True, there may be a good many things in existing conditions which are disagreeable; but what is the use of studying them when they are certainly passing away, and when the study of them only tends to check their passing and keep them with us? Why give time and attention to things which are being removed by evolutionary growth, when you can hasten their removal only by promoting the evolutionary growth as far as your part of it goes?

诚然,这个世界上的确存在许多悲观黑暗的现象以及种种消极的思想,与我上文中的描述并不十分吻合。但是,当它们已经成为过去时,我们再回过头去研究它们,研究的结果不过是证明它们已经成为历史,而最后的结果就是我们永远牢记这段历史。如果真是如此,我想问问大家,这样的研究对现实有任何作用和实际意义吗?如果我们完全有能力推动宇宙进化的历程,而进化本身就具有去除世间种种黑暗或悲观现象的功能,那么,我们为什么非要将时间和精力全都用于研究那些行将作古,或是已经在进化历程当中消失的事物和现象呢?

No matter how horrible in seeming may be the conditions in certain countries, sections, or places, you waste your time and destroy your own chances by considering them.

当今世上的某些国家和地区的确存在些许让人痛心的事物和现象,可是,无论它们如何令人痛心疾首,如何不堪,如果你只是一味地沉浸在对这些悲惨现象和黑暗事物的哀悼和思考里,不仅于事无补,而且只会白白浪费你的时间和精力,甚至还会让你与某些宝贵的机会失之交臂。

You should interest yourself in the world's becoming rich. Think of the riches the world is coming into, instead of the poverty it is growing out of, and bear in mind that the only way in which you can assist the world in growing rich is by growing rich yourself through the creative method - not the competitive one.

忘掉那个只有贫穷、黑暗和痛苦的世界,取而代之以一一个富足、幸福和美好的世界吧!请牢记一条真理:你能够帮助这个世界摆脱贫穷的惟一办法,就是通过创造性的劳动让自己先富起来一竞 争从来都不是,将来也不会是致富的良策。

Give your attention wholly to riches; ignore poverty.

你应该把注意力完全集中在美好的财富上,忘记或忽略贫穷的存在!

Whenever you think or speak of those who are poor, think and speak of them as those who are becoming rich; as those who are to be congratulated rather than pitied. Then they and others will catch the inspiration, and begin to search for the way out.

无论何时,你一想到或谈论到穷人,就请务必告诉自己,他们事实上是一群正在向财富掌近的幸运儿,同时,也请不要忘记将自己对他们的怜悯之心转变为祝贺之情。如此一来,他们自然就能从中获取致富的灵感,开始探寻摆脱贫穷的出路。

Because I say that you are to give your whole time and mind and thought to riches, it does not follow that you are to be sordid or mean.

我再重申一遍,你将所有的时间、精力和思想全都投入到财富里,漠视贫穷,这并不意味着你就是个吝尚冷醋的人。

To become really rich is the noblest aim you can have in life, for it includes everything else.

请相信,获取财富是你一生当中最崇高的目标,因为它包含了人生的所有生活目标。

unnamed (2)_副本.jpg

On the competitive plane, the struggle to get rich is a Godless scramble for power over other men; but when we come into the creative mind, all this is changed.

从竞争者的角度来看,只有那些信念不强的人,才会选择通过不正当竞争这种方式,攫取原本属于他人的财富。然而,如果我们能够让创造的思想在脑海里生根发芽,那情况就完全不一样了。

All that is possible in the way of greatness and soul unfoldment, of service and lofty endeavor, comes by way of getting rich; all is made possible by the use of things.

一切美好的事物,高尚的服务以至于陶冶心灵,都是以获取财富为首要前提。只有借助于其他事物,我们才有可能实现那些美好的目标。

If you lack for physical health, you will find that the attainment of it is conditional on your getting rich.

如果你觉得自己的身体不够健康,你会发现自己的健康程度原来也取决于财富的多寡。

Only those who are emancipated from financial wony, and who have the means to live a care-free existence and follow hygienic practices, can have and retain health.

只有那些没有经济烦恼,按照健康的生活方式生活得无忧无虑的人才能享受健康的体魄。

Moral and spiritual greatness is possible only to those who are above the competitive battle for existence; and only those who are becoming rich on the plane of creative thought are free from the degrading influences of competition. If your heart is set on domestic happiness, remember that love flourishes best where there is refinement, a high level of thought, and freedom from corrupting influences; and these are to be found only where riches are attained by the exercise of creative thought, without strife or rivalry.

只有那些远离了不正当的竞争,远离了不道德的激战的人,才是一个道德和精神双重高尚的人,而只有那些通过创造成功致富的人,才能远离诸如此类的不良影响。如果你是一个重视家庭幸福的人,那么,请记住,温馨的爱只有在高雅、高尚、不受世俗的竞争思想影响的家庭氛围中才能汹涌澎湃,而财富就是世间惟一种能够缔造这一切的伟大力量,只不过,请不要忘了,这里说的财富只能来自于创造性的思想和行动,而决不能是任何形式的不正当竞争或斗争。

You can aim at nothing so great or noble, I repeat, as to become rich; and you must fix your attention upon your mental picture of riches, to the exclusion of all that may tend to dim or obscure the vision.

我再强调一次,这世上再也没有比获取财富更伟大、更高尚的目标了。你必须将所有的精力,全都凝聚在脑海中的那幅关于财富梦想的蓝图上,决不能让它出现半点模糊的迹象,更不能对它有丝毫的怀疑。

You must leam to see the underlying TRUTH in all things; you must see beneath all seemingly wrong conditions, the Great One Life ever moving forward toward fuller expression and more complete happiness.

你必须学会透过表象看本质的本领:你必须看清楚在各种貌似错误的表象的掩盖下,世界上那些伟大的生命休是如何孜孜不倦地探寻更完整的生活方式,追求更高层次的快乐。

It is the truth that there is no such thing as poverty; that there is only wealth.

世上本没有贫穷,只有财富。这就是真理。
