﻿“如果我的注意力不集中，我还能临在吗？⊂↹⊃"Is presence possible for me if I have problems with my attention?
我深感倦怠和消沉⊂↹⊃I'm burnt out and depressed,
我很难去和人们、境况同在”⊂↹⊃and it is very difficult for me to be present with people and situations."
我认出来这是同一个人⊂↹⊃And this is the same person as far as I can see,
他问过我问题⊂↹⊃who somewhere else asks me something like
“我跟着学习你的教导十年了⊂↹⊃"I've been following your teachings for 10 years
我的生活没发生任何改变。”⊂↹⊃and no change has happened in my life."
是同一个人⊂↹⊃The same person.
你说，“我深感倦怠和消沉⊂↹⊃You say "I am burnt out and depressed and
和人们、境况保持同在对我太难了。”⊂↹⊃it's very difficult for me to be present with people and situations."
其中有一件事不是一个助益，而是一个阻碍⊂↹⊃One thing, that is not a help but a hindrance is
那就是“我感到倦怠”这个想法⊂↹⊃the thought "I am burned out."
你需要那个想法吗？那个想法是真的吗？⊂↹⊃Do you need that thought? Is that actually true?

即便是“我感到消沉”这个想法⊂↹⊃Even the thought "I'm depressed."
这些都是出现在你头脑中的概念⊂↹⊃Again, these are concepts that arise in your mind.
你认同它们⊂↹⊃You identify with them.
你已经相信了⊂↹⊃And you already you believe,
“如果我深感倦怠，我什么也做不了⊂↹⊃"There's nothing I can do, if I'm burnt out,
我怎么能做到临在呢？”⊂↹⊃How can I be present?"
但，那只是你脑子里的一个念头⊂↹⊃But that's just, it's an idea in your head,
你从此刻的事实开始，此刻的事实不是关于事实的一个看法⊂↹⊃you start with the reality of this moment which is not an idea about it.
而是纯粹地面对当下的事实⊂↹⊃But to simply face what is,
同时不在你的头脑中携带某种身份认同⊂↹⊃without carrying some identity in your head,
认为你自己是一个倦怠且消沉的人⊂↹⊃that you are a burnt out and depressed person.
那是一种概念性的身份⊂↹⊃That's a conceptual identity,
它可能会变成一个概念身份⊂↹⊃becomes can become a conceptual identity.
所以，你从事实开始⊂↹⊃So you start with what is,
不是关于事实的一个故事⊂↹⊃not a story about what is,
不是关于你是谁的一个故事⊂↹⊃or a story about who you are.
因为那个故事可能很消极，而且你相信它⊂↹⊃Because the story may be so negative that it that you believe in it,
然后它会变成一扇紧闭的门⊂↹⊃and it becomes a closed door.
你的整个身份感变成一扇紧闭的门⊂↹⊃Your entire sense of identity becomes a closed door.
所以，你从事实开始⊂↹⊃So you begin with what is.
你说⊂↹⊃You say,
你没法和人们、情境同在⊂↹⊃you can't be present with people and situations.

就坐着⊂↹⊃Just be.
看、感知⊂↹⊃And look, perceive.
你可以去做这事⊂↹⊃You can do that.
为此你并不需要最高能量⊂↹⊃You don't need the highest energy level for that.
去感知、看、⊂↹⊃Perceive, look,
感受你内在身体的能量场⊂↹⊃feel the energy field of the your inner body.
任何人都能做这事⊂↹⊃Anybody can do that.
你能感觉到你双手中的某种生命力⊂↹⊃You can feel some life in your hands.
可能开始感觉到一种刺痛感或者温暖⊂↹⊃Starts with a tingling sensation perhaps or warmth,

不是什么大事⊂↹⊃No big deal.
进入当下时刻⊂↹⊃Just entering the present moment,
然后，你觉知到一个事实⊂↹⊃and then you become aware of the fact
那就是你在这里⊂↹⊃that you are here,
你是一个意识存在⊂↹⊃that you are a conscious presence,
感知到你周围的世界⊂↹⊃that perceives the world around you.
嗯，这是一个好起点⊂↹⊃Well, that's that's a good start,
它不是一个充满挑战的情境⊂↹⊃and it's not a challenging situation.
但那是当你未受到挑战时，开始临在的方式⊂↹⊃But that's how you start when you're not being challenged.
所以，下次你和某人聊天时⊂↹⊃And so the next time you talk to someone,
去感觉内在身体⊂↹⊃can feel the inner body.
你已经跟着这个教导学了十年了⊂↹⊃You've been following this teaching for 10 years,
并且你的头脑一直告诉你⊂↹⊃and your mind keeps telling you that
“因为你深感倦怠和消沉，所以你做不到临在”⊂↹⊃"because you're burned out and depressed you can't do it."
这是一个假象⊂↹⊃That's an illusion.

倾听你的朋友对你的诉说⊂↹⊃Then listen to your friend speaking to you.

意味着那开始对你起作用了（即你在慢慢进入临在状态了）⊂↹⊃That means it's beginning to work for you.
也许那已经开始起作用了⊂↹⊃And perhaps it gets started to work already,
但是你的思维不断否认它⊂↹⊃but your mind continuously denied it.
不然的话，你为何已经跟着学了十年了呢？⊂↹⊃Otherwise, why would you carry on for 10 years?
所以，很有可能你已经开始觉醒了⊂↹⊃So it's quite possible that there's already a beginning of an awakening,
但是因为你在倾听你的思维(你认同你的思维)⊂↹⊃but because you're listening to your mind.
思维在否认觉醒⊂↹⊃It's denying it.
所以，我只是想给你指出那个对的方向⊂↹⊃So, I just wanted to point you in the right direction here.
我相信我会再次收到你的来信⊂↹⊃I'm sure I will hear from you again,
然后你告诉我事情发展地怎么样了⊂↹⊃and you let me know how it goes.
这个思维制造的自我感⊂↹⊃this mind-made sense of self is also
