INVOCATION: Thou Majestic Presence, Infinite Creator of all there is, the “Great I AM,” visible and invisible, manifest and unmanifest! We rejoice in Thy Great and Mighty Presence —that Thou hast made us aware of Thy Limitless Power, Thy Infinite Intelligence, Thy Eternal Youth and Beauty. We give praise and thanks that we have become so aware of Thy Great Opulence, Thy Great Abundance, that we feel It like a mighty river in our hands and use, Thou Mighty Endless Source! Thou Ceaseless Stream! Thou hast made us aware that: ” ‘I AM’ the Mighty Power of Precipitation. ” We bow before Thee in adoration and full acceptance of Thy Mighty Presence and Power.

祈请:你那威严的临在,万物的无限创造者,“伟大的我是”,可见的和不可见的,显化的和未显化的!我们在你那伟大临在中欢呼 —— 你让我们意识到你无限的力量、你无限的智能、你无限的青春和美丽。我们赞美和感谢,因为我们已经意识到你伟大的丰盛和富饶,我们感觉你伟大无尽的源泉、你源源不断的溪流就像流经我们手中的河流供我们使用!你让我们意识到:“‘我是’沉降的伟大力量。”我们在尊崇之中向你鞠躬,全然地接受你伟大的临在和力量。

I bring you Greetings from the Great Host; and the Great Light of the Illumined Ones is growing rapidly stronger.

我给你们带来伟大上主的问候,光明存有的伟大圣光正在迅速增强。

I wish to give the most kindly warning to the students under this Radiation to watch every feeling— that at no time anyone accept a feeling of jealousy at the progress of another. Each student must always remember that he has no concern whatsoever with the other students, except to know that: ” ‘I AM’ the God Presence there in action.” For one student to wonder and question in his own mind about the progress of another is most retarding, and it is never admissible.

我想向在这种照耀下的学生们发出最善意的警告,要留意每一种感觉 —— 任何时候一个人都不要去接受对其他人进步的妒忌感。每个学生必须永远记住,他不要去担心其他的学生,除了知晓:“‘我是’那里神之临在的行动”。对于一个学生来说,在自己的头脑中去怀疑和质疑另一个学生的进步是最大的阻碍,而且这是绝对不允许的。

Each student must understand that his only concern is the harmonizing, quickening, and expansion of his own mind and world. The sooner students understand that the one imperative demand of the Great Law of their Being is harmony of the mind and feelings, the quicker will Perfection manifest. Without this being maintained, they cannot go beyond a certain state of progress.

每个学生都必须明白,他唯一关心的是他自己的心智和他所在世界的协调、加速和扩展。 学生越早理解他们存在的伟大法则之中的迫切要求,心智和情感的和谐,完美就会越快显现。 如果不保持和谐,他们就无法超越某种进步中的状态。

As soon as the students realize this and begin to use the “I AM Presence,” commanding the harmony and silence of the outer activity, they will find that they can see, feel, and be the Perfection which they so much desire. When students and friends have a deep, sincere Love for each other which is not inquisitiveness, that Love is the greatest blessing and uplifting power. Here is one criterion by which a student may gauge himself at all times, determining what is the power acting.

一旦学生意识到这一点并开始使用“我是临在”,去命令外部活动处于和谐与安静之中,他们就会发现,他们可以看到、感受到并成为他们如此渴望的完美。当学生和朋友彼此之间有着深沉、真诚的爱,而不是好奇心时,这种爱就是最大的祝福和提升的力量。这是一个学生可以随时衡量自己的标准,以确定是什么力量在运作。

If one feels critical, inquisitive or out of harmony toward a person, place, condition or thing, it is a sure signal that the outer self is acting, and the right attitude is to correct it immediately. Everyone, especially students, must realize that they have only one thing to do, and that is to feel, see, and be Perfection in their own worlds.

如果一个人对一个人、一个地方、一个状况或一件事感到挑剔、质疑或不和谐,这是一个明确的信号,表明外在的自我正在运作,正确的态度就是立即去纠正它。每个人,尤其是学生,必须意识到他们只有一件事要做,那就是感受、看到并在自己的世界中成为完美。

This is so very important is the reason I am stressing it so much at this time —because as students begin to experience unusual manifestation through their efforts, there is always that suggestion at first which will say to the individual: ” ‘I AM’ able to use the Law better than the other person.” This, you know without My saying it, is a mistake.

这一点非常重要,所以我才在此刻如此强调它 —— 因为当学生开始通过他们的努力体验到不同寻常的表达时,最初总是会出现这样的声音对这个人说:“‘我是’可以比其他人更好地运用这法则。”这一点不用我说,你也知道它是错误的。

One cannot long use the Statement “I AM, ” even intellectually, until he begins to feel a deeper and deeper conviction that: ” ’I AM’ all things. ” Think often what these two marvelous Words mean, and always couple with the use of these two Words the Statement that: “When I say ‘I AM,’ ‘I AM’ setting in motion the Limitless Power of God in whatever couple the expression ‘I AM’ with.” In the scriptural Statement: “Before Abraham, was ‘I AM’, ” Abraham represents the outer expression of Life, and “I AM” represents the Principle of Life which was expressing through Abraham. Thus there was the Perfection of Life—before any manifestation ever occurred; and thus is Life without beginning and without end.

直至一个人开始感觉一种越来越深沉的确信感:“‘我是’万物”,否则他不能长久地使用“我是”肯定句,即便是理智知晓也不行。经常去思考这两个奇妙字眼的涵义,并始终与应用结合,就是下面这句声明:“当我说‘我是’,不论‘我是’与什么结合起来,‘我是’就把神的无限力量带入到行动之中。”在圣经的陈述中有这样一句话:“在亚伯拉罕之前,有‘我是’。”亚伯拉罕代表生命的外在表达,“我是”代表了通过亚伯拉罕进行表达的生命法则。因此,在任何外在表达发生之前,存在着生命的完美;因此,生命没有开始,也没有终结。

My Beloved Students, My Heart rejoices exceedingly in the nearness with which some of you are feeling the conviction of this Majestic Presence, “I AM,” which you are. Do your utmost to feel calmly, serenely, and if you cannot see it otherwise, shut your eyes and see Perfection everywhere. More and more there will come to you proof of the marvelous Presence of this Truth. You will hear, feel, see, and experience that marvel of all marvels—which as children you have lived in—miracles performed.

我亲爱的学生们,我心里非常高兴,因为你们中的一些人感受到了这个庄严临在,也就是真正的你,“我是”的确信感,。尽最大努力去感受平静、安宁,闭上你的双眼,去看到无所不在的完美。会有越来越多的证据表明这个神奇临在存在的真实性。你会听到、感受到、看到并体验到所有奇迹中的奇迹 —— 你从小一直就活在奇迹中 —— 活在创造的奇迹中。

There have been written for your benefit descriptions and explanations of the use of this “Mighty I AM Presence.” You who hold fast to the Truth will come into the threefold action: seeing, hearing and experiencing these so-called miracles—miracles until you understand their operation, and then majestic simple Truths which you may forever apply, when once understood.

使用“伟大我是临在”的描述和解释会给你带来的好处,已经写了下来。坚守这一真理的人,将会采取三重行动:看到、听到并体验到这些所谓的奇迹,当你理解了它们的运作之后,奇迹就变成了简单的真理,一旦理解了,你就可以永远地对它们进行应用。

With all My centuries of experience, I cannot help but say to you as encouragement that My Heart leaps with joy at the nearness with which some of you are grasping the Scepter of Dominion. Go forward, My Brave Ones. Do not hesitate. Grasp your Scepter of Dominion! Raise It! for: “I AM” the Scepter, the Quenchless Flame, the Dazzling Light, the Perfection which you once knew.” Come! Let Me hold you in My strong Embrace, that where there have been so long two, there will only be one —”I AM.” “I AM” the Knower, the Doer, the Perfection expressed now.

我用自己几个世纪以来的经验,忍不住对你们说,作为鼓励,我的内心因为你们中的一些人紧紧握住这主宰的权杖而欢欣。前进吧,勇敢的人们。不要犹豫。抓住你的主宰权杖!举起它!因为:“我是”权杖,是不灭的火焰,是闪耀的圣光,是你曾经知晓的完美。“来吧!让我用我强有力的怀抱拥抱你,一直以来那里都是有两个,现在将只剩下一个” —— “我是”。“我是”知者、行者,是表达的完美。

I again speak to the individuals wanting so much to have their problems solved. There is only One Presence in the Universe that can or ever does solve any problem, and that is the “I AM Presence’’ everywhere present. Beloved Ones! Let me say in all kindness, there is no use just seeking to have a problem solved, because where one was, a dozen may appear; but when you know the Perfect Attitude is to enter into the “I AM Presence,” knowing It is the Unquestionable Solver of every problem, you will, as surely as “I AM” telling you, cause all problems to disappear; for where you live constantly, calmly and with sufficient determination in the “I AM Presence” instead of having many appear where one has been solved, you will have entered into the State where there are none.

我再次对那些非常希望解决问题的人交谈。宇宙中只有一种临在能够确实解决任何问题,那就是无所不在的“我是临在”。亲爱的学生们!恕我直言,仅仅寻求解决问题是没有用的,因为一个问题出现,接下来还会有一打问题出现;但是,当你知道,完美的态度就是进入“我是临在”,知道它是每个问题毋庸置疑的解决者时,那你就会像“我是”告诉你的那样,让所有的问题消失;因为当你持续地、平静地、并以足够的决心进入“我是临在”之中,而不是解决一个问题后又让很多问题出现,那样你就会进入没有任何问题的状态中。

I command the Power in these Words today to cany to everyone who hears or reads them the True Conviction and Understanding back of them.

我命令这些话语中的力量向每一个听到或者读到它们的人传达出真正的信念和理解。

For the Brain: “ ‘I AM’ the quickening of the cells of this (my or your) brain structure, causing it to expand and receive the Intelligent Direction of the Mighty Inner Presence.”

对于大脑:“‘我是’加速这个(我的或你的)大脑构造中细胞成长的能量,让它去拓展,并接收来自伟大内在临在的智能引导。”

You must know that you have the power through the “I AM Presence” to consciously qualify your thought in whatever way you will. There is naught to say what you shall do, for you are a Free Being of Free Will. If you could be conscious of every thought that passed through your mind for six weeks and keep it qualified with Perfection, you would see the most amazing results. Say often: ” ‘I AM’ the Master Within, governing and controlling all my thought processes in full Christ Perfection as I wish them to be.”

你必须知道,你有能力通过“我是临在”以任何你愿意的方式去有意识地限定你的思想。没有谁可以说你应该做什么,因为你是一个拥有自由意志的存在。若是你可以在六周的时间内,能够意识到每一个你脑海中闪过的想法,并赋予其完美的特质,你就会看到最惊人的结果。经常去说:“‘我是’内在的上师,以我希望它们所成为的基督全然完美来管理和控制所有我的思考过程。”

Blessing and holding others in the Light: When you bless others, or visualize them in the Light, there is a double activity of the quality you send out. In doing this there is a certain amount of protection that is the automatic result, but the thought and quality in the Light and blessing registers principally within one’s own consciousness, and at the same time intensifies that quality in the one to whom it is sent.

在圣光中祝福和护佑他人:当你祝福他人时,或观想他们处于圣光中,你发送出去的特质会产生双重活动。当你这么做时,会自动产生一定程度的保护,不仅是在光和祝福中的思想与品质回主要刻印在一个人自己的意识之中,同时还会强化接受者的这种特质。

Take the eternal stand that: ” ‘I AM’ what I want to be.” You must use the “I AM Presence,’ consciously always. Rarely, even among students, have they realized deeply what the “I AM Presence” meant. Only occasionally has any real comprehension of the “I AM” come forth—except in the Retreats of the Ascended Masters. Jesus was the first to stress it to the outer world. I urge you earnestly, do not give any consideration to the element of time. Manifestation must come instantly when you give the “I AM Presence” freedom enough. Go on, apply, know, and let the “I AM Presence” take care of the element of time.

要采取这样永恒的立场:“‘我是’我想成为的。”你必须始终有意识地使用“我是临在”。即使在学生中,他们也很少深刻地意识到“我是临在”的含义。只有偶尔才会出现对“我是”的真正理解 —— 就是在扬升大师的静修之处。耶稣是第一个向外界强调这一点的人。 我恳请大家,不要去考虑时间的因素。当你给予“我是临在”足够的自由时,显化必须立即到来。继续这么做、去应用、去了解,并让“我是临在”来处理时间因素。

When you make a declaration of Truth and stick to it, you must receive. The outer has no power of itself at all. Its duty is simply to know that the “I AM Presence” is acting. Sometimes, without being aware of it, the outer self is looking for the time of manifestation.

当你去宣告真理,并坚持下去,那么你一定会收到回应。外在根本没有任何力量。它的职责仅仅是去知晓“我是临在”在行动。有的时候,在没有意识到的情况下,外在自我会去寻找显化的时间。

I can convey to you the conviction and the feeling that when you command as the “I AM Presence,” Almighty God moves into action.

我可以向你传达这样的信念和感觉,当你以“我是临在”进行命令时,全能的神就会采取行动。

Remember at all times that when you are dealing with personalities you are dealing with the outer human creation, and you have all right and power to command its silence and obedience, whether it is in your own outer self or someone else’s.

永远记住,当你与人格打交道时,你就是在与外在的人类创造打交道,你有权利和力量命令它保持沉默和服从,无论是你自己的外在自我还是别人的外在自我。

If you will count ten before you speak, you can control all sudden impulse, and back of this is a Mighty Law which can help the student immensely. When there is a sudden impulse, there is a release, or rushing forward of accumulated energy. If there be anger, then the energy is instantly qualified with it, or with destruction of some kind.

如果在你讲话之前你可以数到十,那么你就可以去控制所有突然出现的冲动,这背后有一个伟大的法则,可以极大地帮助学生。当出现突然的冲动时,就会有释放,让积累的能量表达。若是有愤怒,那么能量就会被赋予愤怒的特质,或者具有某种破坏性。

The power of Self-control would say: “Only God’s Perfection goes forth.” This will handle any condition of uncontrolled impulses with which the individual is contending. When the student has already let something go forth that is undesirable, then the thing to do is to consciously consume it—instantly.

获得自我控制的力量,去说:“出现的只有神之完美。”这会处理掉这个人正在应对的所有失控冲动的状况。当学生释放一些不想要的东西时,那么要做的就是有意识地去转化它 —— 即刻去这么做。

The constant use of “God bless this” directed to in-animate things brings amazing accomplishment. The easy way to see and feel Perfection is to qualify every thought and feeling going forth with Perfection. When an impulse comes to do anything, instantly qualify it with Perfection.

对无生命的事物持续地使用“神保佑它”这句话,会带来惊人的成就。看到和感觉完美的简单方法就是用完美来限定每一个想法和情感。当出现要做任何事情的冲动时,即刻用完美来限定它。

Story of the engine in a small town: The whistle is the warning; the “I AM” is the control of the engine.

有关小城镇中发动机的故事:汽笛是警告;“我是”引擎的控制。

The ordinary human being would not think of running over children and killing them, yet he releases wrongly qualified energy in thought, feeling, and words that kill the higher impulses in others. If your personality is not controlled and governed, it has the same qualities as all other outer selves or personalities, but your “I AM Presence,’ is the Perfect Control of it.

一般人都不会想去碾压孩子并扼杀他们,但是,人们在思想、情感和言语中释放了错误的能量,扼杀了他人的高级脉动。如果你的人格不受控制和掌控,它就具有与所有其他外在自我或人格相同的特质,不过你的“我是临在”是对它的完美控制。

There is nothing more tragic in the world than for one person to hold the thought of limitation over another human being. A thought of imperfection driven at a sensitive person sometimes limits that one for years, and many times the results are very tragic. We must all give everyone his complete freedom mentally. If you speak of freedom for yourself, be sure and give it first to everyone else. When there is a condition in another that you wish to help, use the following: “‘I AM’ the Perfect Manifestation there.”

世界上没有什么比一个人对另一个人抱有限制性的想法更悲惨的了。一个敏感的人有时会被一种不完美的想法所限制,很多时候结果是非常悲惨的。我们必须给予每个人完全的心智自由。如果你谈论自己的自由,那么请务必首先给予其他人自由。当你希望帮助他人摆脱某种状况时,请使用以下内容:“‘我是’那里的完美表达。”

The principle within both energy and substance is the same. Substance holds energy within it naturally. The heart center of substance is Intelligent Action. Vibration in its natural state is pure, always. Vibration is energy in action and must be qualified.

能量和物质的原理是相同的。物质自然地含有能量。物质的核心是智能的行动。其自然状态下的振动始终是纯净的。振动是行动中的能量,必须经过限定。

The pulsation in all substance is the “Breath of God” acting. Think when breathing: ” ‘I AM’ the Perfect Energy of every breath I breathe. ‘I AM’ the pure atmosphere of my world.”

所有物质的脉动都是“神之呼吸”的运作。呼吸时请思考:“‘我是’我每一次呼吸的完美能量。 ‘我是’我世界的纯净环境。”

Form the habit of constantly qualifying your world with Perfection. The old habit of thinking imperfection has filled your world in the past. Now the important thing is to be Self-conscious that you are filling your world with Perfection all the time. Stand on your feet the first thing in the morning and say with feeling: ” ‘I AM’ the Presence filling my world with Perfection this day.”

养成不断完善你世界的习惯。过去认为不完美的旧习惯已经充满了你的世界。 现在重要的是要自觉地意识到你的世界一直充满完美。早上第一件事就是站起来,带着这种感觉说:“‘我是’临在让我的世界在这一天充满了完美。”

Do not be concerned about personalities. To take the stand: ” ‘I AM’ Perfection acting through any official” would impel the ‘I AM’ Power and Action there.

不要去担心人格。采取这样的立场:“‘我是’通过所有官员运作的完美”,这样就会让‘我是’力量和行动在那里运作。

The first thing in the morning, say: “I qualify everything in my world this day with Perfection, because ‘I AM’ Perfection. I qualify this mind and body with Absolute Perfection and refuse acceptance of anything else.’!

早上的第一件事,去说:“我今天以完美来限定我世界上的一切,因为‘我是’完美。我以绝对完美来限定我的心智和身体,并拒绝接受任何其他东西。!”

“‘I AM’ the Miracle, and I AM’ the Presence compelling its manifestation through Divine Love, Wisdom and Power.”

“‘我是’奇迹,‘我是’通过神圣之爱、智慧和力量来让其表达的临在。”

When individuals come and ask about certain use of the Law, always preface your statement with: “You are an individual of free will, but this is the way I feel about it.”

当人们来询问生命法则的某些用途时,请始终在你的表述前加上:“你拥有自由意志,不过这是我对此的感受。”

What is required for the expansion of the Light of one person may be entirely different from that for someone else. You cannot expand so long as you have an opinion about anyone else. It is stifling to your own progress. There is a time comes with everyone when he must stand up and face himself, his outer creation, then say this: “Whatever there is of imperfection left in me has to get out. “

一个人内在的光扩展所需要的可能与其他人的光扩展所需要的完全不同。只要你对别人有意见,你就无法去拓展。它会阻碍你自己的进步。每个人都会有这样一个时刻,他必须站起来面对自己,面对他的外在创造,然后说:“无论我身上还有什么不完美的地方,都必须去掉。”

Your constructive desire is God in action doing the thing.

你的建设性意愿是神在行动中做这件事。

Your desire holds the Power or energy of the “I AM,” through the attention on the thing you desire to do.

你的心愿中拥有“我是”的力量或能量,通过你把注意力放在你想要完成的事情上来实现。

” ‘I AM’ the Full Revelation and the Perfect Application for precipitating what I desire, and I do know what is the Perfect Thing to do in the outer self while precipitating.”

“‘我是’我想要沉降之事的完美启示和完美应用,我的确知晓在沉降过程中外在自我要做的完美事情是什么。”

Say often: ” ‘I AM’ the precipitating ‘Presence’ of this thing.” Do not be anxious; just know it with calm certainty. When you are conscious of the “I AM” acting, you know it is moving forward. Do not let in the sense of disappointment — rather, say:

经常去说:“‘我是’让这件事情沉降的‘临在’”。不要焦虑,只需要带着冷静的确信去知晓这一点。当你意识到“我是”在运作时,你就知道它在向前推进。不要表现出失望的感觉 —— 而是要这么说:

“’I AM’ the Perfect Harmony of my thought, feeling and action.”

“‘我是’是我的思想、感觉和行动的完美和谐。”

BENEDICTIN: Out of Thy Pure Essence, we receive now and forever Thy Strength, Thy Wisdom, Thy Understanding Application of Thy Great and Marvelous Laws, that we may produce and maintain Thy Perfection in each Life, mind, body, home and world.

祝福:从你那纯粹的精华中,我们从现在起直至永远接收到了你的力量、你的智慧、以及你对你那伟大而美妙的生命法则的理解和应用,从而我们可以在每个生命、心智、身体、家庭和世界中,产生并保持你的完美。

NOTES

附注

In a recent newsreel there have been pictured certain chemical activities and how to use this chemical action upon flowers to qualify them with the desired fragrance. Instead of raising them in the earth, they are growing them in water with excelsior over the top. This shows how near the chemists and scientists are coming to bringing things forth direct from the Universal. This shows the “Inner Activity” coming into conscious, definite use—or the activity held in Consciously Directed Rays.

最近的新闻短片报道了某些化学活动,描述了可以给花朵施加某种化学试剂从而赋予它们所需要的香气。这些花朵不是种植在土壤中,而是种植在水中,盖上细木绒。这种现象表明化学家和科学家距离可以从宇宙中直接得到事物的距离是非常接近的。这表明了“内在的活动”进入有意识的明确使用之中 —— 或者是有意识地引导圣光来进行活动。

”‘I AM’ the only acting Presence in this deal.”

“‘我是’这笔交易中唯一运作的临在。”

” ‘I AM’ the Intelligent Activity in their minds.”

“‘我是’他们心智中的智能活动。”

” ‘I AM’ the Protection in myself and my property.”

“‘我是’自己和我财产的保护。”

” ‘I AM’ the Intelligence and Presence acting everywhere.”

“‘我是’无所不在的智能和临在。”

“‘I AM’ the visible opulence I desire.”

“‘我是’我渴望的可见丰盛。”

”‘I AM’ the Presence producing abundance wherever I choose to use it.”

“‘我是’不论我选择如何使用,都会产生丰盛的临在。”
