聽神談【關於「沉溺執著」與「偏好」】
如果你需要某一特定的結果才能快樂的話，你就是有「沉溺執著」(addiction)。
如果你只嚮往某種結果，你就是有「偏好」(preference)。
如果你完全沒有任何偏好，你就具備了「接受」(神的五種態度之一)。
你就達到了大師境界。
尼爾：設定一個人的意圖不就跟宣告一個人的偏好一樣？
完全不一樣。你可以「意圖」某件事的發生，而對它「沒有偏好」。
摘自《與神為友》第6章
If you require a certain result in order to be happy, you have an Addiction.
If you simply desire a certain result, you have a Preference.
If you have no Preference whatsoever, you have Acceptance.
You have achieved mastery.
Neale: But I have a question. Isn't setting one's intentions the same as announcing one's Preferences?
Not at all. You can intend for something to happen without preferring it to.
