#选择
第一件事，我们提醒自己，我们必须选择在这一时刻来到这里。自然，它不一定是最舒适的时间，不一定说，我们将有一个最舒适的姿势，但这是一个选择，“我们是自由的”，其中一个指标就是我们能做选择并做出了选择，而这选择，不一定是最舒适的。
一旦我们做出了选择，那么它就给了我们一个机会，让我们坚持不懈，不放弃每一个可能来到我们身边的挑战。如果我们没有做出选择，如果我们被迫做某件事，那么沿途的每一个挑战都会让人觉得对我们不利，因为我们不想来到这里，当然后者可能是一件更常见的事情。但是，一旦我们做出选择去某个地方，去做某件事情，那么对于这段旅程中出现的每一个障碍，都会有一个更大更多的机会。它会成为给予你力量的东西，而不是把这种力量从你身上拿走。
#Choice
The first thing that we remind ourselves that we had to choose to be here right now. It was not necessarily the most comfortable time, not necessarily the most comfortable posture we are in, but it was a choice and one of the indicators that we are free is that we make a choice and it's not necessarily the most comfortable one.
Once we make a choice, then it gives us an opportunity to be persistent, to not give up with every challenge that may come our way. Something that would probably be more common, if we didn't make a choice, if we were forced to do something then every single challenge along the way, would feel that it's against us because we didn't want to be here. But once we make the choice of being somewhere, of doing something then there is a greater and greater opportunity for every obstacle that comes on that journey. To be something that gives you strength instead of taking that strength away from you.
#两条平行旅程
每次我分享这些话的时候，我都会提醒自己，在我们的生活中，有两个平行的旅程。一个是我们现在一起走的内在旅程，我们必须做出选择，否则我们就不会来到这里。而另一个是外部旅程。在我们的外部旅程中，我们现在所经历的很多事情都不是我们选择的。生活把我们带到那里，而且很多时候我们发现，因为我们被推入这些情况，那么这些情况实际上也让我们在日常生活中感到非常非常艰难，非常非常耗损。我们的内在工作是我们获得力量，获得能量，获得“被引导的能力”的地方，然后我们把这种引导带入我们的生活，并开始在我们的生活中做出选择。我是说，我们大多数人在生活中还没有做过选择。一个简单的原因是，我们所做的所有选择，其中大部分可能都是考虑舒适的方向，考虑更容易的方向，考虑避免生活的挑战。而事实是，避免生活的挑战和选择最舒适的方向不一定让你感到最喜悦。即它不一定最充满喜悦，也不一定最健康，而且显然不一定对我们最好。
#Two parallel journeys
Every time that I share any of these words, I remind myself that there are two parallel journeys that we have in our life. One is the inner journey we're taking right now together that we must make a choice for, otherwise we wouldn't be here. And another one is the outer journey. In our outer journey, a lot of the things that we experiencing right now are not there by choice. Life brought us there and very often we find that because we were pushed into those situations then these situations actually feel very very tough very, very depleting in our everyday life. Our inner work is where we will get the strength we'll get the energy where we will get the ability to be guided and then take that guidance now into our life and start in our life as well making choices and I'm saying that most of us haven't made choices yet in our life. And for one simple reason is because all the choices that we have made of, most of them were probably with considerations into the comfortable direction, into the easier direction into avoiding the challenges of life. And the truth is that avoiding the challenges of life and the most comfortable direction is not necessarily the most joyful. It's not the most full of joy and not necessarily most full of health and not necessarily best for us obviously.
#三种阻力来源
做选择自然会遇到我们内心的某些阻力。而这些阻力中的每一个都不是偶然的。它们是一个指标，我们称之为我们的业力倾向，我们的遗传倾向，我们从祖先那里带来的东西。很多这些阻力是多年来我们在这个星球上，在内部创造的，并且我们一直在挑战这些阻力，它们现在已经非常习惯，成为我们自我认同的一部分。但我们从没意识到，它们从很小的时候就开始发展起来了，甚至在我们有自我意识之前，其中一些阻力我们仍然每天在发展中。
因此，我们的内在工作实际分为不同的阶段，首先是不创造新的抵抗（阻力）模式。第二是，从我们已经创造的过去的抵抗（阻力）模式中找到好处和力量。最后，从我们从祖先回应生活的方式中获得益处，从挑战中受益。现在，这三者都可能是耗尽我们的东西，使我们的生活无法忍受，并给我们带来疾病。但实际上，这三种东西都有机会使我们变得更强大，变得更好，并为我们的生活带来快乐，其他都不需要改变，只要我们迎接、欢迎、回应每一个时刻新的能量体验即可。
#Three types of resistance
Making choices naturally will meet certain resistance inside of us. And each of those resistances are not coincidental. They're an indicator of what we call our karmic predisposition, our genetic predisposition, something we brought from our ancestors. A lot of those resistances are something that we have over the years we are here on this planet have created internally and have been challenge with a lot of those resistances they're very habitual now had become part of our self identity. Without us realizing it, from a very young age, a lot of them develop, even before we had our self awareness and some of those resistances we continuously develop still everyday.
So really our, our inner work is divided into different stages of first, not creating new patterns of resistance. Second is to, to find the benefit and strength from past patterns of resistance that we've created. And finally, to benefit from, from the challenges from the ways in which we respond to our life that we received from our ancestors. Now, all three could be either something that depletes us and makes our life unbearable and and brings us illness. Or, actually, all three of them have in them the opportunity to make us stronger, to make us better. And to bring joy into our life. Nothing else needs to be changed. But of course the the energy with which we meet, welcome, respond to each moment.
#教师和学生
在古代，教师总是挑选他/她们的学生。他/她们挑选学生的原因，我现在明白了，并不是因为他/她们出于任何原因的评判，或者认为，你知道，是不同人的差异。他/她们挑选学生的原因是他/她们想给他/她们，给学生们最多的时间，最多的关注和最多的好处，当他/她们选择学生时，他/她们知道这个学生将能够做出最大的改变。
#Students and Teachers
The ancient days, teachers always pick their students. Now the reason they pick their students I understand it now is not because they were judgmental for any reason or thought, you know, difference of different people. The reason they pick their students is because they wanted to give them, the student the most time the most attention and the most benefit and when they chose their student, they knew that with this student will be able to make the biggest difference.
#才华不等于幸福
你看这个世界上有很多有才华的人，很多人有着令人难以置信的巨大潜力，每个人都有隐藏的潜力。但我观察到的是，一个人的潜力越大，他/她们的内在潜力越大，他/她们的才华越大，这种才华和这种潜力给他/她们以及他/她们周围的其他人，带来的更多是痛苦而不是欢乐。你已经看到那些艺术家、音乐家、科学家们的极端案例，他/她们可能都被打包了某种反社会，某种自我伤害，他/她们可能对他/她们的才华非常不满意。
现在我相信，我们可以改变这种情况，而与BIM艺术的工作实际上从第一天开始，就在帮助人们系统地，不仅仅是在激发内心的潜力，而且还能让人在每一刻都能收获快乐。随着时间的推移，我们不断地在唤醒内在的潜力，我们不断地将快乐而不是痛苦带入我们的生活。而且我很高兴我们有这样的机会。这个团体实际上给了我更多的勇气，在未来去做类似的项目。所以再次强调，我们非常幸运能在这里相聚。
#Talents <> Joy
You see there are a lot of talented people in this world, there're a lot of people with incredible incredible potential, everyone has hidden potential inside of them. But what I've observed is that the more potential a person has, the more inner potential they have, the more talented they are, the more this talent and this potential brings them suffering instead of joy, and other people around them. You have seen, you know, the extreme cases of the artists, the musicians, the scientists, they're all come with a package that they may be extremely anti social They may be extremely self harm, they may be extremely unhappy with all their talent.
#The Art of BIM, we can change
Now I believe that we can change this and the work with the Art of BIM actually right from the first day, not only brings out the potential inside, but it also brings out the joy from every moment, systematically, over time, we continue awakening the inner potential and we're continuing bringing joy instead of suffering into our life. And I'm happy that we have this opportunity to do it and this group actually gives me a lot of more courage to have similar programs in the future. So again, we're very lucky to be here together.
#所需特质
我再次问自己，是什么让这群新学生如此特别，首先是一种承诺，每个人都可以看到。另外我们明白，他们必须处在他们生命中的一个点，在那里他们已经准备好要有勇气，而且要进入未知的领域。他们有某种不放弃，坚韧的品质，即使他们自己不知道。但我们可以看到这些品质。
关于这个群体还有一些其他的品质可能会被忽略，即使它们很明显。在许多的小组中，我说，你知道，一旦你来到这里，这是一个50/50的责任。我可以做我的50%，但你将不得不做你的50%。而你的50%，当然，是你继续的练习。我强调了分享你体验的力量。我强调了提问的力量。我强调了这不仅仅是为了你自己的利益做（因为这有时会有阻力），但实际要认识到，你的分享和你的提问，甚至你的练习，你的抗压力和复原力，不仅仅是为了你，它也在同时支持和加强团体中的其他人。所以我强调，我们必须处在一种付出与付出（给予与给予）的关系中，我付出（或给出我的）一切让你变得更好。而你通过给我机会指导你，给我机会回答你的问题和分享你的体验来给予，这就是你的50%。实际上，这就是一种给予-给予的关系。那我可能在这个小组中以这种方式说过，也可能没有，但由于某种原因，这个小组的成员似乎理解这件事，而且不仅是理解，她们在能量层面也准备好把它带入生活了，对吗？ 她们会实际地去做。我认为这就是这个小组和其他一些小组的主要区别，尽管是你们自己选择的，但你们选择来到了这里。我没有直接邀请你们加入这个项目，并没有正式邀请。我只是给了你这个选择，但我自己没有挑选，然而不知何故，我看到的是正是你的50%，使这个小组如此强大，这不是我的，不是乔伊斯的，甚至不是每天在那里支持你的学生的，但正是你的50%使它成为可能。
#Quality/Traits and Responsibility
So I asked myself again, what makes this new group of students so special, we understand the commitment is there everybody can see it. We understand that they had to be in the point in their life where they were ready to be courageous. And to go into the unknown. They have a certain qualities of not giving up a resilience, even if they didn't know it themselves. So those qualities we could see.
There were a few other qualities about this group that could be missed, they're still obvious, but they could be missed. And in many groups, I say, you know, once you come in here, it's a 50/50 responsibility. I can do my 50%. But you will have to do your 50%. And your 50%, of course, is the the practice that you continue doing. I highlight the power in sharing your experience. I highlight the power in asking questions. And I highlight the power to do it not only for your benefit, because sometimes there's a resistance towards it, but to actually recognize that your sharing and your asking questions, and even your practicing, your resilience, is not only for you, it is also supporting and strengthening others in the group. So I highlighted that we have to be in a give give relationship where I give everything I can to make you better. And you give by giving me the opportunity to guide you, giving me the opportunity to answer your questions and sharing your experiences. And that's your end of the 50% actually, and it's a give give relationship. Now, I may have said it in this way in this group, I may have not, but for one reason or another this group understood it. I could say it in a group but not only understood it, but also was ready in this energy in the being level to bring it into life right? to actually do it. And I think that's what the main difference is with this group and maybe some other groups that even though you were self selecting, you made the choice to be here. I didn't directly invite you into this program, not officially. I gave you that choice but I didn't pick and choose myself but somehow I see it's those other qualities of your 50% that makes this group so powerful, not mine, not Joyce's, not even the students that are there every day supporting you, but it is your 50% that made it possible.
And you may ask a question, Erik, why are you sharing all this? While we are in a meditative state? Is that part of our meditation?
#只有一个能量
你现在可能会问这样一个问题：艾瑞克，你为什么要分享这一切？在我们处于冥想状态的时候？那这是我们冥想的一部分吗？
答案是非常肯定的，因为我们说只有一种能量，而我们所做的是我们在测量或观察这种能量在不同阶段的表现。而现在，我只是观察了你所处的能量在“现实阶段”的表现。但实际上，我不仅可以观察你的现实，不仅可以观察你的行为，还可以观察你的身体。我本可以说，好吧，根据我们所做的工作，这些是你自己能收获的好处，这些是你的器官和系统收获的好处。我们可以在那里测量它，我们可以在你的思想过程中测量它。我可以说，好吧，这是你的思维方式，这些都可以是用以证明的证据。另外，和我刚才描述的能量一样，我也可以看一下你的情绪状态，我可以看一下我们谈到的不同层次的情绪，以及高阶的、更高阶的训练中谈到的，我本可以在那里去看。但我选择拿我们现实中发生的事情来做测量。更为有趣的是，我们（如何）做一件事，我们便会如何做所有的事。我刚刚描述的关于你，以及关于在这个小组中诞生的这种动态，其实也适用于描述BIM艺术和这个项目，也适用于描述你与自我（你自己）的关系，也适用于描述你在你的家庭单位中，与自己和与他人的关系。我也在描述你在你社区中与己与人的关系。这些事实就是我们做任何事情的成功公式。一旦我们在这里一起做到了这些公式，那么当然，我们就准备好去实施它们，并与其他人分享了。从家庭到我们的工作场所，通过做我们自己来实现和分享。分享，有时不是通过说什么，而往往是通过不说什么。分享也可以是通过身体和精神存在去分享的，通过能量，以这些新的方式去分享并做出改变的。我们每次都会在这方面做得越来越好。所以我希望这些对你有意义......我今天所做的，都是在现实层面上的衡量，但它完全是可以在我们称之为事物秩序（事情顺序）的每个不同阶段中去描述和衡量的。
因此，在这21天里，我的意图是向你们展示这项工作的内容。给你一些真实的经验和一些已经发生的变化，诸如你看世界的方式和你体验自己的方式，以及它们带给你的生活动力上的变化，但这正如我总是说的，即使我们的21天已经结束。这个“新的你”的旅程才刚刚开始，我很高兴看到你的旅程将继续以它的内容和方式去展开。
#One Energy
And the answer is very much so because we say that there's only one energy and all we're doing is we're measuring or observing that manifestation of that energy at different stages of it. And right now, I have simply observed the reality stage of the energy you're in. But really, I could have looked at not only at your reality, and not only that your actions, and not only, I could have looked at your physical body. And I could have said that, okay, based on the work which we have done, those are the benefits in yourself, those are the benefits in your organs and systems. We could have measured it there, we could have measured that in your thought process. I could have said, Okay, this is how you're thinking. And this is the evidence of this, and same energy that I just described. I could have looked at your emotional state. And I could have looked at the different levels of emotion that we talked about, and advanced, more advanced trainings. And I could have seen that there. But I chose to look at our reality of what happened and measured there. But even more so, what's interesting is that, as we do one thing, so we do all things, what I've just described about you, and about this dynamics that was born in this group, I'm also describing not only the art of BIM and this program, I'm describing your relationship with self. I'm describing your relationship in your family unit. I'm describing your relationships in your community. Those are the formulas of success in anything we do. And once we reach them here together, then of course, we are ready to implement them and share them with others. From the family to our workplace, by being who we are, sharing not only by saying something, but often by not saying something. Sharing is by being there in body and spirit. Being there energetically, and making a difference. In this new way every time we get better and better at this. So I hope that makes sense...all I've done is measured at the reality level, but it is exactly the same we could have described at every different stage of what we call the order of things.
So, in this 21 days my intention was to to show you what this work is all about. To give you some real experiences and some already changes in the way you see the world and the way you experience yourself give you the momentum change into your life but as I always say even though our 21 days are over. This journey of the new you has just begun and I am excited to see what and how your journey continues unfolding.
#自由，给予和选择
你是自由的，因为你在做选择。你是自由的，因为你在不断地重新定向你的意图。你正在做出选择，并在不断地将你的意图从简单的“接受”转向到“先给予再接受”。
我们的思想或头脑是如此有趣，当我们说 "给予 "的时候，我们马上就会问，它在哪里，它是怎样的？我在给什么？事实上，这不是从你的头脑中去给予，你是从你的心上出发去给予的，你的给予是对这一刻的欢迎，你的给予是你先对你自己，对你的身体，再是对这里的每个人给出的尊重，你现在就处在给予的状态。这是因为我们正在把 我们所做的一切从头脑带到心里。我们先要做，先要体验，先要在感觉的层面上抵达，只有这样我们才能理解。我们会在不同的层面上有阻力。正如我们所说，有些阻力是来自我们祖先的，有些是我们作为自我身份的一部分发展起来的，我们甚至在日常生活中，在我们还是幼童的时候，就没有意识到这一点。有些是我们不断与阻力斗争，是新的，每时每刻都在进行着的，但我们也许，直到不久前，这些阻力还在与你对抗着。从现在开始的每一天，它们都会变成“为你而来”的东西，我们将不再回避它们，麻木它们，否认它们。我们将欢迎它们。这不是因为艾瑞克这么说，而是因为我们现在认识到：从其间产生的快乐，它们都将成为你的。当你忘了我所说的一切，那么它就是你的，而不是我的了。而这，就是我们每个项目的目标。
也许不是说，要忘记我说过的话，但要忘记 "它曾被说过"，因为它将让你感觉到，它是你的。
有时我们会记住一些事情，一些知道的心智模式，我们会记住它们。但是会有一个时刻，你会重新体验和经历你的生命，你会忘记以前说过的话，你会觉得你好像是在第一次体验它，你会忘记在这方面有过指导，因为你现在是在某种“存在的状态”下，而不是在“知道的状态”。
我们得记得，我们以前从未有过这样的一刻，它将永远不会重复。记住你在这一刻是独一无二的，不仅是这一刻，你将永远不会再这样了，再象这个样子了，所以，给予它你的100%。
而你，是自由的。你是自由的，不是因为你决定要自由。
你是自由的，因为你重新定向了你的意图。你是自由的，因为你做出了选择。不是简单地因为你想自由和决定自由，而是因为你正在做出选择，允许能量，新的能量进入，并让它来释放你，自由你。
随着每天做出这种选择，并重新引导你的欲望，你意识到你是自由的，越来越多，这不是说，从某些东西中自由出来，而是你为某些东西而自由。换句话说，你正在接受某种意义上的指导（引领），你不知道被什么所推动，这不是被你自己引导的，即不是被你完全知道为什么要避免的东西所推动的。
#Freedom and giving, and choice
You are free. You're free because you're making a choice. You're free because you are constantly redirecting your intention. You're making a choice to redirect your intention from simply receiving to giving to receive.
our mind is so interesting because the moment will say "giving", we right away question of where is it and how is it? What am I giving? The truth is you're not giving from your mind, you're giving from your heart, your giving is the welcoming of this moment, your giving is the respect that you give, to yourself, to your body, to everyone here, you are in the giving state right now, first. And that's because we are bringing everything that we are doing from the mind to the heart. First we do, first we experience, first we arrive, at the sensation level and only then we understand. We will have resistance to that on different levels. As we said, some of that resistance came from our ancestors. Some of it is what we developed as part of self identity and not even aware of it through our life from the time we were young children. Some of it we're continuously struggling with the resistances, that are new, every moment. But right now we're up until maybe not too long ago, those resistances were against you. With every day from now on, they will become FOR you. We will not have to avoid them. We will not have to numb them, deny them. We will welcome them. Not because, not just because Erik said so, but because we recognize now the joy that comes from it, it will become yours. When you forget everything that I've said, then it's yours and not mine. And that's the goal of every program we have.
Maybe not necessarily forgetting what I said, but forgetting "it was said" because it will feel yours.
Sometimes we remember some things that you know the mindsets we will remember them. But there will come a moment where you will experience life and you will forget that it was said before, you will feel as if you are experiencing it for the very first time, you will forget that there were guidance for this because you will be now in the state of being, not in the state of knowing.
we remember this moment has never been this way before. It will never repeat it self again. Remember that you are unique in this moment and not only the moment but you will never be this way again. Give it your 100%.
And you're free. You're free, not because you decided to be free. You are free because you redirected your intention. You are free because you making choices. Not simply because you want to be free and decide to be free but because you are making the choices that allow the energy, the new energy to come in and free you.
with every day of making this choices and redirecting your desires, you realize that you are free, more and more, not free from something but you become free for something. In other words, there's a certain sense of guidance that you're receiving instead of the pushes the you're guided by, something that you don't know why as opposed to push by something that you exactly know why that you want to avoid
#Inner potential is like an inheritance, prove that you're worthy of it
你的内在潜力就在这里，它已经是你的了，就像一份遗产，对吗？是有人留给你的。这唯一的问题是，你必须证明你值得拥有它。你必须做出努力。你必须表明你会用它来做好事。然后它就会向你揭示，在某种程度上这就是它。你已经拥有它了。它已经是你的了。没有机会让它落入别人的手中，因为它不能。它只属于你。但是你仍然必须做出努力，做出那些选择，欢迎那些阻力，这样你才能接受它。
