一切思维必然被思维心所限定,而思维心总是困缚重重,从无自由。一旦思维发动,念头立即尾随而至。若用观念来指导行动,注定制造更多的混乱。明白了这一点,我们的行动能否摆脱理念束缚呢?是的,这就是爱之路。爱,不是理念,不是感官觉受,不是记忆,不是感觉常驻,不是自我保护的招术。只有明白了理念的发生机制,我们才能觉悟爱之路。那么,我们能不能舍弃其他方法,去觉悟爱之路?爱,是唯一的救赎,任何其他政治或宗教之路,都不能解决问题。这不是需要你反复思考并在生活中应用的理论,而是实实在在的现实。
当你心中有爱,还会理念丛生吗?不要接受我的话,你只需审视、细察、深入探究自心。人类试遍了各种道路,均找不到化解苦难的答案。或许政客们满口应承,所谓宗教组织也承诺未来的幸福,但我们至今没有获得幸福。如果我此刻饥肠辘辘,未来也就无关紧要。我们已经尝试过各种道路,唯有看穿理念之路并舍弃理念,我们才能觉悟爱之路,这就是真行。
——克里希那穆提《生命书:365观心日课》(The Book of Life: Daily Meditations with Krishnamurti)
译按:
thinker与thought,即佛家的“能思”与“所思”,之前注解过,但枯燥不易解,故折衷如下:
thinker,译作“能思之心、思维心”,就是每个人大脑里那个喋喋不休,妄念重生,“百般需索,千般计较”的强迫性人格。注意,thinker不是思想家、思想者,而是每个人内在的那个妄念丛生的偏执心、思维心。
thouht,译作“所思之念、心念、执念”,就是上述强迫性人格所孽生的丛丛妄念。thouht若译为“思想”,就容易引发歧义。
克氏著作中还有其他类似的“能所”二元概念对,并认为二者实为一体,如,The observer is the observed, the experiencer is the experience. 等等。
Acting Without Idea Is the Way of Love
Thought must always be limited by the thinker who is conditioned; the thinker is always conditioned and is never free; if thought occurs, immediately idea follows. Idea in order to act is bound to create more confusion. Knowing all this, is it possible to act without idea? Yes, it is the way of love. Love is not an idea; it is not a sensation; it is not a memory; it is not a feeling of postponement, a self-protective device. We can only be aware of the way of love when we understand the whole process of idea. Now, is it possible to abandon the other ways and know the way of love, which is the only redemption? No other way, political or religious, will solve the problem. This is not a theory which you will have to think over and adopt in your life; it must be actual …
… When you love, is there idea? Do not accept it; just look at it, examine it, go into it profoundly; because every other way we have tried, and there is no answer to misery. Politicians may promise it; the so-called religious organizations may promise future happiness; but we have not got it now, and the future is relatively unimportant when I am hungry. We have tried every other way; and we can only know the way of love if we know the way of idea and abandon idea, which is to act.
