Meditation - God's Advice

今天看到yahoo上的新闻报导,刊登了一位医生关于长寿的见解。我很惊奇地发现长寿的五种习惯包括:默想。
医生讲到现代人的生活节奏是越来越快,紧张、压力是很多疾病的根源。要想健康,就要学会默想。人类文明发展到今天,人才意识到默想和健康之间的关联。可是,上帝早在几千年前就赐下话语,告诉我们应该作什么 ({唯喜爱耶和华的律法,昼夜思想,这人便为有福。诗篇1:3),虽然上帝没有明说默想会带来身体的健康,从现代医学的证实我们可以看到,上帝对我们说的话永远都是为了我们的好处。

为什么人更愿意听人残缺的智慧,而不愿听上帝全备智慧的话语呢?

Unwind with meditation. Stress is the root cause of most of the diseases that shorten our life span. In our modern society stress will continue to increase - unless you find techniques to manage it. Meditation is the best way to release tension and revitalize your being. It teaches you to breath properly, which is critical for eliminating up to 70% of your body's toxins and wastes. It also quiets your mind, lowers your stress hormones, and teaches self-discipline, which is a necessary attribute to achieving your health and longevity goals.

科学家关于为何要默想的观点,我是赞同的。不过,关于如何默想,就显得不太智慧。你可以试试医生的办法地方:尽量把胡思乱想赶跑,让脑子空下来,看是否奏效。

Try this beginning meditation:
Sit comfortably on a chair or the floor. Breathe naturally and close your eyes. Each time a thought appears, put it inside a balloon and let it fly up into the sky and disappear. Do this until the thoughts are exhausted. After a bit, your body will feel very light, and your mind will become still. The first few times it may take a while, but it will get easier and faster with practice.

或许试试上帝的办法:安静在神的面前,思想神的话语,等候神。

〔 我的心默默无声,专等候神,我的救恩是从他而来。〕诗 62:1
