小鱼寄语:对号才能入座。这是一个服从规则,适应规则的想法。给每个人贴上标签坐好,坐有坐相。可是为什么还有那么多人依然找不到归属感?瑜伽达人Morgan对“对号入座”这个想法提出了质疑。她认为人类作为社区群居动物,每个人扮演好自己的角色固然重要,但是当每个的角色被固定住了,实际上也阻止了我们跳入未知领域——也称之为成长。
一句话瑜伽,第321期Morgan:我认为作为人类,很自然地想把我们自己装进盒子里。我相信它给我们一种安全感。甚至归属感。别人把你装进盒子里也收获一种安全感。I think as humans it 's natural to want to put ourselves in boxes.I believe it gives us a sense of security. Or belonging even. It gives others a sense of security to put you there too.
别误会我的意思,社区很棒。但是,有时候,社区也是要求我们遵守一个叫标签的东西,当我们经历了变化并且不再和标签产生共鸣时,这个标签会埋下不安。Don't get me wrong. Community is great. But SOMETIMES, community is also the very thing that asks us to conform to a label, which can create fear in the future when we' ve been through changes and no longer resonate with a given title.
这实际上可以阻止我们跳入未知领域——也称之为成长。This can actually then prevent us from taking that leap into the unknown - also know as GROWTH.
在任何人告诉你、询问你、推荐你、教你你应该成为谁之前。你有没有想过自己到底是谁?Have you ever thought about who YOU really are? Before anyone ever told you who you should be. Asked,recommended, taught you.
我的人生总被问话。你觉得自己是瑜伽达人还是运动员?你现在是同性恋还是双性恋?你是素食主义者还是?你是基督教徒还是?I get questions all the time about my life.Do you consider yourself a yogi or more an athlete?Are you a lesbian now or bisexual?Are you vegan, vegetarian or what?Are you a Christian, or religious?
简单粗暴的来说,我的灵魂带着躯壳,这是我所知道的。I'm just a soul with a human shell. That's the long and short of it. And that is what I DO know.
甚至有时候我的名字也会变成我的标签。我爱我的名字,但是它不能定义我。我希望别人也能对我将心比心。Even my name is something that was picked out for me. A label. I love my name - but it doesn't define me.I hope people define me by the way I treat others.
顺便说一句,我希望我能在黑暗的世界里创造出一片光明。我希望我永远不会被我的肉身所限定,而是看到住在里面的灵魂。By the way I was hopefully able to create pieces of light in a dark world.I hope I'm never defined by my human shell, but by the soul that dwells inside of it.
