A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

痛苦

Suffering

Thirdly, even if we assume that the world is governed by purpose, we need only add that this purpose - or, if there are several, at least one of them - is not especially intent on preventing suffering, whether it is indifferent to suffering or actually rejoices in it.

第三,即使我们假定世界是由目的所统治的,我们只需要补充一点,即这个目的- -如果有几个,至少有一个- -并不是特别有意防止痛苦,不管它是对痛苦漠不关心,还是实际上对痛苦感到高兴。

It is widely assumed, contrary to fact, that theism necessarily involves the two assumptions which cannot be squared with the existence of so much suffering, and that therefore, per impossibile, they simply have to be squared with the existence of all this suffering, somehow.

人们普遍认为,与事实相反,有神论必然包含两个假设,这两个假设不能与如此多的痛苦的存在相符合,因此,就不可能而言,它们只能以某种方式与所有这些痛苦的存在相符合。

KEEP EXPLORING

沿着这个主题,再读几句。

Breathe in deeply to bring your mind home to your body. Then look at, or think of, the person triggering this emotion: With mindfulness, you can see that she is unhappy, that she is suffering. You can see her wrong perceptions. You can see that she is not beautiful when she says things that are unkind.

深呼吸,让你的思想回到你的身体。然后看看,或者想想,触发这种情绪的人:有了正念,你可以看到她不开心,她在受苦。你可以看出她的误解。当她说一些不友善的话时,你可以看出她并不漂亮。

A LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT

给此刻的你,一点向前的力量。
