宇宙的活力

"撕塞"老人:
「
真正的靈性是一件喜悅的而且入世的（屬於"酋地"的）事，
與成人的假正經毫不相干，
與冗長的話和充滿悲愁的面孔也毫不相干。

它卻的確與在你內的意識之舞有關，
以及在你心裡的心靈探險的感覺有關。

我願在村裡跳一個快活的舞，
好讓你明白你的活力並不倚賴一個表面的肉身形象。

它既不倚賴你的年歲，
也不倚賴你的身體。

這活力，響出來及唱出來，貫徹這宇宙，
貫徹你整個人格。

這是一種喜悅感，使得所有的創造成為可能。

因此，當你拉長了臉時
不要以為你是富有靈性，
當你為你的罪而貶低自己時
不要以為你是靈性。

村落的季節來而復往，
不論你以為你是罪人或聖人，
太陽仍照在你臉上。

你並不需要為你的存在辯護。

好比說，
你並不需要藉由做某些你自己不喜歡的事
來為你自己辯護。

存在就是它自己的最佳理由，根本不需要辯護。

宇宙的活力就是創造性、喜悅和愛，
而那即靈性。

充分的體驗它吧！

而你真的需要我這樣的一個老頭來告訴你生命是什麼嗎？！
」


寶弟：
「
我親愛的"撕塞"老人，
你真的是活了
九百九十五億八千八百六十一萬三千七百五十三年
的老人嗎？！
...
你比我年輕！！

Seth speaks,
"
True spirituality is a thing of joy and of "the earth",
and has nothing to do with fake adult dignity.
It has nothing to do with long words and sorrowful faces.
It has to do with the dance of consciousness that is within you,
and with the sense of spiritual adventure that is within your hearts.
It is not dependent upon your youth, it is not dependent upon your body.
It rings and sings through the universe, and through your entire personality.

It is a sense of joy that makes all creativity probable.

So do not think you are being spiritual
when you are being long-faced,
and do not think you are being spiritual
when you berate yourself for your sins.

The seasons within your village come and go.
The sun falls upon your face
wheteher you think you are a sinner or a saint.

There is no need to justify your existence.
You do not need to do what you don't like
to justify yourselves, for instance.

Being is its own justification.

The vitality of the universe is creativity and joy and love,
and that is spirituality.

Experience it fully!

And, do you need an old man like me to tell you what life is?

My dear Seth,

Are you really such an old man
living for ninety-nine billion years more?
...
You are younger than me!!
