Q: P’taah a friend asked me, What is unconditional love? And how does it work?

问：一个朋友问我，什么是无条件的爱？以及它是如何运作的？

P’taah: All right, that is a very good one because what you call love, very often, we would not call love, eh? You know, love is simply another name for goddess/god. Love is the building block of existence. Love is whole and complete within itself, and requires no return.

P’taah:好的，这是一个非常好的问题，因为你们经常称为的爱，我们不会这么称呼它。要知道，爱是女神/神的另一个名称。爱是存在的基石。爱本身是完整的，不要任何回报

So you may say that when you express love, and you express love which requires no return, you are expressing the goddess/god-ness of you.

所以你可能会说当你表达爱，你表达不需要任何回报的爱，你在表达你的女神/神本质

When it comes with conditions, that is a different thing altogether. That does not mean that you cannot love somebody, or care deeply. But, you know, in the truest love and appreciation, and awe and wonderment simply at the wholeness of love, you get an idea of what is unconditional love, hmm? And our desire for each of you is that you will know unconditional love for who you are, as a perfect expression of goddess/god.

当爱有条件，就会变成一个完全不同的东西。这并不意味着你不能爱或关心别人。但，你知道，在最真实的爱和感激中，敬畏并惊叹于爱的完整，你会了解到什么是无条件之爱。我们希望你们每个人知道无条件之爱是你的所是，作为女神/神的一个完美表达

When you think about who you are, you very often edit who you think you are because much of who you think you are does not, in a way, come up to standard, is not good enough. And you think of what you would call the not so nice bits, or the bad bits for some of you, or the things that you have said and done and thought that were certainly not of love.

当你思考你是谁，你经常编辑你认为你是谁，因为大部分你认为你是谁，在某种程度上，并不达到标准，是不够好的。你思考你会称为的不好或糟糕，或你所说、所走、所想并不是爱的东西。

And so you will not acknowledge, you will not embrace. But when you understand that all of those, what you would call negative aspects, were simply born out of fear that you were not enough, then indeed you can open your heart, you can look honestly at who you are, acknowledge it, and acknowledge the fear that created these thoughts and actions which were not as whole as you would have wanted.

所以你不会承认，你不会接受。但当你明白所有这些东西，你称为的消极面向，只是诞生于你不够好的恐惧，你确实可以敞开你的心，你可以真诚地看向你的所是，认识到它，认识到创造了这些想法和行为的恐惧

And be in the understanding that all of this, all of this, comes from that small portion of you which has forgotten the truth of you: that you are perfect, that you are eternal, and that you are the most wondrous expression of goddess/god.

明白，这一切，来自忘记了你之真理的那微小部分：你是完美的，你是永恒的，你是女神/神最奇妙的表达

And when you can look at who you are and love that expression of goddess/god that you are, then indeed you are coming to really understand unconditional love.

当你可以看向你的所是并爱你的女神/神表达，你就会真正明白无条件之爱

Q: Choosing physical reality was a tough thing to do wasn’t it?

问：选择物理现实是一件困难的事情，是不是？

P’taah: Oh indeed, indeed, and as one beloved friend said, you know, this be-ing in physicality is not for sissies! (laughter)

P’taah:确实，就像一位亲爱的朋友说过，你知道的，处于物理身体中不适合胆小的人（笑）
