你的眼睛背叛了你的心

Are You Ready for Happiness?（25）
Why is there a contradiction?
This is because there is a gap
between our subjective consciousness
and objective reality.
为什么会产生矛盾呢？
那是因为，
我们的主观意识
与客观存在的事物之间
已经脱节了。
In other words, even though in concept a second can be divided into ten thousand units, or a hundred thousand units, etc., all of it is illusory. Just like a high-speed electric fan, we do not see the individual blades, only the circular form as a whole. Or a glass we drink from, we do not see the multitude of molecules and atoms which comprise it, or the many electrons which revolve around the nucleus of each atom. Our eye perception is very limited; we cannot see the true reality of phenomena, only the illusion.
也就是说，尽管在我们的概念中，一秒钟可以分成一万个单位，也可以分成一亿个单位等等，但这些都只是幻觉而已。就像高速旋转的电风扇，我们看不到它一个个的叶片，而只能看到一个圆形的整体。或一个玻璃杯，我们也看不到它是由很多电子、原子组成的，每个原子核周围又有很多的电子在围绕它转动等等一样。我们的眼睛能力太有限，根本无法看清事物的真相，只能看到一些错误的幻觉。
Appling Illusionist Concept to Life
四、如何将唯幻论融入生活
Transcending the Mundane World
（一）身处红尘，不堕红尘
What does the concept of illusion have to do with our life in this world? How do we make use of it?
这些理论与我们的现实生活有什么关系呢？又如何将这些理论运用到生活当中呢？
Firstly, even though we now know the world is an illusion, it is a very real world from the standpoint of our eye, ear, nose, tongue, and body. Because of this relative reality, we have to be responsible to our society, family, and company employees; we need to build a career and provide for our family. We have to abstain from destroying and harming life, from stealing and cheating, etc. Knowing everything to be illusory, we must nonetheless distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil.
第一，虽然我们现在已经知道，世界是虚幻的。但从我们的眼、耳、鼻、舌、身等感官的角度来说，这都是真实无比的世界。因为这种相对的真实，所以我们要对社会、对家庭、对公司里的员工负责。要去发展事业、养家糊口，这是我们的义务。同时，那些不该做的事情，譬如杀人、偷盗、欺骗等等，也要严加禁止。绝不能因为这些都是假的，就可以是非不明、好坏不分。
