萨古鲁：保持自己和周围环境干净的重要性
（视频：为什么将你的衣服叠整齐如此重要？）
As a child, keeping yourself and your surroundings clean was likely a requirement placed on you by parents and other adults. But beyond these societal expectations, can keeping a clean house and environment have a deeper impact on your spiritual development? Sadhguru discusses the significance of keeping clean.
当你还是孩子时，保持自己和周围环境的干净很可能是父母和其他成年人对你的要求。但是除了这些社会的期待，保持整洁的房子和环境，对你灵性的成长有更深层的影响吗？萨古鲁讨论了保持干净的重要性。
Sadhguru: Shaucha, or cleanliness, is an important aspect of one’s spiritual development. Cleanliness is not just about the body. It is also about our surroundings. Everything that we perceive through our sense organs can either create filth or wellbeing within ourselves.
Sadhguru（萨古鲁）：Shaucha，或干净，是灵性成长的一个重要方面。干净不仅仅是身体的问题。它也包括你周围的环境。我们通过感官觉察到的一切都可以在我们自己内在创造污秽或安康。
The kind of forms we build, the kind of forms we hold around us and the kind of structures we live in have a phenomenal impact on everything that we are.
我们所建立的形态，我们身边事物的形态以及我们所处环境的结构，对于我们所是的一切都有着非凡的影响。
Whatever we perceive, if it is pleasant upon our senses, we experience it one way. If it is unpleasant upon our senses, that becomes filth in our experience. If our surroundings are not clean, or in other words, if our surroundings are not pleasant upon our senses, then the images that we create in our mind, the projections that happen upon the seat of our experience turn unpleasant. When you create unpleasantness like this, going into blissful states of experience and consciously generating the nature of your experience becomes difficult.
无论我们感知什么，如果它令我们的感官愉快，我们以一种方式体验它。如果它令我们的感官不愉快，它在我们体验中就成了污秽。如果我们周围的环境不干净，或者换句话说，如果我们周围环境让我们的感官产生不愉悦感，那么我们脑海中产生的形象，基于我们体验的投射也会变得不愉快。当你像这样制造不愉快时，要想进入喜悦的状态并有意识地创造你的体验就变得困难了。
Whether you are miserable or joyful is determined essentially by what you are doing within yourself. A spiritual process essentially means everything that you are, happens consciously – your experience of life is determined by you. If this has to happen, it is important that our sense organs do not perceive something as unpleasant.
你是痛苦还是快乐，根本上是由你在自己内在做了什么来决定的。灵性修持，本质上是指你所是的一切都是有意识地发生着——你的生命体验是由你决定的。如果这要发生，重要的是我们的感官不会体验到任何的不愉快。
As you make your bed…
当你整理床铺时......
I am sure that in every culture, you have been told at some point – if not by your parents, at least by your grandparents – about how to keep your clothes and bedclothes. In India in particular, they say that if you leave your bed clothes crumpled and unfolded, ghosts will come and gather. When you sleep, they will sleep with you and trouble you. I think in English there is a saying, “As you make your bed, so shall you lie upon it.” This is essentially about the forms around you. Today, scientists tell us that the whole existence is just one energy manifesting itself in a million different ways. As energy has generated forms, forms can in turn generate energy. And every form around you is generating a certain type of energy.
我相信在每种文化中，都会有人告诉过你——如果不是你的父母，至少是你的祖父母——该如何整理你的衣服和被子。尤其在印度，他们说如果你的被子皱巴巴的没有叠好，那么鬼会聚过来。你睡觉时，他们会和你一起睡并且骚扰你。在英语中有一种说法，“你整理的床铺，你得自己躺上去”。这本质上关于你周围事物的形态。今天，科学家告诉我们，整个存在只是一种能量以百万种方式的显现。随着能量产生形态，形态也能反过来产生能量。你周围的每一种形态都在产生着某种能量。
The kind of forms we build, the kind of forms we hold around us and the kind of structures we live in have a phenomenal impact on everything that we are. If there is a little more awareness about the way we sit, the way we arrange ourselves and the way we keep things around us, we can create the spatial arrangement in a way that is conducive to looking inward, and which makes our spiritual process much easier. If you want to drive from point A to point B, you could probably drive through anything, but if a proper road is laid out, you would get there easily. In that context, if the spatial arrangement around us is organized in such a way that it is conducive for inward looking, it will happen much more easily.
我们所建立的形态，我们身边事物的形态以及我们所处环境的结构，对于我们所是的一切都有着非凡的影响。如果我们对我们坐的方式、构建自己的方式以及安排周围事物的方式稍微多一点觉知，我们就能创造出一种有利于向内看、有利于灵性修持的空间布局。如果你想从A点开车到B点，你很可能可以横穿过任何东西，但是如果铺好了一条路，你就很容易到达那里。同样的，如果我们周围的空间布局以一种有利于向内看的方式得以安排，它的发生也将更容易得多。
