人類革命
• When I was going through some of my hardest times, perhaps it would have
felt easier to give in to quick fixes, like smoking, alcohol, or drugs.
當我經歷一些最艱難的時期時，也許屈服於快速解決方案會更
容易，比如吸煙、喝酒或吸毒。

但我選擇向內看//觀，我選擇了自我激勵。
• I went to my spiritual side for help, studying and practicing Buddhism, which
made me strong.

a plant-based diet, and holistic remedies.

revolution,

• We remain stuck in the lower worlds—consumed by ego, fears, and
desires in the shallow realm of our lesser self.
我們仍然被困在低級世界——被自我、恐懼和慾望所吞
噬，停留在我們小自我的淺層領域。

9. • But when we do our best to lift ourselves up by increasing our self-
love, thoughtfulness, and kindness in all our behaviors,
但是，當我們盡最大努力通過在所有行為中增加我們的
自愛、體貼和善良來提升自己時，
• we can then live out a true revolution of the heart.

yet deluded, belief that

world, our environment, our economies, our politics, or our social
structures.

而忽視了真正價值的來源——我們自己的內心。

global human revolution.

中逐漸改變是一種更典型的過程。

然而，我通過自己的經驗發現
• that human revolution arises when we accelerate our typical pace of
growth and undergo a relatively rapid change for the better.
