1
Let's pick up the thread again.
2
Your life is in a mess.
3
You don't want to get out of it.
4
There was another thing.
5
It's in a mess because you've got wrong ideas, not because there's anything wrong with you.
6
You're okay.
7
I'm okay, you're okay.
8
We're all okay.
9
We're great.
10
There's nothing wrong with us.
11
They put wrong ideas into our heads.
12
Somebody did.
13
We needn't spend too much time trying to catch the culprit.
14
But anyway, the fact is you got wrong ideas.
15
You know, it's like somebody gives you a stereo set and you get a manual of instructions that comes along with it.
16
They gave us the manual of instructions.
17
It was all wrong.
18
So you're not getting music.
19
You're getting scratchy sounds.
20
You're getting upset.
21
You're getting conflicts.
22
You're getting loneliness.
23
You're getting emptiness.
24
Now, there are many ways of putting the formula.
25
I am going to give you the simplest I found.
26
I am going to give it to you in the words of old Buddha.
27
Why did I choose him?
28
Because his is the simplest of all, but you find it everywhere.
29
It is the simplest of all, enunciated with limpid clarity.
30
You are probably going to disagree with it, but you cannot miss the point.
31
Here it is.
32
The world is full of sorrow.
33
The root of sorrow is attachment.
34
The uprooting of sorrow means the uprooting, the dropping of attachments.
35
You know there are desires on whose fulfillment my happiness does not depend.
36
You got lots of desires on whose fulfillment your happiness does not depend or else you would be climbing walls,
37
you would be nervous wrecks.
38
All of us have two types of desires.
39
We got desires, you know, we desire all kinds of things and gee, we're happy to get them and we don't get them, okay, too bad, we're not unhappy.
40
But we've got other desires, good lord, if we don't get that, we're going to be miserable.
41
That is what he calls an attachment.
42
Where do you think all conflicts come from?
43
Attachments.
44
Where do you think greed comes from?
45
Attachments.
46
Where do you think loneliness comes from?
47
Attachments.
48
Where do you think emptiness comes from?
49
You got it, same cause.
50
Where do you think fears come from?
51
My, how clever you are becoming.
52
Attachments, no attachment, no fear, ever thought of that?
53
No attachment, no fear.
54
We are going to take your life, go right ahead.
55
No attachment to life.
56
Happy to live, happy to let go.
57
You think that's possible?
58
You know something?
59
People have attained it, so it is possible.
60
Want to attain it yourself?
61
Attachment.
62
Sorry sir, you have AIDS, you only have six months to live.
63
Just six months?
64
Boy, that's a lot of time to live, that's wonderful.
65
Happiness.
66
Hey, this guy got no attachment.
67
If you were not actively engaged in making yourself miserable, you would be happy.
68
We were born happy.
69
All life is shot through with happiness.
70
Oh, there's pain, of course there's pain.
71
Who told you you can't be happy without pain?
72
Come and meet a friend of mine who's dying of cancer, and she's happy in pain.
73
So, we were born happy.
74
We lost it.
75
We were born with the gift of life.
76
We lost it.
77
We got to rediscover it.
78
Why did we lose it?
79
Because we were working actively.
80
They taught us to work actively to make ourselves miserable.
81
How did they do that?
82
By teaching us to become attached.
83
by teaching us to have desires so intense that we would refuse to be happy unless they were fulfilled.
84
The tragedy is, my dears,
85
the tragedy is that all you need to do is to sit down for two minutes
86
and just watch how untrue it is that you would be unhappy without A or B or X or Y or whatever.
87
Do you know something?
88
You won't sit, because if you sit you might see it.
89
You won't sit and look at it.
90
I know I wouldn't, I resisted it for years.
91
You mean if I don't get Mary Jane or I don't get John, I won't be happy?
92
Hey, wait a minute, that's false.
93
Before I met him, I was happy.
94
And you know something?
95
I once fell in love with somebody and then, well, I lost her and I was heartbroken.
96
So what happened?
97
I'm all right now.
98
So she wasn't my happiness after all.
99
Remember the time I was, you were a child and you lost something and you thought I'll never be happy without this.
100
What happened?
101
If we gave it to you today, you wouldn't look at it.
102
But why don't we learn?
103
Oh, no, no. We got to live in illusions.
104
It feels good.
105
It gives you a kick, doesn't it?
106
It gives me a kick.
107
We want kicks.
108
We don't want happiness.
109
We want thrills.
110
And wherever you've got a thrill, you've got an anxiety.
111
Because you might lose it.
112
Or you may not get it.
113
And you've got a depression following.
114
You've got a hangover.
115
It's so simple as I told you, I could put it down for you in two minutes, whether you will hear it is another question, that depends on your own heart.
116
So, here it is, the world is full of sorrow,
117
the root of sorrow is attachment desire,
118
the uprooting of sorrow is the dropping of attachment.
119
How does one drop it?
120
One only looks and sees that it is based on a false belief,
121
the belief that without this I cannot be happy, that that is false, the moment you see it is false you are free,
122
good luck to you, may take you one minute, may take you twenty five years, but the day you see it you are free.
123
Does this mean dropping of attachments, does it mean detachment from the material world?
124
No, no, one uses the material world, one enjoys the material world,
125
but one does not make one's happiness depend on the material world, is that clear enough?
126
Like look what I am saying is,
127
you really begin to enjoy things when you are unattached, Because attachment brings anxiety.
128
If you are anxious, when you are holding on to something, you could hardly enjoy it.
129
So what I am offering you is not a withdrawal from enjoyment,
130
it's a withdrawal from possessiveness,
131
from anxiety, from tension, from depression at loss of something.
132
Thank you.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
