Quotation No. 368

Specialness is not the truth in you. It can be thrown off balance by anything. What rests on nothing never can be stable. However large and over-blown it seems to be, it still must rock and turn and whirl about with every breeze.
(特殊性并不是你内在的真相。一点风吹草动都能使它失去平衡。凡是建立在虚无上的,永远都不可能稳定。不论它外表上多么庞大,多么虚张声势,一阵轻风就足以使它摇摆不定或被吹得团团转。) (Text-24 III.3:4)

Quotation No. 367

You are not special. If you think you are, and would defend your specialness against the truth of what you really are, how can you know the truth? What answer that the Holy Spirit gives can reach you, when it is your specialness to which you listen, and which asks and answers?
(你并不特殊。你若自以为如此,就会不惜抵制自己的真相而设法保全自己的特殊性,那你还可能知道真理吗?每当反问、答复,以及你所聆听的,都不外乎自己的特殊性,你还可能接收得到圣灵什么样的答复?) (Text-24 II.4:1)

Quotation No. 366

Pursuit of specialness is always at the cost of peace.

Quotation No. 365

The chains of time are easily unloosened. Let no one hour cast its shadow on the one that follows, and when that one goes, let everything that happened in its course go with it. Thus will you remain unbound, in peace eternal in the world of time.
(时间的锁链是可以轻易地松绑的。不要让前一个小时所发生的事情在下一个小时内留下阴影。当一个小时过去后,那一个小时所发生的事情也随之而去。如此,你才能无牵无绊地在时间的领域中活出永恒的平安。)  (Workbook-193 12:3)
