Extinguishing a Pendulum
49. Extinguishing a Pendulum
原則 (Principle)
Principle
Be prepared for the pendulums to provoke you. When you find yourself in an unpleasant situation or when you receive bad news, you are naturally thrown off balance. In the standard scenario, you ought to worry, be afraid, run away, lose heart or express your dissatisfaction or irritation. Now, do the opposite. Offer an abnormal response. Smash the script and try substitution: replace fear with confidence, despondency with enthusiasm, indignation with indifference and irritation with joy. The essence of the pendulum game is to pull you off balance. You have to break the rules of the game intentionally. Do whatever you like, just as long as it is not what people expect and then, victory will be yours.

詮釋
Interpretation
鐘擺 (Pendulum) 吸取人類的能量。舉例來說，當某件事激怒你時，你便會發洩怒火，無形中將能量交給鐘擺 (Pendulum)；而鐘擺 (Pendulum) 似乎刻意挑起一切，從而引發強烈的負面情緒。當你遇到不幸的境況並以煩躁來回應時，這種負面情緒便會延續，進而使整個情境持續惡化或催生出全新的不愉快狀況。這正是鐘擺 (Pendulum) 的運作方式：當你接受了那被強加的遊戲規則，你便在無形中與鐘擺 (Pendulum) 同頻共振。改變你的舉止吧！不要產生任何反應，或完全以相反的方式回應，那樣你就能破壞鐘擺 (Pendulum) 的擺動。你的任務就是以非典型的反應，創造出屬於你自己的遊戲規則，因為唯一的原則在於：當你的頻率與鐘擺 (Pendulum) 的共鳴頻率截然不同時，你與鐘擺 (Pendulum) 之間便產生了不協和音，使得鐘擺 (Pendulum) 不再依附於你的能量，最終便會自動放你一馬。（Note: 此段強調透過改變反應頻率，打破鐘擺 (Pendulum) 預設的能量操控）
Pendulums feed on human energy. For example, when something makes you angry, you express your fury and give your energy away to the pendulum. The pendulums provoke everything, which could potentially evoke strong, negative emotions. When you come across some unfortunate circumstance and react by getting irritated, there is a continuation and the negative situation develops in the same spirit, or new unpleasant situations arise. That is how the pendulum swings. You swing the pendulum yourself when you accept the game imposed on you. Behave differently. Either don’t react at all or respond in the opposite way altogether and then you will still the pendulum’s sway. Your task is to introduce a different game, your own game, by reacting in an abnormal manner. The sole principle here lies in the fact that when you swing with a different frequency to the resonant frequency, a dissonance is set up between you and the pendulum which causes the pendulum to stop swinging in relationship to your energy, as a result of which, it will leave you alone.

Principle
準備好面對鐘擺 (Pendulum) 的挑釁。當你發現自己處於不愉快的情況或收到壞消息時，你自然會失去平衡。在標準情況下，你應該擔心、害怕、逃跑、失去信心或表達不滿或煩躁。現在，做相反的事情。提供一個異常的反應。打破劇本，嘗試替代：用自信取代恐懼，用熱情取代沮喪，用冷漠取代憤慨，用喜悅取代煩躁。鐘擺遊戲的本質是讓你失去平衡。你必須故意打破遊戲規則。做任何你喜歡的事情，只要不是人們所期望的，那麼勝利將屬於你。

Interpretation
鐘擺以人類的能量為食。例如，當某事讓你生氣時，你表達憤怒並將能量交給鐘擺。鐘擺挑釁一切可能引發強烈負面情緒的事情。當你遇到不幸的情況並以煩躁回應時，會有後續，負面情況會以同樣的精神發展，或者出現新的不愉快情況。這就是鐘擺的擺動。當你接受強加給你的遊戲時，你自己在擺動鐘擺。行為不同。要麼根本不反應，要麼完全以相反的方式回應，然後你將平息鐘擺的擺動。你的任務是通過異常反應引入不同的遊戲，你自己的遊戲。這裡唯一的原則在於，當你以不同於共振頻率的頻率擺動時，你和鐘擺之間會產生不和諧，這會導致鐘擺停止相對於你的能量擺動，結果是，它會離開你。

準備好擺錘 (Pendulums) 挑釁你。當你處不愉快情況或收到壞消息，你自然失衡。標準劇本中，你應擔憂、害怕、逃避、灰心或表達不滿、惱怒。現在，做相反。給異常反應。打破劇本，試替代：以自信替恐懼、以熱情替沮喪、以冷漠替憤慨、以喜悅替惱怒。擺錘遊戲的本質是拉你失衡。你需有意打破遊戲規則。隨你喜好，只要非人預期，勝利屬你。

擺錘以人的能量為食。例如，某事惹你生氣，你表達憤怒，將能量給擺錘。擺錘挑起可能引發強烈負面情緒的一切。當你遇不幸環境，惱怒反應，情況延續，負面情況依同樣精神發展，或新不愉快情況出現。這是擺錘搖擺。你接受強加的遊戲，親自搖擺擺錘。行為不同。要么不反應，要么完全相反反應，你將止擺錘搖擺。你的任務是引入不同遊戲，你的遊戲，以異常方式反應。唯一原則是，當你以不同於共振頻率 (Resonant Frequency) 的頻率搖擺，你與擺錘間產生不和 (Dissonance)，使擺錘停止與你的能量相關，結果它會離開你。
