40 Arranging a Meal

【安排用餐】

你可以安排好你的日程，以便有足够的时间用餐。用餐的地点和食物应该是恰当的。我们吃什么非常重要。告诉我你吃什么，我就能告诉你你是谁。告诉我你在哪里吃，我也能告诉你你是谁。

我们就是我们所消费的东西。如果我们深入观察自己每天消费什么以及消费多少，我们将非常清楚地了解自己的本性。我们必须吃饭、喝水并进行消费，但如果我们不带注意力地做这些，可能会破坏我们的身体和意识。一顿饭是一个表达对前人以及未来后人感恩的机会。

[Arranging a Meal]

You can arrange your schedule so you have enough time to eat. The place and the food should be appropriate. What we eat is very important. Tell me what you eat and I will tell you who you are. Tell me where you eat, and I will tell you who you are.

We are what we consume. If we look deeply into what and how much we consume every day, we’ll come to know our own nature very well. We have to eat, drink, and consume, but if we do it unmindfully, we may destroy our body and our consciousness. A meal is an opportunity to show gratitude to those that came before us and those that will come after we are gone.
