During the peak of coronavirus pandemic in Sri Lanka, that is mid 2020, I came up with a surprising way to fill my life with bliss and grace. A magical mantra was nurturing in the garden of my mind. It felt like all good thoughts that I have planted in my mind has begun to blossom into something beautiful. This magical mantra was like a magic pill for all perceived suffering, which not only affected my life but everyone else connected to me.
在斯里兰卡新冠疫情的高峰期, 也就是 2020 年的中期, 我想到了一种出人意料的方式 去让我的生活充满幸福和恩典。 一个神奇的咒语 正在我的心灵花园里生根发芽。 这感觉就像我在脑海中 种下的所有善念 都开始绽放成美丽的事物。 这个神奇的咒语 就像一粒神奇的药丸, 可以治愈所有我们所认为的痛苦, 这些痛苦不仅影响了我的生活, 而且影响了和我有关的每个人。
Thirty-eight years of my life, I went on a self-seeking journey, finding, who am I? I went through a conscious dying process, letting go of everything attached to my name: well-established career as a coach, a charity consultant, hypnotherapist, energy healer, intimate relationships, attachment to family, 12 years of well-established business. So what was this magical mantra that transformed my life for better?
在我人生的 38 年来, 我曾踏上寻找自我的旅程, 去寻找,我是谁? 我经历了一个有意识的死亡过程, 放下了与我名字相关的一切: 我建立的事业,作为教练、慈善顾问、 催眠师、能量治疗师, 亲密关系,对家庭的依恋, 经营 12 年之久的稳固生意。 那么,到底是什么神奇的咒语 使我的生活变得更好呢?
"Thank you" were the two simple words that filled the space between my ears like a music in my head. This was experienced profoundly during the pandemic, as everyone connected to me was filled with fear and doubt and anxiety, and I had to do something different. The first thought came to my mind, first thing in the morning as I woke up, was, "Thank you." And the last thought occupied my mind when I went to sleep at night was, "Thank you." I was thinking, "Thank you" when I ate, when I drank, when I worked, when I walked, sat silently, when I consumed every man-made material. It was like a music in my mind. Sometimes I said the word "thank you" loudly even to inanimate objects like sun and the moon and the stars, birds, butterflies, trees, little creatures in the garden as if I was greeting them.
“谢谢” 这两个简单的字, 它回荡在我耳边就像 荡漾在我脑海里的音乐。 这在大流行期间就深有体会, 因为与我有关的每个人 都充满了恐惧、怀疑和焦虑, 而我不得不做些不同的事情。 我早上醒来首先想到第一件事 就是,“谢谢”。 当我晚上睡觉时, 我最后的一个想法也是,“谢谢”。 当我吃饭、喝水、 工作、走路、静坐时, 当我使用每一个人造的物品时 都会感谢, 感谢就像我心中的音乐。 有时我甚至会大声地 说出 “谢谢” 这个词, 甚至是对着非生命体, 如太阳和月亮, 以及星星,鸟类,蝴蝶,树木, 花园中的小动物都没有生命, 就像我在问候它们一样。
When you say "thank you," it creates a harmony between you and the external condition under observation. It helps you to bring your attention inwards. It may be initially just a word running in your head without a true feeling of gratitude in your heart. A word is a sound, and a sound is a vibration, and vibration creates energy. So when you keep thinking, "Thank you," after a while, that energy start penetrating into your heart center and the rest of the body.
当你说 “谢谢” 时, 它会在你与所观察到的 外部事物之间创造出一种和谐, 它能帮助你把注意力转向内在。 起初可能只是一个词回荡在你脑海, 心中却没有真正的感激之情。 一个词就一种声音, 一种声音就是一次振动, 而振动会产生能量。 因此,当你继续思考,“谢谢”, 过一会儿能量就会开始渗透到 你的心中以及全身。
We cannot do much about troubled times and conditions in life, but we certainly can do something to calm ourselves during troubled times. Human mind is like water. If it gets affected by external conditions, it creates movement and you cannot see the depth. This magical mantra, "thank you," and the true feeling of gratitude in your heart can help you deal with any life situation peacefully, joyfully and blissfully. May all beings be well, happy, free from all suffering and be enlightened.
对于生活中的动荡时期和状况 我们无能为力, 但在动荡时期,我们一定可以 做一些事情让自己平静下来。 人的心灵就像水。 如果受到外界条件的影响, 它会震动,而你看不到。 这个神奇的咒语,“谢谢”, 以及内心真正的感恩之情 可以帮助你找到平静、喜悦、幸福, 去应对生活中任何状况。 愿众生幸福,快乐,摆脱一切苦难, 并得到顿悟。
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
谢谢。 谢谢。 谢谢。
