Defining the meaning of "happiness" is a perplexing proposition; the best one can do is to try to set some extremes to the idea and then work towards the middle. To think of happiness as achieving superiority over others, living in a mansion made of marble, having a wardrobe with hundreds of outfits, will do to set the greedy extreme. To think of happiness as the joy of a holy man of India will do to set the spiritual extreme. He sits completely still, contemplating the nature of reality, free even of his own body. If admirers bring him food, he eats it; if not, he starves. Why be concerned? What is physical is trivial to him. To contemplate is his joy and he achieves complete mental focus through an incredibly demanding discipline, the accomplishment of which is itself a joy to him.
选项
答案
定义“幸福”是一个很难把握的命题。最好的办法是给它设定(几个方面的)极限,然后再取其中庸。把高人一等,住大理石豪宅,衣柜里衣帽上千看成是幸福,那就是物欲的极致了。把印度圣人的愉悦定义为幸福,那又是精神层面的极致。他一动不动地坐在那里,冥思存在的本质,甚至达到了忘我的境地。有仰慕者递上食物,他便吃,若没有。便饿着,这有什么呢?有形的东西在他看来都是微不足道的。静思就是他的快乐,通过极其苛刻的自律来达到精神上的完全入定,臻此境界的过程本身便是他的愉悦。
