生命沒有目標,沒有目的。你已經是你在找尋的了

今早看到的一篇奧修文章,喜歡看奧修的文章,除了有很深的洞見外,閲讀他的文章後仿佛有些東西在内在醖釀發酵,有種說不出的喜悅感。

記得Swamiji(我們通常這樣稱呼師父)常常也在演説中提到生命只有臣服,不要帶著任何期待(包括靜心)。

Swamiji常常也叮嚀我們要記得我們是純靈,我們是聖靈(I'm a pure soul,I'm a holy soul),讓這個成為根本咒
  
我喜歡以下的一句話,要常常記住這點

在一開始它就只是“好像”,但是漸漸地,你會意識到這個“好像”是唯一的真相。在一開始它可能只是演戲。很快你就會明白,這個演戲才是唯一的真相。

加油!加油!我們一起從完美走到完美。

問題1:你說生命沒有目標,沒有目的。然而我們在這裏,都把開悟作為我們的目標。請開示。

如果你在這裏,把開悟作為你的目標,你就無法在這裏。或許你身體會在這裏,但是你無法和我在一起。目標是在未來的,而我在這裏!而目標導向的頭腦註定在未來裏——我們永遠無法相遇。

我知道你在這裏想達成某些東西——而這就是為什麽你在錯過它。我在這裏是為了說服你丟掉那個要達成的想法——無論你想達成什麽:開悟、莫克夏,涅槃,神,都包含其中。如果你丟掉這個目標導向的頭腦——只有目標導向的頭腦,沒有其他類型的頭腦——如果你丟掉它,你就開悟了。

開悟不是一場探尋,它是一個了悟。它不是一個目標!它是生命的本然。

就生命本身,它是開悟的。它不需要任何的添加和改進。生命是完美的。它不是從不完美到完美,它是從完美到完美。

你在這裏,想要達成某些東西。這是一個障礙。丟掉這個障礙。就只是在這裏!

忘掉所有的目的,生命無法有任何目的。生命就是目的,它怎麽可能會有其他的目的?否則你就會陷入無止境的倒退:接著那個目的就會帶來另一個目的,這個目的又帶來另一個……生命沒有目的,這就是為什麽它這麽美。

印度人把它叫做“裏拉”(leela),一場遊嬉(play)。在西方,現在“遊戲”(game)這個詞已經變得極為重要了;兩三年間,書名裏有“遊戲”(game)字眼的書就出版發行了成百上千本:大師級遊戲,終極遊戲,人們愛玩的遊戲,等等。但是,“遊戲”(game)和“遊嬉”(play)是有區別的。印度人把生命叫做“遊嬉”而非“遊戲”,因為甚至一場遊戲都有一個目的:要達成某個結果,要贏得勝利,必須打敗對手……那麽遊嬉就變成了遊戲;那麽它就變得嚴肅了。

成人玩遊戲,而孩子們只是玩耍、遊嬉。而這個行為本身就足夠了。它有一個固有的結尾,其中沒有目標。生命是一個“裏拉”,一場遊嬉,一旦你準備好去遊嬉,你就開悟了。

試著從另一個層面來了解這一點。你已經是你在試圖成為的人了。你越試圖去成為,你就越是會錯過。放下所有的努力,就只是接納你自己,你就只是那樣——突然地它就在那裏了!它一直都在那裏,但是你是如此嚴肅的探尋著,這是你錯過它唯一的原因所在。

你在這裏想達成某些東西:開悟,三摩地,三托歷——或者其他東西。對我而言,所有這些詞都是沒有意義的,因為它們給了你一條去欲求的新線路。它們再度開啟了欲望之門。

在世界上你欲求金錢、權力、威望,接著你受夠了,你看到這一切都是垃圾——即便你得到,你也會感到挫敗,如果你得不到,你也會挫敗。然後你開始覺得這一切都毫無意義。現在突然地你開始玩新的遊戲了:開悟,靜心,瑜伽,神,另一個世界,彼岸!頭腦又舒服了;一個新的欲望的世界已經敞開了;現在你要追求這些目標。

而靜心比金錢更難以捉摸。至少這個世界是實在的;彼岸,那個世界,另一個世界(西方極樂世界),完全是幻想。現在你掉進了一個更深的坑裏。對於第一個,你能意識到它是無用的,而對於第二個,你需要經歷數百萬的輪回才能明白,這個也是無用的。

當一個人開始發現,所有的目標都是無用的——毫無例外,一切目標都是無用的,那麽就沒有什麽要去做的,一個人只要“存在”(be)就夠了。他放松了,他是如此的放松,因為沒有什麽要去做的,就不會帶來任何的緊張。突然地你的界限融化了,就像雪在旭日下融化一樣。不需要做任何事,你消失了,自我消失了。不需要做任何事,不需要成為什麽,不需要達成什麽,你會是誰呢?所有的認同都蒸發了。這就是開悟。

接著你開始了一個全然不同的生活方式。你開始遊嬉,你開始活生生的,一個片刻接著一個片刻的活著,沒有任何地方要去——無論生命給你什麽,你都帶著深深的感恩接受。優雅來到你身上。這就是我所謂的:成為神。一旦你開始遊嬉,活在當下,你就變成了神。

我在這裏是為了說服你,你已經是神了。你在這裏或許是想變成神——這是你的旅程,我不關心。我知道我在這裏是為了什麽:就是說服你,再看看你自己的臉;往內探尋,而不是往外找,找那些根本就不存在的東西。

生命是一個沒有目的的遊嬉,一場無限力量的遊嬉
——如果你沒有要成就和達成什麽的頭腦,它就是美的,如果你帶著要變成什麽、成為什麽人、做些什麽的野心,它就是醜陋的,

放松。徹底放下未來。只有當下/這個片刻存在,當下即是永恒。就只有這個生命而已,不要去想彼岸。

幾天前,我有告訴你們一個中國寓言,一個人從河流的中央回來了。為何他從河流的“中央”回來呢?因為沒有彼岸,只有此岸。為何他開始大笑呢?因為他突然意識到他就是佛,他就是他一直在找尋的佛。

禪師們教導他們的弟子:如果你們在靜心時遇到佛——立刻把他殺了。一刻也不要猶豫——立刻把他殺了!否則他會把你引入歧路。

他們是對的。當你在靜心時,克裏希那/奎師那會出現,吹著他的笛子,這麽的美……你又在做夢了,你再度陷入夢和欲望之中。耶穌來了,你被黏在頭腦的網裏;它是一個蜘蛛網。佛陀來了,你忘了你自己。

所以禪師說:立刻把佛殺了。把路清幹凈。不要讓任何人在那裏;就是這樣,不要讓任何目標在那裏;就只是全然,單獨——在你絕對的純粹裏。這就是開悟。

我應該重復它,因為我知道你們會一再又一再的忘記:你已經是你在找尋的了。讓這個成為根本咒。如果你能明白這個咒語,你就明白了一切。

試一試。目標——有太多世,你給了它們目標。現在試著一個片刻接著一個片刻的活,就好像沒有未來。在一開始它就只是“好像”,但是漸漸地,你會意識到這個“好像”是唯一的真相。在一開始它可能只是演戲。很快你就會明白,這個演戲才是唯一的真相。

你是帶著一個目標而來的,但我不會允許你繼續帶著目標。如果你不逃避我,那個目標註定會滑落。再晃蕩稍久一點,那個目標就註定會滑落。要麽我跟你在這裏,要麽目標跟你:你必須選擇。

附:我有一些奧修演講視頻(有些有單獨的中文字幕文件),想找一位懂視頻字幕加工的朋友,把字幕合成進視頻裏。如果你想做,請加我微信,13738828533



Question 1:
YOU HAVE SAID THAT THERE ARE NO GOALS IN LIFE, NO PURPOSE. AND YET WE ARE ALL HERE WITH ENLIGHTENMENT AS OUR GOAL. PLEASE SPEAK ON THIS.

If you are here with enlightenment as your goal you cannot be here. Physically you may appear to be here but you cannot be with me. The goal is in the future, I am here! And a mind which is goal oriented is bound to be in the future - we will never meet.
I know you are here to attain something - that's why you are missing it. I am here to persuade you to drop the very idea of attaining anything whatsoever: enlightenment, moksha, nirvana, God, included. If you drop this goal oriented mind - and there are none but goal-oriented minds, there is no other mind - if you drop it, you are enlightened.
Enlightenment is not a search, it is a realization. It is not a goal! It is the very nature of life itself.
As life is, it is enlightened. It needs nothing to be added to it, to improve it. Life is perfect. It is not moving from imperfection to perfection, it is moving from perfection to perfection.
You are here to attain something. That is functioning as a barrier. Drop that barrier. Just be here!
Forget about any purpose, life cannot have any purpose. Life is the purpose, how can it have any other purpose? Otherwise you will be in an infinite regress: then that purpose will have another purpose, then that other purpose will have another purpose.... Life has no purpose, and that's why it is so beautiful.
Hindus have called it LEELA, a play. It is not even a game. Now in the West the word GAME has become very very important; hundreds of books have been published within two, three years with GAME in the title: THE MASTER GAME, THE ULTIMATE GAME, GAMES PEOPLE PLAY, and so on and so forth. But there is a difference between game and play. Hindus have called life PLAY not a game, because even a game has something as a purpose: a result to be attained, victory to be achieved, the opponent has to be conquered.... Then a play becomes a game; then it becomes serious.
Grownups play games, children only play. Just the very activity is enough unto itself. It has an intrinsic end, there is no goal added to it. Life is a LEELA, it is a play, and the moment you are ready to play, you are enlightened.
Try to understand from some other dimension. You are already that which you are trying to be. The more you try, the more you will miss. You leave all effort, you simply accept yourself, you just be that - suddenly it is there! It has always been there but you were seeking so seriously, and that was the only cause for missing it.
You are here to attain something: enlightenment, samadhi, satori - or something. To me all those words are nonsense, because they give you again a new line of desiring. They again open a door of desire.
In the world you desire money, power, prestige; then you get fed up with it, then you see the whole thing is just rubbish - even if you get it you are defeated, if you don't get it you are defeated. Then you come to feel that this whole thing is nonsense. Now suddenly you start playing new games: enlightenment, meditation, yoga, God, the other world, the other shore! Again the mind is at ease; a new world of desire has opened; now you will be after these goals.
And money is not so elusive as meditation. This world at least is solid; that shore, that world, the other world, is absolutely fantasy. Now you are in a deeper ditch than before. With the first you could realize that it is useless, with the second now it will take millions of lives to realize that this too is useless.
When a person comes to discover that all goals are useless - with no exception all goals are useless, then there is nothing to do, one just has to BE. One relaxes, one relaxes so totally because there is nothing to do that there is no tension. Suddenly your boundaries melt like snow melting in the morning sun. With nothing to do you disappear, the ego disappears. With nothing to do, nothing to be, nothing to achieve, who will you be? The whole identity evaporates. This is enlightenment.
Then you start a totally different way of life. You start being playful, you start being alive moment to moment with nowhere to go - whatsoever the life gives, you accept it with deep gratitude. Grace happens to you. This is what I call: to become a god. The moment you start playing, living in the moment, you have become a god.
I am here to persuade you that you are already gods. You may be here to become gods - that's your trip, I'm not concerned with it. I know what I am here for: just to persuade you to look at your own face once again; to search within and not to go without, searching for something which doesn't exist.
Life is a purposeless play, a play of infinite forces - beautiful if you don't have an achiever's mind, ugly if you have ambition to become something, to be something, to do something.
Relax. Drop the future completely. Only this moment exists, and this moment is eternity. And this life only is all that is there, don't think of the other shore.
Just the other day I was telling you the Chinese allegory of the man who returned from the middle of the river. Why did he return from the MIDDLE of the river? Because there is no other shore, this is the only shore. And why did he start laughing? Because he suddenly realized he himself is the Buddha whom he has been seeking.
Zen Masters teach their disciples that: if while meditating some day you come across Buddha - kill him immediately. Don't spare a single moment - kill him immediately! Otherwise he will lead you astray.
They are right. While you are meditating Krishna comes with his flute, it is so beautiful.... Again you are dreaming, again you are caught in dream and desire. And Jesus comes, and you are caught in the web of the mind; it is a spider's web. And then Buddha comes, and you forget yourself.
So Zen Masters say: Kill the Buddha immediately. Clear the way. Don't allow anybody else to be there; that is, don't allow any goal to be there; just be total, alone - in your absolute purity. This is enlightenment.
I should repeat it, because I know you will forget and forget and forget: you are already that which you are seeking. Let this be the basic mantra. If you can understand this mantra, you have understood all.
Give it a try. Goals - too many lives you have already given to them. Now try to live moment to moment, as if there is no future. In the beginning it will be only AS IF, but by and by you will become aware that that AS IF is the only reality. In the beginning it may be just like acting. Soon you will realize that this acting is the only reality.
You have come with a goal but I won't allow you to remain with a goal. If you don't escape me the goal is bound to drop. Just hang around a little more and the goal is bound to drop. Either I can be here with you or the goal can: you have to choose.
