人体的三条基础气脉

Sadhguru speaks about the three fundamental nadis or energy pathways in the system, the Ida, Pingala and Sushumna. 

这篇文章中，萨古鲁谈到人体系统中的三条基础气脉，即能量通道。这三条基础气脉分别是：Ida（左脉）、Pingala（右脉）和Sushumna（中脉）。

Sadhguru: Within the spine, if you know its physical construction, you will know there are two holes on either side of the spine which are like conduit pipes for all the nerves to pass. This is the Ida and the Pingala, the left and the right channels. 

Sadhguru（萨古鲁）：如果你了解生理构造的话，你就会知道，在脊柱两侧有两个凹陷处，就像是两条管道，所有神经都从这里穿过。它们就是Ida（左脉）和Pingala（右脉）——左侧通道和右侧通道。

In the Pranamayakosha or the energy body, there are 72,000 nadis. The 72,000 nadis spring from three basic nadis – the left, the right and the central – the Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna. The word “nadi” does not mean nerve. Nadis are pathways or channels of prana in the system. These 72,000 nadis don’t have a physical manifestation. In the sense, if you cut the body and look in, you will not find them. But as you become more aware, you will notice the energy is not moving at random, it is moving in established pathways. There are 72,000 different ways in which the energy or prana moves. 

在Pranamayakosha（能量身）内，有72000条nadi（气脉）。这72000条气脉来自三条基础气脉，这三条基础气脉是：Ida（左脉）、Pingala （右脉）和Sushumna（中脉）。“nadi”指的不是神经。气脉是人体系统中Prana（能量）的通路或通道。这72000条气脉不是以物理形式存在的。因此，如果你把身体切开，你在身体内是看不到这些气脉的。但是如果你的觉知提升，你会注意到你体内的能量不是在随意流动，而是沿着构建好的通道在运行。能量运行的通路一共有72000条。

The Ida and Pingala represent the basic duality in the existence. It is this duality which we traditionally personify as Shiva and Shakti. Or you can simply call it masculine and feminine, or it can be the logical and the intuitive aspect of you. It is based on this that life is created. Without these two dualities, life wouldn’t exist as it does right now. In the beginning, everything is primordial, there is no duality. But once creation happens, there is duality. 

左脉和右脉代表了存在的二元性。传统上，我们把这种二元性拟人化为Shiva和Shakti。或者简单点，你可以称之为阳性和阴性，或你的逻辑和直觉面向。正是基于这种二元性，生命才被创造出来。没有二元性，生命就不会以它此刻的样子而存在。最初，一切都是原始混沌的，不存在二元性。但是一旦有了创造，就有了二元性。

When I say masculine and feminine, I am not talking in terms of sex – about being male or female – but in terms of certain qualities in nature. Certain qualities in nature have been identified as masculine. Certain other qualities have been identified as feminine. You may be a man, but if your Ida is more pronounced, the feminine may be dominant in you. You may be a woman, but if your Pingala is more pronounced, the masculine may be dominant in you. 

我说的阳性和阴性，不是指性别上的——不是说男性或者女性——而是自然存在中的特定性质。有些性质被归类为阳性，其它性质就被归类为阴性。你是一个男人，但是如果你的左脉更强一点，那么你内在的阴性气质就居于主导地位。你是个女人，但是如果你的右脉更强一点，那么你内在的阳性就居主导。

Bringing a balance between the Ida and Pingala will make you effective in the world, it will make you handle life aspects well. Most people live and die in Ida and Pingala; Sushumna, the central space, remains dormant. But Sushumna is the most significant aspect of human physiology. Only when energies enter into Sushumna, life really begins. 

实现左脉和右脉之间的平衡，会让你更加高效，让你能更好地把控生活的各个面向。大多数人从生到死都只有左脉和右脉是活跃的，而中脉始终处于休眠状态。但中脉是人体生理中最重要的面向。只有当能量进入中脉，生命才会真正开始。

Vairagya（超越颜色的）

Fundamentally, Sushumna is attribute-less, it has no quality of its own. It is like empty space. If there is empty space, you can create anything you want. Once energies enter into Sushumna, we say you attain to Vairagya. “Raga,” means color. “Vairag,” means no color, you have become transparent. If you have become transparent, if what is behind you is red, you turn red too. If what is behind you is blue, you turn blue too. If what is behind you is yellow, you turn yellow too. You are unprejudiced. Wherever you are, you become a part of that, but nothing sticks to you. Only if you are like this, only if you are in a state of Vairag, then you will dare to explore all dimensions of life when you live here. 

根本上，中脉是没有属性的，它自身没有特性。它就像是空无一物的空间。如果有空无一物的空间，你就能在里面创造你想要的任何东西。一旦能量进入中脉，你就达到了Vairagya。“raga”的意思是颜色，“Vairag”的意思是没有颜色，你变得透明了。如果你变得透明，那么如果你身后的东西是红色的，你也会变成红色的。如果你身后的东西是蓝色的，你也会变成蓝色的。如果你身后的东西是黄色的，你也会变成黄色的。你就是不偏不倚的。无论你身处何地，你都能成为周围的一部分，但是又不会粘附上任何东西。只有当你成为这个样子时，只有当你进入Vairag状态时，你才会敢于探索生命的所有维度。

Right now, you are reasonably balanced, but if for some reason the outside situation goes crazy, you will also go crazy in reaction to that because that is the nature of Ida and Pingala. It is reactive to what is outside. But once the energies enter into Sushumna, you attain to a new kind of balance, an inner balance where whatever happens outside, there is a certain space within you which never gets disturbed, which is never in any kind of turmoil, which cannot be touched by the outside situations. Only if you create this stable situation within yourself, you will dare to scale the peaks of consciousness. 

现在，你的左脉和右脉还算平衡，但如果由于某些原因，外部情形失控了，你也会受到影响而失控，因为这就是左脉和右脉的天性。左脉和右脉是受外界影响的。但是一旦能量进入到了中脉，你就能达到一种新的平衡，无论外在世界发生了什么，你都能保持内在平衡。你的内在有一个空间，这个空间永远不会受到任何的干扰，永远不会有任何混乱或受外界情形的影响。只要内在创造了这种稳定的平衡状态，你就会敢于攀登意识的巅峰。
