recently written in one of the weekly magazines, 是最近写在一个周刊杂志上的，

I don't know if you really want to, if you're interested in this, 我不知道你们是不是真的想深入进去，是不是对这个感兴趣，
because, you see, 因为，你看，
I think, in understanding attention 我认为，在理解注意力的过程中，
we should be able to observe ourselves much more clearly, 我们应该能够把我们自己看得更清楚，
without any resistance, without the censor. 不带任何抗拒，也没有审查者。
Because understanding oneself is of primary importance, obviously 因为了解自己显然是最首要的
- oneself who is a living entity ——人本身是一个鲜活的实体，
and therefore the observation 所以,
must also be very attentive in that living sense, 在鲜活的生命这个意义上，观察也必须是全神贯注的，

from which to act, to think, to function 根据知识去行动、思考、运作

If he comes burdened, he's already translating what he sees 如果他带着沉重的负担，他就已经在根据他先前的知识

So he's always translating what he sees in terms of the past. 所以他总是根据过去来解释他所看到的。
The past then becomes the censor 过去就变成了审查者，
and therefore censor says, 于是审查者说：
'I'll resist this and accept this.' “我要反对这个，接受那个。”

So, the problem then is how to observe 那么，问题就变成了怎样观察
without accumulation. 而不积累。
Learning through observation 通过观察来学习，
without the process of accumulation taking place, 而没有发生积累的过程，
so learning is a movement 因而学习本身就是一种运动

to learn and not to accumulate. 怎样学习而不积累。
It's quite... if you go into it, it becomes quite subtle, 那非常……如果你深入进去，它就会变得非常微妙，
quite extraordinarily interesting. 非常非常有趣。

without the pressure of the past 而没有过去的压力
interfering with what is being learned. 干涉正在了解的东西。
Now, how does this happen? 那么，这怎样才能发生？

and assuming authority to analyse. 装作分析的权威。
But that fragment is interrelated with the rest of the fragments 但这个碎片与其他碎片是相关联的，

So, to observe without analysis - I don't know if you follow all this - 所以，不带分析的观察——我不知道你们是不是完全理解了——
which means not to come to a conclusion ever, 那意味着，永远不要得出结论，
never to say to myself, 'I know myself' 绝不对自己说，“我了解我自己”
- so that is the problem. ——那种说法就是问题。
So, the specialists have said, you know, 所以，专家说过，你知道，
the people like the Zen and other people, 禅宗的人，以及其他一些人，
said cultivate attention, awareness, 说培养注意力、觉察，
cultivate awareness so that there is no interference of the past. 培养觉察力，来实现没有过去的干涉。
