Respect 尊敬(38)

Note: Every week from 1995, Guruji started sending out knowledge sheets which he fondly called the 'Knowledge Fax' to be read out and discussed at Satsangs happening all around the world. Guruji ended this delightful practice at the 365th week in September 2002, so as to let us fully digest them! These knowledge sheets have been compiled into An Intimate Note To The Sincere Seeker Volumes 1-7. I began the practice of posting a Knowledge Sheet every week for the benefit of those who have not had the opportunity to get hold of these priceless books. It had never cease to uplift me by reading and rereading this knowledge. So I know you would certainly enjoy them!

注:从 1995年开始,古儒吉开始每一个星期寄出他称为‘智慧传真’的智慧语录以供在世界各地举行的唱场阅读与分享。大师在2002年9月,也就是第365周结束了这个做法,让我们好好的消化和实践这些智慧。这些智慧语录已收录为7本书:古儒吉大师智慧语录(1-7集)。我开始每个星期刊登一篇智慧语录,以供还没有机会买到这几本宝贵的书籍的学员分享。不断阅读这些智慧语录让我得益不浅。所以我知道其他人也会有很大的收获。

Why do you respect someone?

Because of their good qualities, right? Like honesty, wisdom, love, talents, behaviours. But all these change in time. And when they change, you lose respect. You only respect greatness.

I have tremendous respect for each and everyone. Not for their greatness or wisdom or talent, but for their very person. I respect everyone totally. So I can never lose respect for anybody, howsoever they may be.

One doesn't need to be great in order to be respected.

Respecting life itself makes you great.

Don't look for respect from others; that makes you weak.

Have respect for your Self and no one can take away your self-respect.

你为何尊敬某人?因为他们好的特质,不是吗?像诚实、智慧、慈爱、天份、行为。但当他们改变时,你就是失去了尊敬。你只尊敬伟大。
我对人怀着崇高的敬意,不在于他们的伟大或智慧或天份,而是在于他们这个人。我完全尊敬每个人,因此不管他们怎么样,我从不会失去对他们的尊敬。
人无需伟大以获得尊敬。尊敬生命使你伟大。
不要期望得到别人的尊敬,那会使你软弱。
尊重你的本我则无人能夺走你的自尊。
