By nature, our mind doesn’t think.
Per natura, la nostra mente non pensa.
It associates.
Associa.
Thoughts are stimulated by accident, whirled around by momentum,
I pensieri sono stimolati per caso, fatti roteare in giro per slancio,
and colored by our physical or emotional state.
e colorati dal nostro stato fisico o emotivo.
When we are happy we harbor pleasant associations; when tired we harbor morbid associations.
Quando siamo felici ospitiamo piacevoli associazioni; quando siamo stanchi ospitiamo associazioni morbose.
This subjective mental activity cannot be considered thinking.
Questa attività mentale soggettiva non può essere considerata pensare.
It cannot reach any conclusion.
Non può arrivare a nessuna conclusione.
It turns around in circles, aimlessly.
Si gira in tondo, senza meta.
The raw yield of our mind is as useless as a bushel of wheat is inedible.
Il risultato grezzo della nostra mente è inutile quanto uno stelo di grano non commestibile.
To be made edible, wheat must be threshed, milled, mixed, kneaded, and baked into bread.
Per essere commestibile, il grano deve essere trebbiato, macinato, mescolato, impastato e cotto nel pane.
Likewise, to benefit from our mind’s activity, its associations must first be observed.
Allo stesso modo, per beneficiare dell'attività della nostra mente, le sue associazioni devono prima essere osservate.
The useful kernels must be singled out of many useless husks.
I semi utili devono essere scelti tra molte bucce inutili.
They must be made relevant to our conduct, our needs, our aim.
le osservazioni devono essere pertinenti alla nostra condotta, alle nostre esigenze, al nostro obiettivo.
And only when they are formulated into knowledge that we can apply in a moment of need,
E solo quando sono trasformati in conoscenza che possiamo applicarle in un momento di necessità,
can they be called true wisdom.
possono essere chiamati vera saggezza.
Then we have ‘thought;’ our mind has yielded a useful harvest.
Quindi abbiamo "pensato"; la nostra mente ha fruttato un raccolto utile.
This potential distinguishes us from all other creatures.
Questo potenziale ci distingue da tutte le altre creature.
Adam was the only member of creation who knew his own name,
Adamo era l'unico membro della creazione che sapeva il suo nome,
as well as the name of all other animals.
così come il nome di tutti gli altri animali.
Knowing the names of things, Adam could potentially entertain abstract ideas,
Conoscendo i nomi delle cose, Adamo potrebbe potenzialmente intrattenere idee astratte,
compare, measure, and reason.
confrontare, misurare e ragionare.
But we must emphasize potential.
Ma dobbiamo sottolineare il potenziale.
Thinking is a potential yield of our mind, just as bread is a potential outcome of wheat
Il pensiero è una nostra potenziale resa della mente, proprio come il pane è un potenziale risultato del grano
Left alone, the mind yields useless associations that crowd our inner landscape.
Rimasta sola, la mente produce associazioni inutili che affollano il nostro paesaggio interiore.
Tended, it yields wisdom that guides our conduct.
Teso, produce saggezza che guida la nostra condotta.
Therefore, farming the mind is a process of mental refinement, and one of great consequence.
Pertanto, coltivare la mente è un processo di raffinazione mentale, e una delle grandi conseguenze.
As Marcus Aurelius said, “Such as are thy habitual thoughts,
Come diceva Marco Aurelio, “Come i tuoi pensieri abituali,
such also will be the character of thy mind;
tale sarà anche il carattere della tua mente;
for the soul is dyed by the thoughts.”
poiché l'anima è tinta dai pensieri. "
