Our understanding of the Emotional System today is still in the Dark Ages. This has its analogy to the time when people’ s understanding of our Solar System was based upon the belief that the Sun revolved around the Earth, as it certainly appeared that way--however, just the reverse was true. The problem was, as long as we believed the Sun went around the Earth, we were limited as to how far we could go in the Solar System.
We find the same condition existing today in regard to the Emotional System. Society believes that our emotional feelings are a result of our experiences in our environment. In essence：something happened and it made me feel the way I do. This belief, though it is certainly the way it appears, is just the reverse of how it really works.
What happens to us as we embrace an emotional feeling is that it is first received by our brain, which converts it into electrical energy that flows through our body by means of the central nervous system. We can often "feel the charge" in our body associated with the experience of emotions. When this occurs an electromagnetic field is generated around our body which attracts to us another person who has an identical electromagnetic field around their body and the game emotional feeling in their heart.
We have not been able to make much progress in the emotional area. Let’s face it, although this age reflects great advancements in technology, the feelings in the hearts of men and women are still plagued by darkness.
Believing that something or someone made us feel the way we do gives rise to the concept of victimization. To see self as a victim places the responsibility for our feelings on someone or something other than self. The real problem with this view is that if we are not responsible for having created our feelings, we are also unable to change those feelings and create new and different ones.
This dilemma we face creates quite a struggle in life. Although we may externally struggle with different circumstances and situations, the emotional feelings associated with them are always the same frustration, resentment, anger, etc. It is as if we have fallen into quicksand, gotten stuck, and the only way we know to extricate ourselves is to struggle. What we find is that the more we struggle to get out,the deeper in we sink.
To state a simple rule: there is an inverse relationship between struggling with a problem and understanding the problem. Understanding how the emotional system really works allows the resolution of problems without struggle. This understanding is the key to unlocking the emotional doorway to enter into the Kingdom of Heavenly Feelings within us. [460 words]

如今，我們對(duì)于情感系統(tǒng)的理解還處于黑暗時(shí)代。這與過(guò)去的一個(gè)時(shí)代很類(lèi)似，當(dāng)時(shí)人們對(duì)于太陽(yáng)系的理解基于一種信念，認(rèn)為太陽(yáng)正如人們所看到的那樣圍繞著地球轉(zhuǎn)。其實(shí)，反過(guò)來(lái)才正確。問(wèn)題是，只要我們相信太陽(yáng)圍繞著地球轉(zhuǎn)，我們也就局限了對(duì)于太陽(yáng)系的探索。
對(duì)于情感系統(tǒng)如今我們也面臨著同樣的情況。社會(huì)相信我們的情感是所處的環(huán)境中我們的經(jīng)歷的結(jié)果。實(shí)質(zhì)即：發(fā)生的事情讓我感覺(jué)到自己的行為方式。雖然這種信念確實(shí)是這樣出現(xiàn)的，但它和現(xiàn)實(shí)情形相反。
我們產(chǎn)生情感的過(guò)程是，大腦先有感受，然后把其轉(zhuǎn)變成電能，再經(jīng)過(guò)中樞神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)傳遍全身。我們身體常有情感經(jīng)驗(yàn)帶來(lái)的“來(lái)電感覺(jué)”。此時(shí)，我們身體周?chē)a(chǎn)生電磁場(chǎng)，把另一個(gè)身體周?chē)邢嗤姶艌?chǎng)、心中有相同情感體驗(yàn)的人吸引過(guò)來(lái)。
在情感領(lǐng)域，我們還沒(méi)能取得多大進(jìn)步。雖然這個(gè)時(shí)代體現(xiàn)了技術(shù)方面的巨大進(jìn)步，但我們不得不面對(duì)的是，世上男男女女的心靈依然被黑暗折磨。
認(rèn)為我們的感覺(jué)是由某件事或某個(gè)人所造成的，這導(dǎo)致自己產(chǎn)生受害的想法。把自己看做受害者，就等于認(rèn)為自己的情感與己無(wú)關(guān)，而是由別人或別的事所造成的。這個(gè)觀點(diǎn)真正的問(wèn)題是，如果我們對(duì)于自己產(chǎn)生的感覺(jué)沒(méi)有責(zé)任，我們也不能改變這些感覺(jué)、產(chǎn)生新的不同的感覺(jué)。
這個(gè)進(jìn)退兩難的局面造成了生命中的掙扎。從表面看來(lái)，雖然我們要與形形色色的環(huán)境和境遇作斗爭(zhēng)，不過(guò)與其相關(guān)的感情卻都一樣——挫折、怨恨、憤怒等等。似乎我們掉進(jìn)了流沙中，被困住了，而我們知道能夠出去的辦法就是掙扎。結(jié)果我們掙扎得越厲害，我們陷得越深。
一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的道理在于：在苦難中掙扎和理解這個(gè)問(wèn)題是相反的關(guān)系。了解情感系統(tǒng)是如何運(yùn)行的可以使我們不用掙扎就能解決問(wèn)題。這種了解是打開(kāi)情感大門(mén)進(jìn)入內(nèi)心情感天堂王國(guó)的鑰匙。
