如何让悲伤成为成长的工具？
Questioner: Sadhguru, you were telling us how one can either come out broken or come out wiser from calamities. Can you elaborate on how sadness can be a means of growth?
提问者：萨古鲁，您曾告诉我们，一个人可以因灾难而垮掉，也可以因此变得更明智，您能否阐释一下悲伤如何可以成为成长的工具？
Sadhguru: Most people do not know what it means for misery to strike in the form of life. But for certain people, when it really strikes, everything that they valued in their life is taken away, and a deep sadness settles. There are many ways to handle this sadness. Some people just sit in a corner and drive themselves mad, making everyone miserable. There are others, who when they become sad, find a way of doing some useful work. Usually, it is people who have been hurt like this who become great karma yogis in their lives.
Sadhguru（萨古鲁）：大多数人都不知道痛苦的打击在生命中意味着什么。但对于某些人，当真正的打击到来时，他们生命中曾珍视的一切都被带走了，心中留下深深的痛。有很多种方法来处理这种悲伤。一些人只是坐在角落里把自己逼疯，让所有人都痛苦。也有一些人，当他们悲伤时，他们会找些有用的事来做。通常，就是那些在生命中经历过这种伤痛的人成为了伟大的业力瑜伽士。
让我来举个例子。曾有一个在Maharashtra当小学老师的人，他和他的妻子以及两个孩子住在Sahayadri山对面的一个村庄里。然而，一场可怕的疾病夺走了他的妻子和孩子，留下他孤身一人。他崩溃了，因为过去他的整个生命都围绕着这三个人转。他濒临疯狂，简直不知道该做什么。于是他走进Sahayadri山，坐在那里。
He remembered these mountains as they were when he was a child. They used to be green and full of trees. Now, when he was walking in the mountains, it was barren, hot, and unbearable. He sat there for many days, picking fruits and nuts, eating them and just being there.
他仍然清晰记得儿时这些山的样子，它们曾是绿色的，植被繁盛。而现在当他走进山里时，它却是贫瘠、炎热、令人难以忍受的。他在那儿一连坐了好多天，只捡水果和坚果吃。他只是在那里呆着。
After some time, he decided that only because this mountain had become barren, his life had been made barren. Whether it is true or not is not the point. He decided to do something about this. He lived there like a saint, single-handedly picked up seeds wherever they fell from the trees, and without anybody’s support, planted about 4 lakh trees and made them grow. He saw them through for 25 years. Today, 4 lakh trees are standing on the Sahayadri Mountains because of this one man. He is a yogi, though nobody taught him any yoga.
过了一段时间，他断定正是因为这座山变得贫瘠，他的生命也随之变得贫瘠。这是否是事实不重要。他决定对此做一些事。他像个圣人一样住在那里，只身一人到处捡从树上掉下的种子。在没有任何人协助的情况下，栽种了四十万棵树并照顾它们长大。他看管了它们25年。今天，四十万棵树木屹立在Sahayadri山上，只是因为这一个人。他是一名瑜伽士，尽管没有人教过他任何瑜伽。
From Sadness to Compassion
从悲伤到慈悲
One can make any emotion into a creative force in their life. There is no negativity in the existence. We may think something is negative and something else is positive, but a light burns because of negative and positive wires together. Negative is not something to get rid of. It is as important as the positive. If your sadness reminds you that you are incomplete, it is good. Make use of your sadness to grow！
一个人可以把任何情绪转变成生命中的一股创造力。存在中没有任何负面可言。我们可能认为一些事是负面的，一些事是正面的。但是一盏灯的燃烧正是因为有正极和负极连在一起。负面不是我们要去除的东西。它与正面同等重要。如果你的悲伤使你意识到你是不完整的，这很好。利用你的悲伤去成长！
When sadness sets in, if you become more compassionate, more caring, and more loving, you have some sense in you. When you get sad, if you get irritable and angry and think that the whole world is wrong, you are a fool. At that moment, if someone meddles with you, your sadness can very easily become anger. Will you make this sadness into anger or will you make this sadness into love and compassion? It is very easy to become compassionate when you are sad.
当悲伤降临，如果你能变得更富有同情心，更关心他人，更有爱，你是明智的。当你悲伤时，如果你变得暴躁和愤怒，认为整个世界都错了，你是个傻瓜。那时，如果有人来烦你，你的悲伤会很容易转变为愤怒。你想把悲伤转变为愤怒还是转变为爱与慈悲呢？当你悲伤时，是很容易变得富有同情心的。
Learning to use all your emotions creatively is very important. It is not just happiness that is important. If you have not known sadness, you will not mature. Only if you have known sadness and pain, you can be a mature person. Otherwise you will never understand what is happening with you, nor will you understand what is happening with anyone else around you.
学着创造性地运用你所有的情绪非常重要。不是只有快乐才重要。如果你没有经历过悲伤，你不会成熟。只有真正经历过悲伤和痛苦，你才能成为一个成熟的人。否则你永远不会明白发生在你身上的是什么，你也不会明白发生在你周围其他人身上的是什么。
