對聲音的信心 Sound Faith
225 1999/10/28 印度 班格羅靜心所
對聲音有信心,進而對寧靜有信心。當聲音是悅耳時,對聲音有信心;而當聲音不悅耳時,則對寧靜有信心。
當有人說了一些不好聽的話時,你馬上就相信了,並且心智變得愈來愈受困擾。相信不悅耳的聲音,會在心智中創造出更多的騷動。在這種情況之下,把你的信心轉向寧靜。
對聲音有信心,就像對唱頌特音有信心一樣。
一般人對閒聊及閒言閒語似乎比對唱頌及知識還要來得有信心。要對知識及唱頌有信心,要對寧靜有信心。
225 SOUND FAITH
Weekly Knowledge #225 Bangalore Ashram 28 Oct 1999 India
Have faith in the sound and move on to have faith in the silence. Have faith in sound when it is pleasant and have faith in the silence when the sound is unpleasant.
When some one says something bad you immediately believe it and the mind becomes more disturbed. Believing in an unpleasant sound creates more turmoil in the mind. In that situation shift your faith to silence.
Have faith in the sound, like the chanting of mantras.
People seem to have more faith in chatting and gossip rather than chanting and knowledge. Have faith in the knowledge and chanting and have faith in silence.
Anecdote:
On the day of the full moon, Sri Sri visited the ancient temple of Kollur where there was an elaborately decorated chariot of the goddess being pulled around the temple. Explaining its significance, Sri Sri said that each one of us is like a chariot carrying the power of God within. We are the real chariot of the Divine. Our body is the chariot and the soul is the deity which is being pulled around the world to purify.
NEWS FLASH
Steady rains could not stop over 8000 people in Mangalore and over 1000 people in Mysore from singing, dancing and soaking in Sri Sri's physical presence.
Jai Guru Dev
