living in the present 活在当下

OJAI 8TH PUBLIC TALK 25TH JUNE, 1934
1934年6月25日 欧亥 第8次公众谈话

Krishnamurti: What is living fully in the present? I will try again to explain what I mean. A mind that is in conflict, in struggle, is continually seeking an escape; either the memory of the past unconsciously precipitates itself in the mind, or the mind deliberately turns back into the past and lives in the delight of that past, which is one form of escape. Or else the mind in conflict, in struggle, which is without understanding, seeks a future, a future that you call a belief, a goal, a culmination, an achievement, a success, and escapes to that. It is the function of memory to be cunning and to escape from the present. This process of looking back is but one of the tricks of memory which you call self-analysis, which but perpetuates memory, and therefore limits and confines the mind, banishing intelligence.
克：什么是完全活在当下？我会再次尝试表达我的意思。一个处于冲突、挣扎的心智，是在持续寻找某种逃避：要么过去的记忆在不知不觉中把自己沉淀在心智中，或者心智有意回溯过去，活在过去的喜悦中——那是一种形式的逃避——要么，处于冲突、挣扎中，不了解真相的心智，寻求某种未来，某种你称为信仰、目标、终点、成就、成功的未来，逃向那种未来。狡猾和逃离当下，正是记忆的功能。这种回溯过去的过程，只是你称为自我分析的记忆的诡计之一，它只是延续记忆，从而限定心智、摒弃智慧。
So there are these various forms of escape, and when mind has ceased to escape through memory, when memory no longer clouds the mind and heart, there is then that ecstasy of living in the present. This can only be when mind is no longer taking delight in the past or the future, when mind does not create division; in other words, when that supreme intelligence which is truth, which is beauty, which is love itself, is functioning normally, without effort - then in that state intelligence is timeless, and then there is not this fear of not living in the present.
因此存在这各种各样的逃避，而当心智停止通过记忆逃避，当记忆不再像乌云一样笼罩心智和心灵时，那种活在当下的狂喜就会出现。唯有当心智不再在过去或未来中取得喜悦，唯有当心智不再制造区分——换句话说，唯有当那种作为真理、作为美、作为爱本身的智慧，正常不费力地运作——唯有那时，这种狂喜才能出现；那时在那种状态中，智慧是永恒的，并且在那时，不存在这种对‘不活在当下’的恐惧。
