Suffering, although seemingly inevitable,is optional and self-inflicted, is what Sadhguru explains in this piece. Whilewe may not have absolute control over the situations around us, we do have thepower to choose how we experience and respond to them.
苦难虽然看似不可避免，却是可选择、自我造成的，这就是萨古鲁在这篇文章中所解释的。或许我们无法绝对控制周围的情境，但我们确实有权力选择去如何经历及回应。
Questioner: I come from a familywith a stream of incredible disasters. How to help people who onlysuffer?
发问者：我来自一个有着难以置信又灾难频繁的家庭。如何帮助这些受尽磨难的人？
Sadhguru: This may not sound compassionate to you, but you mustunderstand this – do you want solace, or do you want a solution? If you want asolution, there is a certain way to handle it. If you want solace, I can saycomforting, nice things, but that is not a solution. It makes you comfortablefor a moment; the next moment, it will be the same thing again. If you want asolution, you need to understand, you are only suffering your memories. You are notsuffering life.
萨古鲁：这听起来可能不太有同情心，但你必须明白这一点—你是想要安慰，还是想要一个解决方案？如果需要解决方案，要有特定处理方法。如果你只想安慰，我能说安慰好听的话，但这并非解决办法，只会让你感到暂时舒服;下一刻起又将是同样的事情。如果你想要解决方案，你必须明白，你只是受苦于你的记忆，并非痛苦的生活。
Suffering is entirely your making. Other peoplecan create situations; they cannot make you or me suffer.
受苦完全是你所选，他人可以创造情势;但他们不能让你我痛苦。
Yourmemories exist in two places – one is your body, another one is your mind. Bothare accumulations that you created over a period of time. It is like theclothing you wear… right now, I am wearing lose clothing, so I am constantlyaware of it. Suppose I was wearing very tight nylon clothes; after some time, Iwould not know which my skin is and which my clothing. That is all that hashappened to you – you do not know which is you, which is your body, which isyour mind – it has all become like you, because you are wearing it so tight. Ifyou have done Isha Kriya, youwill know this: “I’m not the body; I’m not even the mind.” If you sit here, andthere is a little space between you and your body, between you and your mind –this is the end of suffering.
你的记忆存在两个地方——一个是你的身体，另一个是你的头脑，两者都是你创建并累积一段时期，就像你穿的衣服...现在我正穿着丢失的衣服，而我不断意识到这点。假设我穿着非常紧的尼龙衣服;过一段时间，我不知道我的皮肤、衣服是怎样，这就是发生在你身上的一切—你不知道哪个是你，你身体在哪，哪个是你的头脑—它变得像你一样，因为你裹着得如此紧。如果你已做Isha克里亚，你就会知道：'我不是身体;我甚至不是这个头脑'。如果你坐在这里，你和自已身体之间，你和自己头脑之间，有些许空间—这就是受苦的终结。
You haveonly two kinds of sufferings: physicalsuffering and mental suffering. If you maintain a little distance betweenyou and your mind, this is the end of suffering. This mind is a tremendouspossibility, but most human beings are using it as a misery manufacturingmachine. I even see that today, for whatever reasons, suffering seems to bepopular. When someone talks about pain, people clap their hands; when someonetalks about joy, people laugh at them.
你只有两种痛苦：身体上的痛苦和精神痛苦。如果保持你和自己头脑间有些许距离，这就是痛苦的終结，这样头脑有极大的可能性，但大多数人正在把它当作痛苦的制造机器。时至今日甚至看到，无论出于什么原因，痛苦似乎演变流行。当有人谈论痛苦时，人们拍手叫好;当有人谈论快乐时，反而人们会嘲笑。
Even whenyou were children, this happened to you. Your parents were doing this to youunknowingly. Probably you are doing this to your children. If your children arejumping with joy and screaming, you will tell them to shut up. But if they sitin one corner, you will ask them what happened. From that time, they learn thatsuffering brings benefits. But whatever benefits you get, if you are suffering,what is the point? If you are joyful, and you do not get a damn thing – sowhat?
即便当你孩童时也在你身上发生过，你父母在不知不觉中对你这么做，也许你正对你的孩子这麽做，如果你的孩子开心时同时尖叫又跳跃，你会叫他们闭嘴。但是，如果他们坐在角落，你会问他们发生了什么事。从那时起，他们学到痛苦会带来好处。但是，无论你得到什么好处，如果你正在受苦，那有何意义呢？如果你快乐，却什麽没有得到─那又能怎样呢？
So do notromanticize your suffering – it is not a great thing. And you are doing ityourself. Whether you are miserable or joyful right now is entirely yourchoice. Other people can create comfortable or uncomfortable situations only onthe outside. Suffering is entirely yourmaking. Other people can create situations; they cannot make you or mesuffer.
所以不要将你的痛苦浪漫化——这不是一件好事。是自己做到无论你是痛苦还是快乐，此刻一切都是你的选择，他人只能在外在创造舒适或不舒服的情境，受苦完全是自己所选，其他人可以创造出情势;但他们不能让你我痛苦。
You are not anyone’s victim; you are a victimof your own making.
你不是任何人的受害者；你是自己制造的受害者。
Sufferingis your choice. You have heard the word “Buddha.” Most of you will think ofGautama, the Buddha, but Gautama is not the only Buddha. There have beenthousands before him and thousands after him, and still are. “Buddha” meansjust this: Bu means buddhi or “intellect,” dha means“one who is above.” One who is above his intellect is a Buddha. One who is inhis intellect, is a non-stop suffering human being. If something happens, theywill suffer; if nothing happens, they will suffer. They know how to makeeverything into suffering. If you were below the mind, you would not suffer somuch.
受苦是你的选择，曾经听说过'佛陀'这个词，你们大多数人会想到乔达摩——佛陀，但乔达摩并不是唯一的佛，在他之前有成千上万的人，在他之后也有成千上万的人，现在依旧如此。'佛陀'所指意思是：Bu的意思是智慧buddhi或'开悟'，dha的意思是'在之上的人'。高于才智的智者才是佛。一个受困自己智力之人，是不断受苦的人。如果发生某事他们会受苦;如果什么都不发生，他们也会受苦，他们知道如何做尽一切而受苦，如果你凌驾于心智之上，你就不会遭受那麽多的苦。
Othercreatures do not suffer as much as you. For them, if their physical needs aretaken care of, they are quite fine. If the stomach is full, they are good. Butyou are not like that – you suffer hunger one way; you suffer indigestionanother way. Please do not romanticize your suffering. You are not anyone’svictim; you are a victim of your own making. This may not sound verycompassionate to you, but if you want a solution, you must understand thesource of your suffering is you, and you alone. Other people can only createsituations. They may say or do something, but whether you suffer that or not isleft to you.
其他生物不像你那样受苦，对它们来说，如果他们的身体需要得到照顾，他们会好好休息。如果肚子饱餐一切都好，但你并非那样的—你受苦于饥饿，你也受苦于消化不良。请不要将你的痛苦浪漫化，你不是任何人的受害者，你是自己制造出的受害者，这听起来可能不太富有同情心，但如果你想要解决方案，你必须明白你的痛苦的根源是自己，其他人只能创造出情势。他们可能会说或做点什么，但不管你是否受苦，则由自己决定。
It islike you were going on the street, and someone called you names; let us saythey called you an idiot. You would boil within yourself, “Who is this fool whocalls me an idiot. He is a big idiot; he is…” whatever. At2:00 in the morning, you are still lying in your bed, twisting and turning,still thinking about this guy who called you an idiot. He said just one word andwent away, and it has such an impact on you. Then what he said must be true.Just about anyone can cause misery to you. And if none of them are there, youdo it to yourself. Please, stop this. There is no romance in misery. If you areenjoying a tragic life, then enjoy it; do not complain.
这就像你在街上走，有人叫你的名字;假定他们叫你白痴，你会在自己内在奔腾，'这个叫我白痴的傻瓜是谁，他是个大笨蛋;他是.....'。无论在凌晨2点，你还躺在床上，翻来复去，仍想着那个叫你白痴的家伙。他只说一句话就走了，对你产生如此大的影响，那他所说的一定是真的，任何人能为你带来痛苦，如果他们都不在，你做你自己。请就此停止！痛苦中没有浪漫，如果你正在享受悲惨的人生，那就享受它;不要抱怨。
Somepeople like romantic movies; some people like comedy; some people like horrormovies. If you like misery, do it, but you must enjoy it. People go to watch aShakespearean tragedy because they enjoy someone else’s suffering. If you likeyour own suffering, enjoy it – it is up to you, but do not create suffering andthink someone else is doing it to you. In today’s world, if someone is physically harming you, you know what to do. Do not think someone is mentally harming you. No one is mentally harming you. They are doing whatthey know best. You are harming yourself. Suppose I know only abuse. I willstand here and abuse you endlessly. The filth is in my mouth, not in yourmind.
有些人喜欢浪漫电影;有些人喜欢喜剧;有些人喜欢恐怖电影。如果你喜欢痛苦，就去做，但你必须享受它。人们去看莎士比亚的悲剧是因为他们享受别人的痛苦。如果你喜欢自己的痛苦，享受它——由你决定，但不要制造痛苦，认为别人正在对你这样做。在当今世界，如果有人身体上伤害你，你知道该怎么做。别以为有人精神上伤害你，并没有人如此，他们会做他们最擅长的事，你正伤害自己。假设我只知道辱骂，则我会站在这无休止地辱骂你，污秽出自我口，不在你的脑海里。
So do notget this victim syndrome. You are not a victim of anyone except yourself. It isentirely your own making. Until you see that, there is no way out of it. Thisis the most fundamental thing you need to see: Whatever you are right now andwhatever you are not, is fundamentally your responsibility. Please make thathappen.
所以不要得这种受害者综合症。除了你自己，你不是任何人的受害者，这完全是你自己导演的，直到你看到这点前没有出路，你必须要看到的最根本的事：无论此刻你是什么，也不论你不是什么，从根本上来说都是自己的责任，请做到这点。
