人之所以上瘾,因为它能给人某种特殊的刺激,兴奋与幸福感,不是他物所能取代的。所以,在毕业的课程中,对真知的承诺,真会让人觉得自己是在放弃十分有意义的东西,也就是个人创作的成就感所带来的那种价值与意义。
The process of thinking, reasoning, and coming to conclusions-which is another way of saying "making judgments"-will be replaced by Knowing. And the actions and words which followed the thinking, reasoning, and judgment will be replaced by expressing the Knowing as you are Knowing it-not as you have heard it and repeated it at a later time.
然而思考、推论、总结(就是所谓的判断)的过程,迟早会被真知取代;随着思考、推论,判断而起的言行举动,也会被“你就是纯然知道”所取代,那绝不是你听到一些话而后覆述出来的那一种“知道”。
Yes, it may seem as though you are channeling all the time. That is a way of conceptualizing it which is, for all intents and purposes, accurate. But really, what has channeling meant? That you were expressing what you were not personally responsible for. That you were not being a calculated controlled presence. And, indeed, what I have been telling you so far is: That is the real You being you, and the thinking, calculating, judging sense of Paul which you have thought was you has been an imaginary sidekick which, in the final analysis constitutes excess baggage of nonsense. You have had enough experience now, in the last nine years, to be able to hear that and understand that it is completely true and nonthreatening-not dangerous.
