五大元素净化——掌握五大元素
Isha瑜伽中有一套完整的体系称为五大元素净化。如果你完全掌控了五大元素，你不但能掌控身体、头脑，还能掌控创造之源。
Sadhguru looks at the composition of the 5 elements within the human body, and looks at which elements can be taken charge of, even by someone in a householder situation.
萨古鲁谈论到人体是由五大元素组合而成，而且这些元素可以被掌控，甚至是在家人也可以掌控它们。
Sadhguru: IT’S JUST… Body is a play of five elements, so is the world, so is the universe. Everything is a play of five elements. In these five unless you want to explore mystical dimensions you don’t have to bother about the space. So there’re only four. Among the four seventy percent of your body is just water.
萨古鲁：它只是——身体是五种元素的游戏，这个世界和宇宙也同样是五种元素的游戏。万物都是五种元素的游戏。在这五种元素中，除非你想探索神秘的维度，否则你无须花费精力了知空间这个元素。这样就只剩下四种元素，在这四种元素中，仅仅是水元素就占据了你身体的72%。
Another twelve percent is earth, you know only twelve percent of your body is actually earth, largely it is water. So it’s eighty-four percent. Another six percent is air; air is the easiest thing to manage and take charge of because there is breath and you can take charge of it in a certain way. Another four percent is fire. Taking mastery over fire could do many things to you but because you are house-holders living in family situation, you don’t have to take charge of fire. You can keep it as it is; sometimes you can burn somebody a bit. You need it right? You’re married (Laughs). Once in a way if you don’t burn them a bit, it may not work. Yes or no? The remaining six percent is space; you don’t have to bother about that unless you want to explore mystical dimensions of the existence. To live well four elements is enough, fifth one is not relevant for people who just want to live well.
别外的12%是土元素，你知道实际上你身体只有12%是土元素，大部分是水。所以这一共是84%。另外的6%是空气，空气是最容易被掌控的元素，因为有呼吸，你可以通过特定的呼吸方式掌握它。另外的4%是火元素。掌控了火元素你就可以做很多事情，但因为你是生活在家庭环境中，你不必掌握火元素。你可以保持它原本的样子，有时候你会有点灼伤到别人。你需要它，对吗？因为你结婚了（笑）。偶尔（灼伤到人），如果你一点也不灼伤人，火元素就没有作用。对不对？剩下的6%是空间；你无须花费精力了知它，除非你想探索存在的神秘维度。只想过得好四种元素就够了，第五种元素与那些只想过得好的人是无关的。
It’s very important because every substance, all the four elements have memory; particularly earth and water have a very strong sense of memory. Today modern science has explored this in a big way and they are proving to you that water has tremendous memory. Particularly about water, much research has happened. If I go to a new place something sensitive, something important if I go, I don’t go and talk to the local guide; I’ll just look for an unbroken rock, something that’s not been touched and broken; I just go and sit. I know everything about the place because there is a phenomenal memory out there. So with water. When water behaves in a certain way, depending upon what type of memory it carries; it’s from this, people are going to consecrated spaces or temples and dying for a few drops of water because the water has the memory of the divine. They want that water to get into them,. that’s what theerth means. Theerth means water which has the memory of the divine. You want that water which has a good memory to go into you.
这非常重要，因为每一种物质，所有这四种元素都有记忆；尤其是土元素和水元素有着非常强烈的记忆力。今天现代科学对这一点已经研究透彻了，他们证明了水有惊人的记忆力。特别是关于水的研究已经有很多了。如果我去到一个存有敏感和重要的东西的新地方，我只是走一走，我不去和当地向导谈话；我只需找到一块完整无损的石头，没有被触碰和破坏过的东西，坐下来，就能了知这个地方的一切，因为这里面有大量的记忆被保存着。水也是这样，它的运作方式依赖于它携带什么类型的记忆；正是由于这一点，人们去到被圣化的空间或者寺庙，渴望得到几滴水，因为这些水带有神圣的记忆。他们希望这样的水进入他们的身体系统，这就是theerth的意思。Theerth的意思是携带神性记忆的水。你希望这带有美好记忆的水进入你的身体系统。
So always your grandmothers were aware of this. They told you ‘if somebody gives you water, first you must look at their face not what they’re giving you. Somebody gives you something to eat don’t look at the food, look at the person, how are they giving it?.’ They need not chemically poisoned this, just with the emotion and thought things can go bad. So this is no more a grandmother story; this is scientifically proven now that this happens that water has memory.
所以一直以来你的祖母们是知道这点的。她们告诉你们'如果有人给你水喝，首先你必须看着对方的脸而不是看着给你的东西。有人给你食物吃，不要看着食物而是看着那个人，看他们是怎样给你的？’ 他们不必用药物在这些东西上下毒，只是用他们的情绪和想法就可以使这些东西变坏。所以这不再是祖母讲给你的故事，现在已经由科学得以证明了，水确实具有记忆。
You can either turn this sweet or make it bitter with your rubbish. If you can cause sweetness and bitterness for the water which is in this tumbler, can’t you do this to the water that is here? So if you just make the waters within you sweet, you’ll become seventy two percent okay. Okay? (Laughs) Another twelve percent of earth if you do, eighty-four percent, you are doing great. Air, if you maintain it, ninety percent you’re doing great. Fire, if you want to purify, it’s much more work, it’s much…it takes much more to purify the fires in you. Fire is in different ways. We call this… There are various aspects of fire, there is reproductive fire, there is digestive fire, there is mental fire, there is heart fire and there is inner fire. There’re five dimensions of fire. These five are difficult to work for ordinary people.
你可以把水变甜也可以用你的垃圾使它变苦。如果你能把这杯水变甜变苦，难道不能对这里（身体）的水这么做吗？因此如果你只是让身体内的水变得甜蜜，你就有72%很棒了。对吗？（笑）另外12%的土元素，如果你也掌控了，就是84%，你就非常了不起了。空气，如果你掌控了它，就是90%，你会非常了不起。火元素，如果你想要净化它，就要费更大的功夫…要净化你体内的火元素，要费更大的劲儿。火元素以不同的方式在运作， 我们称这为…有不同层面的火：有繁衍之火、消化之火、思想之火、心之火和内在之火。有五个层面的火，这五个层面之火对普通人来说很难办。
It takes lot of discipline but the three can be worked out. The reproductive fire, the digestive fire and the mental fire can be worked out very easily – very easily means; with a little effort one can do that. The other two will take much more to work with. If you just purify these fires then you are no more an ordinary person. You’re not just a healthy, happy person you are much more because once you have mastery over the fire element in you then you’re touching the space. You’re just one step away; suddenly you are not just an ordinary human being, you are not just happy and healthy human being; something else is burning with you which is not… Most people in the world will never know that or till now they have not. Our objective is everybody should know it. If you took charge of the fire in your groin, the fire in your belly and the fire in your mind how many miraculous things you could do with this life? How much mastery you would have and how…how well you could live, how consciously and how much by choice you could live rather than be a slave of compulsiveness, isn’t it? Yes?
净化火元素有很多规则，但有三种火好解决。繁衍之火、消化之火和思想之火可以很容易解决——非常容易指的是，付出一些努力就能做到。其他两种火需要更多的努力。你仅仅是净化了这些火，你就会变得非同寻常。你不仅会健康快乐，远非如此，因为一旦你掌握了内在的火元素，然后你就能触碰到空间这个元素。你只是一步之遥了，突然之间，你不只是一个普通人了，你不只是一个健康快乐的人了，有别的东西在灼烧你。这个世界上的绝大多数人都将永远不会知道这一点或直到现在也还不知道这一点。我们的目标是每个人都应该知道这个。如果你掌控了腹股沟的火（繁衍之火）、腹部的火（消化之火）和思想之火，你将会用这个生命创造出多少奇迹？你掌控它们的水平决定你生活的幸福程度、决定你多大程度上能够有意识地选择自己想过的生活，而不是成为强迫性的奴隶，难道不是吗？是吗？
This is not about denying yourself this or that. This is just about everything happens by choice for you not by compulsion. So taking charge of the elements is the most fundamental form of yoga and all yoga, whatever kind of yoga everything is an offshoot of bootha suddhi, either, it is in…it is on the track or it’s gotten distorted but everything is an offshoot of this.
这不是关于否定你自身的这个或那个方面。这只是关于每一件事的发生是来自你有意识的选择而不是来自强迫性。因此掌控五大元素是所有瑜伽最基本的面向，所有瑜伽，无论是哪种瑜伽，一切都是五大元素净化的衍生物，无论这些瑜伽是正统的还是被扭曲的，一切都是五大元素的衍生物。
