[00:00.66]The Splashes Of Life 生命的波纹


[00:08.54]There is a famous Sioux Indian story 


[00:11.81]handed down from generation to generation:


[00:14.66]The grandfather took his grandson to the fish pond on the farm 


[00:19.90]when the boy was about seven,


[00:21.88]and he told the boy to throw a stone into the water.


[00:25.38]He told the boy to watch the circles created by the stone.


[00:29.33]Then he asked the boy to think of myself as that stone.


[00:33.92]“You may create lots of splashes in your life,


[00:38.08]but the waves that come from those splashes 


[00:41.17]will disturb the peace of all your fellow creatures,” he said.


[00:46.39]“Remember that you are responsible for what you put in your circle 


[00:51.44]and that circle will also touch many other circles.”


[00:55.15]“You will need to live in a way 


[00:58.00]that allows the good that comes from your circle


[01:00.95]to send the peace of that goodness to others.


[01:04.00]The splash that comes from anger or jealousy 


[01:07.15]will send those feelings to other circles.


[01:10.03]You are responsible for both.”


[01:13.96]That was the first time the boy realized 


[01:16.77]that each person creates the inner peace or discord 1 


[01:20.05]that flows out into the world.


[01:21.62]We cannot create world peace 


[01:24.76]if we are riddled 2 with inner conflict, hatred 3, doubt, or anger.


[01:29.17]We radiate the feelings and thoughts that we hold inside,


[01:33.95]whether we speak them or not.


[01:35.95]Whatever is splashing around inside of us is spilling out into the world,


[01:41.42]creating beauty or discord with all other circles of life.
