气定神闲，何谓气？何谓定？

【视频部分中英字幕，完整版，见视频】

气 定 神闲

这4个字高度凝练了

一个人安然活在当下

内心自由自在的状态

Qì dìng shén xián,

these four characters well summarize

a state of mind which is living fully at present,

a state of freedom from within.

气

在中国文化里面

有非常丰富的意思内涵

这里咱们把气理解为能量

气定

意味着能量的消耗没有任何的冲突

所以心神才可以安定不乱

Qì

in Chinese culture,

has a very rich profound meaning,

Here, let's understand qì as energy.

Qì dìng

means the energy is being consumed

without any conflict,

so the mind can become

peaceful calm and composed,

not messy, so the qì flows smoothly.

气通畅

意味着整个内心与自然和谐地运转

能量没有浪费于各种的自我活动中

当一个人的生活

充满了各种的自我活动

各种的控制各种的欲望各种的想要

气则不畅

能量消耗充满了各种各样的冲突

心神散乱混乱

展现出一副非常忙碌的状态

其实是非常忙乱的状态

Qì flows smoothly,

means that the totality of the mind

functions harmoniously with nature,

the energy is not wasted

in all kinds of self-centered activities.

When a person's life

is full of all kinds of self-centered activities,

all kinds of controls, all kinds of desires,

all kinds of craving,

qì won't flow smoothly.

The consumption of energy

is inundated with all kinds of conflicts.

The mind is chaotic, turbulent,

exhibiting a very busy state,

actually, a very messy state.

所以

一个人若能彻底放下自我

走出自我

能量消耗不再有冲突 

气顺气则定

神才可以展现出一种悠然自得

悠闲的状态

Therefore,

if one could really let go of the self,

end the self,

the energy won't be consumed in conflicts,

then qì flows, the mind is calm,

The spirit of a person can shows

a state of peace and relaxation.
