Alice in Wonderland II：Who Are You? 愛麗絲夢遊仙境(2)：你是誰？

Because of my lesser mental capacity to comprehend the latest advice from Rinpoche at all and my laziness to even try figuring out the profound meaning within, a friend with apparently sharper faculty sent me this quote to “encourage”me.

So my reading at this moment is that I, as a deluded being, can not even see the real nature of myself, I have been changing moment to moment, everything is of the nature of impermanence,  any advice/Q&A also has no definite meaning, so no need to think too much…My laziness can really lead me a long way.

對於上師的隻言片語完全不能理解，也懶的想太多，於是利根的師姊送來這段引言。大概是說我是個迷妄的眾生，頭腦不清，連自己是誰都不知道……相續一變再變……於是我繼續不求甚解，反正問題和答案亦皆是無常。

The most famous quote from Absolem (AKA the Caterpillar) was “Who are you?”

‘Who are you?’ said the Caterpillar.

This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. Alice replied, rather shyly, ‘I — I hardly know, sir, just at present — at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.’

‘What do you mean by that?’ said the Caterpillar sternly. ‘Explain yourself!’
‘I can’t explain myself, I’m afraid, sir’ said Alice, ‘because I’m not myself, you see.’

“你是誰？”毛毛蟲問道。

這不是個談話的好開頭。愛麗絲有點害羞的回答：
“我……我現在不太知道，先生。至少在今早起床時，我知道我是誰。但是從那時起，我想我一定已經變了好幾回。”

“你說這話是什麽意思？”毛毛蟲很嚴厲的説，“好好解釋清楚！”

“哎呀，我沒法解釋清楚，先生。”愛麗絲説，“因為我不是我自己呀！”
