認識自己

Gospel of Thomas

Jesus said, "If your leader say you 'Look,the Kingdom is in heaven,' then the birds of the heaven will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the Kingdom is inside you and outside you. When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will understand that you are children of the living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you are in poverty, and you are poverty.


湯瑪士福音

我聽聞耶穌說：『如果你們的領導人對你們說：「看哪，天國在空中，」那麼空中的鳥就會超越你們。如果他們對你們說，「天國在海裡，」那麼海裡的魚就會超越你們。其實，天國在你的裡面，也在你的外面。當你認識你自己，你的本質就會被認出來，而你將會了解到，你是活生生之父的兒子。反之，如果你不認識你自己，你就會處在貧困裡，同時你就是貧困。』
