满月日和新月日有何区别？（今天是满月日）
Question: Traditionally, Indian spirituality has attached a great deal of significance to the phases of the moon. What exactly is the significance of Pournami (the full moon) and Amavasya (the no-moon)?
问：传统上，印度灵性赋予月相的盈亏以重大意义。Pournami（满月：月圆日）和Amavasya（新月：无月日）的意义究竟何在？
Sadhguru: Between a Pournami night and another night, there is a lot of difference. People who are a little mad know the difference very well! Let’s look at why this happens.
Sadhguru（萨古鲁）：满月夜和其他夜晚间有很大区别。有些许疯狂的人深知个中差别！让我们来看看为什么会这样。
It is like turning up the volume on the microphone. The talk remains the same, but suddenly, it is a louder and clearer. Similarly, if there was a little madness earlier, when you give it a little extra energy or increase the flow of energy, everything seems to be magnified. The energy is a little higher on the full moon day. It is not just madness that is magnified. If you are peaceful, you become more peaceful. If you are joyous, you become more joyous. Whatever is your quality, it gets pushed up. People only noticed madness because most people are in that state! But even if you are a very loving person, your love will overflow on Pournami.
这就像调高麦克风的音量一样。说话内容不变，但瞬间，声音更大更清晰了。类似的，如果之前就有些疯狂，当你给它些许额外的能量或增加能量的流动，一切都仿佛被放大了。满月日的能量稍微高些。不仅是疯狂才会被放大。如果你是平静的，你会更加平静。如果你是愉快的，你会更加愉快。不管你有什么品质，它都会被增强。人们只注意到了疯狂是因为大部分人都处于那种状态！但即使你是一个非常有爱心的人，你的爱在满月日也会更加满溢。
What makes the energy a little higher? One factor is that there is a certain aesthetic quality. Anything that you look at, if it is beautiful, your receptivity to that object suddenly becomes greater. Anything that you consider ugly, the moment you look at it, your receptivity comes down. The full moon has a certain aesthetic quality which definitely improves your receptivity.
是什么使得能量升高了一点？原因之一是，满月有某种美的品质。任何你见到的事物，如果它很美，你对它的接受度会突然变高。任何你认为是丑的事物，当你看它时，你的接受度就更低。满月有一种美感，这无疑会增加你的接受度。
Another aspect is that the planet has moved into a certain position in relation with its satellite, which makes the vibrations very direct and forceful. The tides rise on this day because of the gravitational pull of the moon. The water is spilling over and trying to “jump” up. Similarly, your blood is also trying to “jump”. When the circulation of blood increases in your brain, whatever is your quality gets enhanced.
另一方面，这一天地球和其卫星（即月球）的相对位置较为特别，这使得振动非常直接和强劲。月球引力会使得这一天海水涨潮。海水满溢并试图向上“跳跃”。类似的，你的血液也会试图向上“跳跃”。当大脑内血液循环增强，你的任何品质都会得到增强。
Subtle Energies or Powerful?
精微或强大？
Coming to Amavasya, there is a lot of difference in the quality of meditation on Pournami and Amavasya. For a meditative person, Pournami is better. But Amavasya is a good day to do certain rituals and processes. On Amavasya nights, your energies are supposed to be roguish. Like a rogue elephant, your energies run amok. That is why Amavasya nights are used by tantrics. It gets the energies moving. Pournami nights have a more subdued quality, which is more subtle, pleasant and beautiful – more like love. Amavasya is a baser energy. If you want to compare the two, you can say Amavasya is more sex-oriented and Pournami is more love-oriented. Amavasya has a grosser nature and is more powerful. Pournami has a subtler nature. You cannot feel the power, it is so subtle. The kundalini also behaves like this: on Pournami, it moves very gently and on Amavasya it moves in great bursts and thrusts. There is more violence about it on Amavasya.
说到新月、满月日或新月日的冥想，品质上差别很大。对一个冥想的人来说，满月更好。但新月是举行一些仪式的好日子。在新月夜，你的能量比较泼皮。象一头猛象，你的能量横冲直撞。这是为什么Tantrics（梵文，字面意思为一门技术或科技，通常翻译为谭崔）会利用新月夜。它使能量移动。满月夜有种更柔和的品质，更加精微、愉悦和美丽——更类似爱。新月是一种更粗犷的能量。如果你想比较两者，你可以说新月更加以性为导向，满月更加以爱为导向。新月有一种更粗糙的品质并且更加强大。满月有一种更精微的品质。你没法感觉到那力量，它是那么的细微。昆达里尼也是如此表现的：满月时，它移动得非常温柔，而新月时它激烈地迸发。新月在能量方面更为猛烈。
If you have some mastery over your sun and moon – the Pingala and Ida – the beauty of Pournami remains within you even in hot sunlight.
如果你对你内在的太阳和月亮——左脉和右脉——有些许掌控，即使在烈日下，满月之美也会在存在于你之内。
Pournami is a tremendous presence. The presence of the moon is so clear that wherever you look, everything becomes translucent. The vibration and light have a quality where everything gains a new kind of aura. The vibration and feel of the full moon is very different from the moon in other states. The Ida and Pingala within you also function in a different way. The prana, or vital energy, flows in a different way. You whole energy flows in a different way because the vibrations have changed.
满月是一种巨大的临在。月亮的临在如此清晰，以至于目之所及，万物皆变得晶莹剔透。这振动和光有种品质，能为万物增添一种新的aura（光环、光晕）。满月的振动和其带来的感受与其他月相时非常不同。你内在的左右脉也会以不同方式运作。Prana或者说生命能量，以不同的方式流动。因为振动的改变，你的整个能量会以不同的方式流动。
It is not that you cannot remain in Pournami every day. You can. If you have some mastery over your sun and moon – the Pingala and Ida – the beauty of Pournami remains within you even in hot sunlight. If you have a certain mastery and control, you can choose to have Pournami every day. Or you can choose Amavasya every day. Or you don’t choose at all: whatever is happening in nature, you enjoy all the stages of life as they are.
并不是说你不能每天都处于满月状态中。你可以的。如果你对内在的太阳和月亮——左脉和右脉——有些许掌控，即使在烈日下，满月之美也能在你之内。如果你有一定的掌握和控制，你可以选择每天处于满月状态。或者你可以选择每天处于新月状态。或者你完全不选择：无论大自然发生什么，你如是地享受生命的所有阶段。
Presence vs Absence
存在与缺席
While Pournami is a tremendous presence, Amavasya is an absence. A logical mind always thinks presence is powerful and absence means nothing. But it is not so. As light has power, the absence of light – or darkness ‒ has its own power. In fact, it is more overpowering than light, isn’t it? Night is more overpowering than day because darkness is just absence. It is wrong to say that darkness exists. Light is absent and that absence has an overpowering presence. The same can happen here.
满月是巨大的存在，新月是缺席。逻辑头脑总认为存在是强有力的而缺席毫无意义。但并非如此。正如光有力量，光的缺席——或者说黑暗——也有它自己的力量。实际上，它比光更为强势，不是吗？黑夜比白天更为强势，因为黑暗是缺席。说黑暗存在是错误的。是光缺席了，而那缺席有一种无法抗拒的临在。这里也可以发生这样的事。
In terms of qualities, Pournami is love, and Amavasya is aggression.
就品质而言，满月是爱，新月是进攻。
Even in your own consciousness, when you become meditative, it means you have become absent. When you become absent, your presence is tremendous. When you try to be present, you have no presence at all. An ego has no presence. But when you become absent, there is tremendous presence. The same is true with Amavasya. Gradually, the moon has disappeared, and that absence has created a certain power. This is why Amavasya is held as important.
即使是在你自己的意识里，当你处于冥想状态时，你是缺席的。当你缺席，你的临在是巨大的。当你努力变得临在时，你毫无临在可言。小我没有临在可言。但是当你不在时，就会有巨大的临在。这同样适用于新月。慢慢地，月亮消失了，它的缺席制造出某种力量。这就是为什么新月被重视。
For a hardworking, tough, aggressive person, Amavasya is definitely an important aspect. For a person who is very sensitive and subtle, Pournami is a very important aspect. Both have their own power. In terms of qualities, Pournami is love, and Amavasya is aggression. But we can make use of both. Both are energy.
对一个刻苦、坚强、有进取心的人来说，新月无疑是重要的一面。对一个敏感柔和的人来说，满月是非常重要的一面。两者都有它们自己的力量。就品质上来说，满月是爱，新月是进攻。但是两者都可以为我们所用。两者都是能量。
