灵性的意义

真正的灵性是一件充满喜悦而且接地气的事，与老气横秋的假正经不相干，与长篇累牍和愁容满面也不相干。与之有关的，却是你内在的意识之舞，以及你内在心灵探险的感觉。

那才是灵性的意义；而正如我以前说过的，如果可以，我愿意绕着房间舞上一曲，好让你明白你的活力并不倚赖于肉体形象。它既不倚赖于你的青春，也不倚赖于你的身体。你的活力摇铃歌唱，响彻宇宙，充盈你整个人格。是这种喜悦让所有的创造成为可能。

因此，当你拉着脸时不要以为那是富有灵性，当你为自己的罪恶严责自己时不要以为那是灵性。春去秋来，不论你自以为是罪人还是圣人，阳光还是会照耀你的脸。宇宙的活力就是创造、喜悦和爱，这才是灵性，而这些也就是我要告诉读者们的。

True spirituality is a thing of joy and of the earth, and has nothing to do with fake adult dignity. It has nothing to do with long words and sorrowful faces. It has to do with the dance of consciousness that is within you, and with the sense of spiritual adventure that is within your hearts.

That is the meaning of spirituality; and as I have told you before, if I could I would do a merry dance about the room to show you that your vitality is not dependent upon a physical image. It is not dependent upon your youth, it is not dependent upon your body. It rings and sings through the universe, and through your entire personality. It is a sense of joy that makes all creativity probable.

So do not think you are being spiritual when you are being long-faced, and do not think you are being spiritual when you berate yourself for your sins. The seasons within your system come and go. The sun falls upon your face whether you think you are a sinner or a saint. The vitality of the universe is creativity and joy and love, and that is spirituality. And that is what I shall tell the readers of my book.
