3 文化加油站(心灵鸡汤)

Listen to Your Inner Voice

Is there inside you? Very much, ever since you were brought into this world. When you couldn’t open your mouth till the first two years on planet earth, inner voice is the one through which you interpret ed and understood things.

Inner voice is the voice mouth of the subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is always acting as a secondary reflector of thoughts and ideas in the body. It justifies and rationalize s what is right and what is wrong. When we go against what the inner voice say we get a guilty conscious and are bothered by it throughout our lives.

At times when we are feeling low or those unforgettable moments when we are let down, we seem to need some kind of emotional or mental support. We usually speak to our closest pal or our dearest family member during times of distress to ease the burden. At such times we get over the initial drizzle of emotional anxiety and mental restlessness , because of the pepping up by our empathic listener. we suddenly feel rejuvenate d because our inner voice alert s us to get on with things and leave the things of past on the memory books of our brain.

The inner voice is always right most of the times because it knows us better than others and probably even ourselves. It is the dare devil child of the intuition s which we have been having since childhood. It’s good to go by intuitions most of the time because it is the response provided due to the synchronism between our mental and physical being.

Whenever you are trying your first cigarette,or whenever you are asked to take sides in an argument, you are always in a sense of dilemma . During these times your inner voice automatically gives its verdict , which when over written, might leave us unhappy in the future. It’s up to us to either ignore the morale booster inside us or go out to the world and search for spiritual guru ’s and happiness, when all these things are very much present within us.

参考译文

倾听心声

从我们来到这个世界的那一刻起,请仔细聆听你的心灵。在来到这个世界的最初的两年里,我们还不能开口讲话,心灵是我们理解事物的一种方式。

心灵是诉说潜意识的嘴,潜意识一直是思想和情感的反映。它控制着是与非,黑与白。当我们违心地做了某件事情,我们会有一种负罪感,并且在一生当中还会时时为这种感觉所烦恼。

有时,当情绪低落、感觉失望的时候,我们需要某种情绪或精神的支柱。通常我们沮丧的时候,我们讲给我们最好的朋友或家人听,以减轻我们的压力。在那时候,我们克服了情绪的不安和焦虑,因为有了为我们打气的听众。我们迅速地恢复了活力,因为我们内心深处告诉我们,处理好一切,把那些烦恼都放在回忆里去吧。

心灵在大部分时候都是正确无误的,因为它比任何人都要了解我们,甚至超过我们自己。它是我们从孩提时代一直伴随我们直觉的孩子。遵从直觉是有好处的,因为它来自于我们的精神和现实之间的同步的反应。

当想学着抽第一支烟的时候,当不得不在一个争论里支持一方的时候,你总感到为难。在那个时候,心灵会自动地做出判断,夸张地说,会给我们将来留下不快。当我们面临这些问题的时候,我们该决定是否忽略我们内心的道德推动或者接触这个世界来寻找精神领袖和快乐。 m3+uKPMx8ByhKq/CN8lvP9My1Z9jjREiwXQRGdM1z403gFyi3yNCgUoSlAa3N1ra
