內在的巫師

The Wizard Within

1/19

你心中早已蘊藏著實現願望所需的一切。還記得《綠野仙蹤》裡的巫師嗎?聰明的鐵皮人夢寐以求大腦,溫柔的稻草人渴望一顆心,勇敢的獅子努力爭取勇氣,而小女孩艾莉只想回家。這些角色其實早已擁有他們想要的一切,但若奧茲巫師直接告訴他們,反而會顯得難以置信,因此他才創造了魔法儀式。

Your heart already has everything you need to know to realize your desires. Do you remember the story about the Wizard of Oz? The clever Tin Man dreams of having a brain, the kind Scarecrow longs for a heart, the brave lion strives to acquire courage and the girl Ellie wants to go home. All the characters already have the things they desire but if Goodwin the Wizard tells them so it will sound too implausible to be true and so he creates a magic ritual instead.

實際上,鐵皮人、稻草人與獅子只需給自己一個允許,接受其內在靈魂中早已存在的品質即可;而小女孩艾莉的情況則更為複雜,她必須以全然的「擁有」意志來表達回家的決心。魔法儀式幫助她加強了信念,隨後意圖之風將她帶回了家。

In reality, all that was needed was for the Tin Man, Scarecrow and Lion to give themselves permission to have the qualities they so desired because they already existed in their soul. For the girl Ellie the task was a little more complicated. She had to express total will in the will to have in order to return home. The magic ritual helped her to strengthen her faith and then the wind of intention carried her home.

正如我們之前所說,並非所有與外在意圖 (Outer intention) 相關的事物都能納入心智概念的框架,那正是心智所主導的領域。擺錘 (Pendulum) 也在這一過程中發揮作用,因為如果個體能夠完全自由地掌控外在意圖 (Outer intention),將嚴重損害擺錘 (Pendulum) 的利益。

As we have already said, not everything that is connected with outer intention fits into the framework of the concepts of the mind. The mind is responsible for this scenario. Pendulums also assisted in the process because freedom and individual control over outer intention would have severely undermined the pendulum’s interests.


4/19

擺錘 (Pendulum) 的怪獸只從那些毫不出眾、甘於成為齒輪般小人物的人身上獲益;個體潛能的實現對於擺錘 (Pendulum) 來說是一大威脅,因為一個自由的人會為自己的成長和繁榮而奮鬥。因此,從幼年起,我們便被灌輸各種約束性的標準與規則,這些規則巧妙地將我們塑造成順從的擁護者。

The pendulum monsters only benefit from people who do not stand out in any way and are content to work for them as a cog in a wheel. The realization of individual potential is a pernicious threat to the pendulum because an individual who is free works for their own development and prosperity. Hence from childhood we are instilled with conditioned standards and rules which conveniently mould us into obedient adherents.


5/19

一方面,社會需要教授個體某些規則,讓他們能夠和諧共處;否則,違反這些規則的人就會變成失敗者或被邊緣化者。而另一方面,社會條件反射卻大幅壓抑了每個人獨特的個性,導致人們通常無法準確表達自己真正的渴望,也難以認識到自己真正的潛能。

On the one hand there is a positive need to teach the individual certain rules that will help them to get along in life, as the people who break these rules become losers or outcasts. On the other hand, social conditioning strongly suppresses a person’s unique individuality and so people generally cannot say what they really want and have no idea of their true capabilities.


6/19

如果你想壓制一個人掌控外在意圖 (Outer intention) 的能力,只需切斷心與心智之間的聯繫即可。歷史上,人們花了大量心力將心與心智分離——心智致力於完善其符號語言,同時逐漸疏遠了心的語言。宗教的擺錘 (Pendulum) 和科學的擺錘 (Pendulum) 都極力將心智引離心的真實本質,而近世工業與資訊技術的發展更徹底斷裂了這種連結。

If you want to suppress a person’s ability to master outer intention, it is enough to break the heart’s connection with the mind. Throughout the history of humanity, huge efforts have been made to divorce the heart from the mind. The mind has worked constantly to perfect its language of symbols at the same time becoming ever less practiced in the language of the heart. Pendulums of religion like pendulums of science have pulled the mind in different directions as far as possible from the true nature of the heart and finally, the development of industrial and information technologies witnessed over recent centuries has dissolved the connection altogether.


7/19

當今,擺錘 (Pendulum) 的影響尤其強大,因為大家都在讀書、聽廣播、看電視和上網。人類吸收了大量知識,同時也接收了同樣龐大的幻覺,那幻覺同樣牢牢地根植於心靈之中。心與心智的分離,是人類最大的損失。普遍認為,無論在商業、科學、藝術、體育或其他領域,只有少數人才可能真正成功,這一觀念已被視為常態,沒有人去質疑或認為這異常。

The influence of pendulums is particularly great at the present time because everyone is now reading books, listening to the radio, watching television and accessing information via the internet. Humanity has absorbed a huge volume of knowledge and equally as much delusion which holds just as steadfastly in the psyche. The separation of heart and mind is humanity’s greatest loss. The idea that real success, be it in business, science, art, sport or any other sphere can only be achieved by a few individuals is widely accepted as the normal state of affairs. Nobody seems to question it or consider it abnormal.


8/19

你與我無需試圖「拯救人類」。我僅建議你,親愛的朝聖者(Pilgrim),問自己一句:「為什麼是他(她),而不是我?我該怎樣做才能成為那被選中的少數?」我不是奧茲巫師 (Goodwin the Wizard),無法為你施展魔法儀式;我只會直接回答:你早已擁有一切所需,只待你去運用。你有無限的潛能,只是還沒有人告訴你這一點。

There is no point in you and I trying to ‘save humanity’. I simply wish to suggest that you, dear Pilgrim, ask yourself the following question: “Why him (her) and not me? What do I have to do to become one of these chosen few?” I am no Goodwin the Wizard, and so cannot create magic rituals for you; I will simply answer the question directly. You already have everything you need. All you have to do is use it. You are capable of anything, it is just that no-one has told this yet.


9/19

你完全有能力創造出驚人絕倫的藝術作品,做出獨一無二的發現,在體育、商業及其他任何領域取得非凡成就。你只需轉向內心,因為心擁有所有知識與全人類的累積成就。你只是不曾向自己的心尋求答案。所有偉大的藝術、科學與商業天才之所以能創造出傑作,正是因為他們選擇了聆聽心的聲音。那麼,你的心有什麼不如他們?一點也不!

You are capable of creating incredible works of art, making unique discoveries, achieving phenomenal results in sport, business and any other profession. All you have to do is turn to your heart, for the heart has access to all knowledge, as well as the previous achievements of all humanity. You just have not asked your heart yet. All great geniuses of art, science, and business have only succeeded in creating masterpieces because they turned to their hearts. What makes your heart any worse than theirs? Nothing!


10/19

所有傑作都用心的語言與我們對話。無論你做什麼,只有當創作來自內心時,它才能在觀者心中留下深刻印象。心智也許能用舊有模式的磚瓦建造新屋,但沒有人會被那平淡無奇的新設計驚豔;心智可以複製出完美的仿品,但唯有心才能締造原創之作。

All masterpieces speak to us in the language of the heart. Whatever you do your work will only create an impression if it comes from the heart. The mind can build a new house using bricks from a previous model but no-one will be astounded by the new design. The mind can make a perfect copy but only the heart is capable of an original.


11/19

你只需接受這樣一個原則:心早已擁有一切,只待你去開發利用。這既極其簡單,又充滿奧妙;你完全可以享受那擁有的喜悅。擁有的意志 (Intention) 完全取決於你,你可以做到任何事。

All you have to do is accept the axiom that the heart has everything it needs and then give yourself the joy of making the most of it. It is incredibly simple and at the same time totally incomprehensible and still, you can allow yourself the luxury of having. The will to have depends on you alone. You can do anything.


12/19

你可能會懷疑我所說的,但當我們深信自己缺乏必要的才幹、能力或品質,或認為自己不如他人那般有價值與才能時,懷疑就會油然而生。我們很容易相信那些在通往目標道路上樹立高牆的論調。所以,請你(而不是我!)善待自己,堅定認識到你是值得擁有最好一切的人,並全心相信自己有能力達成任何渴望。

The reader may doubt what I claim to be true and yet we rarely experience doubt when we are persuaded that we lack the necessary calibre, ability, and quality, or that we are not as worthy or as talented as others. We easily believe the statements that erect high walls on the path to our goals. So do yourself (not me!) a favour and embrace the knowing that you are worthy and do deserve the absolute best and are capable of achieving whatever you desire with all your heart.


13/19

人人都值得擁有最好的一切,也都有無限的可能,但這一事實卻被刻意隱藏起來。有人告訴我們,認為自己有無限潛能是天真幼稚的;然而,現實恰恰相反。醒來吧,甩掉那虛幻的錯覺。只要你有意識地行使你的權利,你就能制定自己的規則。

The fact that everyone is worthy of the best and capable of anything is meticulously hidden from us. We are told we are naïve to believe we have unlimited capabilities; but the opposite is true. Wake up and shake off the delusion. You can dictate the rules of the game if you consciously exercise your rights.


14/19

沒有人能禁止你嘗試,然而傳統世界觀和擺錘 (Pendulum) 會想盡辦法告訴你,你的目標是遙不可及的。各種看似合理的論據會試圖證明你的能力有限。忽略這些論據,堅持「不合理且輕浮」的信念,相信心與心智 (Unity of heart and mind) 合一後,你就能達成任何事。畢竟,你已無所失;在那些其他看似合理的觀念下,你究竟獲得了什麼呢?

No-one can forbid you from trying but the conventional worldview and pendulums will try to convince you in every way possible that your goal is unattainable. There will be all kinds of reasonable arguments put forward to prove that your capabilities are limited. Ignore these arguments and shield yourself with the ‘unreasonable and frivolous’ conviction that together your heart and mind are capable of anything. After all, you have nothing to lose; for what have you really achieved living within the framework of those other very reasonable arguments?


15/19

你只有一生一次。是不是該動搖那些普遍流傳的信念了?如果它們都是虛假的,而你從未察覺,那該多可惜!立刻行動吧,否則你將沒有機會驗證它們的真假。人生一去不復返;所有可能性都將被耗盡,那生命中的奇蹟之禮只會屬於他人,甚至只屬於少數人,而你將永遠失之交臂。

You only have one life. Is it not time to shake up the pile of commonly held beliefs? What if they turn out to be false and you would never have known? Do it now, otherwise, you will not have time to find out whether they are true or not. Life will pass you by; all the possibilities will have been exhausted and the gifts of this miraculous life given to others, and perhaps indeed they will only be given to a few, but nonetheless, they will not come to you.


16/19

是否要完全行使你的權利,只有你能決定。如果你允許自己擁有什麼,那你就必將達成它。首先,相信心中那無限可能;接著,轉動心智去迎接它。錯誤的信念會讓這變得更難,但 Transurfing 模型能幫助拆解許多錯誤觀念。

Only you can decide whether you want to fully exercise your rights of not. If you can allow yourself to have something you will achieve it. Begin by believing in the unlimited possibilities of the heart and then turning your mind round to face it. False beliefs make this more difficult to do but the Transurfing model helps to deconstruct many erroneous ideas.


17/19

有一種信念是這樣表達的:「最難克服的就是自我」,或者「最難與自我對抗」,又或是俄羅斯一句俗語:「你必須能踩碎自己歌聲的喉嚨」,也就是說,你必須犧牲自己的慾望、替他人著想。這是人類最偉大的錯覺之一。你又怎能和那住在你心中、如此美麗卓絕的存在對抗?何必自我折磨?負面情緒並非來自內心,而是附著於表面,就如同畫作上那層微塵。只要你擦去塵埃,會展露出一顆純淨的心。

One of these beliefs stands as follows: “it is hardest of all to overcome the self” or “it is hardest of all to battle with the self” or the predatory Russian saying: “You have to be able to stamp on the throat of your own song”, i.e. sacrifice your own desires and act in the interests of others. This is one of humanity’s greatest delusions. How can one possibly battle with the amazingly beautiful creature that lives within you, and what would be the point? Negativity does not live within; it lies on the surface like a layer of dust on the surface of a painting. If you wipe the dust away a pure heart is revealed underneath.


18/19

藏在各種面具與服裝背後的那個生物,其實充滿了奇妙的品質。關鍵在於允許自己成為真正的自己。你所戴的那些面具能帶來成功、富足與快樂嗎?試圖改變自己只會生出另一副面具。若你能卸下那些被破壞性擺錘 (Pendulum) 強迫戴上的面具,你將發現隱藏在心中的寶藏。你真心應該擁有最好的,因為你本就是那個驚人、獨特、特別的存在。只需全然接受自己的真實面貌。

The creature that hides behind many different masks and costumes is imbued with truly wonderful qualities. The task is to allow yourself to be you. Surely the masks you wear are not capable of achieving success, abundance and happiness? It is futile to try and change yourself, because all you do is create another mask. If you remove the masks destructive pendulums force us to wear, you will reveal the treasure that is hidden in your heart. You really do deserve the best because you really are an, amazing, unique, special being. Just allow yourself to be so.


19/19

如果你崇拜藝術、科學或電影界的天才,就要知道你也能與他們並肩。天才之作之所以吸引你,正是因為這些創作源自於內心。只要你的創作發自於你靈魂 (subconscious) 的獨特性,它同樣能取悅他人。凡事平庸的,都是心智的產物,心智及其創作並非無可超越。你內在珍藏著真正的寶藏,因為唯有心才是獨一無二的。只有心才能締造出驚人絕倫的創作,務必確保心智不成阻礙。

If you admire the geniuses of the art world, science or cinema, know that you too can join their ranks. The reason the work of a genius appeals to you so much is because these creative works are born of the heart. What you choose to create will please others just the same, as long as it originates from the uniqueness of your soul. Everything that is ordinary and mediocre is created by the mind. There is nothing unsurpassable about the mind or its creations. You carry a real treasure within you; for the heart is unique. Only the heart can produce an ingenious creation. Make sure the mind allows it to do so.
