当我们的心被强烈的痛苦带走时。
回到放松而平和的呼吸能够帮到我们。
最后,当痛苦的感受回来时,我们就要如其所是地接纳它,
而不是让它将我们带走,而让我们更激动。
我们不对抗痛苦的感受,是因为知道它是我们的一部分,我们不想与自己对抗。
痛苦、愤怒和嫉妒都是我们的一部分。
当它们出现时,我们可以通过回到呼吸,而令它们平静下来。
我们平和的呼吸会让那些强烈的情绪平静下来。
When Strong Emotions Arise
WHEN OUR MIND is carried away by strong pain,
it helps to go back to our relaxed and peaceful in-breath and out-breath.
Eventually, when our painful feeling comes back we accept it
as it is instead of letting it carry us away and make us more agitated.
We don't fight the painful feeling because we know it is part of us,
and we don't want to fight ourselves Pain,
irritation, and jealousy are all part of us.As they arise,
we can calm them by going back to our in-breath and out-breath.
Our peaceful breathing will calm those strong emotions.
