A desire arises in the mind. It is satisfied immediately another comes. In the interval which separates two desires a perfect calm reigns in the mind. It is at this moment freed from all thought, love or hate. Complete peace equally reigns between two mental waves.

  • -- Swami Shivananda 瓦南达

一种欲望在心中升起。它立刻满足于另一个到来。在分离两种欲望的间隙里,一种完全平静的心境支配着我们的心灵。在这一刻,它从所有的思想、爱或恨中解脱出来。完全的和平同样统治着两个精神波之间。
