近来重读《一的法则》英文原版，温故而知新。以下为特别有感悟的片段（我也许会不定期更新，取决于我阅读的速度）：

=============================================

Questioner: For the general development of the reader of this book, could
you state some of the practices or exercises to perform to produce an
acceleration toward the Law of One?

illusion or density. The exercise is to consciously see that love in awareness
and understanding distortions. The first attempt is the cornerstone. Upon
6 s3 W. y; s' Y( l: Hthis choosing rests the remainder of the life-experience of an entity. The
0 O8 G; k. I1 t3 @+ P1 t& J! w: l0 Ysecond seeking of love within the moment begins the addition. The third

the conscious statement of self to self of the desire to seek love is so central

inconsequential.

Exercise Two. The universe is one being. When a mind/body/spirit

an helpful exercise.

Exercise Four. Gaze at the creation which lies about the mind/body/spirit
complex of each entity. See the Creator.

The foundation or prerequisite of these exercises is a predilection towards
what may be called meditation, contemplation, or prayer. With this

body and touching the spirit.

Questioner: We have decided to accept, if offered, the honor/duty of
8 ^3 ^- z: V; y' ]learning/teaching the healing process. I would ask as to the first step which
we should accomplish in becoming effective healers.

Ra: I am Ra. We shall begin with the first of the three teachings/learnings.
: z& C. Z5 b( j" P0 r* q9 M  E
; I6 M" b! O4 D; ]2 `We begin with the mental learn/teaching necessary for contact with
( r. j8 |# a3 B: [intelligent infinity. The prerequisite of mental work is the ability to retain
  U$ y0 x5 f2 z) Bsilence of self at a steady state when required by the self. The mind must be
8 A3 n3 r3 F9 Z6 L4 D/ v/ |: _4 ~opened like a door. The key is silence.

2 Y" H5 X2 ]8 j7 k& N+ H, [% I% tWithin the door lies an hierarchical construction you may liken unto
6 I9 K- Y- m: C. ngeography and in some ways geometry, for the hierarchy is quite regular,
2 O+ v. N( H1 C8 obearing inner relationships.

To begin to master the concept of mental disciplines it is necessary to
examine the self. The polarity of your dimension must be internalized.
Where you find patience within your mind you must consciously find the
5 z: G+ [/ A" J- t+ f5 u1 B: [corresponding impatience and vice versa. Each thought a being has, has in
its turn an antithesis. The disciplines of the mind involve, first of all,
identifying both those things of which you approve and those things of
which you disapprove within yourself, and then balancing each and every
  ~0 J3 X. p1 u, r% o  [0 I2 J# ~. Gpositive and negative charge with its equal. The mind contains all things.
Therefore, you must discover this completeness within yourself.

# }* b7 S  p* F3 l8 _  D$ oThe second mental discipline is acceptance of the completeness within your
5 h: i% B( [0 K. u; I  u( {consciousness. It is not for a being of polarity in the physical consciousness
$ m# Q7 c2 T0 O0 R6 ito pick and choose among attributes, thus building the roles that cause
blockages and confusions in the already distorted mind complex. Each
acceptance smoothes part of the many distortions that the faculty you call
7 H3 f$ R4 b, ]$ q* Fjudgment engenders.

% g; G/ h: M, ]' g& k/ k& e( b1 oThe third discipline of the mind is a repetition of the first but with the gaze
+ k1 |2 e9 {1 s6 f; _outward toward the fellow entities that it meets. In each entity there exists
completeness. Thus, the ability to understand each balance is necessary.
$ t4 F( b- e! I; ^5 ~* J8 a( wWhen you view patience, you are responsible for mirroring in your mental
0 W; m. ~" d5 Xunderstandings, patience/impatience. When you view impatience, it is
# F0 U  K  n) x" E( cnecessary for your mental configuration of understanding to be
; {  o& y) Y- j1 \' }! C4 nimpatience/patience. We use this as a simple example. Most configurations
of mind have many facets, and understanding of either self polarities, or
what you would call other-self polarities, can and must be understood as
+ X, N- O9 V/ |% ~1 B3 _subtle work.
1 l, r# ^  U4 k) s' R
The next step is the acceptance of the other-self polarities, which mirrors
7 o; Y' ]. ^7 y8 ]. V* Q3 ?the second step. These are the first four steps of learning mental disciplines.
1 ~7 s: A8 N+ g  O$ p& ?* @1 m! ~
6 g/ g3 P7 |+ e9 Y. U0 f+ \1 oThe fifth step involves observing the geographical and geometrical

the infinite mind.
7 s* T0 |" ]( k3 y+ a
The second area of learn/teaching is the study/understanding of the body
complexes. It is necessary to know your body well. This is a matter of using
the mind to examine how the feelings, the biases, what you would call the
. N& @9 ^, j8 \2 U0 x/ nemotions, affect various portions of the body complex. It shall be necessary
% H# I# Z) y) i8 Q+ mto both understand the bodily polarity and to accept them, repeating in a
chemical/physical manifestation the work you have done upon the mind

The body is a creature of the mind’s creation. It has its biases. The
biological bias must be first completely understood and then the opposite
bias allowed to find full expression in understanding. Again, the process of
acceptance of the body as a balanced, as well as polarized, individual may
% O$ V7 ^, u# jthen be accomplished. It is then the task to extend this understanding to the
* P) Q% f) j8 j2 e! ]; R$ Tbodies of the other-selves whom you will meet.

0 g3 K, k+ g7 x& Y2 _& x9 P2 ?' WThe simplest example of this is the understanding that each biological male
is female; each biological female is male. This is a simple example. However,
in almost every case wherein you are attempting the understanding of the
2 ?0 c  G, e5 I% `; p  E) Lbody of self or other-self, you will again find that the most subtle
