Yesterday I watched Sadhguru’s video, and he said, “Every hour, remind yourself that Wow I am still alive”.
I’ve seen him talk about this method before, and he said that every day when you wake up, you should celebrate that you are still alive and give yourself a big smile.
I’ve tried before, but I couldn’t smile at the world at all when I woke up.
But today I suddenly realized that I’m actually thankful every day that my cat and dog have lived another healthy day, because they are a little old and may get sick and die at any time.
The reason why I can’t celebrate myself, my parents, and the people I care about for being alive is because I know that the life span of humans is usually at least 70 years old, and it is not a rare thing to be alive now.
So this morning, for the first time, I deeply felt that it is actually a miracle that the people I care about are alive every day.
Later at night, I realized that I might die the next moment, I wouldn’t say things or do things against my heart anymore.
我想分享一个我今天的体会。
昨天我看萨古鲁的视频,他说every hour remind yourself that Wow I am still alive. 这个方法以前就看他讲过,他说每天醒来要庆祝自己还活着,给自己一个大大的微笑。
我以前醒来试过,可是根本无法对这个世界微笑。但今天我忽然意识到,我其实每天都在庆幸我的猫和狗又健康活了一天,因为他们年纪有些大了随时可能生病死去。而我之所以不能庆祝我自己和我父母和我关心的人还活着,是因为我知道人类的寿命通常至少在70岁,现在还能活着并非很稀罕的一件事。
于是我今天上午第一次深刻感受到,我在乎的人每天都活着其实是奇迹。
而以前之所以会做违心的事说违心的话,也是因为没有意识到我下一刻就会死。
如果意识到我会死,如果意识到下一刻我可能就会死,我就不会再说违心的话、做违心的事了。因为根本没有时间可以去浪费。
可以是很小的违心的事情:比如做老好人,不在乎自己的真实感受。
