头脑的四个面向——驾驭头脑的真正力量丨四种Chit Shakti冥想汇总
The Four Parts of Mind – Harnessing the True Power of the Mind
心识的四个面向——收获心识的真正力量
Sadhguru explains the four parts of mind - Buddhi, Manas, Ahankara and Chitta - and reveals that if you manage to touch the Chitta which is the cosmic intelligence, God becomes your slave!
萨古鲁阐释了心识的四个面向——Buddhi、Manas、Ahankara和Chitta——并揭示了如果你设法触及到了宇宙智慧Chitta,连神都会成为你的奴隶!
Questioner: Namaskaram, Sadhguru. I have been doing Chit Shakti meditation, and sometimes, I find it difficult to visualize, but later on, things have really happened. Can you throw some light on that?
提问者:Namaskaram,萨古鲁。我一直在做Chit Shakti冥想,有时候,我觉得观想很难,但后来,事情就真的发生了。你能解释一下吗?
Sadhguru: Chit Shakti meditation is not just visualization. In the yogic understanding, there are 16 dimensions to the human mind. These 16 dimensions fall into four categories. These four categories are known as buddhi, manas, ahankara, and chitta. Buddhi is the intellect – the logical dimension of thought. Unfortunately, the modern education systems and modern sciences have largely limited themselves to buddhi. That is a buddhu (foolish) way of existence.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):Chit Shakti冥想不仅仅只是观想。在瑜伽的认知里,人的心识有十六个层面。这十六个层面归为四类。这四类被称为buddhi、manas、ahankara和chitta。Buddhi是指智力——思维的逻辑层面。遗憾的是,现代教育体系和现代科学在很大程度上把自身局限在buddhi之内。这是一种buddhu(愚蠢)的存在方式。
Buddhi – The Intellect
Buddhi——智力
Buddhi or the intellect cannot function without a certain bank of memory or data. Depending on the data you have, the intellect plays around. Suppose in your memory system, there are 10 gigabytes of memory. Depending on how sharp your buddhi is, one person can produce, let’s say, a trillion thoughts with these 10 gigabytes. Someone else can produce 10 trillion thoughts with the same 10 gigabytes of memory.
缺少了记忆库或数据库,Buddhi(智力)就无法运作。根据你所拥有的数据,智力才能施展拳脚。假设在你的记忆系统中,有10GB的记忆。根据你的Buddhi有多敏锐,比如,一个人可以用这10GB的记忆产生出一万亿个想法。而另一人却可以用同样的10GB记忆产生出十万亿个想法。
In the yogic understanding, there are 16 dimensions to the human mind.
在瑜伽的认知里,人的心识有十六个层面。
If you can think a little better than someone else, it is considered as intelligence today. If someone says one thing and you can say ten things to that, you may be socially smart, but you are not any more intelligent. Unfortunately, in today’s systems of education and academics, everything is determined by this. If you can make more things out of it, you are considered intelligent, which is not true – you only have a sharper buddhi. The buddhi will not take you beyond limits in any way, because it can only function based on the data that is already there. It is not capable of accessing anything beyond that.
如果你比别人更善于思考些,这在今天被认为是智慧。如果一个人说出一点,而你可以对此说出十点来,也许你就会在社交场合中看似聪明,但你并非更具有智慧。遗憾的是,在现今的教育和学术体系中,一切都依这个来判定。如果你能想出更多的东西,你就被认为有智慧,其实不然——你只是拥有更敏锐的buddhi。Buddhi不会以任何方式带你超越局限,因为它只能基于已有的数据运作。它无法去到既定数据之外。
Manas – A Huge Silo of Memory
Manas——一个巨大的记忆仓
The next dimension is called manas. Manas has many layers to it. But manas is not just the brain – it is right across the body. Every cell in the body has a phenomenal memory – not just of this life but of millions of years. Your body clearly remembers how your forefathers were a million years ago. Top to bottom, there is manas – this is called manomaya kosha. In every cell in the body, there is memory and intelligence, but no intellect. Intellect is only in the brain.
下一维度被称为manas。Manas有很多个层面,不仅仅指大脑——它贯穿整个身体。身体的每一个细胞都有惊人的记忆——不单是今生的记忆,而是数百万年的记忆。你的身体清楚地记得你祖先在一百万年前是怎样的。身体从上到下都有manas——这被称作manomaya kosha(精神身)。在身体的每一个细胞里,都有记忆和智慧,但没有智力。智力只存在于大脑中。
What is in the brain is intellect, not intelligence. Intelligence and memory are right across your body. But people have never been trained how to use this intelligence.
大脑里的是智力,不是智慧。智慧和记忆遍布你的全身。但人们从未接受过如何使用这种智慧的训练。
In English language, everything comes under one banner called “mind.” The idea that intelligence is only in the brain has produced human beings whose consciousness is seriously constipated. What is in the brain is intellect, not intelligence. Intelligence and memory are right across your body. But people have never been trained how to use this intelligence. Instead, they use their intellect for everything. No wonder they are stressed out whatever job you give them. The whole weight is on only one dimension of the mind out of sixteen. It is like loading a sixteen-wheeler truck and trying to drive on only one wheel – you can imagine the stress! That is what today’s world is going through.
在英语中,所有的一切都归在“头脑”的统称之下。“智慧只存在于大脑中”这种看法,使人们的觉知严重受阻。大脑里的是智力,不是智慧。智慧和记忆遍布你的全身。但人们从未接受过如何使用这种智慧的训练。相反,他们只是使用智力对付一切。难怪不管你给他们什么工作,他们都会有压力。所有的重量都压在十六个维度中的一个上。这就好比是让一辆十六轮卡车装满货,却只靠一个轮子行驶——可以想象这压力有多大!这就是当今世界正在经历的事情。
People may be using other dimensions of the mind marginally, unconsciously, but they are not trained to use them. They have only been trained to use their buddhi, or their intellect. They are very smart. They know everything about everything, but they do not know how to figure their own life. They do not even know how to sit here peacefully and at total ease within themselves. If there is true intelligence, the first thing that you need to figure out is how to make life happen. You know how to make the world happen, but you do not know how to make your life happen. You do not know how to conduct your mind, your energies, your emotions or your body.
人们可能无意识地稍微使用了一点儿心识的其它维度,但他们并没有被训练去使用这些维度。而他们只接受过使用buddhi(智力)的训练。他们非常聪明,什么都知道,但却不知道怎样去弄清楚自己的生命。他们甚至不知道如何安静地坐在这里,让内心完全地放松。如果有真正的智慧,你首先要弄清楚的就是如何让生命发生。你知道如何让世界发生,但你不知道如何让自己的生命发生。你不知道如何指挥你的思想、你的能量、你的情绪或你的身体。
If you ask people to become fit, they become tight. If you ask them to live in a more natural way, they become fat. Where is the intelligence? There is only intellect. Intellect looks good only in comparison. Suppose you are the only person on the planet, your intellect will not mean anything. Only because there are a few idiots around you, you shine. By itself, intellect will not be of any consequence.
如果你让人们变得健硕,他们就会变得紧绷。如果你让他们以更自然的方式生活,他们就会变胖。这哪里有智慧?只有智力。智力只有在比较中才显得不错。假设你是地球上唯一的人,那你的智力将毫无意义。只因为你身边有几个白痴,你才出类拔萃。就智力本身而言,它并不重要。
Ahankara – The Sense of Identity
Ahankara——身份认同感
The intellect directly connects with the third dimension of your mind, called ahankara. Ahankara is sometimes translated as ego, but it is much more than that. Ahankara gives you a sense of identity. Once your ahankara takes on an identity, your intellect functions only in that context. It is important to function beyond the intellect, because the intellect is seriously enslaved to your identity.
智力直接与心识的第三个维度相连,这个维度被称为ahankara。Ahankara有时被翻译成自我(ego),但它远不止于此。Ahankara给你一种身份认同感。一旦你的Ahankara认同于一个身份,你的智力就只在那个背景下运作。超越智力去运作很重要,因为智力会严重地被你的身份认同限制。
There are other ways to know life beyond the identities we have taken on for our survival in the world.
除了我们为了活在世上而认同的身份,还有其它知晓生命的方法。
Our identities, such as belonging to a certain nation, community, or whatever else, are necessary for our survival in a particular society. But you cannot think beyond this because you are functioning only from your intellect, and the intellect takes its sustenance from ahankara. Only along the axis of ahankara, the intellect can function. The intellect cannot transcend this, because that is its nature. But there are other ways to know life beyond the identities we have taken on for our survival in the world.
我们的身份认同,比如属于某个国家、社区或其它什么,对于我们在既定社会中生存是必要的。但你的所想无法超越这个身份认同,因为你只是基于你的智力去运作,而智力是从ahankara中获取养分的。只有围绕着ahankara,智力才能运转。智力无法超越这一点,因为这是它的本质。但是,除了我们为了活在世上而认同的身份,还有其它知晓生命的方法。
Chitta – The Cosmic Intelligence
Chitta——宇宙的智慧
The fourth category of the mind is called chitta. Chitta is mind without memory – pure intelligence. This intelligence is like the cosmic intelligence – simply there. Everything happens because of that. It does not function out of memory – it simply functions. In a way, what you call cosmos is a living mind, not in the sense of intellect but in the sense of chitta. Chitta is the last point of the mind. It connects to the basis of creation within you. It connects you with your consciousness.
心识的第四类被称为chitta。Chitta是没有记忆的心识——是纯粹的智慧。这种智慧就像宇宙的智慧一样——只是简单地存在着。而一切都因它而发生。它不因记忆而运作——它只是纯粹地运作着。在某种程度上,你们所说的宇宙是一个活的“心识”,不是智力意义上的,而是Chitta意义上的心识。Chitta是“心识”的最后一点。它连接着你内在的造物基础。它连接着你和你的意识。
Chitta is always on – whether you are awake or asleep. Your intellect comes on and goes off. Many times it fails, even when you are awake. If chitta or the intelligence within you was not always on, you could not stay alive. Try to conduct your breath with your intellect – you will go crazy. Chitta is keeping you alive, keeping you going, making life happen. If you touch this dimension of your mind, which is the linking point to one’s consciousness, you do not even have to wish for anything, you do not have to dream of anything – the best possible thing that can happen to you will anyway happen.
Chitta一直运行着——无论你是醒着还是睡着了。你的智力会开工也会停工。很多时候,即便你是清醒的,智力还是会出错。但如果chitta,或者说你的内在智慧没有一直运转,你就无法生存。试着用你的智力去指挥你的呼吸——你会疯掉的。是Chitta让你活着,让你前行,让生命发生。如果你触及了心识的这个层面——这个与意识的连接点,你甚至不需要许愿,也不需要去梦想什么——无论如何,最好的事情都会在你身上发生。
The Divine Enslaved
神性为奴
When people touch this dimension of the mind, it is called ishwara pranidhana in yoga. This means God becomes your slave – he works for you. You know, yogis say, “Shiva is my servant. He does everything for me.” In a way, otherwise, I would not be here. Once you know how to consciously access your chitta, everything that is needed will simply happen in the best possible way. If you go by your intellect or your buddhi, today you think “this is it,” tomorrow morning you think “that is it” – like this it goes on endlessly.
当人们触及心识的这个层面时,在瑜伽中被称为ishwara pranidhana。这意味着神成为了你的奴隶——他会为你而工作。知道吗,瑜伽士们说,“Shiva是我的仆人,他为我做所有的一切。” 在某种程度上的确如此,否则,我就不会在这里了。一旦你知道如何有意识地连接你的chitta,一切所需都会以最好的方式发生。如果你按你的buddhi(智力)去行事,今天你会认为“就按这个办!”,而明天早上你又会认为“就按那个办!”——就这样无休止地进行下去。
Chitta is the last point of the mind. It connects to the basis of creation within you. It connects you with your consciousness.
Chitta是“心识”的最后一点。它连接着你内在的造物基础。它连接着你和你的意识。
Once you know how to consciously keep your chitta on, once the Divine is your servant, when someone really efficient is working for you, you do not have to do anything. Simply sit; the best things will happen – things that you could not imagine. People always think if their dreams come true, their life will be great. I think that is a very poor life, because you cannot dream about anything that is not at all in your experience. My wish and my blessing for you is things that you could not dream of, things that you never thought possible, must happen to you. What you did not dream must happen to you – that is why you should not dream.
一旦你知道如何有意识地与你的chitta保持连接,一旦神性成为你的仆人,当有非常高效的人为你工作时,你什么也不用做。只需坐下来,最好的事情就会发生——你想都想不到的事都会发生。人们总是认为,如果他们的梦想实现了,他们的生活就会很好。我认为那是可怜兮兮的生活,因为你梦想不到任何你完全没有经历过的事情。我的愿望和对你的祝福是,那些你做梦都梦不到的事情、那些你从来没有想过可能发生的事情,一定要发生在你身上。你没有梦想过的事情,一定要发生在你身上——这就是为什么你不应该做梦。
Instead of seeing how to delve deeper into yourself, you go on projecting stupid ideas into the world. People think that is a great thing to do. Last time when I was in the US, and someone said to me, “Sadhguru, how do you manifest all this?” I said, “I do not manifest anything. I am just fooling around. I got a very efficient partner [Shiva]. I simply leave it to him, and it happens.”
你不去考虑如何更深入地探索自己,而是不停向世界投射愚蠢的想法。人们认为这是一件伟大的事情。上次我在美国的时候,有人对我说:“萨古鲁,你是如何显化出这些的?”我说:“我没有显化任何东西。我只是随便弄弄。我有一个非常高效的伙伴(Shiva)。我就让他去做,然后事情就发生了。”
Chit Shakti is about touching the dimension of your mind that is pure intelligence – unsullied by memory, unsullied by identification. It is beyond ahankara, beyond buddhi, beyond judgment, beyond divisions – simply there, just like the intelligence of existence that makes everything happen. If you access this, you do not have to worry about what happens or what does not happen. It will happen in a way that you never imagined possible.
Chit Shakti是去触碰心识中纯智慧的那个层面——它不受记忆的污染,也不受身份的污染。它超越了ahankara、超越了buddhi、超越了评判、超越了分裂——就只是纯粹地在那里,就像让一切得以发生的存在的智慧一样。如果你连接到这个,你就不必担心什么会发生,或什么不会发生。它将以一种你从未想象过的方式发生。
Once you have access to your chitta, it is also a multi-pointed telescope. It makes you see things that no one else can see – in every direction.
一旦你连接上了你的chitta,它还是一个多角望远镜,让你在各个方向上看到别人看不到的东西。
Once you have access to your chitta, it is also a multi-pointed telescope. It makes you see things that no one else can see – in every direction. It is your crystal ball. It is a magnifying glass that brings the very core of life close to you. For everyone else, it is far way. Everyone thinks the Divine is somewhere up there. Where exactly, no one knows. All they know is, it seems far away.
一旦你连接上了你的chitta,它还是一个多角望远镜,让你在各个方向上看到别人看不到的东西。它是你的水晶球。它是一个放大镜,让生命的核心靠近你。对别人来说,它在远方。大家都认为,神性在高高在上的某处。但具体在哪里,没人知道。他们只知道,它似乎很遥远。
The moment you start looking at life through your chitta, where there is no memory, there is no karmic substance and no division. Suddenly, the Divine is right there, bang on, in your face all the time. You cannot miss it.
一旦你开始透过你的chitta看向生命,在这里没有记忆,没有业力,也没有分裂。突然间,神性就在这里,正正中中、一直就在你的眼前。你不可能错过它。
The idea of Chit Shakti is not to keep asking for things. The idea is that if the physical arrangements of life happen easily, you can dedicate more time for your spiritual wellbeing. It would be stupid if just because it happens easily, first you want to be a millionaire, then you want to be a billionaire. The main intention is that your physical life happens more easily, that it does not take your entire time to handle it, so that you will have time to close your eyes and sit. Please make use of it for this purpose.
Chit Shakti冥想的意图不是要不断地索取。它的理念是,如果安置物质生活变得很容易,你就可以把更多的时间用于你的灵性福祉。如果只是因为它太容易发生,首先你想成为百万富翁,然后你想成为亿万富翁,那就太愚蠢了。它的主要意图是让你的物质生活更容易得到安置,不需要耗费你全部的时间,这样你就有时间闭上眼睛,坐下来。请把它用于这个目的。

多交流,去除盲点以及认知错误的部分,才会走向光明。更多的时候,需要参考意见,然后进行明晰的判断来决定一件事情,而不再是盲目从事,或一拍脑袋的生硬比对。
逐渐去除旧的模式,替代以新的形式。
