聽神談【關於人類的「情緒」】
情緒是「在運行移動的能量」 (energy in motion)。
你們可以掌管這能量(去學會如何使用這能量的開關,並搞懂情緒的本質、功能如何運作),讓這能量提升(pro-motion)或降低(de-motion)。
當你降低這能量——也就是,將它移到最低層時——你就產生了一種負面情緒。當你提升它——也就是,將它移到最高層——你就產生一種正面的情緒。
讓你的身體充滿活力的運動,是提升你的能量的一種方法。你真的加快了這「氣」的能量震動,使它轉為經由你表達出來的正面情緒。
靜觀 (Meditation)是提升「總是呈現在你身體裡的生命能量」的另一種方法。
運動和靜觀的結合是極具力量的。當這組合變成了你的靈性修煉的一部分時,你即創造出巨大成長的可能性。
運用這組合可提醒你:你能夠控制你的身體與情緒,所以,依你的選擇去體驗你的身體與情緒吧!對許多人來說——沒錯,對大多數的人而言——這是一項驚人的憶起。
情緒是「被你選擇」的經驗,而不是「你必須受制於它」的經驗 (Emotions are experiences that are chosen, not experiences to which you are subjected.) 。這並不是個大部分人都能懂的事。
摘自《與神合一》第18章
Emotion is, simply, energy in motion.
You can take this energy and give it a pro-motion, or a demotion.
When you demote this energy—that is, move it to the lowest level—you produce a negative emotion. When you promote it—that is, move it to the highest level—you produce a positive emotion.
Exhilarating exercise of your physical body is one way to promote, or raise up, your energy. You literally increase the vibration of this ki energy, which turns it into a positive emotion that is expressed through you.
Meditation is another way to raise the energy of Life that is always present in your body.
The combination of exercise and meditation is extremely powerful. When this combination becomes part of your spiritual discipline, you create possibilities for enormous growth.
Using this combination reminds you that you can control, and therefore experience as you choose, both your body and your emotions. For many—indeed, for most—this is a startling remembrance.
Emotions are experiences that are chosen, not experiences to which you are subjected. This is not something that is widely understood.
