萨古鲁:瑜伽使你与万物相校准
Question: Sadhguru, you said you started practicing hatha yoga as a boy. Did this include Surya Kriya? And if yes, what was your experience?
问:Sadhguru(萨古鲁),你说当你还是一个小男孩时就开始就练习哈他瑜伽了。这包括Surya Kriya(苏里亚克里亚)吗?如果包括,你当时的体验是什么?
Sadhguru: When I was a young boy, it used to be a project to wake me up in the morning. We had to leave for school at 8:30, so, from 6:30, my family would begin the effort. First, both my elder sisters would try their best. I would sleep through it. Then they would bring cold water and sprinkle it on my face – again I would sleep. Then my mother would come and make me sit up. She would say, “Get off the cot and come now.” “Yes, yes.” As soon as she would leave, I was gone again.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):当我还是个男孩时,早上叫我起床可是个大工程。我们必须在08:30出发去学校,因此,从06:30开始,我们全家人就要开始这项工程。首先,我两个姐姐会尽她们最大的努力,我只管睡我的。然后他们会拿来凉水,洒在我脸上——我还是继续睡。然后我母亲会过来,设法让我坐起来。她会说,“现在赶紧从被窝里起来。”“好的,好的。”她离开房间后,我又会睡着。
Fundamentally, I did Surya Kriya, but in a completely different way than the way you are doing it right now.
从根本上看,我做Surya Kriya,但和你们现在做的方式完全不同。
Then they got me out of bed and took me near the bathroom to wait for my turn. There were only two bathrooms in the house. Only one was an actual bathing place, the other was a water closet. All four of us siblings had to go to school, and my father had to go to the hospital, so there was a certain time usage allowed in the bathroom. My mother put paste on the toothbrush and gave it to me. I stuck it in my mouth and fell asleep. Then my turn to go into the bathroom came, and I would go inside, lie down on the floor and again fall asleep. If no one woke me up, I would sleep till twelve or one o’clock. I would get up only if I got extremely hungry. It is not that I was pretending – I was just sleepy. When I was active, I was super-active. Otherwise, when I slept, I was gone.
接着他们会把我从床上拉起来,带我到洗手间旁边让我等。房子里只有两个洗手间。只有一个是可以洗澡的,另一个是厕所。我们四个兄弟姐妹都要去学校,我父亲要去医院,因此每个人使用洗手间的时间都是有限的。我母亲给牙刷挤上牙膏,塞到我手里。我把它塞进嘴里然后睡着了。轮到我去洗手间的时候,我会进去,躺在地板上,再一次睡着。如果没有人把我叫醒,我会一直睡到十二点或一点。只有当我饿极了,才会起来。我不是在装睡——我只是很困。当我活跃时,我是超级活跃的。否则的话,当我睡觉时,就会不省人事。
Then I started practicing yoga. Fundamentally, I did Surya Kriya, but in a completely different way than the way you are doing it right now. In about six to eight months of practice, no matter where I was, around 3:30 or 3:40 am, I was always up. I just had to wake up – there was no question about it. My sleep quota started shrinking. By the time I was thirteen or fourteen years of age, I was always up before everyone else.
然后我开始练习瑜伽。从根本上看,我做Surya Kriya(苏利亚克里亚),但和你们现在做的方式完全不同。在练习六到八个月后,无论我在哪里,每天早上3:30或3:40左右,我总是会醒来。我就是得醒来——这毫无疑问。我需要的睡眠时间开始减少。到十三、四岁时,我总是比其他人都起得早。
Brahma Muhurta and the Sun
Brahma Muhurta与太阳
Before the sun begins to come up on the horizon, at approximately 3:20 to 4:00 a.m., the sun’s energy starts reaching us. Light will not yet come, but the solar energy significantly rises on the planet at that time. In the night, the solar energy actually goes down well before sunset. In different parts of the world, the sun sets at different times, also depending on the time of the year. As you get closer to the equator, the sunset is somewhere between 6:00 and 6:30 p.m.
在太阳从地平线升起前,大约在早上3:20到4:00这个时间段,太阳的能量开始触碰到我们。光还没有出来,但太阳的能量在这个时候开始在这个星球上大幅升起。晚上,太阳的能量实际上在日落前就下降了。在地球的不同地方,日落时间会有所不同,同时它也随季节变化。当你越靠近赤道时,日落通常会发生在晚上6:00到6:30之间。
As far as we are concerned, in this solar system, the fundamental source of our energy and creation is the sun.
就我们而言,在这个太阳系中,我们能量和创造最根本的源头就是太阳。
In India, let us say the sun is setting at around six o’clock. Somewhere around 5:20 p.m., the solar energies start dwindling away. Light is still seen, but the energy will recede. Because of the turning of the planet, the sun is moving away from us and energy begins to withdraw. It is that withdrawal of energy that people experience as a kind of ethereal happening. If you really pay attention to the sunset, you will see there is a transcendent nature to it because what was there and at full blast around noon is suddenly gone. It almost takes your breath away.
在印度,假设日落发生在6点左右。5:20分左右,太阳的能量就会开始减弱了。你仍可以看到光,但能量已经开始减弱了。因为地球的转动,太阳离我们越来越远,能量开始撤离。人们所体验到那种缥缈感其实就是能量的撤离。如果你真的有注意观察日落,你会感觉到某种超然的本质,因为白天一直都在、中午还炽热着的太阳,突然间就消失了。它几乎带走你的呼吸。
In the morning, somewhere from 3:20 a.m. onwards, the solar energy begins to rise. We call this brahma muhurta. Brahman is an abstract source of creation. As far as we are concerned, in this solar system, the fundamental source of our energy and creation is the sun. Trillions of chemical reactions that are being conducted every second in your body would not happen without solar power. The moment the brahma muhurta starts, your body wakes up by itself in a deep way within yourself. Just in six to eight months of practice of Surya Kriya, I started waking up ahead of everyone else. My family could not believe that this guy is actually waking up!
在早上,大概3:20之后,太阳的能量开始升起。我们把这叫做Brahma Muhurta。Brahma是抽象的造物源头。就我们而言,在这个太阳系中,我们能量和创造最根本的源头就是太阳。没有太阳能,每秒数万亿在你体内发生的化学反应就不会存在。当Brahma Muhurta开始时,在你内在很深的层面,身体自己开始苏醒。在练习Surya Kriya(苏利亚克里亚)6到8个月后,我开始比其他所有人都起得早。我家里人无法相信这个家伙真的醒来了!
What Kriyas Are Ultimately About
Kriyas (克里亚)终极上意味着什么
Surya Kriya just set me on. It was not the exercise. It is just that you get in tune with that energy, and suddenly everything is on. This is what kriyas are about. A kriya is not about driving you in some direction – it is about getting into proper alignment with everything. When everything is in alignment, it is so smooth, there is no friction. Where there is no friction, there is no wear and tear, no stress. Where there is no friction, it can go on incessantly. Where there is friction, it needs more breaks.
Surya Kriya(苏利亚克里亚)就那样把我点燃。这并不是因为这个练习本身。你只是与那股能量同频了,突然间一切都点燃了。这就是Kriya(克里亚)的目的。Kriya不是为了将你带往某个方向——它是关于与万物恰当的校准。当与一切都校准时,它是那样的流畅,没有摩擦。没有摩擦,就不会有磨损,不会有压力。没有摩擦,就可以一直不间断地向前。有摩擦的地方,则需要更多的休息。
A kriya is not about driving you in some direction – it is about getting into proper alignment with everything.
Kriya不是为了将你带往某个方向——它是关于与万物恰当地校准。
The process of yoga is just this – on many levels – to create an alignment with the rest of the existence. The only way you will know yoga is when you are in perfect alignment. You do not have to create an alignment with something outside. If you come into perfect alignment with your own system, naturally, there will be a perfect alignment with everything. When this happens, everything will happen according to the natural order.
瑜伽的过程就是这样——从很多层面上——创造与其他存在的校准状态。只有当你处于完美的校准状态时,你才会真正知晓瑜伽。你不需要将自己与外界相校准。如果你与自己的系统得到完美的校准,那么自然而然,你与万物都会处于完美的校准中。当这个发生时,一切都会依循自然秩序而发生。
There will be no struggle about how much to eat, how many calories to consume, how much to exercise, what to do – all this nonsense will disappear. You will just know what to do with your life, without even a thought, because the necessary intelligence is invested in this life. It is the same intelligence that manufactures your body and your brains from within.
你将不再纠结于该吃多少,摄入多少卡路里,该运动多久,该做什么——所有这些都会消失。你就是会知道在生命中要做什么,甚至不需要一丁点思考,因为所需的智慧已经注入了这个生命中。是同样的智慧从内在制造了你的身体和大脑。
Love&Grace,
Sadhguru
