影響心智的五種因素 Five Factors That Influence The Mind
有五種因素會影響心智：場所、時間、食物、過去的印象、交往的人與行動。
你所處的每個場所對於心智都會有不同的影響。即使是在家中，你也知道，在不同的房間中，你的感覺是不同的。一個一直有人歌唱、吟頌與靜坐的的場所對心智有不同的影響。假設你喜愛某個特定的地方，你也可能發現，沒過多久你對那地方的就感覺不同了。
時間也是一個因素。一天與一年當中，不同的時段對於心智會有不同的影響。
你所吃的各種食物對你會有幾天的影響。
過去的印象──業力──對於心智會有不同的影響。
覺知、警覺性、知識與靜坐全都有助於清除過去的印象。
交往的人與行動或者是與你有關的人或事，同樣會影響你的心智。跟某些同伴在一起時，你的心智想法是一個模樣，跟其他同伴在一起時，你的心智想法又是另一種樣子。
問：我們需要操心這些嗎？
古儒吉：不要有所偏執，只要明白這些因素就好了。
雖然這五種因素影響生命與心智，但要明白本我的力量更強大。當你在知識中茁壯時，你對所有的這些因素將能有所影響。
235 Five Factors That Influence the Mind
Weekly Knowledge #235 Milano 06 Jan 2000 Italy
Place, Time, Food, Past Impressions, and Associations and Actions
The space -the place you are in.
Every place you are in, has a different impact on the mind. Even in your house, you can see that you feel different in different rooms. A place where there there has been singing, chanting and meditation has a different influence on the mind. Suppose you like a particular place; you may find that a little later it will not be the same.
Time is also a factor.
Different times of the day and year have different influences on the mind.
Different types of food that you take influence you for some days.
The past impressions-the Karmas- have a different impact on the mind. Awareness, alertness, knowledge and meditation all help erase the past impressions.
Associations and actions
The people and events you are associated with do influence your mind. Your actions and associations effect your mind. In certain company your mind behaves in one way and with others in a different way.
Question: Should we worry about them?
Answer: No need to be paranoid about it. Just know them!
Though these five factors influence the life and the mind, know that the Self is much more powerful. As you grow in knowledge, you will influence them all.
NEWS FLASH:
1300 people from over 41 countries gathered to celebrate the New Millennium Satsang and Advanced Course at Massa di Carrara, Tuscany, Italy. As the sun set, they gathered on the shore of the Mediterranean with Guruji chanting Om to say goodbye to the passing millennuim. They were uplifted and inspired by a silent mediation at midnight and Satsang with extemporary bhagans in many languages. Satsangs and New Years Advanced Courses were held around the world in over 93 countries to welcome the New Millennium.
On January 6th Guruji spoke on Italian national television as part of the continuing celebration.
The Advanced Course people were so blissed out that the French translator spoke into the Italian earphones for forty minutes and the French had no translation and no one commented!!!
Dog Story:
So there was this man who walked his dog every day for 7 years. On this particular day he goes to walk the dog and the dog misbehaves and runs away from him. The dog runs for about 10 minutes. The man finds him standing under a pole announcing the Milano Satsang. So the man sees him standing there and the dog won't move. This forces him to read the poster. He decides that the dog ran all over because the dog wanted the man to see the poster. The man called his friends and told them to come to the Satsang.
The dog lead the men to the Divine.
"Ever New Happy You!"
