Who Am I? Where Did I Come From?
ŚLOKA 1
Ṛishis proclaim that we are not our body, mind or emotions. We are divine souls on a wondrous journey. We came from God, live in God and are evolving into oneness with God. We are, in truth, the Truth we seek. Aum.§
BHĀSHYA
We are immortal souls living and growing in the great school of earthly experience in which we have lived many lives. Vedic ṛishis have given us courage by uttering the simple truth, “God is the Life of our life.” A great sage carried it further by saying there is one thing God cannot do: God cannot separate Himself from us. This is because God is our life. God is the life in the birds. God is the life in the fish. God is the life in the animals. Becoming aware of this Life energy in all that lives is becoming aware of God’s loving presence within us. We are the undying consciousness and energy flowing through all things. Deep inside we are perfect this very moment, and we have only to discover and live up to this perfection to be whole. Our energy and God’s energy are the same, ever coming out of the void. We are all beautiful children of God. Each day we should try to see the life energy in trees, birds, animals and people. When we do, we are seeing God Śiva in action. The Vedas affirm, “He who knows God as the Life of life, the Eye of the eye, the Ear of the ear, the Mind of the mind—he indeed comprehends fully the Cause of all causes.” Aum Namaḥ Śivāya.§
我是谁？我从哪里来？
LOKA 1
ishis 宣称我们不是我们的身体、思想或情感。我们是奇妙旅程中的神圣灵魂。我们来自上帝，生活在上帝之中，并且正在与上帝合而为一。事实上，我们就是我们所寻求的真理。aum§
BHĀSHYA
我们是不朽的灵魂，在我们经历过许多世的尘世经验的伟大学校中生活和成长。吠陀 ishis 通过说出简单的真理给了我们勇气：“上帝是我们生命的生命。”一位伟大的圣人进一步阐述了这一点，他说上帝不能做一件事：上帝不能将自己与我们分开。这是因为神是我们的生命。上帝是飞鸟中的生命。神是鱼里的生命。上帝是动物的生命。意识到所有生命中的这种生命能量，就是意识到上帝在我们心中的慈爱存在。我们是流经万物的不朽意识和能量。在内心深处，这一刻我们是完美的，我们只需要发现并实现这个完美就可以变得完整。我们的能量和上帝的能量是一样的，永远从虚空中出来。我们都是上帝美丽的儿女。每一天我们都应该努力去观察树木、鸟类、动物和人身上的生命能量。当我们这样做时，我们看到了上帝在行动。吠陀经肯定：“知道上帝是生命的生命、眼之眼、耳之耳、心之意的人——他确实完全理解一切因的因。” Aum Nama ivāya。§
