跟读练习: Thich Nhat Hanh on Buddhist Essentials: What is Nirvana - 通过视频学习英语口语
正在创建课程...
1
In Buddhism, we speak of Nirvana, which is the cessation of all suffering.
2
Nirvana, first of all, it means the cessation, the extinction of all suffering.
3
But our suffering comes from our wrong perceptions, avidya, misunderstanding.
4
And that is why the practice of meditation, the practice of looking deeply,
5
has the purpose of removing wrong perceptions from us.
6
If we are able to remove our wrong perceptions,
7
we will be able to be free from the afflictions and the sufferings that always arise from wrong perceptions.
8
You have wrong perception on yourself and on the other, and the other has wrong perception on themselves and on you.
9
And that is the cause of fear, of violence, of hatred.
10
That is why trying to remove wrong perceptions is the only way to peace.
11
And that is why Nirvana is first of all the removal of wrong perceptions.
12
And when you remove wrong perceptions, you remove the suffering.
13
And to meditate deeply, you find out that even ideas like a being and non-being,
14
birth and death, coming and going are wrong ideas.
15
If you can touch reality in depth,
16
you realize that suchness, means the ultimate reality is free from birth,
17
from dying, from coming, from going, from being, from non-being.
18
That is why nirvana is first of all the removal of notions of ideas that serve the base of misunderstanding and suffering.
19
If you are afraid of death,
20
of nothingness, of non-being, because we have wrong perceptions on death and on non-being.
21
The French scientist Lavoisier said there is no birth, there is no death.
22
He just observed reality around him and come to the conclusion that rien ne se cre, rien ne se pe.
23
When you look at a cloud, you think that the cloud as a being, and later on when the cloud becomes the rain,
24
you don't see the cloud anymore and you say the cloud is not there, and you describe the cloud as non-being.
25
But if you look deeply, you can see the cloud in the rain.
26
And that is why it's impossible for a cloud to die.
27
A cloud can become rain, or snow, or ice, but the cloud cannot become nothing.
28
And that is why the notion of death cannot be applied to reality.
29
There is a transformation, there is a continuation.
30
But you cannot say that there is death, because in your mind, to die means from something, you suddenly become nothing.
31
From someone, you suddenly become no one.
32
And so the notion of death cannot apply to reality, whether to a cloud or to a human being.
33
The Buddha did not die.
34
The Buddha only continued by his Sangha, by his Dharma, and you can touch the Buddha in the here and the now.
35
And that is why ideas like being born,
36
dying, coming, and going, being and non-being should be removed by the practice of looking deeply.
37
And when you can remove these notions, you are free and you have non-fear.
38
And non-fear is the true foundation of great happiness.
39
As far as fear is there in your heart, happiness cannot be perfect.
40
And that is why Nirvana is not something that you get in the future.
41
Nirvana is the capacity of removing wrong notions,
42
wrong perceptions, which is the practice of freedom.
43
Nirvana can be translated as freedom, freedom from views.
44
And in Buddhism, all views are wrong views.
45
When you get in touch with reality, you no longer have views,
46
you have wisdom, you have a direct encounter with reality, and that is no longer called views.

练习技巧
为了在英语口语练习中获得最大的效果，采用“shadowspeak”技术将特别有效。首先，选择视频中的一小段对话，注意其语速和语调。然后，跟随视频中的对话进行模仿，尝试与讲话者同步发音。由于这一段内容较深，可以反复播放，尽量理解每一句话的意义，这对提高英语发音和流畅度非常重要。通过不断重复练习，学习者将能更轻松地应用所学知识，同时在雅思口语练习中，能够更自信地表达自己的看法。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
