第十一誡 The Eleventh Commandment
#092 1997/3/13 印度 新德里
當一個人獨處而內心卻紛雜，彷彿處於群眾中，那是無明。啟明則是處於群眾中而怡然自處。與群眾感覺是一體則是智慧的象徵。
生命的知識帶出信心，對死亡的瞭解使你無所畏懼、並穩定泰然。
什麼是恐懼？就是害怕分離。
有些人知道如何在群眾中慶祝。有些人只能在寧靜中單獨慶祝。
我告訴你們兩者都做。
當你獨處和與人在一起時都慶祝。慶祝靜謐也慶祝吵雜。慶祝生命也慶祝死亡。
此即第十一誡。
092 THE ELEVENTH COMMANDMENT
Weekly Knowledge #92 New Delhi 13 Mar 1997 India
Being in a crowd when you are alone is ignorance. Enlightenment is being alone in a crowd. Feeling of oneness in a crowd is a sign of wisdom. Knowledge of life brings confidence, and knowledge of death makes you fearless and centered.
What is fear? Fear of separatedness.
Celebrate while you are alone and when you are with people. Some know to celebrate when they are in a crowd. Some can only rejoice alone in silence. I tell you to do both.
Celebrate the silence and Celebrate the noise.
Celebrate the life and Celebrate the death.
This is the Eleventh Commandment!
Jai Guru Dev
NEWS FLASH:
This week has been full of events.
The Divine Energy in the Ashram was at its peak on Shivaratri; Gurujis dance left everyone spellbound. Guruji went on to Ahmedabad, where over 8000 people packed a stadium for a delirious satsang.
The next day, one of The Art of Living Teachers passed away : Guruji embraced the bereaved family and in minutes lifted the gloom. This experience brought a depth and dispassion in the entire group, and they celebrated singing Jai Jai Radha Ramana Hari Bol . In death, as in life, Guruji was right there at the helm of everything. The entire family will be joining Guruji in Rishikesh.
Then on to Delhi, the spiritually saturated capital of India, where billboards were seen at every major intersection. The thrilling Satsang and meditation captivated the thousands present.
