SAINT GERMAIN
INVOCATION: O Mighty "Presence," We give praise and thanks, and rejoice in Thy Mighty Radiant Presence — that Thou hast come forth to clothe America in Thy Mighty Radiant Presence and shed Thy Splendor o'er humanity. We rejoice that the cycles of time have moved forward, and this has en- abled Thee to come forth from Thy Secret Chamber in the Temple of Light. Mighty One, in the Majesty of Thy Splendor, Peace, and Power, look into the Hearts of those who sincerely look to the Light. Strengthen them! Give them courage! Enable them through Thee, Mighty God within, to hasten and come forth and be the Messengers of the Mighty God Light. Speak to the Hearts of the Children of Light. Strengthen them to stand and be sustained in Thy Great Splendor.
祈愿文:哦,强大的 “临在”,我们赞美、感恩并为您那闪耀的伟大临在而欢欣 —— 您降临,以您强大的光辉笼罩美国,将您的荣耀洒向人类。我们欣喜于时光流转,使您能从光之圣殿的密室中现身。伟大的您,在您荣耀、和平与力量的威严中,洞察那些真诚追寻光明之人的内心。赐予他们力量!赋予他们勇气!凭借您,他们内在强大的神,让他们加快脚步,成为伟大神之光的使者。对光之儿女的内心诉说吧。坚定他们的信念,让他们在您的伟大荣耀中得到支撑。
I bring you Greetings from the Great Angelic Being who has been caused to look upon this humble effort to give forth Light, and who extends personal Greetings to you all.
我带来一位伟大天使存有(Great Angelic Being)的问候,他关注着这传播光明的谦卑努力,并向你们所有人致以亲切问候。
The Discourse
With the entrance of each great cycle there come certain presiding Beings of great import. You will know this Presence as a Being of Great Majesty, Power, and Light — through whom, at the height of all civilizations, has come the Power of Precipitation of Jewels of all kinds and of liquid Gold. This Presence represents the All-Seeing Eye to the Earth. Your request to know more of the Great Beings has been granted. It was through the Action of this Great Being and One from the Jade Temple whom you shall later know, that there was caused to come into form the 'Jade of Ahbor." Another such twin of the "Great Jade" will appear in America. It will be publicly known of at a later period. This entirely depends upon humanity — how soon they will turn, and where, to the Great Light.
随着每一个伟大周期的开启,都会有一些至关重要的主导存有出现。你们会将这个临在认知为一位拥有伟大威严、力量与光芒的存有 —— 在所有文明的鼎盛时期,正是通过他,各种珠宝和金水得以显化。这个临在对地球而言代表着全视之眼。你们想要更多了解这位伟大存有的请求已被应允。正是通过这位伟大存有的行动,以及一位来自翡翠圣殿(Jade Temple)、你们稍后会知晓的存有的行动,“阿博尔之玉”(Jade of Ahbor)得以形成。另一块与 “伟大之玉” 相似的玉石将在美国出现。它会在稍后被公众知晓。这完全取决于人类 —— 他们多快、向何处转向伟大的光明。
Beloved Children of the Light! Fix firmly in your minds, all of you, fix within your consciousness that the Mighty Presence of God in and about you is the only Intelligence, Presence, and Power governing the Universe. With this staunch, firm recognition and adherence to the Great Light, there is no Height you may not reach, no great service you may not render through this great Acknowledgement! It is your right to command and compel the outer to accept the full significance and magnificence of this great opportunity.
至爱的光之儿女们!你们所有人都要在心中牢牢铭记,在你们之内和周围的神的强大临在,是统治宇宙的唯一智慧、临在与力量。有了对伟大圣光这般坚定的认知与坚守,凭借这份伟大的认知,没有什么高度是你们无法企及的,没有什么伟大的服务是你们无法提供的!你们有权命令并迫使外在接受这一伟大机遇的全部意义和重要性。
You have reached a point where you can compel the outer obedience to the Great Light. And at this time, I say for the benefit of all Students who will take their stand and determine to serve the Great Light to the fullest of their ability, that they will receive a Mighty Sustaining Power, aside from their own effort to hold themselves steady in the Great Light! It is so foolish and childish for anyone who is sincerely interested in serving the Light to say that he cannot control his thought, feeling, and spoken word; for where the sincere effort is maintained, the greatest Assistance is sure to be given.
你们已经达到了一个阶段,能够迫使外在服从伟大的光明。此时,为了所有立志坚定地站出来、竭尽全力服务伟大光明的学生们,我要说,除了他们自身努力在伟大圣光中坚守之外,他们还将获得一股强大的支撑力量!任何真诚渴望服务光的人,若说自己无法控制思想、情感和言语,那是极其愚蠢和幼稚的;因为只要保持真诚的努力,就一定会得到最有力的帮助。
I congratulate you most sincerely in having drawn the Radiance and Attention that is now and will henceforth be continuously manifest to you. It is important to compel the feeling to accept the Great Truth of this, that it may not at any time waver and wonder how this Majestic Truth can be true. The accumulated good of centuries of effort is being stirred into activity in many sincere individuals who are de- termined to serve the Light.
我衷心地祝贺你们,你们吸引到了如今且今后将持续显化在你们身上的光芒与关注。让情感接受这一伟大真理至关重要,这样它就不会在任何时候动摇,疑惑这一庄严的真理如何成真。数个世纪努力积累的善,正在许多决心服务光明的真诚个体中被激发,开始发挥作用。
The words “I can't” or "have not" are to be forever wiped out of the vocabulary of the earnest Students of the Light! When they once know the Mighty Living Presence of God is the Life Energy flowing through their minds and bodies, they must know that there is no longer any excuse for the use of such words. These words are simply concoctions of the outer hu- man self to try to justify itself when, by its own acts, it has shut the Door of Light to itself and its world.
“我不能” 或 “我没有” 这样的词汇,应从认真的光之学生的词汇表中永远抹去!一旦他们知晓神那鲜活的强大临在,是流淌于他们心智和身体中的生命能量,他们就必须明白,再也没有借口使用这类词汇。这些词汇不过是外在人性自我的编造,当它因自身行为将光明之门对自己和自己的世界关闭时,就用这些词汇为自己辩解。
Having arrived at the full stature of manhood in Christ, we should be able to put away all childishness of doubts and fears, and leap into the Arms of that Majestic Conquering "Presence" in the Life of every individual, and accept Its full Manifesting Presence. The unwavering acceptance of the Limitless Presence and Activity of God, manifest in your outer experience, is the Miracle-working Power, and has long been waiting to pour forth Its great Abundance into your use.
在基督里达到成年的完全身量后,我们应当能够摒弃所有幼稚的怀疑和恐惧,投入每个人生命中那威严、征服一切的 “临在” 的怀抱,接受它全然显化的临在。坚定不移地接受神那无限的临在与活动,在你们的外在体验中显化,这是创造奇迹的力量,它长久以来都在等待,渴望将其丰富的恩赐倾注到你们的生活中供你们使用。
All human doubts and fears are fast being consumed and eliminated; and that makes it possible for this great Inner Abundance to rush forth like a mighty stream, bearing in Its Embrace the fullness of the "God Presence" into your use and experience. Consciously give full power to this feeling with all the joy at your Command: "How true and wonderful it is now, in my Life and world!"
人类所有的怀疑和恐惧正迅速被消耗和消除;这使得这一伟大的内在富足,能够像一股强大的洪流般奔涌而出,将“神之临在”的圆满带入你们的生活与体验中。带着你们所能唤起的所有喜悦,有意识地赋予这种感受充分的力量:“在我的生命和世界里,这是多么真实和美妙啊!”
This is an illustration of what tremendous things can be done, and what it means where one will make the sincere effort to maintain peace and harmony in the consciousness. If each of these individuals can and will feel the full import of this great Truth, marvels can take place in their experience - and will take place with this full acceptance. This is not a wish to intrude anything upon the Free Will of the individual, but is a statement of facts and the Eternal Truth concerning these Higher Manifestations. When We find that there are those Children of God who will accept, in confidence, small trusts, then in time they will find themselves recipients of great and mighty trusts. No one knows his or her strength until Sacred Trusts are given into his or her keeping.
这说明了,只要一个人真诚努力在意识中保持和平与和谐,就能成就多么了不起的事情,以及这意味着什么。如果这些人中的每一个都能且愿意感受到这一伟大真理的全部意义,奇迹就会在他们的经历中发生——而且只要他们完全接受,奇迹就一定会发生。这并非想要将任何事物强加于个人的自由意志,而是陈述事实,以及关于这些更高显化的永恒真理。当我们发现,有些神的儿女愿意满怀信心地承担小的责任时,假以时日,他们会发现自己肩负起伟大而重大的使命。直到被赋予神圣的使命,人们才知道自己的力量有多大。
Liquid Gold: Liquid Gold is sometimes precipitated for its emanation in Healing. It is very like quicksilver, only of gold; and its structure is very similar. As a rule in contacting this denser vibratory action, it always contains a shade of jade green. In its Higher Activity the green is hardly perceptible, and in this state it takes on a shade of light rose in place of the green. Whenever intense Raising Activity takes place, there is always this observation, yet rarely is the individual conscious of it.
金色液体:金色液体有时会被显化出来,用于疗愈,它具有治疗作用。它很像水银,只不过是金色的,其结构也非常相似。通常,在接触这种密度较高的振动时,它总会带有一丝翡翠绿。在其更高阶的活动中,绿色几乎难以察觉,此时它会呈现出淡淡的玫瑰色来取代绿色。每当有强烈的提升活动发生时,总会有这种现象,然而很少有人能意识到这一点。
I trust you can, each of you, feel this wonderful Radiation about you, filling you with this joyous feeling and adoration of that Great Light. Try to feel yourself a great fountain of It, pouring forth all the time, knowing that there is but the one Mighty Intelligence, "Presence," and Power of God acting through your mind and body. "I rejoice that 'I AM' free, forever free, from every limitation of the outer world."
我相信,你们每个人都能感受到围绕着自己的这奇妙的照耀,让这种喜悦的感受以及对那伟大光明的崇敬充满内心。试着把自己想象成这光芒的巨大源泉,不断地倾泻着光芒,要知道,只有一个强大的智慧、临在和力量,那就是神,正通过你们的心智和身体发挥作用。“我从外在世界的一切限制中永远解脱出来而喜悦。”
Use for pain in the head: "This thing is nothing! Therefore, there is nothing in me that can accept it. I know there is only the Mighty Presence of God acting in my mind and body. Therefore, in God's Activity there is no pain or disturbance." Many times if you begin to contemplate a source - something causing a disturbance - it gives it power. Sometimes it is necessary to know, but now we must take the stand not to accept anything of the negative. Give it no attention, therefore no power. The attention sometimes gives a thing power that we are not aware of. Lest one fall into a mistaken attitude, if there seems any unusual activity at any time, take the consciousness, "All of God's Activity within my mind and body is perfectly natural and normal." This balances the outer and avoids the misinterpretation of that which is really a blessing, into becoming a disturbance.
治疗头痛的方法:“这不算什么!因此,我身体里没有任何东西会接受它。我知道只有神的强大临在在我的心智和身体中运作。因此,在神的活动中不存在痛苦或干扰。” 很多时候,如果开始思考某个干扰源,就会赋予它力量。有时确实需要了解情况,但现在我们必须采取不接受任何负面事物的立场。不要关注它,也就不会赋予它力量。有时,我们没有意识到注意力会赋予事物力量。为避免陷入错误的态度,若任何时候出现不寻常的活动,要这样想:“我心智和身体内的所有神的活动都是完全自然和正常的。” 这能平衡外在,避免把实际上是祝福的事物误解为干扰。
Use this often: "There is only God in Action in my mind and body!" If there is a wrong thought about an experience, you neutralize or requalify it, and thus you lose its Blessing. In all of God's Activity in the Raising Process, it is impossible for It to contain any disturbing element unless the outer mind misinterprets it and requalifies it as a disturbance.
经常使用这句话:“在我的心智和身体中,只有神在行动!” 如果对某段经历有错误的想法,就会中和或改变它的性质,从而失去它的祝福。在神的所有提升过程的活动中,除非外在心智误解并将其重新定性为干扰,否则其中不可能包含任何干扰因素。
Remember: To avoid this, one should at all times, in feeling an unusual vibration within the mind or body, take this attitude about it: "How beautiful and glorious this feeling is, for I know it is God's Great Presence at work within me!" When you begin to consciously use this Energy of God within you, you are qualifying It in some manner all the time. So it behooves the Student to awaken to the fact that he cannot take anything for granted, for he is supposed to qualify whatever passes through the consciousness. This is why We suggested some time ago the use of a Mighty Truth: "There is no personality! There is only God in Action!" At that time We did not think it wise to give this explanation.
记住:为避免这种情况,当在心智或身体内感受到不寻常的振动时,应始终采取这样的态度:“这种感觉多么美妙和荣耀啊,因为我知道这是神的伟大临在在我体内运作!” 当你们开始有意识地运用体内的神之能量时,你们一直在以某种方式赋予它特定的性质。因此,学生们应该意识到,不能对任何事情想当然,因为他们应该赋予每一个经过意识的事物特定的性质。这就是为什么我们之前建议使用这个伟大的真理:“没有个性!只有神在行动!” 当时我们认为不宜给出这样的解释。
Question by Mrs. Ballard: "The idea conveyed by mythology that there were, at one time on this Earth, any such beings as the Cyclops is a mistake, is it not?"
巴拉德夫人的问题:“神话中所说的地球上曾存在独眼巨人(Cyclops)这样的生物,这是个错误的说法,对吗?”
Saint Germain: At no time have there ever been beings with the Spirit of God within them, with but a single eye. Such an idea was a distorted view concerning the former state of those beings who still retained the full function of the Third Eye or Inner Sight, like the X-ray. The All-Seeing Eye is the right conception of this state.
圣哲曼:从来没有体内有神之灵,却只有一只眼睛的生物。这种想法是对那些仍保留着第三只眼(或如 X 光般的内在视力)完整功能的生物以前状态的一种扭曲看法。全视之眼才是对这种状态的正确理解。
There was a time when those which are known today as the pineal gland and pituitary body were one. They were the All-Seeing Eye. The skull or brain structure, which was of denser substance, was in nowise any obstruction to the use and activity of this Inner Eye that really looks in all directions. To the All-Seeing Eye, no form is an obstruction to the Vision. At all times the All-Seeing Eye has the form of an eye as you know it today. The greatly dimmed activity of that function, even today, causes you to sense a presence behind you as well as head of you.
曾经,如今被称为松果体(pineal gland)和脑垂体(pituitary body)的器官是一体的。它们就是全视之眼。当时,头骨或大脑结构的物质密度较大,但这丝毫不会妨碍这只真正能看向各个方向的内在之眼的使用和活动。对于全视之眼而言,任何形式都不会阻碍其视野。全视之眼在任何时候都具有你们如今所熟知的眼睛的形状。即使在今天,这个功能的活动已大大减弱,但仍会让你们感觉到身后和身前有某种存在。
At this previous time as the Soul drew into denser form, it required the activity of an arc, as it were, by which the two activities in conjunction stepped down the activity of this Inner Vision. This sparking broke the image of the vision, the same as an arc breaks up the current; and instead of a steady flow, it was in intermittent jumps. This causes the present intermittent activity. This became necessary as the outer form reached a certain density not wise to explain at present. If there could be a continual flow or connection of Light between the pituitary body and the pineal gland, we could see everywhere and through all things at all times. This is really the Inner Sight! This would be the same activity as when they were one - or in other words, unite them into their oneness again. When one can visualize the two as the All-Seeing Eye within, wonders might take place.
在那个时候,随着灵魂进入密度更高的身体,需要一种类似电弧的活动,通过这种活动,两个器官共同协作,降低内在视力的活动强度。这种 “火花” 会打破视觉图像,就像电弧会破坏电流一样;于是,视觉不再是稳定的流动,而是间歇性的跳跃。这就导致了如今视觉的间歇性活动。当外在身体达到一定密度时,这种变化就变得必要了,目前暂不解释其中的原因。如果松果体和脑垂体之间能有持续的光流或连接,我们就能随时随地看到所有事物,看透一切。这才是真正的内在视力!这与它们合为一体时的活动是相同的 —— 换句话说,就是让它们再次合为一体。当一个人能将这两者想象成内在的全视之眼时,奇迹就可能发生。
The child with the X-ray eyes: In this case the pulsation between the pineal gland and the pituitary body has become so frequent that the flow is almost continuous. In all forms where the Power of the All-Seeing Eye is used, the shape of the human eye is retained as we have it today. In any thought of this, think of it always as the All-Seeing Eye, complete, in the top of the head - taking the place of the pineal gland and pituitary body, or as having these two organs within it.
拥有 X 光般视力的孩子:在这种情况下,松果体和脑垂体之间的脉动变得非常频繁,几乎形成了持续的光流。在所有使用全视之眼力量的形态中,都会保留我们如今人类眼睛的形状。在想到这个的时候,要始终把它想象成位于头顶的全视之眼,完整无缺 —— 取代松果体和脑垂体的位置,或者将这两个器官包含在其中。
In this Eye within is the Perfect, Eternal Sight of Almighty God. A mental picture of anything, with this power back of it, must be propelled into outer form because it is God Power moving through it. This is how the images we see with our physical eyes are registered on the brain. Therefore, make your pictures within. Your eyes are the camera of the Soul. The activity of the vision in the mind acts just the opposite of the activity of the eyes, or physical sight.
在这只内在之眼中,有着全能神完美、永恒的视力。任何带有这种力量的心理图像,必然会被推进到外在形式中,因为这是神的力量在其中运作。这就是我们用肉眼看到的图像如何在大脑中被记录下来的原理。因此,在内心构建图像吧。你们的眼睛是灵魂的相机。心智中的视觉活动与眼睛的物理视觉活动正好相反。
The secret of manifesting things into the world without, is in using the Spiritual Power to take this picture. Then the Great Silence precipitates it into form through the visualized picture. Through the activity of visualizing, you print the form or picture upon the Great Silence; and the Great Silence, which is the greatest Power in the Universe, propels it into outer expression and experience. Now you can understand how impossible it is for a picture registered on the Inner Silence not to come forth.
将事物显化到外在世界的秘密,在于运用精神力量构建这个图像。然后,伟大的寂静(the Great Silence)会通过这个可视化的图像将其显化出来。通过可视化的活动,你们将形式或图像印刻在伟大的寂静之上;而伟大的寂静是宇宙中最强大的力量,它会将其推进到外在的表达和体验中。现在你们就能理解,印刻在内在寂静上的图像是不可能不显现出来的。
It is the business of the intellect and will, to hold the picture steady until the impression is taken by the Great Silence. If it is not held steady, the result is the same as if you moved your camera while taking an outer picture in ordinary photography. This is the Power of true Precipitation.
让图像保持稳定,直到被伟大的寂静接收,这是理智和意志的职责。如果图像不稳定,结果就如同在普通摄影中拍照时移动了相机一样。这就是真正显化(Precipitation)的力量。
You do have all power within your consciousness to mold your mind and body or any of its parts or attributes into anything you wish. Meditate on this incessantly. Contemplate this matter of vision often enough to set it in mind - in action - and use it. This release of Truth and conviction is tremendous! Never forget it! Use it more and more all the time. This is the Inner Power that knows Its own and is waiting to do these things for you all the time. A tremendous Power has been generated here today. This conviction you now have, you can use with great power.
你们的意识中确实拥有一切力量,能将你们的心智、身体或其任何部分或属性塑造为你们想要的任何样子。不断思考这个问题。经常思考视觉这个问题,让它在你们的脑海中扎根并付诸行动,运用它。这种对真理的领悟和信念的释放是巨大的!永远不要忘记这一点!要越来越多地运用它。这是一股知晓自身力量的内在力量,一直在等待为你们做这些事情。今天在这里,一股强大的力量被激发出来。你们现在拥有的这种信念,能被有力地运用。
Warning: After I have given the Explanation of the Law and you have received the Inner Power and conviction, do not discuss it, for you scatter the Power which would accomplish the full Manifestation. You have the vision, the power, and the ability to apply this. Now do it! The Power of Precipitation is one of the mightiest activities of this wonderful Presence who is radiating to you today. You have been shown how Precipitation through vision takes place. Use: "Great 'Presence,' completely and entirely reveal this Activity of Visualization and Precipitation into physical form to me now. Teach me all about This, and see that I always use It to fulfill the Divine Plan, to the Glory of God and the Blessing and Service of all His Creation."
警告:在我解释了法则,你们获得了内在力量和信念之后,不要去讨论它,因为你们会分散那能实现完全显化的力量。你们有愿景、力量和能力去运用它。现在就行动吧!显化的力量是今天向你们照耀的这一奇妙临在的最强大活动之一。你们已经了解了通过视觉进行显化的过程。使用这句话:“伟大的‘临在’,现在就向我完全、彻底地揭示这种可视化和显化为物质形式的活动。教导我关于它的一切,确保我始终运用它来实现神的计划,荣耀神,并为他所有的造物带来祝福和服务。”
BENEDICTION: Thou Mighty "Presence," We leap forth to Thee in great devotion and recognition of Thy Presence with Us. We know, feel, and have the full conviction of Thy Presence eternally with Us, and that Thou wilt teach us the fullness of Thy Activity manifest in form.
祝福:您,强大的 “临在”,我们怀着极大的虔诚向您靠近,认可您与我们同在。我们知晓、感受并完全确信您永恒地与我们同在,您会教导我们您在形式中显化的全部活动。
