污染速度再持续一百年,我们将不复存在。就拿我们的邻居巴西来说。我们以文明的名义从那片土地上夺走森林,最终结果是,这些森林从空气中吸收的二氧化碳比例在增加,我们污染了海洋,制造氧气的藻类正在减少,最终结果是全世界的天气都在改变。这些不幸都是人造出来的,我们能改变什么吗?能。

There are two ways to change things. Either you are forced to change or you have the intuition to change, that is what happens to the Earth, the same thing happens to your life. Either you will be forced to change your life or your lifestyle or you will intuitively wise enough to change. Person who meditates, knows when to change, how much to change, why to change, what for to change. Human has no defense mechanism. God didn't give you horn, hoofs, a skin which cannot be penetrated, you have been defending yourself now with the atomic weapons, but are you defended, have your insanity come down to zero. Have you and your family is happy, is your commitment and character very normal, as a human being you are worried or not. Are you secure, are you psychotic, neurotic or you are very wise and serene. These are the questions.

改变事情有两种方式。要么你被迫改变,要么你有直觉去改变,地球就是这样,你的生活也是这样。要么你会被迫改变你的生活或你的生活方式,要么你会凭直觉聪明地知道该改变。冥想的人知道什么时候该改变,该改变多少,为什么改变,为了什么而改变。人类没有防御机制。神没有给你犄角、蹄子,也没有给你一层无法穿透的皮,你现在一直用原子武器保护自己,可你被保护住了吗,你的疯狂降到零了吗。你和你的家人幸福吗,你的承诺和品格很中正吗,作为一个人你有没有忧虑。你安全吗,你是精神病、神经症,还是你很有智慧、很宁静。这些就是问题。

There are eight major religions and over certain thousands of them if you just take all the groups, has religion served us. It tells us what to do, do we have the strength to do it. Look at this Church. It is for those who come here in peace and meditate, why meditation is essential? Meditation is not essential because, you can become better, no you are better. You are not born in sin and you are not to live in guilt. You are born in the image of God and you have to live in the will of God, that is the truth which every religion twisted, because if a religion tell you, you are born in the image of God and you have to live in the will of God, then the fear is you don't need the religion. You may not need the religion, but you need the reality, your own reality. By meditating we take our garbage out. It is our own strength; it doesn't give us something extra.

有八大宗教,如果你把所有派别都算上,还有成千上万个,宗教服务过我们吗。它告诉我们要做什么,我们有力量去做吗。看看这座教堂。它是给那些来这里安宁地冥想的人,为什么冥想是必要的?冥想之所以必要,不是因为你能够变得更好,不对,你已经很好。你不是生在罪里,你也不该活在罪咎里。你是照神的形象出生的,你应当活在神的意志里,这是每个宗教都扭曲了的真理,因为如果一个宗教告诉你,你是照神的形象出生的,你应当活在神的意志里,那么可怕的是——你不需要这个宗教了。你可能不需要宗教,但你需要实相,你自己的实相。通过冥想,我们把垃圾倒出去。它是我们自己的力量;它并没有给我们什么额外的东西。

When people counsel each other, they talk to each other, or I have heard spiritual teachers and I have heard great people, they say, "Come to me, I will make you better, I will make you best" and sometime I laugh, what a lie that is, if God who made each one of you, couldn't make you better and best, who am I? But you are so stone headed, you believe it, 'yes, this guy is going to make us better, this guy is going to make best out of it,' because you are lazy, you want somebody to do it for you, and you don't want to do it for yourself. You are willing to pay the wealth, the money and everything, for what? So somebody can give you peace of mind. If you cannot give yourself peace of mind, is somebody stupid to give you peace of mind and one who claims that he has peace of mind, may not even know what is a peace of mind is?

当人们互相劝解、互相交谈时,或者我听灵性老师讲、听那些伟人讲,他们会说:「到我这里来,我会让你变得更好,我会让你变得最好。」有时我会笑,这是多大的谎言啊。如果创造了你们每一个人的神都不能让你变得更好、变得最好,我是谁?可你们就是这么死脑筋,你们还真信:「对,这家伙会让我们变得更好,这家伙会让我们变得最好。」因为你懒,你想让别人替你去做,你不想自己去做。你愿意付出财富、金钱和一切,为了什么?就为了让别人能给你心智的安宁。如果你自己都不能给自己心智的安宁,难道有谁会蠢到给你心智的安宁吗?而那个声称自己拥有心智安宁的人,也许连什么是心智的安宁都不知道。

Each individual is made by God Himself and each individual has a destiny. Destiny is crossed by fate; you can fall in any trap. If you go by the destiny, you will live your life fulfilled. Moment you are not living your life fulfilled, you have crossed the line of destiny and you are under the strength of the powerful fate. Duality, doubt, misery, insecurity, having neurosis, nightmares, some people get so much into it, they become victim to the bewitching thought. We say some ghost live in them. It is no ghost living in us; we become the ghost, because we lose the path of light. We have to grow up to understand, we have come from the Heaven and we must not forget it to go back to it, that's all it takes. You don't need to impure yourself and pollute yourself and pollute yourself, because you see the car, you have the windshield wiper on it, why? In rain you cannot see, that moves the water so that you can see. If it is snowing, that moves the snow away.

每一个人都是神亲手造的,每一个人都有自己的天命。天命会被命运横穿;你可能掉进任何陷阱。如果你顺着天命走,你会活出圆满的人生。一旦你活得不再圆满,你就越过了天命的界线,落到了强大命运的掌控之下。二元对立、怀疑、痛苦、不安全感、神经症、噩梦,有些人陷得太深,成了那迷人念头的牺牲品。我们说他们身上住着鬼。其实不是有鬼住在我们里面;我们变成了鬼,因为我们丢失了光的路。我们必须成长到能够明白:我们来自天堂,我们一定不要忘记回到那里去,仅此而已。你不需要污染自己、玷污自己、再玷污自己,因为你看看汽车,上面有挡风玻璃雨刷,为什么?下雨时你看不清,它把水拨开,好让你能看见。如果下雪,它把雪拨开。
