自我改善 Self-Improvements

There are many books on self-improvements on the market, and some of you might think our approach is similar to theirs.

市面上有很多討論自我改善的書，或許有些人會認為我們跟那些書所說的很類似。

That is not the case.

事實上，並非如此。

Many of these self-improvements works on the surface or the appearances of "you", and many of them only work on a specific aspect of "you." However, we want you to change yourself from within.

這些自我改善的書，是想要改變表面上的「您」，而且只能改變某一方面。 但是，我們希望您能從內心改變自己。

They want to change your mechanical properties, but we want you to change your nature by conquering your weakness. If you can remove your weaknesses from within, you will become a different person, and all the non-desirable traits will simply vanish, because all the non-desirable traits are simply manifestations of the weaknesses within you.

他們想改變您的機械性能，但我們希望您能征服您的弱點來改變本性。 如果您可以刪除弱點，您將成為一個不同的人；所有不理想的特性會自然消失，因為所有不理想的特性都是因您的弱點而產生的。

For example, one book might teach you how to project self-confidences. But for us, "self-confidences" is the natural consequence of no fear. Because you will understand that there is no need to be afraid.

例如，一本書會教「如何讓別人認為您有自信」。 但對於我們來說，自信是消除恐懼的結果，因為你會明白：根本不需要有恐懼的感覺。

Another one might teach you how to management your anger. But for us, "anger management" is not necessary, because you will understand that there is no need to be angry.

另一本書可能會教您如何管理自己的情緒、處理憤怒的狀態。 但對我們來說，「情緒管理」是沒有必要的，因為您會明白：根本沒有必要生氣。

A third book might teach you how to cure your addictions. But for us, you will naturally stop addictions because you will have no need to be greedy. You will have no need to continue feeding the emptiness within you with your addictions.

再另一本書會教您如何治癒上癮的自己。 但是對於我們來說，您自然會停止不需要的癮，因為您不會貪、內心不會有空虛，也就沒必要運用「上癮」來繼續餵養自己。

All the articles that we have published since the end of "Our Method" have all been our observations of the world of Practice. They are not instructions. The first step to the instruction have all be published under "Our Method".

在這個部落格裡，所有「修行法門」之後的文章，都是我們對修行世界的觀察。 不是方法，因為所有關於法門的第一步都已經說明了。

Our articles on the Dark Side, the Light Side, Suffering, Greed, Karma and everything else, are all observations based on our understanding. The point of these articles is to provide you with another way of looking at the world of Practice, and to stimulate you. And by give you the other side of the coin, maybe you can find the epiphany or the courage needed to change yourself.

之後的文章，像「黑暗面」，「光明面」，「苦」，「貪」，「因緣果」...等等，只是我們的觀察。 這些文章的要點是提供不一樣的想法來刺激您，希望看到硬幣的另一面，您或許可以找到需要改變自己的頓悟，或改變自己的勇氣。

These articles also give you information so that you can make informed choices.

這些文章同時也給您知識，所以您可以做明智的選擇。

The point of these articles is not to tell you to do this or do that. That's not our intent. We do not seek to define Precepts or Virtues.

這些文章的要點不是要告訴您做這個或做那個，這些都不是我們的本意，我們不會要求您一定要守戒或行善。

The only thing that we will tell you that you need to do is to understand yourself so that you can defeat your weaknesses. Because everything else naturally follows.

我們只會叫您做一件事：就是了解自己去刪除弱點，其它自然就會發生。
