Fragments- during the quiet transition

A collection of fragments on awareness, presence, and daily life — written in English and Chinese.

1

 

Not dramatic

 

Nothing dramatic happened.

 

There was no clear moment
that could be called awakening.

 

Just a gradual sense
that something unnecessary
was no longer being carried.

 

没有发生什么戏剧性的事情。

 

也没有某个
可以被称为“觉醒”的瞬间。

 

只是慢慢发现,

 

有些原本背着的东西
不见了

2

 

A small confusion

 

For a while
there was a strange uncertainty.

 

Not suffering.

 

Just a question quietly floating:

 

what happens
when the mind stops organising everything?

 

 

有一段时间
有一点轻微的不确定。

 

不是痛苦。

 

只是一个很安静的问题:

 

如果头脑
不再组织一切,

 

会发生什么?

3

 

Old habits still appear.

 

Trying to analyse.
Trying to improve.
Trying to reach clarity.

 

But they lose energy quickly.

 

一些旧的惯性
仍然会出现。

 

分析、
改进、
想要弄清楚。

 

但很快
就没有力气继续。

4

 

Slightly slower

​

Responses become a little slower.

 

Not because of confusion.

 

Because there is suddenly
space to notice the moment

before speaking.

 

回应有时会慢一点。

不是因为迟钝。

 

只是突然
多了一点空间
看见语言出现之前。

​

5

 

Nothing to report

 

When people ask,

 

“What have you been doing recently?”

 

it becomes difficult to answer.

 

Not because nothing happened.

 

But because nothing
needs to be emphasised.

 

有人问:

 

“最近在做什么?”

 

有时
很难回答。

 

不是因为没有发生什么,

 

而是没有什么
特别需要强调。

​

6

 

A quiet neutrality

​

Events still happen.

 

Good news.
Small frustrations.

 

But they pass through
more lightly.

 

事情仍然在发生。

 

好消息。
一点点不顺。

 

只是
经过得更轻。

7

 

Attention rests more often
in breathing,
in posture,
in the quiet movements of the body.

 

Not as a practice.

 

Simply because
nothing else is demanding it.

​

注意力
更常落在呼吸、
姿态、
身体细微的动静上。

 

不是练习。

 

只是没有什么
需要它离开。

8

 

The background

​

​Sometimes a soft ease appears.

 

Not happiness exactly.

 

More like the background
of the day
becoming wider.

 

有时会出现一种
轻轻的松。

 

不完全是快乐。

 

更像是
一天的背景
变宽了一些。

9

 

The mind adjusting

 

The mind occasionally
tries to rebuild a story.

 

“What does this mean?”

 

But the question
does not stay long.

​

头脑偶尔
会试图重新建构一个故事。

 

“这意味着什么?”

 

但这个问题
停留不了多久。

10

 

No urgency

​

There used to be
a sense that something important
needed to be achieved.

 

That urgency becomes faint.

 

从前
总觉得有什么重要的事情
必须完成。

 

这种急迫感
慢慢变淡。

11

 

Small amazement

 

Sometimes there is a quiet surprise.

How ordinary the day is.

​

How complete ordinary moments feel.

 

偶尔会有一点
安静的惊讶。

 

一天如此普通。

 

普通的时刻
却已经完整。

12

 

A light distance

 

Occasionally
there is a subtle feeling:

 

as if life is happening
very close,

 

yet not entirely inside the old identity.

 

有时会有一种
很微妙的感觉:

 

生活正在发生,

很近,

​​

但又不完全
落在旧的身份里。

13

 

Nothing final

​

This stage
does not feel like a conclusion.

 

More like a doorway
that has quietly opened.

​

这个阶段
不像某种终点。

 

更像是一扇门
悄悄打开了。

14

 

The simplest thing

 

Breathing.
Walking.
Children playing nearby.

 

Nothing needs to be added.

 

呼吸。
走路。
孩子在旁边玩。

 

不需要
再加什么。

No conclusions, no systems — just moments appearing and fading.
