你的自我是不是你的朋友

你的自我是不是你的朋友。这是你的问题的来源。

停止专注于你自己的需要和剥离其所有在你日常生活中的重要性自我允许你获得难以置信的内在自由。这允许你实现方法，每一个人和每一个情况自然缓解，仁爱，坚韧，和宁静。

不期望的增益和无损失的恐惧，你是自由的给予和接受。你不再需要思考，说话，或者做一个自私的方式。

当你活在自我的狭小天地，你倾向于只关注自己。即使是轻微的挫折沮丧和气馁。真正的幸福离你因为你痴迷于你的成功，你的失败，你的希望，和你的焦虑。

比如说，自我的狭小的世界就像一杯水，如果把一把盐投掷到水里就变得不能饮用。如果，在另一方面，你打破自我的壁垒，心变得一个巨大的湖，那把盐对它的味道就没有影响。

水代表你的真正本质。如果我们不添加盐或毒药将保持清晰，纯提供活给给自己和他人的源。如果你已经从过去的行为在你的水中杂质，习惯或经验，使自己摆脱他们的唯一方法是通过添加更多的水。

祝你一切顺利，

—————— English Translation ——————

Your ego is not your friend. It is the source of most of your problems.

Ceasing to fixate on your own needs and stripping the ego of all its importance in your daily life allows you to gain incredible inner freedom. Achieving this allows you to approach every person and every situation with natural ease, benevolence, fortitude, and serenity.

With no expectation of gain and no fear of loss, you are free to give and to receive. You no longer have the need to think, speak, or act in a selfish way.

When you live inside the cramped universe of the ego, you have a tendency to be concerned exclusively with yourself. Even minor setbacks upset and discourage you. True happiness eludes you because you are obsessed with your success, your failure, your hopes, and your anxieties.

For example, the narrow world of the self is like a glass of water into which a handful of salt is thrown— the water becomes undrinkable . If, on the other hand, you break the barriers of the self, the mind becomes a vast lake, and that same handful of salt will have no affect on its taste.

The water represents your true essence. If we don’t add salt or poison it will remain clear, pure and provide a source of live-giving sustenance to ourselves and others. If you do have impurities in your water from past actions, habits or experiences, the only way to rid yourself of them is by adding more water.

All the best,

James
