摘自《回家之旅》作者
Radhanath Swami的一次演讲
几天前，我看到有人在冲浪，就反思到人生有多像冲浪——因为那些海浪，一个冲浪手不能改变浪的方向，却可以根据海浪调整自己，让自己一直保持向前。
A few days ago I was seeing people surfing, and I was reflecting how life is very much like surfing- because the waves. A surfer can't change the wave, but a surfer can adjust herself or himself to the wave so that he or she keeps moving forward.
而我们周边的环境，有时，我们能控制一部分，可控的程度也有限，幸福、压力、荣耀、耻辱、喜悦、痛苦，海浪也许是一种顺遂我们心愿的浪——所有人都在称赞我；也许海浪会变成所有人都背离我的浪——没有人喜欢我的做法。
And the environment around us; sometimes we can control it to some extent, but there's a limit to that, Happiness, distress, honor, dishonor, pleasure, pain. And the wave maybe a wave where everything is going our way and everyone is praising us, Or the wave may go where it seems like everybody's abandoning us and nobody like what I've done.
这就是人生的海浪，不管我是谁它都会涌过来，但是瑜伽，灵性意味着帮我们调整人生，让我们可以继续向前行进。
These are the waves of life that come to everybody whoever we are, but yoga, spirituality is meant to help us to adjust our life to whatever situation may be so that we can move forward.
