这需要深度的洞察与探索。不要赞同我,你应潜心观照,粉碎自己的思维,发现这一切的真与伪。
知识即已知,知识能带来变化吗?如果要建桥梁,我的确必须具备相关知识;但我怎么知道心灵变向何方呢?如果我知道变作什么样子,那就不是真正的变化了,这样的知识反而会阻碍真正的变化,因为它已经变成博取满足感的工具。只要内心还有一个自我中心在追逐满足、酬报或安全感,就根本不会产生真正的变化。
我们的一切努力都发自这个追逐奖励、惩罚、成功与收益的自我中心。那是我们心之所系,如果能帮助我欲望成真,我才会改变,但这根本不是真正的变化。所以,如果希望心灵进入根本性的、深刻的变化与革新状态,那么你必须摆脱一切已知,然后心灵才能回归寂静,唯有这样的心灵才能经历根本性的转变——这是不可或缺的心灵转化。
——克里希那穆提《生命书:365观心日课》(The Book of Life: Daily Meditations with Krishnamurti)
Knowledge Is a Detriment to Chang
This requires a great deal of insight, inquiry. Don’t agree with me, but go into it, meditate, tear your mind apart to find out the truth or the falseness of all this.
Does knowledge, which is the known, bring about change? I must have knowledge to build a bridge; but must my mind know towards what it is changing? Surely, if I know what the state of the mind will be when it is changed, it is no longer change. Such knowledge is a detriment to change because it becomes a means of satisfaction, and as long as there is a center seeking satisfaction, reward, or security, there is no change at all.
And all our efforts are based on that center of reward, punishment, success, gain, are they not? That is all most of us are concerned with, and if it will help us get what we want, we will change; but such change is no change at all. So the mind that wishes to be fundamentally, deeply, in a state of change, in a state of revolution, must be free from the known. Then the mind becomes astonishingly still, and only such a mind will experience the radical transformation that is so necessary.
