萨古鲁谈年轻人如何应对当今快节奏的生活和繁忙的日程安排?

During an interview with Paws Magazine, Sadhguru looks at various issues that youth face today, and how they can make the most of the immense benefits that science and technology have brought us.

在接受杂志采访时，萨古鲁探讨了当今年轻人面临的各种问题，以及他们如何最大限度地利用科学技术给我们带来的巨大好处。

Q1) Youth is enamored with apps and gadgets. Their day starts with a post and ends with a tweet. How can they take control of their lives in such a situation?

问题1）年轻人喜欢应用程序APP和小工具。他们的一天从一个朋友圈推文开始，以一条微博结束。在这种情况下，他们如何才能控制自己的生活？

Sadhguru: Those who have not taken charge of themselves will always be distracted by something or the other. So the problem is not gadgets, the problem is of compulsiveness. We have to bring this into our youth, children and adults, that we do not conduct life compulsively. How we eat, sit, stand and function must be done in a conscious way. If it becomes conscious, our use of gadgets also will become a conscious process.

萨古鲁：那些没有掌控自己的人总是会被某些事情或其他事情分散注意力。所以问题不是设备，而是惯性的问题。我们必须把这些带到我们的青年、儿童和成年人身上，这样我们就不会无意识强迫性地生活。我们的饮食、坐姿、站立和活动方式必须有意识地完成。如果它变得有意识，我们对小工具的使用也将成为一个有意识的过程。

Q2) With the impact of information on youth, how can they organize day-to-day life?

问题2）由于信息对青年的影响，他们如何组织日常生活？

Sadhguru: Let’s not complain about information. A hundred years ago, whether a disaster happened or something fantastic happened just hundred kilometers away, it would take a month for you to find out about it. Today you know what’s happening around the world instantly. Technology is not good or bad. It has no quality of its own – it depends on the way we use it.

萨古鲁：我们不要抱怨信息。100年前，在100公里外如果无论是发生灾难还是好事，你都要花1个月的时间才能知道。今天你马上就知道世界上发生了什么。技术本身没有好或坏。好与坏是取决于我们使用它的方式。

Whatever other technologies you handle – phones, computers or social media – it is not as sophisticated as the human mechanism – the most sophisticated gadget on the planet. You should attend to this first. Then, everything else gets managed naturally. Otherwise the fantastic gift of technology is going to be very stressful.

无论你使用什么科技产品—手机、电脑或社交媒体—它都不如人类机制复杂—它地球上最复杂的设备。你应该先处理这个问题。然后，其它的一切都会得到自然的管理。否则，技术的神奇天赋将是非常有压力的。

Q3) How can youth, which is losing connect with family and friends, improve its emotional quotient?

问题3)失去了与家人和朋友联系的年轻人，如何才能提高自己的情商?

Sadhguru: Emotion is the largest dimension in most human beings, so emotional security is most important. If a human being becomes really conscious, emotion doesn’t matter. But otherwise, emotion plays a significant role.

萨古鲁:情感是大多数人最大的维度，所以情感安全是最重要的。如果一个人变得真正有意识，情绪就不重要了。但除此之外，情感扮演着重要的角色。

So, right from childhood, children must have emotional security. That means there must be a loving atmosphere around them all the time – not just at home, but at school, on the street – wherever a child goes, he or she must experience a sense of love and welcome. This is the most significant aspect that we should take care of for the future wellbeing of humanity.

所以，从童年开始，孩子们就必须有情感安全感。这意味着他们周围必须一直有爱的氛围—不仅仅是在家里，在学校，在街上—无论孩子走到哪里，他或她都必须体验爱和受欢迎的感觉。这是我们为人类未来福祉所应关注的最重要方面。

Q4) What lessons can youth learn from animals or pets?

问题4）年轻人能从动物或宠物身上学到什么？

Sadhguru: These days, a lot of people are choosing dogs over human beings because a dog means a 12-year guaranteed love affair! We do not know whether God is love, but dog for sure is love! It doesn’t matter how you treated your dog in the morning, when you go home in the evening, the kind of welcome the dog gives you, no wife, husband or child will ever do that for you.

萨古鲁：现在，很多人选择狗而不是人类，因为狗意味着一个12年保证的爱情！我们不知道上帝是否是爱，但狗肯定是爱！不管你早上怎么对待你的狗，晚上回家的时候，狗给你的那种欢迎，没有任何妻子、丈夫或孩子会为你这样做。

So it’s not surprising that many people love their dogs more than the people in their family. But how much love you feel for a dog, you can feel the same way for a human being too, because love is not about your dog, friends or family, love is about you.

因此，很多人比家人更爱他们的狗，这并不奇怪。但是你对狗有多爱，你也可以对人类有同样的感觉，因为爱不是关于你的狗，朋友或家人，爱是关于你。

Love happens within you. If you become very loving, your existence will be pleasant. Only if you are pleasant, you will dare to explore all dimensions of life. Otherwise, unpleasant thoughts, emotions and body will keep you busy all the time. If you make the mind, body and emotion pleasant and loving, there will be no fear of suffering in you. Only when there is no fear of suffering will you be able to walk full stride in this life.

爱发生在你的内心。如果你变得非常爱，你的生活将会是愉快的。只有当你快乐的时候，你才会敢于探索生活的方方面面。否则，不愉快的想法、情绪和身体会让你一直忙碌。如果你使你的思想、身体和情感愉快而充满爱，你就不会害怕痛苦。只有当你不害怕痛苦的时候，你才能在这一生中大步前进。

Love&Grace

爱与恩典
