LESSON 83
Today let us review these ideas:
第83課的複習(第65-66的概念)：
My only function is the one God gave me.
I have no function but the one God gave me. This recognition releases me from all conflict, because it means I cannot have conflicting goals. With one purpose only, I am always certain what to do, what to say and what to think. All doubt must disappear as I acknowledge that my only function is the one God gave me.
More specific applications of this idea might take these forms:
My perception of this does not change my function.
This does not give me a function other than the one God gave me.
Let me not use this to justify a function God did not give me.
我唯一的職責就是上帝賦予我的職責
除了上帝賦予我的職責之外，我沒有任何職責。這一認知將我從所有衝突中解脫出來，因為這意味着我不可能有互相矛盾的目標。只有一個目的，我就始終確定自己要做什麼、說什麼、想什麼。當我承認自己的唯一職責就是上帝賦予我的職責時，所有的疑惑就一定會消失。
這一概念的更多具體應用可以採取這些形式：
「我對它的認知不會改變我的職責」
「它並不會給我一個與上帝賦予我的職責不同的職責」
「讓我不要把它當作上帝並未賦予我職責的藉口」
My happiness and my function are one.
All things that come from God are one. They come from Oneness, and must be received as one. Fulfilling my function is my happiness because both come from the same Source. And I must learn to recognize what makes me happy, if I would find happiness.
Some useful forms for specific applications of this idea are:
This cannot separate my happiness from my function.
The oneness of my happiness and my function remains wholly unaffected by this.
Nothing, including this, can justify the illusion of happiness apart from my function.
我的幸福和我的職責是合一的
來自於上帝的一切都是一體的。它們來自於神聖的一體，也必須被接受為一體。完成我的職責就是我的幸福，因為兩者都來自於同一個神聖源頭。而如果我想要找到幸福，我就必須學會認清什麼會讓我幸福。
具體應用這一概念的一些有用的形式如下：
「它無法將我的幸福和我的職責分開」
「我的幸福和我的職責的一體性完全不受它的影響」
「沒有什麼——包括它——能讓我的幸福與我的職責分開的幻覺變得合理」
