Peace can sometimes be so far away,and inner bliss…even farther away.Take the time now to spend some real quality time by going within.Find that sense of peace that lies within.Visit the place where inner bliss dwells and waits patiently for your return.
平静有时可能是如此遥远，而内心的喜悦......甚至更遥远。现在就花点时间，花点时间进入状态，享受真正的高质量时光。找到内在的平静感。访问内在极乐居住的地方，耐心地等待你的回归。
Let yourself unwind and compose yourself for a few precious moments of peace.Remember that your mind is much more far-reaching than your physical brain.Your mind,as consciousness,is nonphysical,while your brain is just the physical translator of your consciousness.
让自己放松下来，让自己平静下来，享受一些珍贵的平静时刻。记住，你的思想比你的物理大脑更为深远。你的意识，作为意识，是非物质的，而你的大脑只是你意识的物质转换器。
Your mind,therefore,always has the ability to tell your brain;
因此，你的头脑总是有能力告诉你的大脑;
"Shsh!It's meditation time!"
"嘘!现在是冥想时间!"
Focus your mind away from the clutter of day-to-day living and turn your attention inwards to the peaceful core of your inner being.Then think of the deepest possible state of consciousness.
把你的注意力从日常生活的混乱中转移出来，把你的注意力转向你内心平静的核心。然后思考最深层次的意识状态。
And what could that state be?
那会是什么样的状态呢？
It is the state of consciousness known as Infinite Being.The word Infinite reflects the idea of ultimate,while the word Being refers to a state of awareness,rather than a doing activity.Infinite Being is infinite consciousness without a focus upon any specific activity.
这是一种被称为无限存在的意识状态。无限这个词反映了终极的概念，而存在这个词指的是一种意识状态，而不是一种行动。无限存在是无限的意识，没有对任何特定活动的关注。
Infinite Being doesn't have to do anything,it already is everything.
无限的存在不需要做任何事情，它已经是一切。
It is important to appreciate that the state of Infinite Being is not"out there"somewhere external to us.Infinite Being encompasses all consciousness,including all manifestation.We are that consciousness,as is everything else in existence.
重要的是要明白，无限存在的状态不是"在那里"，在我们之外的某个地方。无限的存在包含了所有的意识，包括所有的显化。我们就是那个意识，就像存在的其他一切事物一样。
The Most Powerful Affirmation
最有力的肯定
In meditation practices,affirmations are often used to focus the mind.By simply repeating the words,"I am,"you affirm your true nature as consciousness.In the case of the Infinite Being meditation,we affirm our innermost identity as the ultimate,infinite consciousness.
在冥想练习中，自我肯定经常被用来集中精神。通过简单地重复"我是"这样的话，你就肯定了你的真实本性是意识。在无限存在的冥想中，我们肯定我们内心最深处的认同是终极的、无限的意识。
The affirmation"I am Infinite Being"is the most powerful affirmation possible within the English language.
肯定"我是无限的存在"是最有力的肯定可能在英语语言。
The phrase"I am Infinite Being"is an affirmation of your oneness with the ultimate potential,the source of all life,the consciousness from which all life sprang.You are one with that universal consciousness.Everything in manifestation is one with that universal consciousness.Now is the time to consciously affirm your ultimate potential.It may take courage to begin with,but the results are more than worth the effort.
"我是无限的存在"这句话是对你们同一性的肯定，它具有终极的潜力，是所有生命的源泉，是所有生命的意识。你是那个宇宙意识的一部分。在显现中的一切都是与那个宇宙意识合一的。现在是有意识地肯定你的终极潜力的时候了。一开始可能需要勇气，但结果远远超过努力的价值。
If you find issues arising,such as a feeling of unworthiness in your alignment with the'All That Is,'with Infinite Being,just let those thoughts go,then gently bring your mind back into focus upon the affirmation.You do not have to justify the words,or settle any internal argument about them,just because of some prior conditioning as to how someone said you"should"think in this life.Think independently,think infinitely,and you will connect with the consciousness of your ultimate potential.
如果你发现出现了一些问题，比如在你与无限存在的对齐过程中产生了一种毫无价值的感觉，那么就让这些想法离开吧，然后慢慢地把你的思维带回到正面思维上来。你不必为这些话辩护，或者解决任何关于这些话的内部争论，仅仅是因为某些先前的条件作用，比如某人说你今生"应该"如何思考。独立地思考，无限地思考，你将与你最终潜能的意识相连接。
Have the inner discipline to stay with the affirmation and let any issues fade away unchallenged.Your inner self knows the meaning of the words and resonates in joy with their exact and literal truth.Every time you make this affirmation,you become more connected with Infinite Being.Any lesser thoughts are then healed within the light of greater truth.
保持内在的自律，坚持自我肯定，让任何问题不受挑战地消失。你的内在自我知道这些话的意思，并与它们的确切和字面意义的真相在欢乐中共鸣。每一次你做出这个肯定，你就变得更加与无限的存在联系在一起。任何较小的想法都会在更大的真理之光中被治愈。
Find a quiet space to sit down for a few minutes,close your eyes,and start looking for the quiet space within.To keep your brain occupied with the task at hand,focus your attention on the slow,even flow of your breath as it passes in and out of your nostrils.
找一个安静的地方坐几分钟，闭上眼睛，开始寻找内在的安静空间。为了让你的大脑专注于手头的任务，把你的注意力集中在缓慢甚至流动的呼吸，因为它通过你的鼻孔出来。
As you breathe each in-breath,mentally repeat the affirmation"I am Infinite Being."
当你每次吸气时，在心里重复肯定的"我是无限的存在"
On the out-breath,simply allow your attention to follow the flow of air from your nostrils.To induce an immediate calming effect,allow each out-breath to take longer than each in-breath.
在呼气的时候，只要让你的注意力顺着鼻孔里的空气流动就可以了。为了产生即时的镇静效果，允许每次呼出的时间比每次吸入的时间长。
Life energy,also known as etheric energy,is conditioned primarily within the human spinal column.From there it is distributed to the rest of the body via the subtle nervous system.Most key functions in the human body owe their operation primarily to the supply of etheric life energy,rather than to the supply of electrical energy.Etheric energy,like consciousness,is non-physical and yet it is behind all life.
生命能量，也被称为以太能量，主要在人类脊柱中得到调节。从那里，它通过精微神经系统分布到身体的其余部分。人体中大多数关键功能的运作主要归功于以太生命能量的供应，而不是电能的供应。以太能量，像意识一样，是非物质的，然而它在所有生命的后面。
To help enhance the natural flow of life energy within your spine while performing this meditation it is preferable to sit upright in an erect chair.As you progress with this meditation,the natural flow of life energy within your spine will become enhanced,bringing an enlivened awareness to your consciousness.
在进行这种冥想时，最好是直立地坐在直立的椅子上，以帮助提高你脊柱内生命能量的自然流动。当你在这个冥想中进步时，你脊椎中的生命能量的自然流动将变得更加强大，给你的意识带来活跃的觉知。
When distracting thoughts arise–which they will–treat them with patience and understanding.Put each distracting thought aside so that you can continue with the Infinite Being meditation.If a thought seems important or urgent,then it will be sure to return later,after your meditation session has finished.
当分散注意力的想法出现时——他们会这样做——要耐心和理解。把每一个分散注意力的想法放在一边，这样你就可以继续进行无限存在的冥想。如果一个想法看起来很重要或者很紧急，那么它一定会在你的冥想课程结束后再次出现。
There are a number of ways to enhance your meditation experience.One is to reserve a small space,such as the corner of a quiet room,where only meditation is conducted.That space then becomes more conducive to a meditation environment.A small table or surface can be covered with items that you connect with spiritual practice.Candles and incense are especially useful as they provide some initial focus for the senses.
有很多方法可以提高你的冥想体验。一种是预留一个小的空间，比如一个安静的房间的角落，在那里只进行冥想。这样的空间就会变得更有利于冥想环境。一个小桌子或者桌面可以覆盖你与灵性修行联系的物品。蜡烛和熏香特别有用，因为它们为感官提供一些初始的焦点。
It also helps to always use the same chair,one that is constructed primarily of a non-metallic material.Metal chairs attract etheric life energy away from you,which is great for the chair,but not so good for the meditation session.
它也有助于始终使用同一把椅子，这是一个主要由非金属材料建造。金属椅子吸引以太的生命能量远离你，这是伟大的椅子，但不是那么好的冥想会议。
A clock or timer completes your setting,and clean,light clothing,reserved especially for meditation,further enhances the atmosphere.A shower or bath before meditation is very valuable,as water is a powerful cleanser.If,for example,you have just come home from a hectic day at work,then your energy body will be filled with the distractions of the day,stored in etheric energy form.
一个时钟或计时器完成你的设置，和干净，轻衣服，专门为冥想保留，进一步提高气氛。在冥想前洗个澡是非常有价值的，因为水是一种强大的清洁剂。例如，如果你刚刚结束一天繁忙的工作回到家，那么你的能量身体就会被一天的干扰所填满，以以太能量的形式储存起来。
The water that cleanses you in a shower or bath not only cleanses you of physical impurities,but,more importantly,it also cleanses the etheric energy impurities that do not belong in your energy body.
在淋浴或浴缸中清洁你的水不仅清洁你的身体杂质，更重要的是，它还清洁不属于你的能量身体的以太能量杂质。
The reason that water is such an effective energy cleanser lies in its chemical composition.Water consists of H2O–hydrogen and oxygen.Oxygen is not just a chemical that the body needs.Its greater role is to carry life-giving,etheric energy.When you shower,your etheric body is being washed with the water's flow of cleansing,etheric energy.
水之所以是如此有效的能量清洁剂，原因在于它的化学成份。水由 H2O-氢和氧组成。氧气不仅仅是身体需要的一种化学物质。它更大的作用是携带赋予生命的以太能量。当你淋浴的时候，你的以太身体正在被清洗的水流和以太能量所清洗。
Make Spirituality Your Number One Priority
把灵性放在第一位
The best investment of your time each day is to spend 20 minutes in meditation.Make the time for this to happen.Make it the day's first priority.The easiest habit to adopt is one which makes up the first activity of the day.Making it a routine will also reinforce the effects of the meditation.
每天最好的时间投资就是花20分钟冥想。腾出时间让这一切发生。把它作为当天的第一要务。最简单的习惯就是养成一天中的第一个活动。让它成为常规也会加强冥想的效果。
If you are hungry to the point of distraction before a meditation session,then have some light refreshment,such as fruit or juice.Conversely,a full stomach after a heavy meal will have a deadening effect upon the higher possibilities of your meditation session,so plan to eat any large meals at least two hours ahead.
如果你在冥想前饿得快要分心了，那就吃点小点心，比如水果或果汁。相反地，饱餐一顿之后会对你冥想的更高可能性产生致命的影响，所以至少提前两个小时计划吃任何大餐。

The Complete Infinite Being Meditation Technique
完全无限存在的冥想技巧
1.Take a few moments to completely relax your physical body.Sit in an upright chair with your eyes closed,then clench your feet,toes and leg muscles.Release the tension and let your feet and legs relax completely.Do the same clench-and-release process for your stomach,chest and back;then your arms and hands;then your neck and face.
花一些时间来完全放松你的身体。闭上眼睛坐在直立的椅子上，然后收紧你的脚、脚趾和腿部肌肉。释放紧张，让你的脚和腿完全放松。对你的腹部、胸部和背部做同样的紧握和松开过程，然后是你的手臂和手，然后是你的脖子和脸
2.In preparation,take three deep breaths and exhale each one completely.
在准备阶段，做三次深呼吸，然后完全呼气
3.Now focus your attention on the slow,even flow of breath as it passes in and out of your nostrils.
现在把你的注意力集中在缓慢、均匀的呼吸上，因为它进出你的鼻孔
4.As you breathe each in-breath,mentally repeat the affirmation,
当你每次吸气的时候，在心里重复肯定,
"I am Infinite Being."
"我是无限的存在。"
5.On the out-breath,allow your attention to follow the flow of air from your nostrils.To induce an immediate calming effect,slow each out-breath and allow it to take up to twice as long as each in-breath.
在呼气的时候，让你的注意力跟随从你鼻孔流出的空气。为了产生即时的镇静效果，放慢每次呼出的速度，让每次呼出的时间达到每次吸入的两倍
6.To make a space for your consciousness to dip into the experience of being,pause at the end of the out-breath.Hold the breath out of your body until you feel the need to inhale again.This will typically be for around three seconds,sometimes less.When you are in this motionless quiet space,don't think,just be.Subtle impressions may arise from your inner self in this Being Space.The end of each breathing cycle is your personal communion space with your inner being.Ignore surface mental noise–words and feelings that jump into your attention–and maintain your focus upon the quiet inner space and subtle impressions of higher consciousness.Nothing loud comes from your inner being.Focus your awareness upon your inner silence.With practice,this is a time when great insights and inspiration quietly dawn upon your awareness.
为了让你的意识沉浸在存在的体验中，在呼吸结束时暂停。屏住呼吸，直到你感到需要再次吸气。这通常会持续大约三秒钟，有时甚至更短。当你在这静止不动的空间里，不要思考，只是静静地呆着。微妙的印象可能来自你的内在自我在这个存在空间。每个呼吸周期的结束都是你与你内在存在的个人交流空间。忽略表面的心理噪音——跳进你注意力的词汇和感觉——并保持你的注意力集中在安静的内心空间和更高意识的微妙印象上。没有什么声音是来自你内心的。把你的意识集中在你内心的沉默上。通过练习，这是一个伟大的洞察力和灵感静静地出现在你的觉察之上的时刻
7.Repeat this cycle of breathing and being for 20 minutes.
重复这个呼吸周期，持续20分钟
