INVOCATION: Mighty Luminous Presence! “I AM” the Conquering Power. “I AM” the Radiant Splendor Filing everything in manifestation. “I AM” the Life flowing through all manifestation. “I AM” the Intelligence governing all activity, Inner and outer, making it One Perfect Activity. Out of Thy Light, “Mighty Presence which I AM” all things are precipitated into form. “I AM” the Exhaustless Energy governed by Thy Wondrous, Infinite Intelligence.

祈请:伟大的光之临在!“我是”征服的力量。“我是”遍布显化中万物的闪耀光芒。“我是”流经万物的生命能量。“我是”主宰所有活动的智能,内在的、外在的,让它成为合一的完美活动。从“我是伟大临在”的圣光之中,万物得以成形。“我是”受你美妙无限智能主宰的用之不竭的能量。请照亮来到这种照耀之下的那些身体中的能量中心。拓展那圣光,让身体和心智全然地发光,提升到你活跃的完美永恒外衣之中。

Mighty Light! send forth Thy Rays into the hearts of mankind, into all official places, commanding Justice, Illumination and Perfection of Thy Self to express, bringing relief, release, and Light unto humanity; and by Thy Governing Principle, command all things in the outer human activity to give obedience. I bring you Greetings from the Great Host of Loved Ones, who always watch and minister to those whose devotion reaches unto them.

伟大的圣光!把你的光芒射入人们的内心,进入所有的官方场所,命令正义、光芒和你临在的完美表达出来,为人类带来舒缓、释放和圣光;通过你的统领法则,命令人类外在活动中的一切进入服从之中。我给你们带来伟大上主的问候,他们始终注视并服务着那些向着他们奉献的人。

                                             开示

From out the centuries of activity we have arrived at the focal point where the experiences of ages come into instantaneous action, where all time and space become the “One Presence, ” God in Action now.

经过几个世纪的活动,我们已经到达了一个焦点,在那里,积累的经验进入即刻的行动中,所有的时间和空间成为了“合一临在”,也就是当下运作中的神。

Knowing that it is the Presence of God, “I AM,” that beats your heart, then you know that your heart is the Voice of God speaking; and as you come to meditate upon the Great Truth: ” ‘I AM’ the Supreme Intelligent Activity through my mind and heart, ” you will bring the True, Dependable, Divine Feeling into the heart.

知道是神之临在,“我是”,让你的心脏跳动,然后你就知道你的心是神的声音;当你去沉思这一伟大的真理:“‘我是’贯穿我心智和心灵的至高智能活动时,你就会把真实、可靠和神圣的感觉带入内心。”

So long mankind has been loving on the periphery of the circle. Once the student becomes really aware that “God is Love,” and Love’s True Activity comes through the heart, he will understand that to focus his attention on the desire to project Love forth for any given purpose is the supreme privilege of the outer activity of the consciousness—which can generate Love to a boundless degree. Mankind has not previously understood that Divine Love is a Power, a Presence, an Intelligence, a Light, that can be fanned into a Boundless Flame or Fire; and it is within the conscious intelligence of every individual, especially students of the Light, to so create and generate this “Presence of Love” that It becomes an Invincible, Exhaustless, Peace-commanding “Presence” wherever the conscious individual desires to direct It.

长久以来,人类一直爱在圆圈的边界。一旦学生真正意识到“神就是爱”,爱的真正活动来自内心,他就会明白,把他的注意力放在为了既定的目标发送爱的意愿上,是意识外在活动的最高特权 — 它可以产生无限的爱。人类之前并不理解,神圣之爱是一种力量、一种临在、一种智能、一种光,可以被扇动燃烧成无限的火焰;是每个人内在有意识的智能,尤其是圣光的学生,创造了并产生这种“爱之临在”,不论有意识的个体想要如何去引导它,它都会成为一种无敌的、无穷尽的、命令带来和平的“临在”。

Somewhere it has been said that Love may not be commanded. I say to you: ‘‘Love is the First Principle of Life and may be generated to any degree, or without any limit whatsoever, for Infinite use.” Such is the majestic privilege of the conscious use and direction of Love.

有人说,爱是不能被命令的。我来告诉你:“爱是生命的第一法则,可以无限度地产生,没有任何限制,可供无限使用。”这就是有意识地使用和引导爱的崇高特权。

When I say “generate” I mean the opening of the door through conscious devotion to the outpouring of this exhaustless Fountain of Love, which is the Heart of your Being—the Heart of the Universe.

当我说“产生”这个词,我的意思是,通过有意识地奉献给这个取之不尽的爱之源泉来敞开大门,这是你存在的核心 — 宇宙的核心。

Students, by contemplating this Infinite Power of Love, become such a fountain of Its outpouring that Its conscious direction may be Infinite in the student’s use.

通过对爱的无限力量的沉思,学生会成为其力量倾注的源泉,它在学生有意识引导的使用中是无穷尽的。

When My beloved students wish to hasten their liberation from certain events or outer activity, I can but say: “ ‘I AM’ the Commanding ‘ Presence’, the exhaustless energy, the Divine Wisdom causing my desire to be fulfilled’’. This will bring the quickest release from any undesirable condition that the very Law of your Being will permit. Knowing this, you may further know: “The ‘ Presence that I AM’ I now remain, untouched by disturbing outer conditions. Serene, I fold my wings and abide the Perfect Action of the Divine Law and Justice of my Being, commanding all things within my Circle to appear in Perfect Divine Order.”

当我心爱的学生们希望加速他们从特定的事情或者外在活动中解放出来时,我只能说:“‘我是’命令的‘临在’,无穷尽的能量,神圣智慧会让我的愿望得以实现。”你的存在法则会以最快的速度让你从任何不良状况中解脱出来。知晓这一点后,你就会进一步知道:我保有着“我是的临在”,不受外部任何状况的影响。在平静之中,我收起我的双翼,遵循我存在的神圣法则和正义的完美行动,命令我范围内的所有事物都处于完美的神圣秩序之中。

This is the greatest privilege of the student and should be the Command at all times. Here I shall say something that should be very encouraging, and I trust it will. Each student who is earnestly striving for the Light is being toughened as you make the toughest steel, which wears the longest, holds the best, and is the strongest. Such is what the Life of experience brings to the individual. When one craves to be released and still there appear trying experiences, it is the toughening of the steel of character and the strengthening of the individual that gives him at last the Perfect and Eternal Mastery over all outer things.

这是学生最大的特权,应该成为他时时刻刻的命令。这里我要说一些非常鼓舞的话语,我确信它会带来鼓舞。每一个认真追求生命的学生都在被磨炼,就像你们制造最坚韧的钢材那般,那些可以耐受最久的、保持最好状态的,也是最强的。这就是生命体验给个人带来的。当一个人渴望被释放,但是仍然出现那些试炼的体验时,其实是在造就钢铁般的性格和个人的强化,从而让他最终能够完美且永恒地掌控外在一切事物。

One may, with the right understanding of this, easily rejoice in the experience which is enabling him to turn to and bask in the Glorious, Wondrous “I AM Presence’’. Thus, Beloved Students, you should never grow weary of well-doing, nor meeting the experiences that sometimes seem to weigh heavily upon you; but rejoice that every step forward leads to that Eternal Goal which does not have to be repeated.

一个对此有正确理解的人,会很容易对这种体验感到开心,因为这种体验让他转向、并沐浴在荣耀神奇的“我是临在”中。因此,亲爱的学生们,你们永远不要对行善感到厌倦,也不应该对处理那些有时似乎沉重地压在你们身上的体验而感到厌倦。而是要在通往永恒目标的每一步上欢呼,终于不必再去重蹈覆辙了。

This is what me thinks the student often forgets to use: “ ‘I AM’ the strength, the courage, the power to move forward steadily through all experiences, whatever they may be, and remain joyous and uplifted, filled with peace and harmony at all times, by the Glorious Presence which ‘I AM.’

这是我认为学生们常常忘记去使用的肯定句:“‘我是’让我在所有体验中稳步前进的力量和勇气,不论这些体验是什么,我总是通过‘我是’的荣耀临在,保持着喜悦和振奋,充满和平与和谐。”

To the athlete on the race track, the beginning of the race is glorious anticipation; but as he reaches the goal and his adversary draws near, he puts forth every effort, his breath becomes short, and with one last leap, he crosses the line to victory. So it is with students on the path. They know in the use of the “I AM Presence” they cannot fail. Therefore, all that is necessary is to tighten your belt, gird yourself for whatever is required, and with a wave of the hand to your adversary, bid him farewell.

对于赛道上的运动员来说,比赛一开始是荣耀的期待;但当他接近目标,他的对手逼近时,他竭尽全力,呼吸变得急促,最后一跃,越过了终点线取得胜利。修道之路上的学生也是如此。他们知道在使用“我是临在”时,他们就不会失败。因此,你只需要勒紧你的腰带,去完成需要完成的,向你的对手挥挥手,对他告别。

More fortunate than the athlete, the student knows from the beginning that he cannot fail, because “I AM” the Exhaustless Energy and Intelligence sustaining him or her.

比运动员更幸运的是,这些学生从最开始就知道,他不会失败,因为“我是”维系着他的无穷尽的能量和智能。

The Power of Precipitation, the student should understand and remember at all times, is within the “I AM Presence’’. “I AM” here, the Life Principle and Intelligence in this body. “I AM” everywhere, even unto the Heart of God, the Governing Intelligence of the Universe, Therefore, when I wish to precipitate anything whatsoever, I know: “I AM” the Power acting; “I AM” the Intelligence directing; “I AM” the Substance being acted upon, and I now bring it into visible form and my use.

学生应该时刻理解并记住,沉降的力量就是在“我是临在”之中。“我是”这具身体中的生命法则和智能。“我是”在这里,“我是”无处不在,直至神的内心,宇宙的主宰智能。因此,当我想要让某些东西沉降出来时,我知道:“我是”运作的能量,“我是”智能的引导,“我是”被作用的材质,我现在把它带入至可见的形态,供我使用。

The contemplation of this phrase just expressed will enable the student to enter into this Activity without strain or anxiety.

对刚刚这句话的沉思会让学生毫无压力或焦虑地进入这项活动之中。

The question that so often confronts the students in the Power of Precipitation is that of money. The first question is, “How is it that money may be precipitated without interfering with the government allotment?’’ Since the creation of money as a standard of exchange, gold being its standard and heart, so to speak, and the security of all issue, it will be remembered that there have been almost a countless number of disasters in one form or another through which gold and the issue of money have been, to the outer sense, destroyed. Billions of dollars in this manner have disappeared. Therefore with any money, and it is usually gold that is precipitated, there is no danger of passing the limit set by a government for its use. Again, there have been billions of Spanish gold and denominations of other countries that have been burned, lost, submerged at sea, etc., to the extent that Precipitation would have to run into great numbers before there would be any question as to its legality. More often however, gold is precipitated in its natural state, therefore always legal in its use.

学生在使用沉降的力量时,最常面临的问题就是钱的沉降。第一个问题是,“如何在不干扰政府分配的情况下让钱沉降出来?”因为自从货币作为一种交换标准被创造出来,这么说吧,黄金就是它的标准和核心,以及所有发行货币的支撑,人们会记得,从外在意义上来说,已经发生过无数次这样或那样的灾难摧毁了黄金和发行的货币。数以亿计的美金就这样消失了。因此,对于任何货币,通常来说是沉降的黄金,都不存在超过政府为其使用设定的产生危险的界限。再就是,还有数以亿计的西班牙黄金和其他国家的货币被烧毁、丢失或者沉没在海洋中等等,所以在对其合法性提出问题之前,还可以进行大范围的沉降。不过更常见的是,黄金在自然状况下就会沉降出来,因此它的使用总是合法的。

As the world has recently offered a premium for more gold production, why not precipitate it and bless the world by its use? But I shall not hold myself responsible for the questions that will be asked when you do precipitate it, unless you have a mine from which you can supposedly have brought it forth, for you have no idea what the curiosity of the outer mind is until you call its attention to gold. I assure you, the outer is immediately set on fire. However: ” ‘I AM’ the Presence’ governing it.”

世界上最近为更多黄金的生产提供了溢价,为什么不把它沉降出来,通过使用来祝福世界呢?当你去沉降它时,我是不会让自己对那些要提出来的问题负责的,除非你沉降出一个金矿,从矿场中提取黄金,因为你不知道外在心智的好奇点在哪里,直至你让它把注意力给到黄金。我向你保证,外在心智会即刻开始提出各种问题。但是,“‘我是’临在主宰着外在心智。”

The supposed demand to know the source of gold is but a subtle form of inquiry that someone else may discover your source. My idea would be to answer their inquiry that it is none of their business. Simply say: “Here is the gold. Test it. If it is not one hundred percent, you may refuse it. If it is, you are compelled to receive it by the laws of your government.”

想要去了解黄金来源的假想要求,只是一种微妙形式的问询,那些人想知道你黄金的来源。我的想法是,如何回答他们的问题跟他们无关。只需要去说:“这是金子。请测试它,若它的纯度不是100%,你可以拒绝接受。但是如果它是的话,根据政府的律法,你必须接受它。”

You will understand, Beloved Students, that it is only in the outer activity of the physical world that you require a medium of exchange, for the moment one rises into the Power of Precipitation, he has little use for gold or money or any kind of exchange, except as incidents may require.

你必须明白,亲爱的学生们,只有在物质世界的外部活动中,你才需要一种交换的媒介,因为当一个人提升自己到沉降的力量之中,黄金、金钱或者其他形式的交换几乎没有任何用处,除非发生什么事情需要这种交换。

As one by one you come into the Ascended State, you will have many a hearty laugh over the seeming importance of these outer problems of the physical, or outer world, for they are all but the “maya,” which means but constant change. Remember, there is only one thing in the Universe that is permanent, real and Eternal. That is the “I AM Presence,” God in you, which is the Owner, the Creator, and the Intelligence governing all manifested form. Then to know that you are that “Presence,’’ that “I AM Presence’’ places you, Beloved Student, independent of all outer manifestation.

当你们一个接一个地进入扬升状态中,你们就会对物质、外部世界外在问题表面的重要性开怀大笑,因为它们都不过是“幻相”,这意味着持续地变化。请记住,宇宙中只有一件事情是永恒、真实且持久的。那就是“我是临在”,你内在的神,它是所有者、创造者,是掌管着所有显化形态的智能。然后你就知道,你就是那“临在”,亲爱的学生们,“我是临在”让你独立于所有外在的显化。

Do not misunderstand Me. I know you have to come into this Understanding sufficiently, but if you are sincere, have dauntless determination in your recognition of the “I AM Presence,” God in Action in you, you will find yourself, even to the outer sense, quickly rising into that Dominion and Independence in which you can say to all outer things, “Is it possible thou didst once disturb me?” Some of you have had an inkling of how gross and coarse all outer form seems when once you are liberated from it. To your finer, Higher Sense, it seems incredible that you could have inhabited and still are inhabiting and using a form so gross and imperfect. Had you long ago recognized, claimed, and rejoiced in the “I AM Presence” as you are doing today, these outer forms would have become so refined that you could have come back to them with very great grace. However, one has but to rejoice at every step of attainment and every step he hopes to attain, because hope becomes faith, and faith becomes Reality.

不要误解我,我知道你们必须充分地进入这种理解中,但是如果你非常真诚,有着无畏的决心去认识“我是临在”,你内在行动中的神,你就会发现自己,甚至外在的感觉,也快速地崛起,进入那种主宰和独立之中,在那里你可以对所有的外在事物说,“你有可能再像曾经一样干扰我吗?”当你从外在形态中解脱出来时,你们中的一些人已经模糊地感知到,所有的外在形态看上去是多么地粗糙。对于你更精细、高等的感官来说,你一直居住在那里,并且使用如此粗糙和不完美的形态,是一件多么不可思议的事情。若是你很久很久之前就像你今天所做的那样,去认识、宣告,并欣喜于“我是临在”,那么这些外在形态就会变得很精细,你可以带着非常优雅的姿态回到它们之中。不过,一个人必须为每一步的成就和他希望达成的每一步而喜悦,因为希望会带来信念,信念会成为现实。

Now Beloved Students, under no circumstance allow the experience of the outer to pall upon you, but in this recognition, rejoice every day, every hour, every minute that brings you nearer to the goal of Freedom and release from limitation—that Freedom you have so longed for and so much desired.

亲爱的学生们,任何情况下都不要允许外在的体验干扰到你,而要为自己处于这种认知中的每一天、每一小时、每一分都感到高兴,这会让你更加接近自由的目标,并且从限制中解脱出来 — 这是你长久以来一直渴望的自由。

The Light is growing very bright within some of you. Continue on with that calm, dauntless determination to scale the heights, for: ” ‘I AM’ that Great Presence sustaining you, and you cannot fail.” You know the old phrase used to spur one on, and especially among soldiers, was to tell them they were cowards, and “yellow.” Now Beloved Students, I say to you: you are not cowards, but you are yellow with the Golden Light of Truth, of Dominion, of Mastery over all outer things which have bound you; and with one Mighty Surge of the ‘I AM Presence’ you break every binding chain, shatter all sense of limitation, and stand forth in your Freedom, the Glorious, Radiant, Majestic Being that you really are.

你们中一些人内在的圣光正在变得非常明亮。继续带着平静无畏的决心去攀登高峰,因为“‘我是’支撑着你的伟大临在,你不会失败。”你知道,人们用来激励他人的古老短语,尤其是在士兵之中,会叫对方胆小鬼,“黄懦夫”。现在,亲爱的学生们,我对你们说,你们不是胆小鬼,而是携带着超越所有束缚你们外在事物的真理、主宰和掌控的黄金圣光;伴随着‘我是临在’的强大脉动,你打破了每一条束缚锁链,粉碎了所有的限制感,站在你的自由中,站在你们真正的荣耀、绚烂、伟大的存在之中。

I like very much to use the Statement: “ ‘I AM’ here and ‘I AM’ there”; and if you will contemplate it, you cannot help but overcome the sense of separation.

我非常喜欢使用这个肯定句:“‘我是’在这里,‘我是’在那里。”若是你愿意思考这句话,你就会自然而然地超越分离的感觉。

The student is more or less uncertain, which always brings anxiety, and anxiety makes tension. As you come into the Higher Activity, you will become more and more relaxed.

学生或多或少地不确信感,总是会带来焦虑,而焦虑又会带来紧张。当你进入更高的活动时,你会变得越来越放松。

Always take the attitude of calm poise when anything should manifest. Always be happy and rejoice in the Presence; but there is always the balance to be maintained—it is the Middle Way. Hold yourself within this Center Poise. One can rejoice as deeply in a calm poise as he can in overexuberance. The calm poise conveys a certain something to others that they need, for every human being needs poise and the conscious realization of the necessity of calmness and poise, because it never leaves one off guard. Poise has within it a certain power of Self-control and guard which is very essential.

不论发生什么事情,都要带着冷静沉着的态度。永远在临在中感到快乐和欣喜;但是这里有一种平衡要去维持 — 中庸之道。让自己处于中心的平衡状态。一个人可以在深沉的泰然自若中感到欣喜。一个人也可以在过度兴奋中开心。泰然自若的态度向他人传递出一种他们所需要的特定东西,因为每一个人都需要沉着,并且有意识地意识到平静和沉着的必要性,因为它永远不会让人放松警惕。泰然自若中有一定的自制力和警惕性,这是非常重要的。

You will be not only delighted but amazed at times at the marvelous things that will come with it. Use: “ ‘I AM’ the Perfect Poise which controls everything.’’ When you use the “I AM Presence’’ be sure to keep it as a permanent thing.

你不仅会开心,而且有时还会对随之而来的奇妙事物感到惊喜。使用这句:“‘我是’完美的沉着冷静,主宰着一切。”当你使用“我是临在”时,确保让它保持永久运作。

Each one try this, and if you do not feel results at first, just go on, for you certainly will as you use it more and more: ” ‘I AM’ the Presence charging this water with the Life-giving Essence which I absorb and which renews my body in Perfect Health and Eternal Youth. ” Affirm often: “ ‘I AM’ here and ‘I AM’ there, ‘I AM’ the conscious action everywhere. ’’ To discordant activities say: ” ‘I AM’ the Presence preventing this. ‘I AM’ the positive, peaceful control of this whole situation.”

每个人都使用这句,若是你们一开始感觉没有结果,继续这么做,因为当你越来越多地使用它,你肯定会感觉到确信:“‘我是’赋予这杯水以生命精华的临在,我吸收这生命精华,让我的身体焕然一新,恢复完美的健康,永葆青春。”经常去这样确认:“‘我是’在这里,‘我是’在那里,‘我是’无所不在的有意识的行动。”对于那些不和谐的活动,去说:“‘我是’阻止它发生的临在。‘我是’对整个局势积极与和平的掌控。”

In the “I AM Consciousness” is the Wisdom that knows what is required. Know always that: “ ‘I AM’ the controlling, governing Presence of this meeting or situation.’’

在“我是意识”中,存在着智慧,知道需要什么。永远要知道:“‘我是’这次会面或状况的主宰控制临在。”

There is nothing comes into physical form which is not first perfected on the Invisible, or Higher Planes.

来到物质形态中的所有一切,都要先在不可见的更高领域进行完善。

The students should not discuss this Instruction, but just rejoice in living It themselves. If they will do this, they will receive so much more from It, because there will be no conflicting vibrations to disturb them.

学生们不应该去讨论这个指令,而是要在他们身上活出它。若是他们愿意这样做,他们就会从中得到更多,因为不会有产生冲突的振动来干扰他们。

BENEDICTION: Wondrous Presence of the God “I AM”! We give praise and thanks for this feeling of the certainty of Thy Presence that is growing within the consciousness of these students under this Radiation. We rejoice in the Great Light of Thy Presence enfolding each one, which goes forth unto all humanity, changing all discord into Love and Peace. We thank Thee.

祝福:美妙的神之临在“我是”!我们给予赞美和感谢,因为在这种照耀下,学生意识中对你那临在的确定性感觉在增长。我们在你那笼罩着每个人的伟大圣光临在中感到喜悦,这圣光会普照全人类,把所有的不和谐转变为和平与爱。我们感谢你。
