Questioner: What do you mean, wake up?
发问者：你说的觉醒是什么意思？
Krishnamurti: Are you awakened only by circumstances, by challenges, by some disaster or joy? Or is there a state of being awake without any cause? If you are awakened by an event, a cause, then you depend on it, and when you any dependence is the end of skill, the end 原由网ofwww.58yuanyou.com artistry.
克：你是不是只因为环境，因为挑战，因为某种灾难或者快乐才会醒来？还是有一种觉醒的状态不需要任何原因？如果你因为一件事，一个原因醒来，那么你就会依赖它，如果你有任何依赖，技巧就结束了，艺术就结束了。
Questioner: What is this other awakened state that has no cause? You are talking about a state in which there is neither a cause nor an effect. Can there be a state of原由网 mind that is not the result of some cause? I don't understand that because surely everything we think and everything we are is the result of a cause? There is the endless chain of cause and effect.
发问者：这另一种没有原因的觉醒状态是什么？你说的是一种既没有原因也没有结果的状态。能有一种不是某种原因的结果的心智状态吗？我不明白，是不是因为我们思考的所有事情，我们所是的一切，必然都是某个原因的结果？因果的链条无休无止。
Krishnamurti: This chain of cause and effect is endless because the effect becomes the cause and the cause begets further effects, and so on.
克：因果的链条无休无止，那是因为果会变成因，因又导致更多的果，如此往复。
Questioner: Then what action is there outside this chain?
发问者：那么在这个链条之外的行动是什么？
Krishnamurti: All we know is action with a cause, a motive, action which is a result. All action is in relationship. If relationship is based on cause it is cunning adaptation, and therefore inevitably leads to another form of dullness. Love is the only thing that is causeless, that is free; it is beauty, it is skill, it is art. Without love there is no art. When the artist is playing beautifully there is no "me"; there is love and beauty, and this is art.
克：我们所有知道的，只是有原因，有动机的行动，这行动是个结果。所有的行动都处于关系中。如果关系基于原因，那它就是狡猾的调整，因而不可避免地会导致另一种形式的迟钝。爱是唯一没有原因的东西，那是自由的；那是美，是技巧，是艺术。没有爱就没有艺术。当艺术家动听演奏的时候，没有“我”；只有爱和美，而这就是艺术。
This is skill in action. Skill in action is the absence of the "me". Art is the absence of the "me". But when you neglect the whole field of life and concentrate only on a little part - however much the "me" may then be absent, you are still living unskilfully and therefore you are not an artist of life. The absence of "me" in living is love and beauty, which brings its own skill. This is the greatest art: living skilfully in the whole field of Life.
这就是行动的技巧。行动的技巧是“我”的缺席。艺术是“我”的缺席。但是当你忽略了生命的整个领域，只集中于一小部分的时候——不管那时“我”如何不在，你还是没有技艺娴熟地生活着，因而你不是生活的艺术家。“我”在生活中的缺席，就是爱和美，这会带来它自己xNQZRNdK的技巧。这是最伟大的艺术：在整个生命的领域里技艺娴熟地生活。
Questioner: Oh Lord! How am I to do that? I see it and feel it in my heart but how can I maintain it?
发问者：哦天哪！我要怎样做到这点？我看到了这点，内心也感受到了，但是我要如何保持它？
Krishnamurti: There is no way to maintain it, there is no way to nourish it, there is no practising of it; there is only the seeing of it. Seeing is the greatest of all skills.
克：没有办法保持它，没有办法滋养它，没有办法练习它；只有看清它。看清，是所有技艺中最伟大的。
