時(shí)間糜颠,即思維汹族。思維是記憶的運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)過程:制造出心理時(shí)間——昨天、今天與明天其兴,把時(shí)間用作追逐成就的工具顶瞒,并成為一種生活方式。對(duì)于我們而言元旬,時(shí)間是異常重要的榴徐,一世又一世,一生接一生匀归,改頭換面坑资,延續(xù)不止。
顯然穆端,時(shí)間就是思維的本質(zhì)袱贮,思維就是心理時(shí)間。只要我們以時(shí)間為手段來追逐目標(biāo)体啰,那么心靈就不能自我超越攒巍;因?yàn)樽晕页街粚儆诮饷撚跁r(shí)間囹圄的全新心靈。時(shí)間狡赐,是恐懼的要因窑业。我所說的時(shí)間不是指秒、分枕屉、時(shí)常柄、日、年等鐘表時(shí)間,而是指心理時(shí)間西潘,也就是內(nèi)在思維過程卷玉。心理時(shí)間造就了恐懼,時(shí)間就是恐懼喷市。時(shí)間就是思維相种,進(jìn)而滋生了恐懼,制造了挫折與沖突的品姓,因?yàn)橐坏┊?dāng)下覺察了這個(gè)事實(shí)寝并,看清了這一真相,心理時(shí)間就消泯了腹备。
所以衬潦,為了理解恐懼,你必須洞察心理時(shí)間——時(shí)間植酥,就是橫在你與真相之間的距離與空間镀岛,就是“自我”。思維制造了昨天友驮、今天與明天漂羊,并運(yùn)用昨天的記憶削足適履,以適應(yīng)當(dāng)下卸留,進(jìn)而束縛未來走越。所以,對(duì)于多數(shù)人而言艾猜,恐懼是非同尋常的真實(shí)买喧。心靈若被錯(cuò)綜復(fù)雜的恐懼所糾纏捻悯,就絕無自由匆赃;若不理解心理時(shí)間的盤根錯(cuò)節(jié),就根本不能整體上理解恐懼今缚,因?yàn)榭謶峙c時(shí)間形影不離算柳。

The Very Nature of Thought
Time is thought, and thought is the process of memory that creates time as yesterday, today, and tomorrow, as a thing that we use as a means of achievement, as a way of life. Time to us is extraordinarily important, life after life, one life leading to another life that is modified, that continues.
Surely, time is the very nature of thought, thought is time. And as long as time exists as a means to something, the mind cannot go beyond itself—the quality of going beyond itself belongs to the new mind, which is free of time. Time is a factor in fear. By time, I don’t mean the chronological time, by the watch—second, minute, hour, day, year, but time as a psychological, inward process. It is that fact that brings about fear. Time is fear; as time is thought, it does breed fear; it is time that creates frustration, conflicts, because the immediate perception of the fact, the seeing of the fact is timeless….
So, to understand fear, one must be aware of time—time as distance, space, “me,” which thought creates as yesterday, today, and tomorrow, using the memory of yesterday to adjust itself to the present and so to condition the future. So, for most of us fear is an extraordinary reality; and a mind that is entangled with fear, with the complexity of fear, can never be free; it can never understand the totality of fear without understanding the intricacies of time. They go together.
