"قيم كيف تقضي كل لحظة: بوجود أو إهمال"، قالها شاه نقشبند،

“Evaluate how you spend every moment: with presence or negligence,” said Shah Naqshband,

مؤسس الطريقة النقشبندية الصوفية.

founder of the Naqshbandi Sufi order.

الوجود في كل لحظة يعني التذكر أن "تكون" في كل ظرف: عند المشي، والتحدث،

Presence in every moment would imply remembering to Be in every circumstance: walking, speaking,

والعمل، وبالطبع عند الأكل.

working, and of course, eating.

يقال عن شاه نقشبند أنه إذا وضع تلاميذه الطعام في أفواههم بغفلة،

It is said of Shah Naqshband that if his disciples put food in their mouths heedlessly,

أخبرهم بما فعلوه وحثهم على الاحتفاظ بذكر الله أثناء الأكل.

he'd inform them of what they had done and urge them to keep remembrance of God while eating.

هو الذي قال: "إن أحد أهم الأبواب التي تؤدي الى الشعور بالوجود الإلهي هو الأكل بوعي".

“One of the most important doors to the Presence of God is to eat with Awareness,” he said.

نجد عرضًا لهذا في محفل الدراويش التابع للطريقة المولوية في قونية.

We find a display of this in the Dervish lodge of the Mevlevi order, in Konya.

في الوقت الحاضر هو ضريح جلال الدين الرومي.

Nowadays it is the mausoleum of Rumi.

وهو يعمل كمتحف ويضم مانيكانات تقدم

It functions as a museum and houses mannequins that present

نمط حياة سكانها الأصليين، تلاميذ الرومي.

the lifestyle of its original inhabitants, Rumi’s disciples.

عند تناول الطعام، جلسوا حول طاولة بينما وقف أحدهم على الجانب ليلعب دور "المراقب".

When dining, they sat around a table while one stood beside playing the role of ‘monitor.’

إذا وضع درويش الطعام في فمه بغفلة، يقوم "المراقب" بحثه على

If a Dervish put food in his mouth heedlessly, the ‘monitor’ urged him to

الاحتفاظ بذكر الله أثناء الأكل.

keep the remembrance of God while eating.

لاحظ كيف يجلسون وركبتهم أمام صدرهم.

Note them sitting with their knee in front of their chest.

هذا يمنعهم من الجلوس في وضعية مترهلة الى الامام، ويبعدهم عن طعامهم،

This prevents them from slouching forward, distances them from their food,

مما يخلق فجوة بين رغبتهم الجسدية في تناول الطعام،

forging a gap between their bodily urge to eat,

ودافعهم الروحاني للحفاظ على ذكر الله.

and their spiritual urge to maintain remembrance of God.

على بعد مائتي كيلومتر شرقاً وقبل عدة قرون،

Two hundred kilometers east and several centuries earlier,

نحت الرهبان المسيحيون الكنائس في صخور كابادوكيا.

Christian monks carved churches into the rocks of Cappadocia.

المسيحية، كذلك، وعظت بذكر الله المستمر.

Christianity, too, preached continual remembrance of God.

قال القديس بولس "صلوا بلا توقف".

“Pray without ceasing,” said the Apostle Paul.

الصلاة بلا توقف تعني التذكر أن "تكون" في جميع الأحوال:

Unceasing prayer would imply remembering to Be in all circumstances:

عند المشي، والتحدث، والعمل، وبالطبع عند الأكل.

walking, speaking, working, and of course, eating.

كان الرهبان يتناولون وجبات الطعام في قاعات تسمى غرف الطعام.

Monks dined communally in halls called refectories.

وقد تم تزيينها بصور تمثل العشاء الأخير.

These were adorned with representations of the Last Supper.

يظهر فيها يسوع جالساً حول مائدة مع تلاميذه،

Jesus is shown seated around a table with his disciples,

عادة في اللحظة التي يعلن فيها أن أحدهم سيخونه.

typically the moment he announces that one of them will betray him.

يستفسر التلاميذ من قد يكون الخائن.

The disciples inquire who might be the betrayer.

يتنبأ يسوع: "الذي يغمس يده معي في الطبق، سيخونني."

Jesus foretells: “He who dips his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.”

على الرغم من أنه من الممكن بالتأكيد تناول الطعام بوعي - بحيث نتذوق قضمة من الطعام أو رشفة من المشروبات

Although it is certainly possible to eat consciously — to taste a bite of food or sip of beverage

وفي نفس الوقت ندرك ذاتنا - لكن الرغبة في تناول الطعام غالبًا ما تغرق الوعي.

while being aware of oneself — the urge to eat too often eclipses consciousness.

صورة يهوذا وهو يحاول الوصول الى الطبق قبل يسوع، وهي معلقة فوق الرهبان المسيحيين،

The image of Judas reaching out to the dish before Jesus, towered above Christian monks,

تذكرهم بالتحكم في شهيتهم قبل أن تسيطر عليهم شهيتهم.

reminding them to control their appetites before their appetites controlled them.

وهكذا وجدت كل مدرسة طرقًا لإدخال الوعي إلى منطقة الطعام الصعبة.

And so each school found ways to introduce consciousness to the challenging area of dining.

مسلم أو مسيحي، قديم أو معاصر، تغيرت الأساليب،

Muslim or Christian, ancient or contemporary, the methods changed,

لكن الهدف ظل دائمًا كما هو.

but the aim always remained the same.
