- In the secular world we think, "If an idea is important, I'll bump into it. I'll just come across it."
- 在非宗教世界里，我们觉得 "我会毫无预兆就想到一个好主意，我是偶然想到的"
- Nonsense, says the religious world view.
- 宗教人士会说 "胡扯"
- Religious view says we need calendars, we need to structure time, we need to synchronize encounters.
- 宗教人士觉得我们需要日历，需要安排好时间，我们需要同步好想法和时间
- This comes across also in the way in which religions set up rituals around important feelings.
- 这还帮助宗教们安排传统仪式和感受到特定的感情
- Take the Moon. It's really important to look at the Moon.
- 就像月亮，看月亮是非常重要的
- You know, when you look at the Moon, you think, "I'm really small. What are my problems?"
- 你看月亮的时候，你会想 "我真渺小，我有什么问题呢"
- It sets things into perspective, etc., etc.
- 这帮助你从不同角度看世界
- We should all look at the Moon a bit more often. We don't.
- 我们应该经常赏月，可是我们不这么做
- Why don't we? Well there's nothing to tell us, "Look at the Moon."
- 为什么呢，因为光看月亮不会给我们什么信息
- But if you're a Zen Buddhist in the middle of September,
- 但如果你是个信禅的，在九月中旬
- you will be ordered out of your home, made to stand on a canonical platform and made to celebrate the festival of Tsukimi,
- 你会去一个专门的站台上，去庆祝月见节日
- where you will be given poems to read in honor of the Moon and the passage of time
- 你会吟诗去赞赏月亮，你会阅读关于时间的文章
- and the frailty of life that it should remind us of.
- 你会被重新提醒关于生命的脆弱
- You'll be handed rice cakes.
- 你会收到米糕
- And the Moon and the reflection on the Moon will have a secure place in your heart. That's very good.
- 而月亮和它的倒影会让你感到内心中的一片净土。这是很好的事情
- The other thing that religions are really aware of is: speak well
- 宗教还注重另外一件事情就是去好好说话发言
- I'm not doing a very good job of this here -- but oratory, oratory is absolutely key to religions.
- 虽然我的演讲不是很出色，但是演讲术对宗教来说是非常关键的
- In the secular world, you can come through the university system and be a lousy speaker and still have a great career.
- 在非宗教世界里，你仍然可以有个很好的工作，即使你演讲说的很糟糕
- But the religious world doesn't think that way.
- 但是在宗教世界里不是这样的
- What you're saying needs to be backed up by a really convincing way of saying it.
- 你说的话必须要有说服力，去支持你的论点
- So if you go to an African-American Pentecostalist church in the American South
- 如果你去一个在美国南部的非洲美国五旬节教会
- and you listen to how they talk, my goodness, they talk well.
- 你会知道他们的演讲是如何出色
- After every convincing point, people will go, "Amen, amen, amen."
- 每在说得好的地方，大家会说"阿门，阿门，阿门"
- At the end of a really rousing paragraph, they'll all stand up,
- 在最后一段振奋人心的地方，大家都会站起来
- and they'll go, "Thank you Jesus, thank you Christ, thank you Savior."
- 他们说 "谢谢你耶稣，谢谢上帝，谢谢救世主"
- If we were doing it like they do it -- let's not do it, but if we were to do it --
- 如果我们像他们那样做--好吧算了，但如果我们真的做了--
- I would tell you something like, "Culture should replace scripture."
- 我会告诉你们，文明文化应该代替教典
- And you would go, "Amen, amen, amen."
- 然后你们会说 "阿门，阿门，阿门"
- And at the end of my talk, you would all stand up and you would go, "Thank you Plato, thank you Shakespeare, thank you Jane Austen."
- 我演讲完的时候，你们应该都站起来，然后说 "谢谢你柏拉图，谢谢莎士比亚，谢谢简·奥斯汀"
- And we'd know that we had a real rhythm going.
- 我们都知道你们会说的很好
- All right, all right. We're getting there. We're getting there.
- 好了，快说到重点了
