((( Walking Up the Mountain 攀登高峰 )))
即將前往西藏,突然很想紀錄一下從教室的一樓攀向二樓的景象,是今年我佈置的,很特別的,本來整棟大樓住戶都不怎麼愛惜樓梯這個公共空間,自從這些畫掛上後,樓梯間也開始越變越乾淨了~
是一種愛護之心的互相牽引。
時隔12年,要再踏上岡仁波齊山的山徑,突然想起了Gurudass Singh的Walking Up the Mountain~前方不管有多少挑戰,好像也就消散了~
據說神山晚上開始飄雪了,也可能會下雨,換個角度看,有沒有可能除了山想召見我們,風、雨、雪也想來見見老朋友,換個視角,好像什麼都好了,什麼都沒有問題了~
兩週期間,所有的課都會繼續進行,代課老師們也蓄勢待發要相遇大家了~
Walking Up the Mountain
我們要回西藏了🙂

Walking Up the Mountain
In the Jemez Ponderosa where the pinion meets the sky,�And the hardest granite mountain meets the rain clouds, flying high.�As you and I look out and see the world spread out below,�With different eyes and hearts and all the different things we know.�There are cars down on the highway ten miles to the east,�See the gilt of distant sunlight in the rat tat dancing heat.�But to you, you see their faces and the failing lives they lead.�Then you wink at me and reckon there’s a way I might succeed.
Walking up the mountain,�And I’ve got you by my side.�I’ve got thunder in the valley,�And this bone-dry mountain high.�Walking up the mountain, climbing side by side,�Walking up the mountain, with you.
With you I’m never certain just exactly where I stand.�You scare me when you do the things I just can’t understand.�If I slow down, you tell me that I am moving up too fast.�If I speed up, you tell me slow down kid, you’ll never last.�When I ask you how to live my life, you laugh and ask me why.�You tell me I’d be better off to ask you how to die.�Come with me, we’ll climb up the sandstone to the sky.�Oh Yogi, son of Guru, come see with your own eyes.
Walking up the mountain,�And I’ve got you by my side.�I’ve got thunder in the valley,�And this bone-dry mountain high.�Walking up the mountain, climbing side by side,�Walking up the mountain, with you.
As the rain fell on the mountain, I saw every human life�As the value of a raindrop, falling from the sky.�It don’t matter to the heavens, just who lives and just who dies.�It don’t matter to the rain cloud, when the raindrop falls from the sky.�As the clouds blew off, I saw the stars shining in the night.�In the trillion points of light I saw that each one had a life.�Then if nothing seems to matter, tell me what’s the life to do?�You said the only thing that matters is the memory of you.
Walking up the mountain,�And I’ve got you by my side.�I’ve got thunder in the valley,�And this bone-dry mountain high.�Walking up the mountain, climbing side by side,�Walking up the mountain, with you.
And I felt like I was falling through the channels dark at night,�Saw the in and out was fast and hard as death and life,�Saw the baggage that I carried in the chambers of my mind,�insignificant as rain; a total waste of time.�Well I saw you standing smiling, I cried, ‘What right have you got?’�You said, ‘Listen son of Guru, I’m the best thing you have got’.�I’m the kindness and the comfort and the sorrow and the pain�I’ve got nothing left to lose and nothing left to gain.
Walking up the mountain,�And I’ve got you by my side.�I’ve got thunder in the valley,�And this bone-dry mountain high.�Walking up the mountain, climbing side by side,�Walking up the mountain, with you.
I don’t know where we’re going, won’t you help me find the way?�You say it doesn’t matter, cause we don’t know anyway.�We’ll walk back down the mountain, there beneath the setting sun�See the time of evolution, as only just begun.�We’ve got thunder on the mountain and the sunlight on the plains.�We’re always moving forward, never pass this way again.�With a smile and with a wink, you turn and walk away.�Oh Yogi, son of Guru, there’s still a chance, you say.
Walking up the mountain,�And I’ve got you by my side.�I’ve got thunder in the valley,�And this bone-dry mountain high.�Walking up the mountain, climbing side by side,�Walking up the mountain, with you.
攀登高峰
在傑梅茲松林,松樹與天空相接,堅硬的花崗岩山峰與高聳的雨雲相接。你我眺望遠方,世界盡收眼底,我們有著不同的眼界、不同的心境,以及不同的認知。十英里外的東邊,高速公路上車水馬龍,遠處陽光在炙熱的陽光下閃耀著金色的光芒。但對你而言,你看到的是他們的臉孔,是他們日漸衰敗的生活。然後你對我眨眨眼,彷彿在說我或許也能成功。
攀登高峰,你就在我身邊。山谷裡雷聲隆隆,而這座乾涸的山峰高聳入雲。攀登高峰,並肩攀登,與你一起攀登高峰。
和你在一起,我永遠無法確定自己的位置。你所做的那些事讓我感到害怕,我無法理解。如果我放慢腳步,你會說我爬得太快了。如果我加速,你卻叫我慢一點兒,孩子,你堅持不下去。當我問你如何生活,你卻笑著問我為什麼。你說我最好問你如何死去。跟我來,我們一起攀登砂岩,直達天際。哦,瑜伽士,上師之子,親眼看看。
攀登高峰,你就在我身邊。山谷雷鳴,山峰高聳入雲。攀登高峰,並肩攀登,與你一起攀登高峰。
當雨水落在山上,我看到每個人的生命,都如雨滴般珍貴,從天而降。對上天而言,誰生誰死並不重要。對雨雲而言,雨滴何時落下也無關緊要。當雲散去,我看到星星在夜空中閃耀。在萬千星光中,我看到每一個都擁有生命。如果一切都變得無關緊要,告訴我,人生還有什麼意義?你說過,唯一重要的就是對你的記憶。
攀登高峰,你就在我身邊。山谷雷鳴,山峰高聳入雲。攀登高峰,我們並肩攀登,與你一起攀登高峰。
我感覺自己像是在夜色中墜入黑暗的通道,進出如同生死般快速而艱難,我腦海中那些沉重的包袱,如同雨水般微不足道,完全是浪費時間。我看到你站在那裡微笑,我哭著問:「你有什麼資格?」你說:「聽著,上師之子,我是你擁有的最好的東西。」我是善良,是慰藉,是悲傷,是痛苦,我沒有什麼可失去的,也沒有什麼可得到的。
攀登高峰,你就在我身邊。山谷雷鳴,山巒高聳,乾涸如骨。我們並肩攀登,一起攀登這座山。
我不知道我們要去哪裡,你能幫我找到方向嗎?你說這無關緊要,反正我們也不知道。我們將下山,在落日之下,見證進化的時代,它才剛開始。山上雷鳴,平原陽光普照。我們永遠向前,永不重蹈覆轍。你微笑著,眨了眨眼,轉身離去。哦,瑜珈士,上師之子,你說,還有機會。
攀登這座山,你就在我身邊。山谷雷鳴,山巒高聳,乾涸如骨。我們並肩攀登,一起攀登這座山。
