【我的神聖本質乃是我的救恩】
My holiness is my salvation.

1.
如果罪咎等於地獄，那它的反面又是什麼？今天練習的觀念就如〈練習手冊〉所闡釋的〈正文〉一樣，非常簡單、清楚，毫無曖昧之處。我們對知性或邏輯這些玩意兒毫無興趣。我們著眼的原是顯而易見之事，它卻被你自以為式的複雜想法所遮蔽，使你視而不見。
⋯⋯If guilt is hell, what is its opposite? Like the text for which this workbook was written, the ideas used for the exercises are very simple, very clear and totally unambiguous. We are not concerned with intellectual feats nor logical toys. We are dealing only in the very obvious, which has been overlooked in the clouds of complexity in which you think you think.

2.
如果罪咎等於地獄，那它的反面又是什麼？這個問題實在不難回答。你若支支吾吾地閃爍其辭。不是因為問題本身曖昧不名。而是你真的相信罪咎等於地獄嗎？如果相信，你立刻就看得出〈正文〉所說的何等直截了當，你根本不需要這部〈練習手冊〉。沒有人需要練習才能得到他早已擁有的東西。
If guilt is hell, what is its opposite? This is not difficult, surely. The hesitation you may feel in answering is not due to the ambiguity of the question. But do you believe that guilt is hell? If you did, you would see at once how direct and simple the text is, and you would not need a workbook at all. No one needs practice to gain what is already his.
 
3.
我們已經說過，你的神聖本質乃是世界的救恩。那麼，你自己的救恩呢？你無法給別人自己沒有的東西。人間的救主必須自己先得救才行。否則他如何傳播救恩？今天的練習就是有意幫你認出你的得救是世界得救的關鍵。
We have already said that your holiness is the salvation of the world. What about your own salvation? You cannot give what you do not have. A savior must be saved. How else can he teach salvation? Today's exercises will apply to you, recognizing that your salvation is crucial to the salvation of the world.

4.
你的神聖本質答覆了人類過去提出的、現在還在問的、未來仍會問的一切問題。你的神聖性意味著罪咎的終結，因此也成了地獄的終結。你的神聖本質是世界的救恩，也是你自己的救恩。
Your holiness is the answer to every question that was ever asked, is being asked now, or will be asked in the future. Your holiness means the end of guilt, and therefore the end of hell. Your holiness is the salvation of the world, and your own.

5.
今天盡量作四次「長式」練習，每次整整五分鐘，若能延長時間或增加次數則更好。
A full five minutes are urged for the four longer practice periods for today, and longer and more frequent practice sessions are encouraged.
 
6.
練習之始，照常向自己複誦幾遍今天的觀念，然後，閉起眼睛搜查一下自己缺乏愛心的念頭，不論他化身為何種形式：不安、消沈、憤怒、恐懼、憂慮、攻擊、缺乏安全感等等。不論它化身為何種形式，都缺少了愛，你才會害怕。所謂得救，就是幫你由那些念頭中解脫出來。
Begin the practice periods as usual, by repeating today's idea to yourself. Then, with closed eyes, search out your unloving thoughts in whatever form they appear; uneasiness, depression, anger, fear, worry, attack, insecurity and so on. Whatever form they take, they are unloving and therefore fearful. And so it is from them that you need to be saved.

7.
只要與那些缺乏愛心的念頭相關的場景、事件或人物，都是今天練習的最佳素材。你若要得救，就必須以不同的眼光去看它們。你唯有祝福它們，方能得救，重獲慧眼而看清了真相。
Specific situations, events or personalities you associate with unloving thoughts of any kind are suitable subjects for today's exercises. It is imperative for your salvation that you see them differently. And it is your blessing on them that will save you and give you vision.

8.
省察你心中每一個橫梗在你與救恩之間的念頭，慢慢地，用下面的格式來套用今天的觀念：

我對＿＿＿缺乏愛的念頭，使我陷身於地獄之中。
我的神聖本質乃是我的救恩。
 

Slowly, without conscious selection and without undue emphasis on any one in particular, search your mind for every thought that stands between you and your salvation. Apply the idea for today to each of them in this way:

My unloving thoughts about _____ are keeping me in hell.
My holiness is my salvation.


9.
如果你能在這些「長式」練習之間，插入幾個「短式」練習，只慢慢複誦幾遍今天的觀念，等你做「長式」練習時，便會感到容易多了。
You may find these practice periods easier if you intersperse them with several short periods during which you merely repeat today's idea to yourself slowly a few times.

10.
一些變化的形式，在練習之後複誦今天的觀念，同時加上一句：
你的神聖本質乃是你的救恩。
如果罪咎等於地獄，它的反面又是什麼？

End each practice period by repeating the idea in its original form once more, and adding:
Your holiness is your salvation.
If guilt is hell, what is its opposite?

11.
當誘惑來臨時，最有幫助的練習形式即是：
我的神聖本質乃是幫我由此解脫的救恩。

If temptations arise, a particularly helpful form of the idea is:
My holiness is my salvation from this.
