寧靜的心跡(126) 了解生存的意義


人生就像一趟火車旅程,但有些人不知道自己的目的地,也不知道為何上車。當他們到達終點站,仍不知道下一步該做甚麼。不懂得如何下火車,是因為他們沒有想過為何會在火車裡。

對很多人來說都是如此。雖然每天都在生活,而且也很怕死,但卻對人生意義一無所知。有些人會突然問自己:"我來世上是為了甚麼?我的未來會是怎樣?",這些人可能繼續在火車上昏睡,或者會開始焦慮不安。

如果沒有解答好這些問題,生命就缺少了根基,人生也因此顯得蒼白無力。根基對生命至關重要,它決定了我們生活的目標。如果沒有根基,就好像到處流浪,而不知道哪裡可以停留,讓人感到虛無和擔憂。

唯有對生存意義有所理解,生命才能變得強壯有力。只有懂得如何活得更好,生命才能不斷繁衍。我們的意識從事物的意義中產生,若沒有對意義的理解,意識就無從成長,而一切意義都從屬於生存意義。因此,如何理解生存的意義,決定了我們意識的深度。

然而,即使大部份人都在昏睡中,火車上總有一些清醒的人。只要向這些人請教,我們就可以得知這趟火車的資訊。我們還可以參考這些人的足跡,調整自己目的地或行進的方向。

在追尋人生意義的道路上,我們最需要的是了解生命存在於世上的原因,以及發展的方向。有了這個理解,我們才能真正體會到自己內心對生存的渴望,從而學會如何生活,如何發展和追求,並發現對我們至關重要的事物。

The path to Tranquility (126) Understand the meaning of survival


Life is like a train journey, but some people don't know their destination or why they got on the train in the first place. When they arrive at the final stop, they still don't know what to do next. They don't know how to get off the train because they never thought about why they were in it.

Although they live every day and are afraid of death, they have no idea of ​​the meaning of life. Some people will suddenly ask themselves: "Why did I come to this world? What will my future be like?" These people may either continue to fall lethargy in the train or start to feel anxious.

Without answering well these questions, life will lack a foundation, and life will therefore appear pale and feeble. Foundation is crucial to life, as it determines the goals we pursue. Without a foundation, it's like wandering around without knowing where to stay, which makes people feel emptiness and worry.

Only by understanding the meaning of survival can life become strong and powerful. Only by knowing how to live better can life continue to multiply. Our consciousness arises from the meaning of things, and without an understanding of meaning, our consciousness cannot grow, and all meanings are subordinate to the meaning of survival. Therefore, how we understand the meaning of survival determines the depth of our consciousness.

However, even if most people are asleep, there are always some awake people on the train. Just by consulting these people, we can get information about this train. We can also refer to their footprints to adjust our destination or direction of travel.

On the road to pursuing the meaning of life, what we need most is an understanding of why life exists in the world and its direction to development. With this understanding, we can truly appreciate our inner desire for survival, learn how to live, how to develop and pursue, and discover the things that are essential to us.
