愛的智慧 love’s Wisdom
#191 1999/2/12印度 班格羅靜心所
在每個呼吸中我吟唱著我愛人的名
我的愛人無可挑剔完美無缺
然而墜入愛河使我聲名盡失
當愛是如此深摯時，你會承擔起任何誤會的全部責任。表面上你或許會片刻表現出沮喪，然而當內心沒有那種感受時，你會達到完美的瞭解。你處於一種一切問題與差異完全消失獨留愛的光芒四射的狀態。
通常我們執著於差異，因為我們己經見不到自己。我們以愛為名企圖去操緃與控制對方。這是極為自然的事，因為當我們愛著某人時，我們希望他們是完美的。
從山頂望著地面，我們永遠見不到坑洞。自飛機上望下來，地球顯得非常的平順。同樣地，從一個較高的意識狀態來看，你見不到別人的缺失。然而走到地面，你總會看到坑洞。而假如你想要填平坑洞，你就必須得看見它們。你無法在空中建築樓閣。假如你要耕種的話，你就得檢視坑洞，填平坑洞，並除掉亂石。
因此當愛上某人時，你就會發現到他們的一切缺陷，然而挑剔缺陷會摧毀愛。我們不去填平那些缺陷反而閃避脫逃。當你愛著某人且看到他們的缺點時，跟他們在一起並幫助他填平那些缺陷。這是智慧。
191 LOVE'S WISDOM
Weekly Knowledge #191 Bangalore Ashram 12 Feb 1999 India
I chant the name of my beloved in every breath. The beloved is faultless - perfect. But being in love I have lost my reputation.When there is so much love, you take total responsibility for any misunderstanding. You may express dismay for a moment on the surface. But when you do not feel that in your heart, you arrive at a perfect understanding. You are in a state where all problems and differences slide away and only love shines through.
Usually we get stuck in our differences, because we have lost sight of ourselves. In the name of love we try to manipulate and control the other person. This is natural that when we love somebody, we want them to be perfect.
You can never see the pits in the ground from the top of a hill. From a plane the earth looks so smooth. So also from a state of elevated consciousness, you do not see the pitfalls in others. But if you come to the ground you always see the holes. And when you want to fill the holes, you have to see them. You cannot build a home being airborne. You cannot till the land without looking at the pits, filling them, removing the pebbles....
That is why when you love somebody you find all the faults in them. But finding faults destroys love. Instead of filling the pits we run away from them. When you love somebody and see their faults, stay with them and help them fill the pits. This is wisdom.
NEWS FLASH !
The Shankaracharya of Elenir Mutt (Ashram) enthralled the Satsangees with his mellifluous rendering of bhajans. After our devotees started singing, Swamiji was so inspired that he forgot the time, grabbed the mike and started singing again.
It has been proposed to open an international school of Journalism in the ashram to give a positive effect to journalism. Those who are experienced in this field are invited to provide inputs.
