萨古鲁：如何面对癌症？
Question: Sadhguru, I discovered towards the end of last month that I got my second attack of cancer. They said I must go through chemotherapy and radiation and the doctor said my chances of recovery depend on how I’m able to take it. Now, this is where I find myself in a dilemma – how do I take it? Do I calmly accept the drug as it flows into my veins? This is one feeling which I am getting. The other feeling which I am getting is that of fighting back. I just want to know, how should I look at it?
问：萨古鲁，我上个月末得知自己癌症复发。他们跟我说必须要接受化疗和放射治疗，并且医生还跟我说我的恢复情况由我的心态而定。这就是我现在所处的两难境地：我该采取哪种心态呢？在药物进入我的血管时，我有两种感觉，一是平静地接受药物进入身体，另外一种是反抗它。我想知道自己该如何看待它？
Sadhguru: Coming to the doctor’s statement, “It all depends on how you take it.” Yes, it all depends on how you take it. “Should I fight it?” How can you fight an enemy that you cannot see? And cancer is not somebody. You are the cancer. A part of you has turned against yourself. You can’t fight it.
Sadhguru（萨古鲁）：就像医生说的：“这全依你的心态而定。”是的，完全在于你如何面对它。“我应该对抗癌症吗？”你要如何去对抗一个你看不见的敌人呢？而且“癌”不是别人，“癌”是你自己。你身体的一部分对抗着自己。你无法“对抗”癌。
Cancer is not somebody. You are the cancer. A part of you has turned against yourself. You can’t fight it.
癌不是别人，癌是你自己。你身体的一部分对抗着自己。你无法“对抗”癌。
“So what should I do?” It is just that largely, most human beings are always working against himself or herself in some way. If you created a moment of anger, you are working against yourself, isn’t it?
“那么我该怎么做呢？”问题的真相是，大多数人总在以某种方式对抗自己。你如果生了一下气，在那一刻你不就是在对抗自己吗？不是吗？
So, in some way, most people have some kind of cancer. Only when it manifests physiologically it becomes a medical issue. Till then it is your problem.Now that it’s physiologically manifested for a variety of reasons, fighting cancer is not the way. Fighting for something and fighting against something are two different things, isn’t it? And anyway, it’s best to take the fight out of it.
所以，在某种程度上，大多数人都有某种“癌症”。它在生理上显现的时候，就变成了医疗问题，在这之前只是你自己的问题。现在由于各种原因，它是生理上显现的病症了，而对抗它却不是解决办法。为某种东西而战和与某种东西相战是不同的，不是吗？而且不管怎么说，最好把“对抗”从中去除。
If you want a plant to grow and blossom into beautiful fragrant flowers, you can think you are fighting the earth and getting flowers out of it. Or you can see it as a great love affair, that your involvement with the earth gives out such beauty and fragrance for you. The second is a more intelligent way of doing it because your experience will be pleasant. The result we don’t know, it may flower or the cow may eat it up. But whichever way, if your experience of what you are doing is very pleasant, the result will become irrelevant to you.
你如果想让一株植物生长，结出美丽芬芳的花朵，你可以认为你在同土壤战斗，让花朵破土而出。或者你可以将这看为一件充满爱的事情，你同土地联结，生出朵朵芬芳。第二种是更明智的做法，因为你的这段经历会很愉快。我们并不知道结果，它可能开花也可能被牛吃掉。但无论哪种结局，如果在过程中觉得非常愉快，结局对你而言就并不重要了。
The yogic systems look at how to improve the healthy cells so that they can take care of cancer by themselves before it even develops.
瑜伽体系侧重于增强健康细胞，防止它们发生癌变。
“Then does it not matter whether I live or die?” It matters, that is why you must do it the way it works. Just because you are a brave man, you will fight and die, that’s of no use to anyone and that’s of no consequence to your life. Maybe it happened your way or it didn’t happen your way, but what is most important is, at least you did the right things. So when death stares you in the face, it’s a great possibility. Because it is reminding you that you are mortal, which is not a simple thing. Most people have forgotten that they are mortal, they think it only happens to somebody else. No, it’s going to happen to you and me. How it happens is different but it’s going to happen to you and me.
“那么我生或死都不重要了吗？”这很重要，所以你必须要用有效的方法。你仅仅因为勇敢，去对抗癌症最后却死了。这对任何人都没有意义，对你自己的生命也没有意义。不管最后它是否以你想要的方式发生，这并不重要，最重要的是你至少做了对的事。在死神盯着你的时候，你有了一个很好的机会。因为这提醒了你是一个凡人的事实，而有这种认识不是个简单的事情。大多数忘了自己是个终有一死的凡人，总觉得这是发生在别人身上的事。不是的，死亡是会发生在你我身上的事。它以不同的方式发生，但是它终有一日会发生在你我身上。
So, about how to deal with the cancer, the yogic practices can help you but first go through the allopathic treatment. It’s a most aggressive and invasive treatment but it’s best to go through that rather than take chances. Medicine is only looking at how to kill the cancer cells, while the yogic systems look at how to improve the healthy cells so that they can take care of cancer by themselves before it even develops. There are many things that can be done in the yogic system, but with cancer, the risk levels are so high and the time allowed is so little, we don’t usually take a chance with that. It’s best to go through the treatment and then do other things so that recurrence doesn’t happen.
所以，关于如何治疗癌症，瑜伽练习可以帮助你，但是首先请接受医院专业的对抗疗法。这是种刺激性极强的疗法，但最好接受治疗而不是冒险不做。药物只是针对如何杀死癌细胞，而瑜伽旨在增强健康细胞，防止它们发生癌变。瑜伽体系中有很多方法，但是癌症风险太高，时间太紧迫，所以我们通常不冒那个险。最好先去治疗，然后再借助瑜伽，这样能避免癌症复发。
【反思】
最近广州深圳的疫情又严重了一些，从实验室的举措上就能看出，进出管理都变严格了。之前都没人打疫苗，一下次疫苗变得稀缺且不好打。果然，比起疫苗的副作用，保命更加重要。广州甚至需要排老长的队去打一针疫苗。其实，刚开始自己也不想去打，觉得国内已经相当安全了，而且疫苗可控性也不清楚，能不打就不打，就这么拖着。拖到实在拖不下去了，实习单位要求不打的没法进去办公了，才跑去打了第一针。或许大家都惜命，不想当小白鼠。可，也正因为没有打，中招的概率就大大增加了，自己得无所谓，可一定会传播，这是最可怕的。所以，积极响应国家号召，打好疫苗，别啥都赶在不行的时候才去做。就显得非常被动且无奈。早打早了事。
而疫情也告诉了我们，战斗并未结束，关照好自己，别乱出行，管住自己，也是对他人的交代。生命面前无大小。
