特殊還是平凡 Special or Ordinary
#064 1996/8/28 挪威 葛林斯塔得
你是特殊……還是平凡的呢？
是什麼使你在道上特殊呢？
(鴉雀無聲)
使你「特殊」的是因為你的認知、覺察力和表現都有進步。
那什麼使你「平凡」呢？……就是你的特殊！（笑聲）
每個人都會自認在某方面是極其特殊的！
你的認知是否有進步呢？你見到隱藏在每個原因背後的原因──神，並且看到在每一個小計畫背後的大計畫。你不會去尋找他人錯誤背後的意圖，你不再是個「懷疑的湯姆士」（doubting Thomas）了。
基朗：誰是「懷疑的湯姆士」？
雪莉：湯姆士他懷疑耶穌啊。
巴奴：但我想他也啟明了！
史蒂芬諾：對呀，但他自己並不怎麼確定！（笑聲）
還未走在道上前，你從來沒有觀照過你的情緒。但現在你觀察到你的情緒、正面的和負面的，愛或憎恨，忿怒或慈悲，痛苦或快樂。你的覺察力已提升。
你的表現也進步了。在每一個人的核心都具備著一切善良的品質，處於不幸和壓力下的人們，無法表達出這些善良的品質，但是你展現了這些偉大的品質。
所以……你是非比……尋常的！
064 SPECIAL? ORDINARY?
Weekly Knowledge #64 Grimstad 28 Aug 1996 Norway
Are you special or ordinary?
What makes you special on the path? (Everyone is silent) Your perception, observation, and expression have advanced. What makes you ordinary on the path is that you are special! (Laughter) . . . . Because everybody thinks they are very special in some way or another!
Your perception has improved. You see the cause behind every cause, the Divine, and you see the great plan behind every small plan. You don't see the intentions behind others's mistakes and you are not a doubting Thomas.
Kiran: Who was doubting Thomas?
Shirley: Thomas doubted Jesus.
Bhanu: But I think he also got enlightened!
Stefano: Yes, but he was not sure! (Laughter)
Before getting onto the path you never observed your emotions. Now you observe your emotions, positive or negative, love or hatred, anger or compassion, pain or pleasure. Your observation has improved.
Your expression has improved. In the center-core of everyone there are all the good qualities. In the unfortunate and stressed ones it has not found an expression, but you have given an expression to these great qualities.
And soooo . . . . . you are extra . . . ordinary!
NEWS FLASH
The hot media topic of the week on the Guernsey Islands was the Art of Living and Guruji's long awaited visit. Jean and Renwick invited the parliamentarians and health care professionals for a meeting with Guruji after the most lively talk.
On one of the earlier tours when Guruji asked on what topics to speak, amidst all different topics, a gentleman suggested "used cars." Can you believe this! Guruji spoke about used cars the whole evening and compared them with our body and mind. No one can catch the Guru!
Then on to Norway for the extraordinary residential week-long basic course with 150 people, historic for Scandinavia . . . . WOW! (Can you say all that in one breath?) (We all got a little off-track figuring out the difference between WOW and WOOW. Here is a riddle for you: "The nose is in between WOW and WOOW" . . . . Find it out! (Laughter!))
Jai Guru Dev
