透過經驗、想像和一些視角，我們構建了一個獨特的主觀世界。這是人生不可或缺的一部份。然而，主觀世界也會限制我們對客觀或現實世界的認識，甚至導致我們與別人之間產生誤會和衝突。因此，我們要努力打開心扉，走出自己的主觀世界，讓自己更自由地生活在現實世界中。
在主觀世界中，我們的感知並不穩定，與客觀現實有很大的差異。有時一點恐懼，或一次情緒低潮，就會導致我們將朋友變成敵人。而且，這種轉變往往是由想像力驅動的。
真實世界也在不斷變化，如果無法自覺地走出主觀世界的束縛，我們的理智就會陷入一種幻覺，無法有效處理現實世界中的事物。即使能夠暫時逃出幻境並回到現實，如果沒有過去的基礎，我們的理性也會無法發揮作用。
理性是我們與別人建立真誠連結的關鍵。我們的情感能力差異很大，而且不穩定。如果加入太多的主觀元素，我們與別人建立的關係必然會變得薄弱或鬆散。只有理智和意識才是人類共通的屬性，才能成為我們連結和融合的真正基礎。
另一方面，如果每個人都活在自己的主觀世界裡，我們就會活在不同的世界。即使坐在一起，有些人也可能在懷念過去，所以活在過去的世界。有些人可能在想像未來，活在一個尚未到來的時空。這樣，他們就無法真正相處。
過去已成為我們模糊的記憶，未來只是想像中的虛構。這些都是自我中心的基礎，可能導致我們忽視或排斥別人的觀點。因此，只有活在當下，我們才能處於同一個時空，超越自我，將自己的自由和幸福與別人連結起來。
此時此地的一切，都不屬於任何人。一旦意識到這一點，我們就可以放下自己的偏見和習慣。這樣，我們也能擺脫主觀世界的孤獨，與別人自然而真實地共存，並共享生命的一切。
只有共享生命，我們才能真正生活在一起。許多夫妻在同一個房子住了幾十年，卻活在兩個不同的世界，導致許多衝突與痛苦。雖然他們逐漸學會了避免爭吵，呈現出和睦家庭的形象，但這樣的一起生活卻很不真實。
然而，除非在當下共同體驗的生活，否則我們無法真正相知和相愛。在主觀世界中，孤獨的心靈不在當下，所以無法產生真正的愛與歸屬感。愛也來自我們對生命時空的意識。它是我們在人生旅途中與別人共同創造的美好事物，也是我們精神家園永恆的光芒。

Get out of our own subjective world
Through experience, imagination and some perspectives, we construct a unique subjective world. This is an integral part of life. However, the subjective world can also limit our understanding of the objective or real world, and even lead to misunderstandings and conflicts between us and others. Therefore, we must work hard to open our hearts, step out of our own subjective world, and allow ourselves to live more freely in the real world.
In the subjective world, our perceptions are not stable and differ greatly from objective reality. Sometimes a little fear, or an emotional low, can cause us to turn our friends into enemies. Moreover, this transformation is often driven by imagination.
The real world is also constantly changing. If we cannot consciously step out of the shackles of the subjective world, our reason will fall into an illusion and cannot effectively deal with things in the real world. Even if we could temporarily escape the illusion and return to reality, our rationality would be unable to function without a foundation in the past.
Reason is the key to building authentic connections with others. Our emotional abilities vary widely and are unstable. If too many subjective elements are added, the relationships we build with others are bound to become weak or loose. Only reason and consciousness are the common attributes of human beings and can become the real basis for our connection and integration.
On the other hand, if everyone lived in their own subjective world, we would live in different worlds. Even sitting together, some people may be missing the past and therefore living in the world of the past. Some people may be imagining the future, living in a time and space that has not yet arrived. This way, they can't really get along.
The past has become a blur in our memories and the future is just a figment of our imagination. These are the foundations of egocentric and can lead us to ignore or exclude other people’s perspectives. Therefore, only by living in the present can we be in the same time and space, transcend ourselves, and connect our freedom and happiness with others.
Everything here and now belongs to no one. Once we realize this, we can let go of our own biases and habits. In this way, we can also get rid of the loneliness of the subjective world, coexist naturally and truly with others, and share everything in life.
Only by sharing life can we truly live together. Many couples live in the same house for decades but live in two different worlds, leading to much conflict and pain. Although they gradually learned to avoid quarrels and presented the image of a harmonious family, living together like this was unreal.
However, we cannot truly know and love each other unless we experience life together in the present moment. In the subjective world, a lonely mind is not in the present moment, so it cannot produce a true sense of love and belonging. Love also comes from our awareness of the time and space of life. It is the beautiful thing we create together with others in the journey of life, and it is also the eternal light of our spiritual home.
