UMUNYE NOMSHANYE NOMNTWANA

Iminyaka eyikhulu kufanele ibe yimpilo ejwayelekile yendoda neyowesifazane, ecishe ihlukaniswe izigaba ezine noma izigaba ohambweni lokuphila. Okokuqala, intsha, okuyisigaba semfundo kanye nokufunda ukuzithiba; okwesibili, ukuvuthwa, njengesigaba sokufunda kobudlelwano babantu; Okwesithathu, ukufeza, njengesigaba sokusebenzela izintshisekelo ezinkulu; futhi, okokugcina, okulinganiselayo, njengesigaba noma isikhathi umuntu angaqonda ngaso futhi enze imicikilisho yokuhlanzwa umuntu ajwayele ukudlula kuyo kwizimo zangemva kokufa, noma mhlawumbe aqale ukwenziwa kabusha komzimba wenyama.

Lezi zigaba ezine azihlukaniswa ngokulinganayo ngesikhathi; bakhuliswa isimo sengqondo somuntu, kanye nokucabanga. Ezemidlalo, okokuzijabulisa, noma izidingo zenhlalo nezokuzijabulisa zizohambisana nobudala bomuntu, izinhlangano nokukhethwa komuntu. Lezi zigaba ezine akumelwe zithathwe njengezidingo ezinzima kepha njengemisebenzi ekhethiwe, lapho umuntu enza khona akhethayo futhi akuthandayo.

Isigaba sokuqala siqala lapho umzimba wosana ungene kulomhlaba; kungumzimba wesilwane kuphela; kepha yehlukile kweminye imizimba yezilwane; luyinto engenakusiza kunazo zonke izilwane; alikwazi ukuhamba noma ukuzenzela okuthile. Ukuze uqhubeke nokuphila, kumele kunwe futhi kufakwe amakhodi futhi kuqeqeshelwe ukudla nokuhamba nokukhuluma nokuphindaphinda lokho okutshelwayo; ayibuzi imibuzo. Bese kuthi-ke ebumnyameni bobuntwana, kuqhamuke imvelaphi yobuntwana. Lapho ingane iqala ukubuza imibuzo, kuwubufakazi bokuthi into ethile eyazi, uqobo, isingene emzimbeni, bese kuba ngumuntu ongumuntu.

Umuntu ozibuzayo ozibuzayo wenza umehluko futhi awuhlukanise nesilwane. Lesi yisikhathi sobuntwana. Ngemuva kwalokho imfundo yayo yangempela kufanele iqale. Ngokuvamile abazali abazi ukuthi ababona abazali bento eaziyo, uqobo, eye yahlala ezinganeni zabo; futhi abazi ukuthi inokhokho abakhethiwe. Ukuzazi komuntu uqobo enganeni akunakufa; umzimba wobumbano okuwo, ungaphansi kokufa. Ngokukhula komzimba kuzoba khona, kufanele kube khona, umncintiswano phakathi kokuzazi kanye nomzimba wesilwane, wokunquma ukuthi yikuphi okufanele kubuse.

Ngakho-ke, uma umuntu oziqhenyayo engafundanga ngokungafi kwakhe ngesikhathi sobuntwana akunakwenzeka ukuthi uzofunda phakathi noma ngemuva kobusha; lapho-ke ingqondo yomzimba izokwenza umuntu owaziyo ukuthi akholelwe ukuthi kungumzimba, futhi ikuvimbe ekuzaziseni ngaphakathi komzimba nasekuthini ungafi. Yilokho okwenzekile, futhi kwenzeka, kubo bonke abantu okuzalelwa kulo mhlaba. Kepha akudingeki kube njalo, ngoba lapho into eyazi enganeni encane (njengoba kwenzeka cishe njalo) iqala ukubuza kunina, ukuthi yini nokuthi yavelaphi, kufanele itshelwe ukuthi kwakudingeka umzimba wenyama ukuze ikwazi ukuyivumela ukuza kulomhlaba wenyama, ngakho-ke ubaba nonina bahlinzeka ngomzimba wangempela okuwo. Ngokubuza imibuzo eyazi okuthile ngayo, ukucabanga kwayo kuzogxila kuyo esikhundleni somzimba wayo, bese kuguqulwa iziteshi ezifanele. Kepha uma icabanga kakhulu ngomzimba wayo kunokuba izicabangela yona, khona-ke iyaziveza ukuthi injani nangomzimba wenyama. Abazali kufanele baqaphele ngokucophelela izimo zengqondo, izinto ezihehayo kanye nokudonswa kwengane; ukupha noma ubugovu bayo; imibuzo nezimpendulo zayo zemibuzo. Ngakho-ke isimilo esisetshenziswa ezinganeni siyabonakala. Ngemuva kwalokho kungafundiswa ukulawula okubi nokufundisa, ukudweba nokukhulisa okuhle ngokwakho. Phakathi kobuningi bezingane eziza emhlabeni kukhona okungenani abambalwa lapho lokhu kungenzeka khona, futhi kwabambalwa kufanele kube noyedwa ozokwenza ukuxhumana ukuxhumana nokuzazi kwakhe kube kukhulu. Lapho ingane ifundile kangako, iyobe isilungele ukuthatha izifundo zayo ezikoleni ezinjengaleyo ezoyifanelekela insimu yomsebenzi ekhethiwe emhlabeni.

Isigaba sesibili, ukuvuthwa, kuzophawulwa ngezimpawu ezifanele zokuzimela nokuzimela. Umsebenzi womuntu emhlabeni uzofeza le nhloso. Ngesikhathi sokuthuthukiswa kwentsha kumele ikhiphe isidingo sobuhlengikazi nokuncika kubazali bayo ngokubiza umsebenzi futhi isebenzise izinsizakusebenza zayo ukuhlinzeka nokuzenzela indawo emphakathini. Ukwenza lokhu kuthuthukisa umthwalo wemfanelo. Ukuba nesibopho kusho ukuthi umuntu uthembekile; ukuthi izokwenza kahle izithembiso zayo futhi izofeza izibopho zayo yonke imisebenzi yayo.

Isigaba sesithathu kufanele kube isikhathi sokufeza okuthile, senkonzo yanoma iluphi uhlobo. Imfundo yentsha kanye nesipiliyoni nokufunda ngobudlelwano babantu kufanele kube ukuvuthwa okuvuthiwe okungasebenza kangcono umphakathi noma uHulumeni esikhundleni noma isikhundla umuntu afaneleka kuso.

Isigaba sesine nesokugcina somuntu kufanele kube isikhathi sebhalansi lapho esethathe umhlalaphansi emsebenzini wokuzindla. Kufanele kube ukubukeza imicabango nezenzo zakhe zangaphambilini zomuntu maqondana nekusasa. Imicabango nezenzo zomuntu kungahle kuhlolwe futhi kuhlulelwe ngokungakhethi ngenkathi usempilweni, ngokucabanga, esikhundleni sokulinda kuze kube nini, ezinkulumweni zasemuva kokufa, umuntu kufanele azihlulele eHholo lakhe Lokwahlulela yiConscious Light. Lapho, ngaphandle komzimba wenyama, umuntu ngeke enze ukucabanga okusha; uyakwazi ukucabanga nje ngalokho akucabangile nokwenzile ngenkathi esaphila emzimbeni wenyama. Ngenkathi bephila, ngamunye angacabanga ngobuhlakani futhi azilungiselele impilo elandelayo yasemhlabeni. Umuntu angavele azitholele isiqu sakhe somzimba, futhi alinganise imicabango yakhe ngokuphelele ukuze azame ukubuyisela umzimba wakhe womzimba impilo yaphakade.

Isimo esandulelayo sezigaba ezine ezijwayelekile yilokho abangaba yikho noma kungaba yikho uma umuntu eqonda ukuthi akayona imidlwane nje ngesimo noma isikhundla senziwa ukuba senze lokho izinzwa okungamshukumisela ukuba akwenze. Uma umuntu ezonquma ukuthi yini azoyenza noma ayengeke ayenze ngeke azivumele ukuthi enze ngokungathi, yizinzwa, adonsele noma aphoqelele ukwenza. Lapho ethola noma enquma ukuthi iyini inhloso yakhe emhlabeni, uzosebenzela leyo njongo, futhi zonke ezinye izinto noma izinto ezithokozisayo zizoba yile njongo.

Ekuseni kokuphila umuntu ozaziyo ungena emzimbeni futhi aphaphame lapho kuqala ubuntwana obungenakubonwa. Kancane kancane umuntu oziqaphelayo enganeni uyaqaphela ukubona nemisindo nokunambitheka futhi ehogela ezweni eliyinqaba azithola kulo. Kancane kancane ibamba inshokutsi yemisindo yamagama ekhulunywayo. Futhi umuntu oqondayo ufunda ukukhuluma.

Ngokukhula kwezingane kukhona imfihlakalo, ukuheha okuyinqaba, phakathi komfana nentombazane. Kuyo yonke le minyaka, imfihlakalo ayixazululwa; iyaqhubeka. Intombazana ibona ubuthakathaka ngamandla ayo; osemusha ubona ububi ngobuhle bakhe. Njengowesilisa nowesifazane, kufanele bafunde ukuthi indlela yokuphila yenziwa ukukhanya nomthunzi, yabaphikisi abanjengozinhlungu nenjabulo, okumunyu nokumnandi, ngamunye elandela omunye, njengoba usuku luphumelela ebusuku noma njengoba ukuthula kulandela impi. Futhi, njengokuvulelwa komhlaba ebusheni, ngesipiliyoni nangokucabanga kwendoda nowesifazane kufanele bafunde ukuthi izimbangela zokuvela kwezwe lomhlaba azitholakali noma zixazululwe emhlabeni ongaphandle kwabo, kepha emhlabeni ngaphakathi; ukuthi ngaphakathi kwesifuba ngasinye kukhona abaphikisi, ubuhlungu nenjabulo, usizi nentokozo, impi nokuthula, okuthi, noma kungabonakali, kugxilwe enhliziyweni yomuntu; nokuthi, ngokunamathela ngaphandle ngomcabango nangokwenza, athela izithelo zawo njengezifiso noma izimfanelo ezinhle noma iziqalekiso noma izibusiso emhlabeni wangaphandle ngokuphelele. Lapho umuntu efuna okungaphakathi kuye, uyoba nokuqeda ukulwa nokuhlupha, futhi athole ukuthula — ngisho nakuleli zwe — ukuthula okungenakufinyeleleka ekufeni.

Imfihlo nenkinga yamadoda nabesifazane yindaba yomuntu siqu yawo wonke owesilisa nawo wonke umuntu wesifazane. Kepha akekho umuntu oyicabangisisa le ndaba aze athuke futhi abhekane neqiniso elithile lokuphila noma lokufa. Lapho-ke lowo uyenziwa azi imfihlakalo, inkinga ephathelene nokuzalwa noma impilo noma ingcebo noma udumo noma ukufa noma impilo.

Umzimba womuntu uyindawo yokuhlola, izindlela nethuluzi ngazo zonke izivivinyo nokuhlolwa okungenziwa ngazo; futhi okucatshwayo nokwenziwe kuzoba wubufakazi nobufakazi nokukhombisa kwalokho okwenziwe noma okungazange kufezwe.

Manje kuzoba kuhle ukumemezela abasanda kufika, ukubheka ukufika kwabo kanye nokuhlangenwe nakho kwabo ezimpilweni zabo, futhi ucabangele abambalwa kuthanda ukunqoba ukufa ngokwenza kabusha imizimba yabo yenyama-ukuthi bangaba kanjani “ababanduleli” abazokhombisa indlela eya eMbusweni wezulu noma uMbuso kaNkulunkulu — i-Realm of Permanence - okugcwele kulo mhlaba woshintsho, kepha ongeke ubonwe ngumuntu ofayo amehlo.

Lapha bafika: izingane zabafana namantombazane wezingane! amakhulu abo, njalo ngehora losuku nelobusuku; baphuma kokungabonakali kuya kokubonakalayo, baphume ebumnyameni bangene ekukhanyeni, ngegesi kanye nokukhala — beza; futhi hhayi nje ngezinkulungwane kepha ngezigidi zeminyaka abezayo. Ezindaweni ezifrathekile ezisenyakatho nezineqhwa kanye nokufudumala kwemvelo kuza. Ogwadule oluqhakazile nasehlathini elingena ilanga, ezintabeni nasezigodini, olwandle nasemhumeni, angena ezindaweni ezinemijondolo futhi eziqongweni eziyincithakalo, afika esigodlweni nasendlini yomgodi. Zivela njengombala omhlophe noma ophuzi noma obomvu noma omnyama, futhi njengezihlanganisi zalokhu. Bangena ngezinhlanga nezizwe nemindeni nezizwe, futhi bangenziwa baphile kunoma iyiphi ingxenye yomhlaba.

Ukuza kwabo kuletha injabulo nobuhlungu nenjabulo nokukhathazeka, futhi bamukelwa ngokukhathazeka nangokuhlonishwa okukhulu. Bakhuthazwe uthando nokunakekelwa ngesisa, futhi baphathwa ngokunganaki kanye nokunganakwa okuningana. Bakhulela emimoyeni yezempilo kanye nezifo, yokucwengwa nokungahlonishwa, yengcebo nobuphofu, futhi bakhuliswa ngobuhle nobubi.

Bavela kowesilisa nowesifazane futhi bakhula babe ngamadoda nabesifazane. Wonke umuntu uyakwazi lokho. Kuliqiniso, kepha lelo kungelinye lamaqiniso athintekayo ngokufika kwezingane zamantombazane namantombazane ezingane. Futhi lapho abagibeli befika emkhunjini osanda kungena ethekwini futhi umbuzo ubuzwa ukuthi: Baphi futhi bavelaphi?, Kuvumelekile futhi ukuphendula: Bangamadoda nabesifazane futhi bavela ngomkhumbi. Kepha lokho akawuphenduli ngempela umbuzo. Abafana namantombazane abazi ukuthi kungani beza noma bafika kanjani emhlabeni, futhi amadoda nabesifazane abazi ukuthi kungani noma kanjani noma bafika kanjani noma bazoshiya umhlaba. Ngoba akekho okhumbulayo, futhi ngenxa yokuza njalo kwezingane zabafana namantombazane ezingane, ukuza kwazo akumangazi, iqiniso elivamile. Kepha ake sithi akekho umuntu oye wafisa umshado nokuthi bonke abantu baphila ngokuqhubekayo futhi abafanga; ukuthi, futhi, bekuzoba iqiniso elijwayelekile, futhi bekungeke kube nesimanga ngakho. Manje-ke, uma emhlabeni ongenabantwana, wokufa kufanele kufike umntwana womntwana nentombazanyana: kungaba isimangaliso esingakanani! Impela, lokho kungaba kuhle. Akukaze kwenzeke lokho ngaphambili. Ngemuva kwalokho wonke umuntu angazibuza, futhi ukuzibuza kungaholela ekucabangeni. Futhi ukucabanga kunganikeza isiqalo esisha sokuzizwa-nesifiso. Kwakuzofika futhi umfudlana oqinile wezingane zabafana namantombazane. Ngakho-ke amasango okuzalwa nokufa awavuleka futhi azogcinwa evulekile emhlabeni. Lapho-ke isimangaliso sizoba ukuthi umuntu kufanele azibuze, ngoba lokho kuzoba yinkambo yemvelo yemicimbi, njengoba kwenzeka namuhla.

Wonke umuntu ucabanga njengawo wonke umuntu. Ukucabanga noma ukwenza ngenye indlela kuphambene nokubusa nokugijimisa izinto. Abantu bamane babone futhi bezwe futhi mhlawumbe bayakholelwa, kepha abakaze baqonde. Abayazi imfihlakalo yokuzalwa.

Kungani izingane ziza njengoba zinjalo? Lezi zinhlobo ezimbili zemicroscopic zihlangana kanjani futhi zishintshe zisuka kumbungu zibe usana, futhi yini eyenza isidalwa esincane esingenamsindo sikhule futhi sikhule sibe yindoda noma ngowesifazane? Yini ebangela umuntu abe yindoda kanti omunye abe ngowesifazane? Umuntu akazi.

Imizimba yengane nowesilisa nowesifazane imishini, izindlela ezingaqondakali. Yizinto ezakheke ngokumangazayo, ezalungiswa kahle, nezindlela eziyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu emhlabeni. Umshini womuntu wenza yonke eminye imishini eyenziwayo, futhi ingumshini ngaphandle kwawo ongeke wenziwe omunye umshini noma usebenze. Kepha ubani owaziyo ngubani ngu noma ini yikho okwenza futhi kusebenze umshini womuntu?

Umshini womuntu uwumshini ophilayo futhi udinga ukudla kokukhula kwawo nokuzivocavoca ukuze kukhule umzimba. Ngokungafani nemishini engaphili, umshini womuntu ungumnikazi futhi uvuna ukudla kwawo, okuvela kumbuso wamaminerali nemifino nezilwane, nasemanzini, emoyeni nasekukhanyeni kwelanga. Impela, wonke umuntu uyakwazi lokho, futhi. Kahle kahle, kepha ngubani owazi imfihlakalo yakho, efana nemfihlakalo yengane? Kuyini enhlanyelweni noma enhlabathini okwenza ubhungane ushukela kanye nopelepele ovuthayo, ubhatata ocishe ube namatheki noma iklabishi, ugalikhi oqinile, futhi yini eyenza izithelo ezimnandi nezinoshukela — konke kukhule kuhlobo olufanayo lomhlabathi? Kuyini enzalweni ehlanganisa izakhi zomhlaba, amanzi, umoya kanye nokukhanya kube yimifino nezithelo? Yini edala ukuthi izitho zomzimba zigcwale njengoba zenza, kanye nemfihlo yazo yokuhlukanisa ukudla ezinhlanganweni zazo, futhi kuhlanganiswe futhi kuguqule lokhu kube yigazi nenyama nobuchopho kanye nethambo nomgogodla nesikhumba nezinwele nezinwele nezipikili kanye negciwane. iseli? Yini ukugcotshwa kwalezi zinto zokwenziwa futhi kuziphatha njalo ngendlela efanayo nangefomu; yini ebumba izici futhi ibanikeze umbala nomthunzi; futhi yini enikeza ubumnene noma ubuthuntu ekunyakazweni komshini womuntu, ngokuhlukaniswa okwakhe kusuka kuwo wonke amanye umshini? Izinkulungwane zamathani ezingafakwanga zokudla zidliwa nsuku zonke yimishini yendoda nowesifazane, futhi nsuku zonke amathani amaningi abuyiselwa emhlabeni, emanzini nasemoyeni. Ngale ndlela kugcinwa ukujikeleza nokulinganisa kwezinto ngokusebenzisa nangokusebenzisa imishini yendoda nowesifazane. Lezi zisebenza njengezindlu eziningi zokuhlanza zokushintshaniswa okwenziwe phakathi kwendalo nomshini womuntu. Impendulo yemibuzo enjalo ukuthi ekugcineni konke lokhu kungenxa yokukhanya kweConscious.

Manje lapho ingane yomfana noma yentombazane yentombazane ifika, ayikwazanga ukubona noma ukuzwa noma ukunambitha noma ukuhogela. Lezi zinzwa ezikhethekile zazisenganeni, kodwa izitho zazingakakhuli ngokwanele ukuze izinzwa ziguqulwe ezithweni futhi ziqeqeshelwe ukuzisebenzisa. Ekuqaleni ingane yayingakwazi ngisho ukukhasa. Kwakuyisize kakhulu kunazo zonke izilwane ezincane ezehlela emhlabeni. Kwakungakhala nje kuphela kuphinde kubuye unesi futhi kuxhube. Kamuva, ngemuva kokuthi iqeqeshelwe ukubona nokuzwa futhi ikwazi ukuhlala phansi ime, yaqeqeshwa ekusebenzeni kahle kokuhamba. Ngenkathi ingane ikwazi ukuzulazula ngaphandle kokuxhaswa kuthiwa yayikwazi ukuhamba, futhi ukuhamba kwaba yimpumelelo emangazayo yengane. Cishe ngalesi sikhathi yafunda ukuphimisa nokuphinda amagama ambalwa, futhi kwakumele ikwazi ukukhuluma. Ngenkathi zifinyelela lokhu kufinyelelwa, izinzwa zokubona, ukuzwa, ukunambitheka nephunga zazilungiswa emizimbeni yazo, futhi lezi zinzwa bezifakwa futhi zihlanganiswa nezitho zazo ezithintekayo iso, izindlebe, nolimi kanye nekhala. Futhi-ke izinzwa nezinzwa nezitho zomzimba kwakuhlelekile futhi kuhlobene ngakho besebenza ngokubambisana njengenqubo eyodwa ehlelekile. Zonke lezi zinqubo empilweni yengane bekufanele ziyithuthukise ibe ngumshini ophilayo futhi osebenza ngokuzenzakalelayo. Kudala ngaphambi kwalokhu, lo mshini ophilayo wawunikwe igama, futhi wafunda ukuphendula igama elithile njengoJohn noma uMariya.

Awukhumbuli noma yini yalezi zinto ezenziwa kanye nezehlakalo empilweni yakho, usengumntwana. Ngani? Ngoba wena kwakungeyona ingane; wena babengekho enganeni, noma okungenani, benganele wena wawusemzimbeni wengane noma oxhumana nezinzwa ukukhumbula intuthuko nezenzo zomntwana. Kungakusiza ngempela ukukhumbula zonke izinto umntwana ebelilungiselelwe zona, azenzile noma azenzele zona ukuze zikulungele ukuthi ungene kuwo futhi uphile kuzo.

Kwathi ngolunye usuku kwenzeka into eyinqayizivele futhi ebaluleke kakhulu. Eduze komntwana ophilayo ogama lakhe nguJohn noma uMary, kwaqhamuka into ethile ayaziyo uqobo, uyazi as ngokuba hhayi UJohane noma uMariya. Kepha lapho leyo nto eyaziyo yayikuJohane noma uMariya ayikwazanga ukuzichaza ukuthi ihlukile, nokuthi hhayi UJohane noma hhayi UMariya. Bekungazi ukuthi luvelaphi, nokuthi luvelaphi, noma lufika kanjani lapho lwalukhona. Kunjalo nangesikhathi lapho wena, njengomuntu oziqaphelayo ungene emzimbeni owakhileyo.

Njengomzimba omncane kaJohn noma uMariya ingane yayiphendule emibonweni eyayiyitholile njengoba umshini othomathikhi izophendula, ngaphandle kokuqaphela ukuthi kwenzekani. Ingane ibisawumshini, kepha umshini kanye “nokuthile” obekungene kukho. Ukuthi into yayiyini, ngokuqinisekile into ayengayazi. Yayizazi yona, kepha ayikwazanga ukuqonda ukuthi iyini; ayikwazanga ukuzichaza ngokwayo. Kwakudidekile. Bekubuye kuqaphele nomzimba lapho ihlala khona futhi ihamba futhi izwa, kepha ngehluleka ukuzichaza, ukuze ithi: Mina, lokhu, nami uqobo, nomzimba engiwuzwayo uyinto ethile in okuyinto I ngi. Into eyaziyo ke lizibona liyi- “I” eliqondayo kuJohane noma emzimbeni kaMariya, njengoba nje usucabanga futhi uzizwa ngezingubo ozigqokayo zihlukile emzimbeni, hhayi umzimba ofaka izingubo. Ngaleso sikhathi ubuqiniseka ukuthi unguye hhayi umzimba.

Ubusosizini olwesabekayo! Ngakho-ke, ngemuva kokubuza isikhathi eside ngalolu daba, umuntu owaziyo wabuza umama imibuzo enjengale: ngingubani? Ngiyini? Ngikuphi? Ngivelaphi? Ngifike kanjani lapha? Ithini imibuzo enjalo? Basho ukuthi into eyaziyo inesikhathi esidlule! Cishe yonke into eyazi ukuthi ingene enganeni iqinisekile ukubuza imibuzo enjalo kamama lapho nje ingena ekushayeni kwayo kokuqala, futhi ikwazi ukubuza imibuzo. Impela le kwakuyimibuzo edidayo, nokudideka kumama, ngoba akakwazanga ukuyiphendula. Wenza impendulo engazange igculise. Umbuzo ofanayo noma ofanayo ubuzwe yilokho okwaziyo cishe kuwo wonke umfana nentombazane esele emhlabeni. Umama wayekade enesimo esifanayo lapho u "Mina," wena kwaba ngaleso sikhathi. Kepha wayesekhohliwe ukuthi lokho okwenzeka kuwe ngaleso sikhathi, kuJohn noma kuMariya, kuyefana nalokhu okwenzeka kuye uqobo lapho engena emzimbeni wakhe. Futhi ngakho-ke ukunikeze izimpendulo ezifanayo noma ezifanayo kwimibuzo yakho njengalezo azitholile kubazali bomzimba wakhe. Ukutshele ukuthi umzimba omncane owawukade ukhona ngaleso sikhathi, wawuku wena; ukuthi igama lakho kwakunguJohane noma ukuthi kwakunguMariya; ukuthi wawungumfana wakhe omncane, noma intombazanyana yakhe; ukuthi uvela ezulwini, noma enye indawo angazi lutho ngaphandle kwayo ayetshelwe ngayo; futhi, ukuthi udokwe, noma udokotela, bekulethile. Inhloso yakhe nezimpendulo zakhe kwanikezwa ukwanelisa i wena, kuJohane noma uMariya, futhi ngethemba lokuthi bazoyeka imibuzo yakho. Kepha mayelana nemfihlakalo yokukhulelwa, ukukhulelwa nokuzala, wayekwazi okuncane kakhulu kunani. Futhi wayesazi okuncane kunawe ngalesosikhathi mayelana nemfihlakalo enkulu yokuthile okwakungeyona ingane yakhe kodwa eyayibuza, ngomzimba wengane, imibuzo yona kanye eyayiyibuze kudala.

Ingane yayiphile ngaphandle kokubheka esedlule noma esakusasa. UJohane noma uMariya kazehlukanisanga phakathi kobusuku nobusuku. Kodwa manje ngoba i- "Mina," wena, wawungene kulo, wawungaselona usana, wawungumntwana, futhi waqala ngokuphila ezweni-lesikhathi, ukwazi usuku nobusuku, futhi ulindele ikusasa. Kwabonakala isikhathi esingakanani usuku! Futhi yeka izinto eziningi ezingajwayelekile ezingaba khona ngosuku! Kwesinye isikhathi ubephakathi kwabantu abaningi futhi bekuncoma noma bekucula, noma ukuhlekisa nawe, noma uthukwa. Bakuphatha okwehlukile. Wawuyisihambi ezweni ongalazi. Futhi wena — kwesinye isikhathi — wake uzizwe unesizungu futhi uyedwa. Ekugcineni, uthole ukuthi akusizi ngalutho ukubuza imibuzo ngawe; kepha ubufuna ukufunda okuthile ngomhlaba ongaziwa owangena kuwo, ubuze nangezinto ozibonile. Ujwayele ukuphendula igama likaJohane noma uMariya. Futhi yize wawazi ukuthi awuyikho, namanje, uphendule kulelo gama. Kamuva, uye waphumula, futhi wafuna umsebenzi; ukwenza, ukwenza, ukumane uqhubeke nokwenza okuthile, noma yini nhlobo.

Kumfana nentombazane, ukudlala kubalulekile; kuyindaba engathi sína. Kepha endodeni nakowesifazane kumane nje kungumbala wokudlala “kwengane.” Indoda nowesifazane abaqondi ukuthi lo mfanyana omncane, othi ungumnqobi, angasho nje ngokusula inkemba yakhe yokhuni athi " kufa! ”bulala amabutho amasosha e-tin; ukuthi i-knight engenasimanga ibeka phansi ihhashi lakhe elinomhlwenga linyathela phansi engadini yedrako-eyimbi futhi liwukhiphe uqhume ngomlilo kanye nensimbi ngenkathi ifa ngaphansi komkhonto ongadingeki womkhonto wakhe wesgubhu; izingibe zezintambo nezinduku ezimbalwa zanele ukumisa nokumisa isikhonkwane esincane ukusuka ogwini kuye ogwini lwebhuloho; ukuthi ngamakhadi noma amabhlokhi ambalwa wakhela isakhiwo esihlahlela ifu esibhakabhakeni; ukuthi ogwini lolwandle umvikeli onesibindi wezwe lakhe uvusa izinqaba ezinkulu zedolobha nemizi, evikelwe yinqwaba yamasosha amabutho nemikhosi yamatshe amatshe nalapho imimoya nemisinga ingavimbi khona; ukuthi izinkinobho zemali nezimbambo zikakotini noma zommbila isikhulu somthengisi esincane sithenga noma sithengise isivuno esikhulu, bese sihambisa izindwangu ezinkulu zezindwangu nokudla kokuya ogwini lwangaphandle ngomkhumbi wakhe omkhulu wezikejana zamaphepha ezihamba olwandle oluphakeme — emanzini amancane, esitsheni sikanina.

Kufinyelelwe intombazane kuyamangaza kancane kunezenzo ezinkulu zomfana. Emizuzwini embalwa uvusa kalula umndeni omkhulu, afundise abafana namantombazane imisebenzi yabo ehlukile, ayishade, futhi avuse enye inkatho. Ngomzuzu olandelayo uthola okunye ukuphuma kwamandla akhe ngoku-oda ukwakhiwa kwesakhiwo senqaba, anakekele impahla yayo engafani nabangane abajabulisa noma yonke indawo esemaphandleni. Izinto ezimangalisa azakhela kunoma yini ekhona futhi abize izingane zakhe nezingane, zinamanani alinganayo noma amakhulu kunodoli abizayo. Ngobambo noma izimbambo udala noma ahlobise abesilisa nabesifazane noma ezinye izinto ezinjengokumthanda kwakhe ubuhle. I-attic enodoti wayo uyiguqula ibe isigodlo futhi ithola ubukhosi; noma unika umncintiswano omkhulu, kunoma iyiphi indawo yegumbi lakhe. Ngemuva kwalokho angahamba ngokuzumayo ayogcina isikhathi sokuya engadini kungekho muntu othize. Lapho, izivakashi zenkanuko zingamhambisa ezimobeni noma zimkhombise izimangaliso zase Faanland. Elinye lamalungelo akhe, lapho ekhetha, ukudala noma yini ayithandayo ngaphandle kokuthola lutho.

Lokhu okwenziwe kungenzeka kungabi nje okuzuzisa owenze yedwa. Amanye amantombazane nabafana bangabelwa izingxenye ezithile futhi bangasiza ukwenza noma yini eyenzekayo. Impela, ukusebenza okumangazayo komuntu kungashintshwa kuye kunoma yini omunye ayikisayo, futhi yilowo nalowo ophathi uyabona futhi uyakuqonda okwenziwa abanye. Bonke baphila ezweni lomfana nentombazane. Konke kuyamangaza noma akukho lutho oluxakile. Noma yini ingenzeka. Umhlaba wabo wumhlaba wokukhohlisa.

Umhlaba wokuzenzisa! Umfana nentombazane bangene kanjani kuyo? Bangena kuyo futhi basiza ukuyigcina ngokuxhumana nezinzwa zokubona nomsindo nokunambitha nokuhogela, bese bebona futhi bezwa nokunambitha nokunuka. Cishe ngesikhathi sokukhumbula komuntu okokuqala komhlaba, "into eyaziyo" ingene kumfana noma entombini. Yayingaboni noma ingezwa futhi yayingakwazi ukunambitha noma ukuhogela, kepha kancane kancane yangena egiyeni ngalezo zinzwa zomzimba futhi yafunda ukuzisebenzisa. Ngemuva kwalokho kwaqala ukuphupha, futhi bathola ukuthi kwakusezweni eliyinqaba, futhi bengazi ukuthi benzeni ngakho. Isidumbu sesilwane esincane lapho sathola khona sasifundiswe ukuveza ukuphefumula kwaso kube yimisindo yamagama. Lamagama ahlelwe ezingxenyeni zenkulumo ezisetshenziswa ngabantu ukumela izinto nokwenzeka kwezwe eliyinqaba okwakukhona kulo, ukuze abantu emhlabeni bakwazi ukukhuluma nomunye ngalokho abakubonile nabakuzwile, nokuthi bebengachaza lezi zinto komunye nomunye futhi batshele ukuthi bacabangani nganoma yini. Umfana nentombazane babefunde ukubiza la magama, njengoba kwenza upholi. Kepha ukuthi kumfana noma entombazaneni okwakukhona “okuthile” uqobo, wafunda ukuthi lelo gama lisho ukuthini futhi uyazi ukuthi lalikhuluma ngani. Hhayi, ngesikhathi lapho umfana noma intombazane ekwenza lokhu, owazi okuthile kuye noma kuye waqala ukucabanga futhi nokubuza imibuzo ngokwayo, nangomzimba, nezwe elizithole likuyo. Vele alikwazanga ukuthola ukuthi laliyini, ngoba izinzwa zomzimba zazingalitshela ngomzimba kuphela; kwakudidekile; yayilahlekelwe inkumbulo yokuthi ngubani noma yini, njengamadoda noma abesifazane baba nezikhathi ze-amnesia lapho belahlekelwa amandla abo okukhuluma noma bakhohlwe ubunikazi babo. Lapho-ke bekungekho noyedwa owayengasho lutho ngaye, ngoba into “ezazi ngayo” kuyo yonke indoda noma owesifazane yayikade ikhohliwe. Kwakungekho mazwi ukuthi into eyaziwayo engayisebenzisa ukutshela uqobo lwayo, noma ngabe yayikhululekile ngokwanele ukwenza kanjalo; amagama asho okuthile ngomzimba nangomhlaba owuzungezile. Futhi lapho ibona futhi izwa okuncane yayikwazi ukuzicabangela yona; futhi, ngakolunye uhlangothi, lapho icabanga ngokwayo ngokwayo ukuthi incane kangakanani uma ikwazi ngomzimba wayo nangomhlaba. Kwazama ukwenza izinhlobo ezimbili zokucabanga. Olunye uhlobo lwalungolwakho, kanti olunye lwalumayelana nomzimba okwakukhona ngalo futhi ngabantu nangezwe elizungezile. Ayikwazanga ukuzivumelanisa nomzimba wayo nendawo ezungezile, futhi ayikwazanga ukuzihlukanisa ngokusobala kulokhu. Kwakuyisimo esingajabulisi futhi esididekile, njengokuzama ukuba yiso uqobo futhi kungabi ngasikhathi sinye, futhi singazwisisi ezinye zezinto esasizama ukuba yiso. Ngakho-ke, akunakuba yikho ngokuphelele noma kube ngumzimba ngokuphelele. Kwakungeke kube ngokwayo ngokuphelele ngenxa yengxenye yayo uqobo eyayilolongwe emzimbeni izinzwa zomzimba, futhi ayikwazanga ukucabanga futhi kuphila emhlabeni wendoda nowesifazane ngoba izitho zomzimba okwakukhona kuzo okungakhuli ngokwanele ukuze icabange futhi iphile ngokwayo emaphethini omhlaba nowesilisa nowesifazane.

Kungani umhlaba womfana nentombazane uyizwe labazikhohlisayo? Ngoba yonke into ekuyo ingokoqobo futhi akukho lutho olungokoqobo. Yonke into esemhlabeni ibonakala ingokoqobo emiqondweni yomzimba lapho "into ethile eyaziyo" emzimbeni iziveza nezinzwa, futhi akukho lutho lwangempela kulokho okwaziyo lapho izazi hhayi zomzimba noma izinzwa zomzimba. Umzimba awuzazi ngokwawo njengomzimba, izinzwa azizazi njengezinzwa, futhi awazi umzimba nhlobo. Izinzwa zingamathuluzi, futhi umzimba uyithuluzi noma umshini, lapho izinzwa zisetshenziswa njengezinsimbi zomculo. Lokhu abazazi nganoma iyiphi indlela, futhi into eyaziyo eyisebenzisayo njengezinto zokusebenzisa ayazi kubo noma ngezinto zomhlaba lapho isilele ubuthongo obukhulu. Ebuthongweni obukhulu “into ethile” ayithinteki nomzimba nezinzwa zayo, ngakho-ke, ayazi ngabo noma ngomzimba noma ngomhlaba. Lapho-ke umzimba nezinzwa zawo ngeke kuxhumana ngandlela thile nokuthile okwaziyo. Ngenkathi umzimba ulele into eyaziyo ibuyela engxenyeni yayo ngokwayo engeyona eyegiya nomzimba. Lapho into eyaziyo ibuya, futhi ibuye ixhumane nomzimba ishayeke ngokukhohlwa yodwa. Kubuye kufakwe izingqondo ngokubona nokuzwa izinto kanye negama lomzimba okufanele liwuthathe. Kuyazibona njengengokoqobo nezinto zezinto njengokungengokwengqondo lapho izicabangela yona; futhi iyazi ukuthi izinto zomhlaba zingezangempela lapho zicabanga ngokusebenzisa izinzwa.

Ngaphambi kokuba ukwazi okuthile kuvalwe ngokuphelele izinzwa zomzimba kuyinto esesimweni esiyindida. Iyazazi njengento okungeyona eyomzimba, kepha ayinakukwazi ukuhlukanisa umzimba wayo njengongazi uqobo. Kuyazi ukuthi zonke izinto zingenzeka kuso, njengento eyaziyo; futhi iyazi ukuthi ikhawulelwe ezintweni zonke ngomzimba wayo. Kukhona ukuzethemba kukho konke, futhi akukho siqiniseko saphakade sanoma yini. Noma yini ingakhiwa mzuzwana, futhi ngombala ingenziwa inyamalale noma iguqulwe iye kwenye into, ngokwesifiso. I-sawhorse ingahle isetshenziswe njengebhokisi lezinsipho kanye nebhokisi lensipho njengenqola yegolide, futhi ngasikhathi sinye singaba uswakama kanye nebhokisi lensipho, noma zingaba ezinye izinto, noma zingabi nalutho, ngokufuna ukuba babe njalo noma ukungabi yikho. Lapho-ke izinto azikho, ngokucabanga ukuthi azikho; nezinto ezingekho, ngokuzifisa ukuba zibe. Manje lokho kulula — futhi kuyihlaya kakhulu ukukholelwa! Yebo, into eyaziyo emzimbeni eyazi ngokwayo neyomzimba, futhi ngokucabanga iyazi ukuthi akuwona umzimba, futhi nangokucabanga izenza ikholelwe ukuthi kungumzimba, ifunda ukulandela lapho umzimba uzwa khona ukuhola, futhi njengokuthandeka kwayo. Kungaleso sizathu into eyaziwayo kumfana nentombazane yenza umhlaba wokuzikhohlisa futhi uphila kuwo — nokuthi amadoda nabesifazane bacishe babe, uma kungenjalo impela, abazi lutho.

Into eyaziyo ukuthi ayisiwo umzimba onegama ngoba: iyazi ukuthi iyazi; abazi ukuthi umzimba uyazi njengengxenye yawo; ayazi njengengxenye yomzimba; ngakho-ke, njengento eyaziyo, ihlukile futhi ihlukile emzimbeni okuyo, futhi akulona igama ephendula kuyo. Into eyaziyo ayicabangi ngalokhu. Kuwo amaqiniso ayabonakala-lokho kwanele.

Kepha okwaziyo kumfana noma kwentombazane kuyaqapheleka; liqhathanisa futhi ngezinye izikhathi lisho ngalokho elikubonayo nelikuzwayo. Uma kungayaliwe kuzozibonela ngokwako ukuthi kukhona ukusetshenziswa okuthile ekukhulumeni nasekuziphatheni kwabantu abahlukile ebudlelwaneni obuthile ababuphathanayo, phakathi kwabazali, izingane, abendlu, izivakashi, kanye nemibuthano yokuzijabulisa. Into eyaziyo enganeni ibona okungaphezulu kakhulu kokuthi ingane inikezwe udumo ngayo. Kuyabona ukuthi wonke umuntu uyasho futhi enze lokho okushiwo yilowo nalowo omunye umuntu futhi akwenze, yilowo nalowo endaweni yakhe nasebuhlotsheni bakhe nabanye. Wonke umuntu ubonakala elingisa abanye. Ngakho-ke, lapho abafana namantombazane bethatha izitho zabo futhi bezidlala, lezi zibaluleke kakhulu futhi zinjalo njengoba zinjalo izingxenye ezenziwa ngabesilisa nabesifazane. Babona izingxenye njengomdlalo, umdlalo wokuzenzisa.

Abafana namantombazane bazoqhubeka nemisebenzi yabo nomaphi lapho bekhona. Abekho, kulonyaka wanamuhla, abaphazanyiswa ubukhona babadala babo. Lapho bebuzwa maqondana nokudlala kwabo “okungenangqondo” noma “okungenangqondo”, bayachaza kalula. Kodwa bazizwa baphethwe kabi noma baphathwe ngokungafanele lapho lokho abakushoyo noma abakwenzayo kuhlekiswa. Futhi bahlala behawukela amadoda nabesifazane abangakwazi ukuqonda.

Lapho into eyazi ifundile ukudlala ingxenye yomzimba negama eliye layicabanga, iyaqaphela ukuthi ingakhetha noma yiliphi elinye igama lomzimba kaJohane noma uMariya bese idlala ingxenye ethathiwe. Izwa amagama abantu, ezilwane nawezinto ezishiwo amadoda nabesifazane, futhi ithatha futhi idlale ingxenye yomuntu, isilwane noma into eshaya inkambiso yayo nokuthi ukhetha ukuyidlala kanjani. Ngakho-ke into eqondayo ifunda ubuciko bokulingisa kanye nobuciko bemasquerade. Kuyinto yemvelo futhi kulula ngayo ukuthi ibambe igama futhi idlale ingxenye kababa, umama, amasosha, ukubiza amagama, ukuhweba noma isilwane, njengoba kunjalo ukuphendula igama bese udlala ingxenye kaJohn noma kaMariya. Kuyazi ukuthi empeleni awusiwo umzimba ogama lakhe nguJohane noma uMariya njengoba nje ungomunye umzimba onegama. Ngakho-ke ingahle ibize nomzimba okulo elinye igama bese idlala leyo ngxenye.

Yini eyenziwa ngumfana nentombazane ngemibuzo ephaphaza futhi ibaphazamisa? Lutho. Azikho izimpendulo ezibagculisayo. Futhi akukho okungenziwa ngakho. Ngakho-ke bafunda ukungazithathi kalula izinto njengoba zinjalo. Into entsha ngayinye ekuqaleni iyamangalisa futhi ngesikhashana esincane nje iyindawo evamile.

UJohn Little ephethe ipistol yakhe ebhulukwe ingangena kunoma iyiphi ibhange, khona lapho umgwaqo noma ngemuva kwegceke lakhe, futhi ayale: ngaphambi kwalesosibhamu esesabekayo, wonke umuntu uyathobela futhi athuke. Lapho-ke umphangi ongesabi uyaqoqana ayothatha impango.

UJohn uphuca uMariya futhi bobabili bacashe futhi bajabule ngenkathi abanye abafana namantombazane begijimisa ngenkani bezungeza, befuna futhi benikela ngemivuzo yokubuya kwengane ethandekayo. Bese kuba nenjabulo enkulu lapho umphangi ongenanhliziyo ethola isihlengo, ekhokhwa ezikhokhelweni zamaphephandaba bese kuthi uMariya omncane omncane athole.

Abesilisa nabesifazane abazithokozisi lezi “prank,” futhi abakwazi ukuziqonda, ngoba kudala bashiya umfana nentombazane emhlabeni futhi manje abakwazi lokho, yize bebona umfana nentombazane beqhubeka kakhulu lapho zona.

Izincwadi zezindaba zomfana nentombazane ziveza okujulile kuzo kunezincwadi ezithandwayo ezenziwa kowesilisa nowesifazane. Vumela owesilisa noma owesifazane ofunde "Robinson Crusoe" noma "UmSwiss Family Robinson" afunde enye yalezo zincwadi. Abakwazi ukubuyela emuva kuleso sikhathi futhi bakhumbule ukuthi kwenzeka kanjani izigcawu, baphinde bazizwe nemizwa ababekade beyenza lapho. Ukufundwa kwamanje kuzoba buthuntu futhi kube yisibindi uma kuqhathaniswa nalokho abahlangabezana nakho njengamantombazane nentombazane. Bangase bazibuze ukuthi kungenzeka kanjani ukuthi babengajabulela izincwadi ezinjalo. Ukuphuka komkhumbi, ikhaya lesiqhingi!, Izimangaliso zesiqhingi! kepha manje — izigcawu ezimibalabala seziphelile, ubukhazikhazi asisekho. Futhi izindaba ezinganekwane-ziyangena. Kwakunamahora lapho umfana nentombazane befunda noma bezwa befunda ukulandisa okumnandi ngokwenzeka. I-adventure kaJack neBeanstalk, ukunqoba kukaJack, iGiant Killer, iyaphila kuJohn, ongase azenzele udumo njengoJack, abuye enze izimanga uJack azenzile. UMary uthokoziswa Ubuhle Bokulala esigodlweni esakhiwe, noma noCinderella. Naye uqobo kungenzeka yena uBeauty, ulindele ukufika kweNkosana; noma, njengoCinderella, ubuke ukuguqulwa kwamagundane abe ngamahhashi kanye nethanga libe ngumqeqeshi bese kuthwalwa kufakwe esigodlweni-lapho ukuyohlangana noMkhokheli-uma nje kungavela unkulunkulukazi omuhle futhi amenzele lezi zinto.

Owesilisa nowesifazane bakhohliwe, futhi ngeke bakhumbule ukuthakazelelwa kwalezi zindaba, inzalo ababenayo kubo, njengomfana nentombazane.

Umfana nentombazane babuye bahlangabezana nokuhlangenwe nakho okulimazayo-futhi iphi indoda noma owesifazane ongakuqonda noma abelane ngosizi lwengane! UJohn wayengabuyanga edlalweni. Ngemuva kokuthungathwa watholakala ehleli edwaleni, ikhanda ezandleni, umzimba wakhe uqhaqhazela. Futhi lapho ezinyaweni zakhe kubekwe izinsalela zenja yakhe, uScraggy. IScraggy yayike yashayiswa imoto yacishe yabulawa. UJohn wayesindise inja futhi wayinakekela futhi, futhi wayiqamba ngegama lokuthi uScraggy. Manje, iScraggy yayiphinde yashayiswa yimoto eyayidlula — okokugcina! UScraggy wayefile, futhi uJohn wayezithela ngabandayo. UScraggy futhi wayeqonde komunye nomunye, lokho kwakwanele kuJohn. Ayikho enye inja engathatha indawo yakhe noJohn. Kepha emva kweminyaka, lapho uJohane wayesekhulile waba ngowesilisa nowesifazane emhlabeni, usizi lukhohliwe, izindlela zihambile; I-Scraggy imemori nje kuphela.

UMariya uza egijima kunina, ekhala ngokungathi inhliziyo yakhe izophuka. Futhi phakathi kokukhala kwakhe uyakhala: “Hawu mama! Umama! UCarlo ukhiphe umlenze kaPeggy. Yini okufanele ngiyenze? Yini okufanele ngiyenze? ”Wayesethusile unodoli wakhe enjeni ngenkathi edlala, waqhamuka umlenze lapho uCarlo ewubamba. UMary uvele aqhume umunyu wemizwa futhi kunesinye izinyembezi sezinyembezi. Umhlaba umnyama! Ukukhanya kuhambile-ngokulahleka komlenze kaPeggy. Umama utshela uMariya ukuthi uzoba nodoli omuhle nonodoli abazothatha indawo kaPeggy. Kepha lesi sithembiso sinezela usizi lukaMariya kuphela. “Muhle futhi muhle kunoPeggy? Impela! U-Peggy akamubi. Akunodoli omnandi kangako, noma muhle kangako, njengoPeggy. ”Futhi uMary uvalelisa ingxenye esele yedoli. “Mpofu, Phelgy othandekayo!” UMary ngeke ahlukane noPeggy, manje njengoba esephelelwe ngumlenze. Umama okhungathekile ukhohliwe unodoli wakhe we-rag lowo kudala naye wayethandile.

Owesilisa nowesifazane akuvamile ukubona enganeni indoda noma umfazi esizayo, njengoba bebuka ingane lapho bexinekile, ngesikhathi sokudla noma esifundweni. Abakwazi noma abazami ukungena emhlabeni lapho ingane ihlala khona, ababehlala kuyo esikhathini esithile, futhi abaye baphuma bayikhohlwa ngokuphelele. Umhlaba owesilisa nowesifazane umhlaba ohlukile. Umhlaba womabili uyahlangana, ukuze abakhileyo bomhlaba womabili bakwazi ukuxhumana. Noma kunjalo, abakhileyo kulomhlaba bamane ukuqondana, abaqondi. Ngani? Ngoba ukuhlukaniswa kokukhohlwa kwehlukanisa umhlaba-nowentombazane-nomhlaba nowesilisa nowesifazane-emhlabeni.

Ingane ishiya ubuntwana lapho idlula kuleyo ukwahlukanisa bese kuba owesilisa noma owesifazane, kodwa ubudala bayo akuyona into enqumayo. Ukwahlukanisa kungaphasiswa ngesikhathi sokukhula kobudala, noma kungahle kube ngaphambi noma ngemuva; kungahle kungapheli kuze kube yilapho iskhathi sesiphelile, noma ngisho nangemva komshado — okuncike ekukhuleni komuntu, ekuziphatheni kwakhe, nasemandleni akhe engqondo. Kepha ubuntwana buyashiywa ngokuhamba ngengxenye, leyo ukwahlukanisa. Futhi izidalwa ezimbalwa zabantu zihlala ezweni lomfana nentombazane-zonke izinsuku zokuphila kwazo. Abanye bahlala isikhathi esingaphezu kosuku noma inyanga. Kepha lapho isigaba somfana nentombazane sesishiywe futhi isigaba sendoda nowesifazane sesivele isiqalile, ukuhlukaniswa kokukhohlwa kuvala ngemuva kwabo futhi kubavimbele unomphela ezweni lomfana nentombazane. Uma owesilisa noma owesimame ekhunjuzwa ngesimo esibonakalayo kulelozwe, noma umcimbi abekade ethinteka kuwo kakhulu, kumane nje kungukukhumbula okufana nomsindo-okuthi lapho ufiphela umzuzwana ufinyelele esikhathini esidlule samaphupho.

Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, kuzo zonke izimo ezijwayelekile, kwenzeka ushintsho olubucayi. Uma nje into eyaziyo ihlala yazi ukuthi akuwona umzimba lapho idlala khona ingxenye, izhlukanisa nomzimba nengxenye. Kepha njengoba iqhubeka nokuyidlala kancane iyakhohlwa umehluko nomehluko phakathi kwayo nengxenye edlalayo. Akusakhethi ukudlala izingxenye. Izicabanga njengengumzimba, iziveza njengegama lomzimba nangengxenye eyidlalayo. Ngemuva kwalokho iyayeka ukuba ngumlingisi, futhi iyazi ngomzimba negama nengxenye. Ngaleso sikhathi zingazicabangela ngaphandle komfana nentombazane-emhlabeni kanye nakumhlaba-owesilisa nowesifazane-emhlabeni.

Kwesinye isikhathi into eyaziyo iyazi ukuthi kukhona futhi okuthile okwaziyo kumfana namantombazane ngamunye ajwayelene naye, futhi kungahle kube nokwazi lokho endodeni noma kowesifazane. Lapho-ke leyo nto eyaziyo iyazi ukuthi ayikho neyodwa yalezi zinto ezithile eziqondayo kumfana nentombazane noma indoda nowesifazane abazazi yona as ubani nokuthi yini, nokuthi kwavelaphi. Kufunda ukuthi into eyaziyo kumfana noma intombazane ngayinye kusimo esifanayo esikuyo; okungukuthi, bayazi, kepha abakwazi ukuzichaza ukuthi ngubani owaziyo lowo, noma ukuthi wazi kanjani; ukuthi kunezikhathi lapho ngamunye kufanele enze-ukukholwa ukuthi kuyilokho akuyona, futhi kunezinye izikhathi lapho isidingo singaphoqeleli; futhi, ukuthi ngalezi zikhathi kuvunyelwe ukwenza-ukukholelwa lokho okuthandayo — khona-ke kubuye kube semhlabeni wokuzenzisa, njengoba kuholela.

Bese kuthi, ngokumbalwa, kube nezikhathi-futhi iningi lazo ziba zincane kakhulu noma ziyeke ngokuphelele ngokuhamba kweminyaka — lapho konke sekukhona, lapho isikhathi sima, akubonwa; lapho kungabonakali lutho; inkumbulo nemisindo yezindaba iyaphela; umhlaba awukho. Lapho-ke ukunaka kokuthile okuqondayo kuqondiswa ngaphakathi; iyodwa, iyazi. Nasi isimangaliso: Hawu! it IS uqobo lwayo, olungaphelelwa isikhathi, lweqiniso, lwaphakade! Ngaleso sikhashana — sekuhambile. Ukuphefumula kuyaqhubeka, inhliziyo ishaya, isikhathi siyaqhubeka, kufikelwa amafu, kuvela izinto, kuzwakale ukushesha kungena, futhi into eyaziyo iphinde yazi umzimba ngegama negama nobudlelwano bayo nezinye izinto, iphinde ilahleke emhlabeni yokuzikhohlisa. Umzuzu onqabile futhi ophakathi nendawo, onjenge-reminiscence engahlobene, ufike ungabikwa. Kungenzeka kanye kanye noma izikhathi eziningi empilweni. Kungenzeka kwenzeke ngaphambi nje kokulala ebusuku, noma ngenkathi uqaphela ukuvuka ekuseni, noma kungenzeka nganoma yisiphi isikhathi sosuku futhi noma ngabe iyiphi imisebenzi engaba khona.

Le nto eyaziyo ingaqhubeka nokuzazi ngaso sonke isikhathi sesikhathi samantombazane nentombazane, futhi ingaqhubeka ide yamukele izinkathazo noma injabulo yempilo “njengezinto ezingokoqobo” zayo. Ngempela, kwabanye abantu abambalwa ayinakuvuma futhi ayinakuzinikela umuzwa wokungazi izinzwa zomzimba ezixakile. Yinto efanayo eyaziyo futhi ehlukanisa okuthile ngayo yonke impilo yomzimba. Akukwazi okwanele ukuthi kwenze ukuthi ungubani ukuthi waziwe ukuze ikwazi ukuzihlukanisa emzimbeni negama. Kungaba nomuzwa wokuthi lokhu kungenziwa, kepha akufundi ukuthi kwenziwa kanjani. Kodwa-ke kulaba bantu abambalwa ngeke kuyeke noma kugcine ukuqaphela ukuthi akuwona umzimba. Into eyaziyo ayidingi kuphikisana noma igunya lokuyikholisa noma uyiqinisekise ngaleliqiniso. Lokho kusobala kakhulu ukuphikisana ngakho. Akuyona into eqhakazelayo noma yokuziqhenya, kepha maqondana naleli qiniso, iyigunya layo kuphela. Umzimba okukhona kuwo ushintsho, izinto ziyaguquka, imizwa nezifiso zalo ziyaguquka; kepha, ngokungafani nalokhu nakho konke okunye, kuyazi ukuthi yinto futhi ebilokhu ifana into eyodwa efanayo nayo ngokwayo engashintshanga futhi ingashintshi, nokuthi ayithinteki ngasikhathi ngandlela thile.

Kukhona ubunikazi bakho bokuzazi obuhlobene futhi obuhlukanisiwe kokuthile okwaziyo; kodwa leyo IDentity akuyona into eyaziyo, futhi ayikho emzimbeni, yize ixhumene nokuthile okwenzeka emzimbeni okungene emzimbeni okunegama, futhi okuye kwaqapheleka emzimbeni owawufikile, nokwazi wezwe. Into eyaziyo ingena emzimbeni eminyakeni embalwa emva kokuzalwa komzimba futhi iwushiye ekufeni kwalowo mzimba. Yikho lokho okwenza izinto emhlabeni, uMenzi emzimbeni. Futhi emva kwesikhashana kuzongena omunye umzimba onegama, futhi eminye imizimba enamanye amagama, ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Kepha ubuwena bokuzazi lapho bethintana nokuthile ukwazi okuthile kokukhona kwaso, enganeni ngayinye kuwukubazi kobuntu uqobo lapho into eyazi ngeke ikusize ukuqaphela of uqobo, futhi, yazi eminyakeni yokuqala yalowo mzimba ukuthi unjalo hhayi umzimba onegama. Into eyaziyo emzimbeni ayazi ngubani ngu noma ini Ikona; ayazi umazisi noma ngobuhlobo bayo nobomazisi abazazi. Kuyazi as into eyaziyo ngenxa yokuhlobana kwayo neConder-Knower ye-Triune Self yayo, uZiqu-zintathu ngamunye.

Umazisi ozazi awuzalwa futhi awufi lapho into yakhe eyazi ingena emzimbeni noma ishiya umzimba; ayiguquki ebukhoneni bayo 'bodwa obuwaziyo,' futhi ayiphazamiseki ngokufa. Ngokwayo kunokuzola, ihloka, ubunikazi obungapheliyo — okukhona khona okwaziyo okuthile emzimbeni okwaziyo. Into eyaziyo-ke ukuthi, ukuphela kweqiniso noma iqiniso umuntu azibonayo. Kepha kubantu bonke into eyaziyo iyifihliwe futhi igcwele izinzwa, futhi ikhonjwa ngomzimba nangomzimba.

Ukuze owesilisa noma owesifazane aqaphele futhi as lokho ayekwazi lapho umfana omncane noma intombazane, inkumbulo yenqondo ayanele. Mane ukusho ukuthi bayakhumbula ngeke bakwenze. Imemori, njengephupho elidangele nelingaqondakali, ingeyesikhathi esedlule. Into eyaziyo empeleni eyamanje, yokungaphelelwa isikhathi Manje. Izifiso nemizwa yendoda neyowesifazane azazi njengoba zazikumfana nentombazane, futhi ukucabanga kuhlukile. Ngakho-ke, ukuze owesilisa nowesifazane baqonde ukuthi kungani umfana nentombazane besebenza ngale ndlela, owesilisa lowo kuzofanela aqaphele futhi aqaphele njengoba umfana, futhi owesifazana kuyomelwe abuyele futhi aqaphele njengoba ntombazane. Lokhu abakwazi ukukwenza. Ngeke, ngoba ukwazi okuthile okwake kwazi ngaleso sikhathi ukuthi kwakungewona umzimba noma ingxenye eyidlalayo, akwenzi mehluko manje. Lokhu kwehluka kubangelwa kakhulu ukuthi izitho zobulili ezazingafundile zomfana ezazingase zibe nomthelela, kodwa azikwazanga ukuphoqelela, ukucabanga kokuthile okwaziyo kulowomfana. Manje into efanayo efanayo eyaziyo endodeni iphoqelelwa ukuba icabange ngokuya ngezifiso zendoda, ngoba ukucabanga kwayo nokwenza kwayo kuyaphakanyiswa futhi kube nombala futhi kuphoqelelwa izitho nemisebenzi yendoda. Kunjalo nangowesifazane. Izitho zentombazane ezazingakakhiwa ngaleso sikhathi zaba nomthelela, kepha azange ziphoqe, ukucabanga kwento eyaziyo. Manje, yona kanye into eyaziyo kowesifazane iyaphoqelelwa ukuba icabange ngokwemizwa yowesifazane ngoba ukucabanga nokwenza kwakhe kunemibala futhi kuchazwe yizitho nemisebenzi yowesifazane. La maqiniso njengembangela, enza kucishe kungenzeki ukuthi owesilisa noma owesifazane afise futhi azizwe futhi aqonde ukuthi umfana nentombazane bacabanga kanjani, nokuthi kungani benza njengoba benza emhlabeni wabo.

Abafana namantombazane banobandlululo oluncane kunabesilisa nabesifazane. Wena, njengomfana noma intombazane, wawunobandlululo oluncane noma olungenalo nhlobo. Isizathu ukuthi ngaleso sikhathi wawungakakhethi izinkolelo zakho uqobo, futhi wawungenaso isikhathi sokwamukela izinkolelo zabazali bakho noma zabantu ohlangane nabo. Ngokwemvelo, wawunokuthandwa nokungathandeki futhi lokhu wakushintsha ngezikhathi ezithile njengoba ulalele ukuthandwa nokungathandwa okukhonjiswa ngabalingani bakho nabantu abadala, kodwa ikakhulukazi uyihlo nonyoko. Ufisa kakhulu ukuthi izinto zichazwe, ngoba ubufuna ukuqonda. Ukulungele ukushintsha noma iyiphi inkolelo uma ungathola noma ngubani ukuthi akunikeze isizathu noma ukukuqinisekisa ukuthi abakushoyo kuyiqiniso. Kepha kungenzeka ukuthi ufundile, njengoba izingane zivame ukufunda, ukuthi labo ocele ukukuchaza abafuni ukukuhlupha ukukuchaza, noma ukuthi bacabanga ukuthi ngeke bakuqonde, noma ukuthi bayehluleka ukukutshela ukuthi yini ofuna ukuyazi. Wakhululeka ebandlululweni ngaleso sikhathi. Namuhla kungenzeka ukuthi uphethe inqwaba yokubandlulula, yize kungenzeka ukuthi uthuke uvume iqiniso kuze kube yilapho uqala ukucabanga ngakho. Uma ucabanga ngakho uzothola ukuthi unobandlululo emndenini, kubuzwe, kwezepolitiki, kwezenhlalo nakwezinye izinto eziphathelene nemisebenzi yabantu. Lokhu uzitholile kusukela ngesikhathi ubengumfana noma intombazane. Ubandlululo luphakathi kokuhlukaniswa nokuhlonishwa kakhulu kwezimpawu zobuntu.

Kukhona ukuhlangana njalo kwabafana namantombazane nabesilisa nabesifazane. Kodwa-ke, wonke umehluko umehluko, isithiyo esingabonakali somhlaba-sabantu-nabesifazane emhlabeni-webafana-namantombazane. Futhi lowo mgoqo uhlala kuze kube yilapho kukhona ushintsho kumfana nakwintombazane. Ushintsho olusuka kumfana nentombazane lube ngowesilisa nowesifazane kwesinye isikhathi luyenzeka kancane kancane, kancane kancane. Futhi kwesinye isikhathi ushintsho luvele kungazelelwe. Kepha lolu shintsho luqinisekile ukuthi luzoza kuwo wonke umuntu ongumuntu ongahlali ingane impilo yonke yonke. Umfana nentombazane bayalwazi ushintsho uma lufika, yize abanye belukhohlwa ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Ngaphambi koshintsho, umfana kungenzeka ukuthi wathi: Ngifuna ukuba yindoda, nentombazane: ngifisa ukuthi bengingowesifazane. Ngemuva koshintsho, umfana uthi: Ngingowesilisa, nentombazane: manje sengingowesifazane. Futhi abazali nabanye bazobona futhi mhlawumbe baphawule ngoshintsho. Yini edale noma yaletha lolu shintsho, lesi simo esibucayi, lokhu kweqa kwesithiyo, okuyi-ukwahlukanisa-kokukhohlwa, ukuhlukanisa izwe lomfana nentombazane-emhlabeni nomuntu-nowesifazane-emhlabeni? Ngabe ukwahlukaniswa kwenziwa kanjani noma kwalungiswa, futhi kwenziwa kanjani?

Ukucabanga kuklama ukwahlukanisa, ukucabanga kuyakulungiselela, futhi ukucabanga kumisa indawo yayo. Ushintsho olusuka kumfana nentombazane lube ngowesilisa nowesifazane kufanele luphindwe kabili: ushintsho ekukhuleni kobulili babo, kanye noshintsho olufanayo ekukhuleni kwabo ngokomqondo, ngokucabanga. Ukukhula ngokomzimba nokukhula ngokocansi kuzothatha umfana nentombazane ezweni lendoda nowesifazane, futhi lapho bazoba owesilisa nowesifazane kuze kube yilapho ubulili babo buthintekile. Kepha uma bengakwazi ukucabanga kwabo ukwenza inqubekela phambili ekukhuleni kwengqondo, ngeke bawele umgoqo. Bayobe besekhona emhlabeni womfana nentombazane-emhlabeni. Ukukhula ngokocansi ngokomzimba ngaphandle kokukhula ngokomqondo kubenza bangabi yindoda nowesifazane. Ngakho-ke bahlala: owesilisa nowesifazane ngokocansi, kepha umfana nentombazane ngokwengqondo, emhlabeni-nakentombazane-emhlabeni. Kubonakala njengendoda nowesifazane. Kepha abanacala. Angamaqiniso ngeshwa kuwo womhlaba womabili. Sebephumile futhi bakhula ngale kwesimo sengane futhi abasenazo izingane. Kepha abanantobelo yengqondo, abanangqondo noma baqonda okulungile nokuqina, futhi ngenxa yalokho abanakuthembelwa endodeni nasowesifazane.

Ukuwela ukwahlukanisa-kokukhohlwa kusuka kumfana nentombazane, nokungena emhlabeni-owesilisa nowesifazane, ukucabanga kumele kuhambisane nokuhambelana nentuthuko yezocansi. Ukuhlukaniswa kwenziwa futhi kulungiswa izinqubo ezimbili zokucabanga. Into eyaziyo emzimbeni yenza ukucabanga. Enye yalezi zinqubo ezimbili yenziwa yilokho okwaziyo ukubona ngokuqhubekayo noma ukuzibandakanya ekuthuthukiseni ezocansi noma umsebenzi wobulili womzimba wesilisa noma womzimba womfazi okukhona kuwo. Lokhu kuhlonza kuqinisekiswa yinto ethile njengoba iqhubeka nokuzicabanga njengawo lowo mzimba kanye nalowo msebenzi. Enye inqubo yokucabanga ukwamukelwa ngento eyaziwayo yalokho okubizwa ngokuthi amaqiniso abandayo futhi anzima empilweni, nangokuzazisa njengobuntu bomzimba okuncike kukho ekudleni nakwimpahla nakwigama nendawo endaweni umhlaba, namandla okuba, ukuthanda, ukwenza, nokuba nakho konke lokhu; noma, ukuba futhi babe nezinto ezinjalo ngokuthanda kwabo.

Lapho, ngokucabanga, okwaziyo kumfana noma entombini kuye kwaziveza nomzimba wobulili okukuwo, futhi kuzenza zincike egameni nendawo namandla emhlabeni, lapho-ke kuza isimo esibucayi, mzuzu kanye umcimbi. Lokhu kucabanga kwesithathu, futhi kungena ophansi nasendlini enkulu. Kulapho into eyaziyo ithatha isinqumo sokuthi siyini isikhundla sayo emhlabeni, nokuthi leso sikhundla sihlobene kanjani namanye amadoda nabesifazane. Lokhu kucabanga kwesithathu nokunqumayo kuyisici noma isivumelwano sokuzimela sento eyaziyo ngomzimba okuyo, kanye nokuhlobene kwalelo mzimba neminye imizimba yabantu nomhlaba. Lokhu kucabanga kudala futhi kudale isimo esithile sengqondo sokuzibophezela ngokuziphatha. Lokhu kucabanga kwesithathu kuqinisa ukubonakala kobulili nangokomzimba nezimo zokuphila. Lokhu kucabanga noma isimo sengqondo somqondo siyachaza, kufakwa nokulungiswa. Umfana noma intombazane ebeyikhona, isiphume kumfana nentombazane-emhlabeni, futhi manje usengumuntu owesilisa noma umfazi emhlabeni womuntu-nowesifazane.

Umfana nentombazane-umhlaba uyanyamalala njengoba bezazi ngokwengeziwe bona nemisebenzi yabo njengendoda nowesifazane. Izwe liyizwe elidala elifanayo; akukashintshi; kepha ngoba sebeshintshile besuka kumfana nentombazane baba ngowesilisa nowesifazane futhi ngenxa yokuthi babona umhlaba ngamehlo abo njengowesilisa nowesifazane, umhlaba ubonakala uhlukile. Babona izinto manje ababengenakuzibona lapho besengumfana nentombazane. Futhi zonke izinto ababezazi ngaleso sikhathi, manje bazi ngenye indlela. Le nsizwa nowesifazane abenzi ukuqhathanisa noma ukuzibuza ngokwazi umehluko. Bayazi izinto njengoba izinto zibonakala zinjalo, nokuthi bazemukela njengamaqiniso, futhi yilowo nalowo uphatha amaqiniso ngokuya kwakheka kwakhe. Impilo kubukeka sengathi ibavulekela, ngokwezikhundla zabo nangesixakaxaka sezenhlalo abakulo, futhi kubukeka sengathi kuzoqhubeka ukuvula njengoba beqhubeka.

Manje kwenzekani kule nsizwa nowesifazane ukubenza babone umhlaba nezinto ezikuwo zihluke kakhulu? Nokho, lapho bedlula ekuhlukaniselweni-kokukhohlwa bavele bazi umugqa wokwahlulela, ohlukanisa indoda eceleni kohlangothi lowesifazane nowesilisa nowesifazane. Le nsizwa nowesifazane osemusha akazange athi: Ngizothatha lolu hlangothi, noma, ngizoluthatha uhlangothi, lomugqa. Abashongo lutho ngalolu daba. Le nsizwa yazibona injalo futhi yayizibona njengendoda ngasohlangothini lwendoda, le ntokazi yazibona injalo futhi yazibona njengowesifazane ohlangothini lowesifazane ohlukanisa owesilisa nowesifazane. Le yindlela yempilo nokukhula. Kunjengokungathi impilo yayiyisigaba somgwaqo oyindilinga-ogeleza lapho kufakwa khona izingane zamantombazane nezamantombazane. Bahleke bakhale futhi bakhule futhi badlale, ngenkathi umgwaqo ubashukumisela esikhathini somfana nentombazane-emhlabeni kuze kube emugqeni wokwahlulela ohamba kulo lonke umfana nentombazane- kanye nendoda- ne- abesifazane-omhlaba. Kepha umfana nentombazane abawuboni umugqa kuze kube yilapho bedlula phakathi kokukhohlwa. Umfana ulokhu esendleleni, kodwa ohlangothini lomuntu olayini. Intombazane ibuye iqhubeke nomgwaqo, nangasohlangothini lwabesifazane emgqeni wokuhlukanisa. Ngakho-ke ohlangothini ngalunye lomugqa bahamba njengowesilisa nanjengowesifazane ezweni lomuntu-nowesifazane. Abesilisa nabesifazane babukana bodwa futhi bahlangana lapho kuhlangana khona umgwaqo obonakalayo wesiyingi-wesikhathi esijikelezayo obizwa ngokuthi yimpilo kuze kube sekupheleni, indoda ihlale ilwazi ngasohlangothini lwayo nowesifazane ohlangothini lwayo. Ngemuva kwalokho ukufa kungukuphela kwengxenye ebonakalayo yempilo yomgwaqo. Umzimba obonakalayo oshiywe engxenyeni ebonakalayo yomgwaqo. Kepha umgwaqo oyindilinga-ohamba ngokuhamba kwesikhathi uthwala okuthile okwaziyo ngefomu lawo elingabonakali ngokusebenzisa imibuso eminingi yangemva kokushona kanye nezikhathi bese ushiya yonke imizimba engabonakali kanye namafomu ezingxenyeni ezithile zawo zomgwaqo. Umgwaqo ojikelezayo wesikhathi esijikelezayo uyaqhubeka. Futhi kuletha engxenyeni yayo ebonakalayo ebizwa ngokuphila, enye ingane yomfana noma yentombazane yentombazane. Futhi, futhi, yona leyo nto iqondile ingena kulowomfana noma intombazane ukuba iqhubeke nenhloso yayo ngokusebenzisa isigaba esibonakalayo somgwaqo.

Vele, abafana namantombazane bayazi, ngokwengeziwe noma ngaphansi, ukuthi kunomehluko phakathi komfana nentombazane; kepha abazihlukumezi amakhanda abo ngokweqile mayelana nomehluko. Kepha lapho imizimba yabo iba ngamadoda nabesifazane amakhanda abo abahlupha ngomehluko. Abesilisa nabesifazane ngeke bawukhohlwe umehluko. Imizimba yabo ngeke ibayeke bakhohlwe.

Umhlaba uyashesha noma izwe lihamba kancane. Kepha noma kushesha noma kuhamba kancane — kuyindlela indoda nowesifazane abahamba ngayo. Ngokuphindaphindiwe ngaphezu komlando wesikhathi impucuko ikhuphukile; njalo iwile futhi inyamalala. Yini inhloso! Yini inzuzo! Kumele kukhuphuke futhi kuwa kwezimpucuko ngemuva kwempucuko kuqhubeke ngekusasa elingapheli! Izinkolo zayo, izimilo zokuziphatha, ezepolitiki, imithetho, izincwadi, ubuciko kanye nesayensi; ukwenziwa kwawo, ezentengiselwano kanye nezinye izinto ezibalulekile kwimpucuko, kuye kwasuselwa futhi kuncike kowesilisa nowesifazane.

Futhi manje enye impucuko-okucatshangelwa ukuthi yiyona enkulu kunayo yonke impucuko-iyakhula, futhi inyuselwa endaweni ephakeme ngokwengeziwe — yindoda nowesifazane. Futhi kumele futhi, iwele? Isiphetho saso sincike kowesilisa nowesifazane. Akudingi ukwehluleka futhi ukuwa. Uma siguqulwa esimweni saso futhi sakhelwe ukuhlala unomphela, ngeke sehluleke, ngeke siwe!

I-United States of America kuzoba inkundla yokulwa yale mpucuko, lapho ikusasa lezizwe lizosetshenziselwa khona. Kepha owesilisa nowesifazane bangakha impucuko ngokwalokho abakwaziyo ngathi. Indoda nowesifazane bayazi ukuthi bazalwa nokuthi bazokufa. Lesi ngesinye sezimbangela zokwehluleka kanye nokuwa kwempucuko edlule. Ukuthi kuzo kubenza indoda nowesifazane bangafi. Ihlala ngale kwethuna. Kuvela futhi, futhi kuphinde kuqhubeke. Futhi kaningi lapho kuhamba, buyabuya.

Ukwakhela owesilisa nowesifazane unomphela kufanele baqonde futhi baqonde futhi bajwayelane nokuphila okungafi okukuyo okungekho, okungakwazi, ukufa lapho ukubonakala kwayo njengowesilisa nowesifazane sekuphele inkambo yabo futhi kukhona ukuphela kwezinsuku. Leyo nto eyaziyo, ukuthi into engenakufa, ngezikhathi ezithile iphupha ngokwayo ibukeke njengendoda noma njengowesifazane. Ephusheni lakhona lifuna iqiniso elilahlekile — elinye uhlangothi lwalo. Futhi ngokungayitholi ngokubukeka kwayo, iyifuna ngokubukeka okunye — umzimba wendoda noma umzimba sowesifazane. Uyedwa, futhi ngaphandle kwalelo iqiniso elilahlekile eliphupha ngalo, lizizwa lingaphelele. Futhi inethemba lokuthi izothola futhi ijabule futhi iphelele ekubonakaleni kwendoda noma kowesifazane.

Kuyaqabukela noma kungakaze kwenzeke ukuthi owesilisa nowesifazane bahlale ndawonye ngenjabulo. Kepha kuyaqabukela, uma kwenzeka, indoda nowesifazane baphila bodwa ngokujabulisayo. Okuyindida: Indoda nowesifazane abajabule ngomunye, futhi abajabule ngaphandle komunye nomunye. Ngokuhlangenwe nakho kwezimpilo ezingenakubalwa zokuphupha, owesilisa nowesifazane abasongelanga ikhambi lezinkinga zabo ezimbili: Ungajabula kanjani omunye nomunye; futhi, kanjani ukujabula ngaphandle komunye nomunye.

Ngenxa yokungajabuli nokungabi nalutho kowesilisa nowesifazane abanabo noma ngaphandle komunye nomunye, abantu bawo wonke umhlaba bayaqhubeka benethemba nokwesaba, ukungabaza nokungavikeleki, ngokubukeka nje kwenjabulo, ukuhlakanipha nokuqiniseka. Esidlangalaleni nasekusithekeni, kukhona ukuhlela nokuhlela; kukhona okusebenzayo lapha nokugijimela lapho, ukuthola nokuthola futhi awusoze weneliswa. Ukuhaha kufihlwe imfihlo yokuphana; iziphikisi ezingekho emthethweni eceleni komphakathi; inkohliso, inzondo, ukungathembeki, ukwesaba, namanga yembeswa amagama afanele ukuheha nokugebha okhaliphileyo nokuqamba; futhi ihlelele ubugebengu obuhleliwe ngokudabukisayo futhi ibambe izitha zayo ngokukhanya kwemini kosuku ngenkathi umthetho usala ngemuva.

Indoda nowesifazane bakhela ukudla, noma impahla, noma igama, noma amandla, ukwanelisa owesilisa nowesifazane. Abasoze baneliswa, njengendoda nowesifazane nje. Ubandlululo, umhawu, ubuqili, umhawu, inkanuko, intukuthelo, inzondo, ububi, kanye nembewu yalokhu manje isabekwa futhi yakhelwe ukwakheka kwale mpucuko ekhuphukayo. Uma lungasuswanga noma lushintshiwe, imicabango yalokhu izokuqhakaza futhi ikhiphe ngaphandle njengempi nezifo, futhi ukufa kuzoba ukuphela kwendoda nowesifazane nentuthuko yabo; futhi umhlaba namanzi mayelana nawo wonke amazwe kuyoshiya kancane noma kungabikho mkhondo wokuba khona kwawo. Uma le mpucuko izodlulela phambili futhi ibhulohise lokho kwehla kwempucuko nokuwa kwezimpucuko, owesilisa nowesifazane kufanele babone ubunjalo bemizimba yabo nasendalweni yabo; kumele bafunde ukuthi yini leyo engenakufa kubo; kumele baqonde ukuthi akunabo ubulili; kumele baqonde ukuthi kungani kwenza owesilisa nowesifazane abe ngowesifazane; futhi, kungani futhi kanjani lowo ophuphayo esebonakala ngokuvela endodeni noma kowesifazane.

Imvelo inkulu, iyimfihlakalo ngaphezu kwamaphupho owesilisa noma owesifazane. Futhi lapho kwaziwa kabanzi, kulapho kukhonjiswa khona okuncane okwaziwayo, ngokuqhathaniswa nokwaziwa ngobukhulu nezimfihlakalo zemvelo. Ukudumisa ngaphandle kwesiqu kungenxa yabesilisa nabesifazane abaye banezela esikhwameni kulowo mgcinimafa wolwazi obizwa ngokuthi yisayensi. Kepha ubunzima bemvelo nobunzima bemvelo buzokhuphuka ngokuqhubeka kokutholwa nokusungulwa. Ibanga, isilinganiso, isisindo, usayizi, akumele kuthenjwe njengemithetho yokuqonda imvelo. Kukhona inhloso kuyo yonke imvelo, futhi yonke imisebenzi yemvelo yenzelwe ukwenziwa lokho. Owesilisa nowesifazane bazi okuthile ngotshintsho oluthile emvelweni, kodwa abazi ngokuqhubeka kwenhloso kanye nokuhlala njalo ngemvelo, ngoba abazi ukuqhubeka nokuhlala kwabo uqobo.

Inkumbulo yomuntu yilezi zinzwa ezine: ukubona, ukuzwa, ukunambitha nokuhogela. I-Memory of the Self is of The Phakade: ukuqhubeka okungaphazanyiswa izinguquko zesikhathi, ukuqala kokunye nokungapheli; okungukuthi, i-Oda yaphakade Yokuqhubeka.

Owesilisa nowesifazane balahlekelwa ulwazi ababekade benalo ngabo nangokuthi imvelo ihlala njalo, futhi kusukela lapho, bebelokhu bezulazula ngokungazi nasenkingeni kulo lonke elebhu kanye noshintsho lwalomhlaba nowesilisa nowesifazane. Owesilisa nowesifazane bangaqhubeka nokuzulazula kwabo uma bekhetha, kodwa futhi bangakwazi, futhi ngesinye isikhathi, bayoqala ukuthola indlela yokuphuma kulabhorethri bokufa nokubeletha futhi bajwayelane nolwazi oluzoba olwabo — futhi olulindelwe . Owesilisa noma owesifazane ozoba nalolo lwazi angacubungula ngokucophelela ukukhonjwa kwemvelo nemvelaphi nomlando wabo, nangendlela abaduka ngayo futhi baba semizimbeni yendoda nowesifazane abakhona namuhla.

Kuzoba lapha ukubheka kafushane indawo yomuntu ohlelweni oluhlanganisa konke lwezinto, izidalwa kanye nobuhlakani, ngaphakathi kwe-One Reality: Ukuqwashisa Ngokuphelele; okungukuthi, ubudlelwane beDoer, ngakolunye uhlangothi, emvelweni futhi, ngakolunye uhlangothi, ku-Triune Self ongafiyo eyingxenye yakhe. Kodwa-ke, njengoba bobabili imvelo nomuntu eyinkimbinkimbi kuyinkimbinkimbi ngokweqile, akunakwenzeka noma kungadingeki ngezinhloso zamanje ukwedlula kafushane ukuhlukaniswa kwabo okuningi nezingxenye.

Kukhona "izinto" eziyisisekelo eziyisisekelo, zokuqala, ezavela kuzo zonke izinto nezidalwa. Ngenxa yokuntuleka kwamagama acacisiwe, kukhulunywa ngawo lapha njengezinto zomlilo, umoya, amanzi nomhlaba. Lawa magama awasho ukuthi lokho kuvame ukuqondwa yibo.

Izakhi zakhiwa amayunithi amaningi. Iyunithi yi-ANivivithi engenakuqhathaniswa, engabonakali, engafinyeleleki. Amayunithi awazihlakaniphi ohlangothini lwemvelo, noma ahlakaniphile ohlangothini oluhle lwe-cosmos enkulu.

Imvelo, ohlangothini lwemvelo, ingumshini owakhiwa ingqikithi yamayunithi emvelo, aqaphelekayo as ukusebenza kwabo kuphela.

Kunezinhlobo ezine zamayunithi emvelo: amayunithi wamahhala, amayunithi esikhashana, amayunithi womqambi, nezindawo zomqondo. Amayunithi wamahhala angadlula noma kuphi ngemvelo, ekusakazweni kwamayunithi agelezayo, kepha awabanjwanga izinto adlula kuzo. Amayunithi esikhashana ahlangana namanye amayunithi futhi aphethwe okwesikhashana; zenziwa ukuba zingene, futhi ngaleyo ndlela zakhele ekubonakaleni nasekubonakaleni, ukwakheka kwangaphakathi nokubukeka kwangaphandle kwamaminerali, isitshalo, izilwane kanye nemizimba yabantu, lapho zihlala isikhashana, zithathelwe indawo abanye; abese egeleza futhi emiseleni yamayunithi abalesikhashana. Okunye kokubonakaliswa kwamaayunithi wesikhashana amandla endalo, njengamandla adonsela phansi, ugesi, amandla kazibuthe, nombani. Amayunithi womqambi enza amayunithi esikhashana ngokusho kwamafomu angenakubonwa; bakha imizimba yamaseli, izitho zomzimba kanye nezinhlelo ezine emzimbeni womuntu — amasistimu wokuzala, wokuphefumula, wokujikeleza nokugaya ukudla. Uhlobo lwesine lwemayunithi emvelo, amayunithi womqondo, yizinzwa zokubuka, ukuzwa, ukunambitha nokuhogela, ezilawula izinqubo ezine futhi zihlobanise izinto zemvelo kuzo.

Ngaphezu kwalezi zinhlobo ezine zemvelo kukhona, kumuntu futhi kulapho kuphela, okuyindawo yokuphefumula — igama elichazayo ngalokho okukhulunywa ngokuthi “umphefumulo ophilayo.” Ngokuvamile ingxenye eyingxenye yefomu lokuphefumula kubhekiswa lapho kubhekwa khona “umphefumulo” futhi, engqondweni, “the subconscious” noma “unconscious” kubhekwa; ingxenye yokuphefumula yefomu lokuphefumula ingumoya ongena emzimbeni wosana nge-petroli yokuqala. Asikho isilwane esinefomu lokuphefumula.

Kukhona neyodwa kuphela into eyakha umoya emzimbeni womuntu ngamunye. Ihlala nalowomzimba ngesikhathi sokuphila, futhi ekufeni kuhambisana noMenzi weTestune Self emazweni asemuva kokufa; ngokuhamba kwesikhathi ijoyina futhi uMenzi njengoba lowo Doer elungiselela enye impilo emhlabeni. Iyunithi lokuphefumula lixhumanisa izinzwa ezine nezinhlelo ezine futhi liyagcina lisebenza ngokuhlobene nawo wonke amayunithi omzimba. Indlela yokuphefumula ihlala engxenyeni yangaphambili noma engaphandle yomzimba wesimo sobuchopho ebuchosheni. Ukusuka lapho ilawula futhi ixhumanise yonke imisebenzi yomzimba ngokungakhethi, futhi engxenyeni engasemuva ihlangana ngqo nento eyaziyo emzimbeni, uMenzi weTestune Self.

Futhi-ke kukhona iyunithi elihlobanisa uhlangothi oluhlakaniphile nohlangothi lwesimo kumuntu, olubizwa ngokuthi yi-aia. Ngesikhathi sokuphila i-aia isebenza njengommeli phakathi kwefomu lokuphefumula ne-Doer emzimbeni; kuzimo zokufa-emva kokufa zenza imisebenzi ethile futhi, lapho kufika isikhathi sokuba i-Doer iphinde ibe khona, i-aia inika amandla ifomu lokuphefumula ukudala ukubamba futhi, kamuva, ukuzalwa komzimba.

Isidalwa sabantu sisonke sisohlangothini lomkhathi onobuhlakani, ngamandla okuthi kuhlalwe kuwo yiDoo ingxenye yomuntu ongafiyo, ubathathu emunye, lapha obizwa ngokuthi yi-Triune Self. Kuwo wonke owesilisa noma owesifazane kunengxenye ezithunjiweyo yomuntu ozaziyo nongafiyo kaThathu. Le Triune Self, lo muntu — hhayi indawo yonke — uthixo-zintathu unakho, njengoba igama lisho, izingxenye ezintathu: uMazi noma ubunikazi nolwazi, ingxenye yemibono; umcabango noma ukulunga nesizathu, ingxenye yomqondo; kanye noMenzi noma umuzwa nesifiso, ingxenye yemilingo. Kuwo wonke owesilisa nowesifazane kunengxenye yeDoer ingxenye yeTestune Self. I-Doer iphinda ibe khona emzimbeni owodwa womuntu ngemuva komunye, futhi ngaleyo ndlela iphila kusuka empilweni iye empilweni, ihlukaniswe izinkathi ezifundazweni eziningi ngemuva kokufa. Lokhu kuhluka phakathi kokuphila emhlabeni nokuphila emazweni asele kufile kuyaboniswa yizimo zokuvuka nokulala. Zonke izifunda zoMenzi okhona futhi owaziyo. Umehluko umehluko ukuthi uma sekushonile uMenzi akabuyeli emzimbeni esesifile, kodwa kumele alinde kuze kube yilapho umzimba omusha usulungisiwe ngabazali besikhathi esizayo futhi uzilungiselele ukwamukela uMenzi.

Kukhona lowo mlando ongafinyeleleki futhi ukhohliwe wawo wonke umuntu ongumuntu owadala uMenzi kuyo yonke indoda nowesifazane ukuba babe ingxenye yokudingiswa yokuzazi kwabo nokungafi kuka-Triune Self. Kudala, kudala, u-Knower, uConder kanye noDerer babehlukanisiwe, bengafi, futhi bengafi, ku-Realm of Permanence, okwakuvame ukubizwa ngayo ngokuthi yiPharadesi, noma iGadi yase-Edeni, “u-Adamu” ongenacala, ocansini ophelele, ingaphakathi lomhlaba — okuwumzimba ophelele, ovame ukubizwa ngokuthi “ithempeli lokuqala, elenziwe ngezandla zabantu.”

Kafushane, lokhu kuzidingisa ku-The Realm of Permanence kwenzeka ngokwehluleka kwabo bonke labo Doers kamuva ababa abantu, ukuphumelela uvivinyo oluthile, okwakudingeka ukuthi bonke Abenzi baphumelele, ukuze baqedele i-Triune Selves ngayinye. . Lokhu kwehluleka kwakha lokho okubizwa ngokuthi, “isono sokuqala,” ngokuthi “u-Adamu,” noma kunalokho u-Adamu no-Eva emizimbeni yabo engamawele, babhekana ‘nokuwa komuntu. Ngokwehluleka kwabo ukuphumelela lolo vivinyo, baxoshwa “ePharadesi” enkabeni yezwe bayiswa engxenyeni engaphandle yomhlaba.

Izixuku zabaSebenzi "abona" ngale ndlela, zihlala njengamadoda nabesifazane emizimbeni yabo, ngokuya ngesidingo sokudla, kanye nokuzalwa nokufa, nokufa nokufa. Amayunithi alinganayo emizimba yabo yangaphambilini eyathandana nobulili ayengasasebenzi, futhi ayilokho manje, abesilisa nabesifazane nabesifazane, futhi abenzi bayo kwakungamadoda nabesifazane — noma isifiso sokuzizwa nesifiso sokuzizwa, njengoba kuzochazwa ngokuqhubekayo .

Ukuqhubeka kafushane ngokuhlobene komuntu ne-Universal nemvelo. I-Universe enezinto zayo ezine zangaphambi kwamakhemikhali, umlilo, umoya, amanzi nomhlaba, ingeyunithi yemvelo namaunithi ahlakaniphile. Izinhlobo ezine zemayunithi emvelo — ezikhululekile, ezesikhashana, zomqambi, nezengqondo — ziyizinto zokwakheka kwazo zonke izinto, izinto nemizimba emshinini omkhulu wemvelo. Onke amayunithi emvelo ahamba ngokungapheli, futhi onke ahlanganyela ekuhambeni kancane, okuhamba kancane, kodwa okuthuthukayo, inani elihlala lingaguquki futhi lingaguquki. Amayunithi emvelo ayazi as imisebenzi yabo kuphela, kepha amayunithi ohlangothini oqondayo ayazi of or as ukuthi banjani.

Kunemikhawulo ekuqhubekeni kwamayunithi emvelo, amayunithi wemvelo athuthuke kakhulu abe izinzwa zokubona, ukuzwa, ukunambitha nokuhogela. I-degree elandelayo yileyunithi yefomu lokuphefumula, elihambisana noMenzi ngokuphila nokufa, futhi empilweni, liyindlela eqondile yokuxhumana phakathi koMenzi nemvelo. Inasohlangothini olusebenzayo nolungenelayo, uhlangothi olusebenzayo lungukuphefumula, futhi uhlangothi oluzwelayo lungohlobo lomzimba oluyimfihlo. Ngokukhala kokuqala kokubeletha kuze kube sekufeni komoya lapho efa, umoya, owuphindwe kane, uzungeza futhi ugeleza ungene kuwo wonke amalungu omzimba.

Ukuphelela — umgomo oyimfihlo futhi ongaziwa wokulwelwa komuntu — kusho ukuthi manje izingxenye zomzimba womuntu ezingenakulinganiswa zizobe sezilinganiselwe; okungukuthi, ngeke besaba owesilisa noma owesifazane, kodwa bazokwakhiwa ngamaseli angenacala, alinganiselayo, amaseli. Lapho-ke uMenzi uzophinda abe semzimbeni wakhe ophelele; ngeke ibe ngaphansi kwezifo nokufa, futhi ngeke idinge ukudla okuphelele, kepha izondle futhi inakekelwe ngokuphefumula kwempilo yaphakade, engaphazanyiswa yizikhathi zokulala noma zokufa. Lowo Doer uyobe esehambisana ne-Thinker-Knower yakhe, emzimbeni ophelele wobusha baphakade — ithempeli lesibili — ku-Realm of Permanence, The Phakade.

Ngokubuka umlando waso owakhohliwe, uMenzi ongafiyo emzimbeni wawo wonke amadoda nowesifazane angaqonda ukuthi udingiswa kanjani kusukela ku-Triune Self ku-Realm of Permanence futhi manje ulahlekile emzimbeni-uzulazula endodeni nakowesifazane emhlabeni wokuzalwa nokufa nokufa futhi.

Ukukhombisa ukuthi kwenzeka kanjani konke lokhu, nokuthi kungenzeka ukuthi umuntu athathe intambo futhi ephukile ngenkathi edlule, futhi ngokwenza lokho athathe izinyathelo zokuqala zokubuyela ku-Realm of Permanence, inhloso yale ncwadi.
