打開與關閉窗戶 Window Shutters
114 1997/08/13 瑞典 斯德哥爾摩
你週遭一切所帶給你的知識,看你清醒的程度而定。假如你不清醒,則甚至是最寶貴的知識亦毫無意義。
(突然間外面發出很吵雜的聲音,基朗前去關上窗子。)
覺知有賴於你開啟與關閉窗戶的能力。當暴風雨來臨時你必需關窗戶,否則會淋濕。當室內既熱又令人窒息時,你必需打開窗戶。
你的五官覺知彷彿窗戶。當你有能力隨著意願打開與關閉窗戶時,你就是自由的。
假如窗戶無法隨意關上或打開時,你就是受束縛的。
照料窗戶的開關這點即是靈修或sadhana。
114 Window Shutters
Weekly Knowledge #114 Stockholm 13 Aug 1997 Sweden
To the degree that you are awake, everything around you brings you knowledge. If you are not awake, then even the most precious knowledge does not make any sense.
(Suddenly there was much noise from outside and Kiran went to shut the window.)
Sri Sri: Awareness depends upon your ability to shut your windows. When there is a storm you need to shut your windows, otherwise you will get wet.
When it is hot and suffocating inside, you need to open your windows. Your senses are like the windows. When you have the ability to open and shut your windows at your will then you are free and you are awake. When your windows cannot be shut or opened, you are bound.
Attending to that is sadhana or practice.
NEWS FLASH
There was extensive media coverage about Guruji both in Copenhagen and in Stockholm. In Copenhagen, Guruji and the evening Satsang were featured in "Good Morning Denmark", a TV program which "wakes up" Danish people in the morning.
In Stockholm, far more people came for the evening program than could be accommodated. Guruji first went and greeted those who could not get into the auditorium. The last comes first!
