忠誠 Loyalty
#165 1998/8/4 德國靜心所
忠誠是成熟與完整的心智運作的方式。忠誠意謂著未分裂而完整的意識，並且顯示出心智的富足。當心智不完整時，它是焦燥不安的、不忠誠的，而且是投機取巧的。
不忠誠源自於機會主義。機會主義是對於自己命運的短視。整合或完整對於健康是必要的。分裂的心智將逐漸導向精神分裂與其他身心的失調。忠誠是真實的力量，並且終會得到大自然的支持。
恐懼與野心阻礙忠誠。在物質的層面與在精神的層面上，忠誠都是必要的。不管要摧毀、創立或是要維繫任何機構、團體或是社會，忠誠都是重要的。
忠誠意謂著相信承諾的持續性。尊敬承諾是忠誠。忠誠使你超越了好壞的二元性。
責任、奉獻與承諾是忠誠的肢體(limbs)
忠誠的心智是種「肯定」的心智(“yes”—mind )。發問的目的在於得到答案，一切答案的目的在創造「肯定」。
「肯定」是承諾知識。「肯定」的心智是種安詳、整合與喜悅的心智。「否定」的心智(“no”—mind )是騷動的、懷疑的與憂傷的心智。忠誠以「肯定」的心智開始，以「否定」的心智開始毀敗。
165 LOYALTY
Weekly Knowledge #165 Europeon Akademie,Bad Antogast 04 Aug 1998 Germany
Loyalty is the way in which a mature and integrated mind behaves. Loyalty indicates undivided wholeness of consciousness and shows richness of the mind. When the mind is not integrated it is feverish, disloyal and opportunistic. Disloyalty comes out of opportunism. Opportunism is short-sightedness of one's destiny. Integrity or wholeness is essential to be healthy. A divided mind will gradually lead to schizophrenia and other physical and mental disorders. Loyalty is a real strength and will have the support of nature in the long run.
Fear and ambitions are impediments to loyalty. Loyalty is needed both in the material and spiritual plane. Either to destroy, create or maintain any institution, group or society, loyalty is essential.
Loyalty means believing in the continuity of commitment. Honouring commitment is loyalty. It takes you beyond the duality of craving and aversion.
Responsibility, dedication, commitment are the limbs of loyalty.
A loyal mind is a 'yes'-mind. The purpose of asking questions is to get an answer. The purpose of all answers is to create a ...'yes'.... 'Yes' is an acknowledgement of knowledge. The 'yes'-mind is a quiet, holistic and joyful mind. The 'no'-mind is a agitated, doubting and miserable mind. Loyalty begins with a 'yes'-mind and starts to perish with a 'no'-mind.
