《道德經》第三十三章：「知人者智，自知者明。勝人者有力，自勝者強。」

Chapter 33 of Tao Te Ching states: “Knowing others means intelligence; knowing ourselves means wisdom.  Overpowering others means strength; overcoming ourselves means might.”

 

真正的改變，始於看見真實的自己

當我們站在鏡子前，其實不只是整理外貌，而是在探問「我真正喜歡這樣的自己嗎？」這是一種深度的自省。

從開放我、隱藏我，到盲目我，都是構成「真我」的一部分。

《道德經》教我們觀照內心，讓自我從混沌走向清明，從盲點走向超越。

讓我們了解：真正的力量，來自於內在的洞察與修煉。

外在世界的勝負雖然可見，但唯有認識自己，才能真正無所畏懼地面對世界。

唯有勇敢照見，才能溫柔改變。

When standing in front of a mirror, we are, in fact, not only trying to tidy up our appearance, but to ask ourselves “Do I indeed like such a me?”.  This represents an in-depth self-refection; whether it is the arena me, the facade me or the blind spot me, they all are a part of “the true me.”  Tao Te Ching teaches us how to observe inwardly, empowering us to move from confusion onto clarity, from the blind spots towards the transcendent.  It makes us realize: the true power results from the inward self-awareness and the spiritual cultivation.  Even though, in the external world, both victory and defeat can be witnessed, only by knowing ourselves, can we indeed fearlessly face the world.  Only by courageous self-enlightenment, can life be tenderly changed. 

 

*這是一門從內在出發，讓你學會「照見自己、成為自己」的課程。

* Starting from the inward, this course enables you to learn about how to “enlighten yourself and be yourself.”
