75 REMOVING WRONG VIEWS

【消除错误观念】

人们认为耶稣、圣雄甘地和小马丁·路德·金是危险人物。这是基于错误的认知，引发了恐惧和愤怒。当人们充满误解和恐惧时，他们可能会做出暴力行为。像耶稣、甘地和金博士这样的伟大精神领袖在去世时并不愤怒。他们甚至对杀害他们的人感到同情，因为他们知道这些行为是由错误的认知、愤怒和恐惧指引的。我们的世界需要同情和理解，而练习正念是带来更多理解和同情的关键。深入观察，我们消除了错误的观念，理解和同情就会由此产生。

[REMOVING WRONG VIEWS]

People thought of Jesus, Mahatma Gandhi, and Martin Luther King, Jr. as dangerous people. This was based on wrong perceptions which gave rise to fear and anger. When people are full of misunderstanding and fear, they can do violent things. Great spiritual leaders like Jesus, Gandhi, and Dr. King were not angry when they died. They felt compassion even toward the people who killed them, because they knew their actions were guided by wrong perception, anger, and fear. Our world needs compassion and understanding, and the practice of mindfulness is the key to bringing about more understanding and compassion. Looking deeply, we remove our wrong views, and from there understanding and compassion arise.
