Sadhguru talks about the difference between love and lust, explaining how as we become more physically inactive, our energy is not expended and manifests as neurosis.

萨古鲁谈论爱与欲望的区别,并解释了为何当我们身体更不活跃时,我们的能量没有被消耗而表现为神经症。

Sadhguru: The whole world is going through a unique kind of neurosis, which was not there in the past. This is simply because modern man has stopped using his body to a large extent. In the past, when you intensely involved yourself in physical activity, a lot of your neurosis was worked out. Your nervous energy got spent. I know many people, especially young people, who had psychological problems. They just started swimming or playing some sport daily and then everything became okay. Because of enough activity, the energy was expended.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):整个世界正在经历一种独特的神经症,这种情况在过去是没有的。这仅仅是因为现代人已经在很大程度上停止使用他的身体。过去,当你高强度地投入于体力活动时,你的神经症很大程度上就被发泄掉了。你的神经能量被消耗了。我知道很多有心理问题的人,尤其是年轻人,他们只是每天开始游泳或参加一些体育运动,然后就都变好了。因为有了足够的活动,能量得到了消耗。
 
Today, man has become physically inactive like never before. He could not afford to be so physically inactive before, he had to do so many things physically, just to survive. He has become more neurotic than in the past. As a general phenomenon, there were neurotic people then also but not in these numbers. Today, it has become a common phenomenon in society that everybody is in some level of neurosis. This is simply because your energy is not worked out. It is trapped. You have not transcended your madness and at the same time, you are not working it out. The therapy also is not there. If you went out and chopped wood for the whole day – if you chopped a hundred logs a day – a lot of your energy would be spent, and life would be peaceful. But today it is not like that. You are not using your body the way it used to be used, so you go on generating all kinds of diseases, like never before.
今天,人类身体变得前所未有地不活跃。过去,人不能这样不活动身体,只是为了生存,他都不得不做许多体力活。所以人变得比过去更加神经质。作为一个总体现象,那时也有神经症患者,但数目小得多。如今,每个人都处于某种程度的神经症中,这在社会上已成为普遍现象。这仅仅是因为你的能量没有找到出口。它被困住了。你尚未超越你的疯狂,又没能让它找到出口,同时也没能治疗它。如果你出去伐木一整天——一天要砍伐100根原木——你的大部分能量将被消耗,生命将变得平静。但是如今不是那样。你没有像以前那样使用你的身体,所以你会不断制造各种疾病,前所未有地。
 
This builds up into your system over a period of time. Then your physical and emotional energy needs some outlet. That is how bars, clubs and discotheques have come into place. People have to work out their neurosis somewhere, somehow. These discos look like madness, you cannot even breathe inside. They are full of smoke and sweat, but people are just going wild. You cannot even dance, everybody is bumping into everybody else, but it does not matter, you have to work it out. Otherwise you will go crazy. So on Saturday, you go to work out your neurosis for the week. Then the piling up starts once more and once again the Saturday night fever comes.
这会在一段时间内累积到你的系统中。然后,你的身体和情感能量需要一些出口。酒吧、俱乐部和迪斯科舞厅就是这样出现的。人们必须在某个地方以某种方式发泄掉他们的神经症。这些迪斯科舞厅看起来很疯狂,你甚至无法在里面呼吸。舞厅充斥着烟雾和汗水,但人们却很狂热。你甚至无法跳舞,每个人都会碰到其他人,但这没关系,你就是想要发泄。否则你将会发疯。因此,在周六,你需要让这一周的神经症找到出口。然后堆积再次开始,周六晚上再次狂热。

Moving From Lust to Love

从欲望到爱

 

When you love, you settle down, nothing more is needed. You can just sit here for a lifetime. With lust you cannot sit anywhere. You either get into some mad action, or you are bound to go crazy.

当你爱的时候,你会安定下来,不再需要更多。你可以在这里坐一辈子。有欲望时,你无法坐在任何地方。你要么采取一些疯狂的行动,要么你一定会发疯。


There is another way to drop this madness and go ahead – completely leaving it behind and going ahead where you are no more a part of it. This is what meditation is all about. Now, if you dance, you simply dance for the joy of it, and not because there is something to work out. If you are dancing to work out something, maybe it is therapeutic. It is good therapy alright, but there is a certain ugliness about it. It is lusty. You cannot dance out of love. You can only dance out of lust.
还有另一种方法可以消除这种疯狂,继续前行——完全把它放下,继续前进,直到你不再是它的一部分。这就是冥想的全部意义所在。现在,如果你跳舞,你只是因为喜悦而跳,而不是因为有需要发泄的东西。如果你在通过跳舞来发泄,可能它是有疗效的,不错,这是一种很好的疗法,但其中也有一定的丑陋。它是带有欲望的。你不能出于爱而舞蹈。你只能出于欲望而跳舞。
 
Do you know the difference between love and lust? Lust is a strong need. Love is not a need. When you love, you settle down, nothing more is needed. You can just sit here for a lifetime. With lust you cannot sit anywhere. You either get into some mad action, or you are bound to go crazy. When there is a certain neurosis, a certain madness within yourself, you can only be in lust. Your lust can be for sex, for food or for some particular activity or some hobby; it does not matter what it is, but you develop lust for something. Without that lust you cannot live. Even your work is an effective way of throwing out your lust. It is just that it is the most popular and accepted way in the world. Today people just go on working, working and working. Not because they are creating something fantastic, but simply because they have to work. Otherwise they don’t know what to do with themselves.
你知道爱与欲望的区别吗?欲望是强烈的需求。爱不是需求。当你爱的时候,你会安定下来,不再需要更多。你可以在这里坐一辈子。有了欲望,你无法坐在任何地方。你要么采取一些疯狂的行动,要么你一定会发疯。当你内在有某种神经症、某种疯狂时,你只会处于欲望之中。你的欲望可以是性、食物或者某些特定活动或爱好。它是什么不重要,重要的是你对某事发展出了欲望。没有那种欲望,你无法活着。甚至你的工作也是一种发泄欲望的有效方法。只是它是世界上最受欢迎并且最能被接受的方式。今天人们只是不停地工作、工作、工作。不是因为他们在创造什么美妙的东西,而是因为他们必须努力工作。否则,他们不知道该拿自己怎么办。
 
You have to guard that madness cautiously. Nobody ever knows that you have this within yourself and you yourself would like to forget it. You do everything possible to forget it. All the entertainment in the world has come just to hide your madness. If you were perfectly sane, you would not need entertainment. You need entertainment just to cover your madness. If we take away your entertainment, you will go crazy. Man needs entertainment simply to hide his madness. If he was perfectly sane, he would not need entertainment. He could just sit and watch the bamboo grow. He would not really need entertainment.
你还得小心地护着这种疯狂。没人知道你的内在有这种疯狂,并且你自己也想忘记它。你尽一切可能忘记它。世界上所有的娱乐活动都只是为了隐藏你的疯狂。如果你完全理智,你就不需要娱乐。你需要娱乐只是为了掩饰你的疯狂。如果我们拿走你的娱乐活动,你会发疯。人们需要娱乐只是为了隐藏自己的疯狂。如果他完全理智,他将不需要娱乐。他可以只是坐着看竹子生长。他真的不需要娱乐。

Editor’s Note: A New York Times Bestseller, Inner Engineering – A Yogi’s Guide to Joy is a step towards learning how to overcome such neurosis and becoming meditative.
编者注:《纽约时报》最佳畅销书《内在工程》是学习如何克服这种神经症、进入冥想的一步。
