序言 Forward 约翰·L·凯梅尼博士，爱因斯坦的同事 By Or. John L. Kemeny, Albert Einstein Associate 我已经86岁了。我曾经做过科学研究员、外科医生，还有哥伦比亚大学医学院和UCLA（加州大学洛杉矶分校）心理压力中心的精神病学教授。我也曾经为财富500强公司做过60多年的私人咨询师。我年轻的时候曾与爱因斯坦共事。 1977年，我遇见了一位发现了行为科学史上具有深远影响的重大突破的物理学家，他的名字是莱斯特·利文森。他使潜意识摆脱了束缚并且设计了一个简单的方法来摆脱任何水平上的消极性。这个方法就是圣多纳释放法。莱斯特·利文森与拉里·克兰向我介绍了并传授了这种方法。我在我自己身上成功实践了20多年。 拉里·克兰在这本新书中所教授的是促使人运用释放法的一大重要步骤。通过参与和实践释放法，你将会达到某种波澜不惊，不受任何人事物干扰的境界，某种让你消除所有“我不行”并将之替换为“我行”的境界。为了更全面地从此法中收益，我建议你体验式地参与其中并精准地按照书中的逐步练习与指导进行。希望你能拥有一次非凡而喜悦的体验。
I am 86 years old and I have been a research scientist, a surgeon, and a professor of psychiatry at Columbia University Medical School and at UCLA University Stress Center. I have also been a private consultant to Fortune 500 companies for over 60 years. I worked with Albert Einstein in my formative years. In 1977, I met a physicist named Lester Levenson who discovered a profound breakthrough in the history of behavioral science. He liberated the subconscious mind and designed a simple method: How to get rid of negativity at any level. The method is called "The RELEASE?Technique". Lester Levenson and Larry Crane introduced me to and taught me this technique. I have practiced it for over 20 years myself successfully.
The new work that Larry Crane is teaching is a major step in facilitating the application of the Technique. By participating and experiencing this method, you will reach a place where nothing and no one will ever bother you again. A place where you can eliminate all your "I can't"s and replace them with "I can's". In order to get the full benefit of this course, I recommend that you participate experientially and follow the step-by-step exercises and instructions in this book exactly. I wish you a remarkable and joyful experience.
这本书将如何帮助你 HOW THIS BOOK WILL HELP YOU 圣多纳释放法是能显著提高你生活质量与效益的强有力的、独特的、也是非常实际的工具。这个自我探究的创新方法能够帮助你体验任何你认为你人生中应当持有的东西，如更多的金钱、更好的人际关系、更健康的身体、层层推进的成功事业、或者对于意义及目标的全新感觉。 这听上去似乎意味着很多要做的事，不过我们向你担保，不会的。圣多纳释放法是一种会完全改造你的生活的方法，但是它运用起来也并不难。这种革新的、独创的系统已经经过了国内多所高等院校的主要医生与研究人员们的科学验证。不过实际上，它是以一些世界上最古老而珍贵的秘密为基础的。
The Release® Technique (Releasing) is a powerful, unique and yet very practical tool that can significantly improve the quality and effectiveness of your life. This innovative method of self inquiry can assist you in experiencing whatever you believe your life should hold: more money, better relationships, physical well-being, improved career success or a renewed sense of meaning and purpose.
This may sound like a lot to promise, but we assure you it is not. The Release Technique is a life-transforming technique and yet it is easy to use. It is an innovative, original system that has been scientifically tested by leading doctors and researchers at some of the best universities in the country, and yet it is based on some of the world's most ancient and treasured secrets.
圣多纳释放法已由哈佛大学、哥伦比亚大学和纽约州立大学的研究学者所证实。来自哈佛的大卫·麦克利兰博士（Dr. David McClelland）和来自纽约州立大学的理查德·戴维森博士（Dr. Richard Davidson）发现，释放法因其简便性、高效率、不含可疑概念以及立竿见影的效果而在同类方法中脱颖而出，无与伦比。 这些研究同样揭示了运用这一方法的个体出现了心率和舒张压的显著下降。至于效果是否能长期保持，整体研究表明在训练后的几个月内，在促进并保持压力下降方面。释放法都是有效的。
The Technique has been scientifically verified by Harvard, Columbia and State University of New York researchers. Researchers Dr. David McClelland of Harvard University and Dr. Richard Davidson of the State University of New York have found that "The Release Technique stands out far beyond the rest for its simplicity, efficiency, absence of questionable concepts and rapidity of results."
These studies also revealed that individuals using the technique show significant reduction in heart rate and diastolic blood pressure. With respect to short- versus long-term gain, the overall findings suggest that it is effective in promoting and maintaining stress reduction months after the training.
爱因斯坦共事者的研究 Researched by Albert Einstein Associate
在职精神病医师，约翰·L·凯梅尼，医学博士，爱因斯坦前同事，说道，我研究了拉里的释放法。那是一个很使我受益并获得启发的经历。它给人以鲜活的的能量、主动性、以及全新的见解。我全心全意向任何想要改善自己生活的人推荐这一方法。 直到不久前，圣多纳释放法只是通过私人授课向少数人传播。然而，经过多年实验，我们已经找到了新的方法，将其通过不同的形式更有效地介绍出去。所以我们现在邀请您参与到生命中真正非凡且令人充满力量的经历，即自我探索与自我掌控的旅程中来。
Practicing psychiatrist, John L. Kemeny, M.D. and a former associate of Albert Einstein, said "I studied Larry's Releasing Technique. It was an enriching and enlightening experience. It provided new energy, spontaneity and fresh insights. I wholeheartedly recommend th is program to anyone interested in improving their life."
Until recently, The Release Technique was only available to a small number of people through private classes. However, after years of experimentation we have found new ways to effectively introduce it in different forms. So we can now invite you to participate in one of life's truly remarkable and empowering adventures--the journey of self-inquiry and self-mastery.
如何肯定你花在学习并运用释放法上的时间能够让你在生活中创造出你一直渴望着的那种变化呢？答案很简单，释放法不仅仅是一套概念与理论的组合，它更是一种实用的技术。你即使是今天才开始使用它，也能在生活中造成重要的直接后果。 圣多纳释放法如此之有效，是因为它作为导致变化的原始工具直接作用于你本人。它并不干涉结果，而是应对原因。它不会给你一套策略，确保能够改变外部环境。当然，它也不会给你操纵别人改变其行为的建议，不管做得多巧妙。相反的，它的原理就像著名心理学家荣格（Carl Jung）的一条可靠而实际的建议，即“如果外界出了什么差错，我内心也必然不是太平的。所以，如果我是明智的，我一定先开始修正我自己。”
How can you be sure that the time you spend learning and using this technique will allow you to create the kinds of changes you desire in your life? The answer is Simple. The Release Technique is not just a set of ideas and theories. It is practical technology that you can begin working with today to produce direct and measurable results in your life.
The Release Technique is so effective because it works directly on you as the primary instrument of change. It does not deal with effects. It deals with cause. It does not promise you strategies that will change the outside environment. And it certainly does not suggest that you use manipulation, no matter how subtly, to change someone else's behavior. Instead, it echoes the very sound and practical suggestion of noted psychologist Carl Jung, who said "If things go wrong in the world, something is wrong in me. Therefore, if I am sensible, I shall but myself right first."
你的痛苦究竟是你身边的人事物造成的，还是你对他们的反应导致的呢？ 内在变化的副产品即是发生在外在环境的大量显而易见的变化。能量会吸引相似的能量，所以一旦你改变了自己的内在，外界的人与环境也会相应改变。这些变化是有形并且可以立刻证明的。就像莱斯特·利文森以他那科学而平易近人地方式反复提到的那样，“不要相信任何我说的话，去证实它们就行了。”
Is it the things going on around you that are causing distress; or is it your reaction to them? The byproduct of this internal change though is a massively noticeable change of the outside environment. Energy begets like energy--once you change your inner being people and circumstances change accordingly. These changes are tangible and instantly provable. As Lester Levenson said repeatedly in his scientifically pragmatic way: "Don't believe anything I say, take it for checking."
作者注 AUTHOR'S NOTE “得到爱的唯一方法是给出爱，因为我们所给出的最终会回到自己身上。”——莱斯特·利文森 "The only method of receiving love is to give love, because what we give out must come back."--Lester Levenson 关于莱斯特·利文森和释放法的诞生 ABOUT LESTER LEVENSON AND HOW THE RELEASE TECHNIQUE WAS BORN
1909年7月19日，莱斯特·利文森诞生于一个美国新泽西州伊丽莎白市的犹太移民家庭。他从小在父母和三个姐姐的宠爱中长大。然而他的主导性格特点是羞涩。他很沉默内向，经常思考着人生的意义。他的父母并不完全信教，不过他的两对祖父母都是非常虔诚的犹太教徒。莱斯特21岁时，他挚爱的父母去世了。他拒绝为死者祈祷，“那能让他们起死回生吗？如果能，我就说”，他如是说道。从此，怀着这种抗拒心理，他离开了上帝。 令人惊讶的是，莱斯特轻而易举地升入大学，成为物理学家、工程师，最终经商成功成为一名白手起家的百万富翁。然而，在他无数骄人成绩之下，他的内心一直有一种固有的躁动，一种似乎主宰了他生活的焦虑与压力。
Lester Levenson was born in Elizabeth, New jersey, on july 19, 1909, to jewish emigrant parents. He grew up much loved, doted on by his parents and three sisters. Yet his predominant characteristic was shyness. He was extremely withdrawn and introspective, constantly wondering what this life was about. His parents were not really religious but his grandfathers on both sides were holy people, rabbis. Lester was 21 when his beloved mother and father died. He refused to say the prayer for the dead. "Will that bring them back? If it does, I'll say it." Then defiantly he turned away from God.
Lester sailed through school and college with astonishing ease, becoming a physicist, an engineer, a successful businessman and a self-made millionaire. Yet despite all his achievements there was an innate turmoil in his heart, an anxiety and stress that seemed to rule his life.
1952年，莱斯特42岁，他的心脏病第二次严重发作。那个时候还没有心脏搭桥手术或移植，所以当他从急救室被推出来的时候，医生告诉他，“莱斯特，我们非常遗憾地通知您，您只有两个，最多三个，星期可活了，我们已经尽力了。所以我们想请您回家。” 于是莱斯特回家了。 他非常害怕死亡，不过他跟自己说，“你还在呼吸呐，莱斯特，还有机会呢。”然后他坐下，开始不眠不休地思考。他一直被认为是个聪明人，永远名列前茅，在那个根本就没什么奖学金的年代他都能获得罗格斯大学的四年全额奖学金。但是他又跟自己说，“莱斯特，你真蠢真蠢真蠢！所有那些累积的学识，所有那些才智都带你到了什么地步呀！看！你现在就是个死人啊！如果你还发现不了是什么挡在求生之路上，无法消灭它，你就真的死路一条了！”
In 1952, at the age of 42, Lester had his second massive heart attack. In those days, they did not have bypass surgery or heart transplants and so when he came out of the emergency room, the doctors told him, "Lester, we're sorry to tell you, but you have two weeks to live, three at the most, and we can't do anything for you. So we're sending you home."
So Lester went home.
He was extremely fearful of dying, but he said to himself, "You're still breathing, Lester; there is still a chance." Then he sat down and began thinking around-the-clock. He had always been considered a brilliant man. Always on the honor roll. The recipient of a four-year scholarship to Rutgers University back in the days when few scholarships were handed out. But he said to himself, "Lester, you are stupid, stupid, stupid! All this accumulated knowledge, all this intellect has gotten you to the place that you're a dead man! And if you don't uncover what's in the way, eliminate it, you're going to die!"
作为一个物理学家，莱斯特知道他得重新开始，将往事一笔勾销，然后从零开始。所以他开始检视自己的生命。他注意到，每次他因为极度想要什么东西时就会生病，那种强烈的想要的感受才是他痛苦的真正来源。他想要爱，想要钱，想要事情改变。每次他体会着那种“想要”，他就会产生某种不舒服的感受，但是他将其归咎于疾病。然后他发现，无论何时，当他只是付出，只是爱，而不是想要什么时，他并不会生病。所以他问自己，“那么，如果我能够摆脱所有的非爱的感受，我会好转吗？”他考虑了这个问题并发现了一件令那时的他吃惊不已的事。 他发现，他感到最幸福的时候就是爱着的时候，那种幸福感与其说来源于“被别人爱”，还不如说是来自“爱着别人”。
Being a physicist, he knew he had to go back to the drawing board, wipe the slate clean, and start from point zero. So he started to examine his life. He noticed that each time he was ill he was wanting something and that the intense wanting feelings were what was actual ly making him miserable. He wanted love, he wanted money, he wanted to change things, and every time he looked at that wanting, he had an uncomfortable feeling that he traced back to his illness. Then he noticed that whenever he was giving and loving and wasn't wanting anything, he was not ill. So, he asked himself, "Well, if I could get rid of all my non-loving feelings, would I get better?" He thought about this question and uncovered something that was startling to him at the time.
He noticed that when he was loving he was happiest. That happiness equated to being loving rather than being loved.
那就是一个出发点。莱斯特问自己，他是否可以用此道治愈自己的病痛。所以他开始将自己所有的想法与感受在那个方向上进行联结，从“想要被爱”到“爱着”。他检视了自己所有的人际关系并释放了所有过去留下来的非爱感受。在此过程中，他又有了另一个惊人的发现：他看到，他想要改变整个世界的愿望，即是他所有疾病的根源，也正是这愿望让他被这世界所奴役。他决定通过卸下潜意识里观念与压力的负担和为生命中所发生的一切负责来扭转这一切。此时，他发现所谓的“限制”，不过是我们人类头脑里的一条观念而已，一条不难舍弃的观念。他认识到上帝就在我们心中，我们都是不受限制的无限存在。这种认识让他幸福了许多，他感到更加自由，更加轻盈，并且对幸福有了一个更加完整的感受。 后来，他甚至说道，我们拥有神的能力却活得像个白痴。
That was a starting point. He asked himself if he could cure his illnesses this way. So, he began connecting all of his thoughts and feelings in that direction--from that of "wanti ng to be loved", to that of " loving". He examined all his relationships and he let go of all of his non-loving feelings from the past. In that process he made another shocking discovery: He saw that he wanted to change the entire world and that was the cause of all his ai lments, making him a slave to this world. He decided to reverse that by actually unloading the subconscious concepts and pressures and by taking responsibility for everything happening in his life. At this point he discovered that limitations were only concepts in our minds and can easi ly be dropped. He realized that God is within us all, that we are infinite beings with no limitations. With that realization, he became happier: freer, lighter and with an overa ll sense of well-being.
Later on he would say: "We are all gods acting like goddamned fools."
好几个月过去了，莱斯特仍好好地活着。他几乎不睡觉，吃得也很少，继续致力于自我开发。他修补了自己的物质形体。所有的痛苦都消失了，他发现他达到了那种不受悲伤阴影影响的快乐，他成功治愈了自己。 此外，莱斯特解密了心智的奥秘：头脑是如何运作的，人对此怎么做，怎么修正它。如何矫正一个人的思想，如何捋出一份头脑内的清单，将不需要的东西统统删除。 莱斯特是个非常慷慨的人。他将自己的余生花在了帮助别人发现他自己早已解锁的秘密上。1994年，莱斯特去世了，享年84岁——在医生断定他只有两三个星期可活后他又活了42年！ 在他去世之前，嘱咐我继续他未竟的事业。
Months went by and Lester sti ll wasn't dead. He hardly went to sleep, he ate a little bit, and he continued to work on himself. He corrected his physical body. All of his miseries dropped away and he found himself in a place in which he was happy all the time, without sorrow. He totally cured himself.
More than that, Lester unlocked the science of the mind: How the mind works, what to do about it and how to correct it. How to correct your thinking. How to call up the menu of your mind, take a look at this menu and eliminate what you don't want.
Lester was a giving person--one thousand percent! He spent the remainder of his life helping others discover this secret that he had unlocked for himself. He passed on in 1994 at the age of 84--42 years after being told he had two to three weeks to live!
And before he died, he asked me to continue his work. 拉里·克兰Larry Crane 2002年6月June 2002
引言 我们开始吧 INTRODUCTION WE BEGIN “不要相信任何我说的话，自己通过在生活中获得财富、快乐、幸福和健康来证明它。”
——莱斯特·利文森 "You should not believe anything we say, but prove it out for yourself by having great wealth, happiness, well being and health in your life." --Lester Levenson
我是拉里·克兰，我再次向你介绍丰盛课程。丰盛并不只意味着金钱方面，还包括健康、财富等生活中的方方面面——在每件事上的丰盛。我会引导你运用一系列不可思议且深入浅出的技巧来你消除人生中阻挡在通往真正意义上的丰盛的道路上的任何障碍。在我看来这无疑是人类历史上最神奇的发现。
My name is Larry Crane and I welcome you to the Abundance Course. Abundance does not just mean money: It means health, it means wealth, it means everything in life--an abundance of everything. I wil l be guiding you through a series of incredible techniques-overy simple, very profound--that will allow you to eliminate anything that stands in the way of you having total abundance in your life. It is easily in my opinion the most amazing discovery in the history of mankind.
丹尼尔·高曼（Daniel Goleman）所著的《EQ》（Emotional Intelligence）近来占据了纽约时报畅销书排行榜的第一位。那本书的前提就是，在预见你在生活中能达到何等的成功与满足的方面，情商比智商重要得多。实际上，那本书重新定义了聪敏与有效。 高曼（Goleman）在他的书中定义了五种组成人情商的关键能力。以下是对这些能力的总结以及它们是如何与丰盛课程和圣多纳释放法相联系的。
The book EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE by Daniel Goleman recently spent time as the #1 bestseller on the New York Times list. The premise of the book is that our emotional intelligence is much more important in predicting our level of success and satisfaction in life than our I.Q. In fact, the book has redefined what it means to be smart and effective in life.
In his book, Goleman defines five critical sk il ls that make up emotional intelligence. The following is a summation of these skills and how they relate to the Abundance Course and the skill of releasing.
1、 了解自己的情绪 自我意识——能时刻意识到自己当下产生的感受——是情商的重点。能实时监控自己的感受对于提高心理洞察力和自我认识能力是十分重要的。书中的此部分课程是为了帮助人更好地察觉自己时时刻刻的感受而设计的。课程里也有专门的训练，提供读者一份情绪的地图与有效工具，帮助他们察觉并解决情绪问题。新的调查表明，察觉自己的情绪能够帮助我们更好地做决定，并且让我们的判断少受不恰当的情绪反应的困扰。此课程专门设置了帮助读者消除可能使其做出令自己后悔的决定的不恰当的情绪反应的过程。
1. Knowing one's emotions. Self-awareness--recognizing a feeling as it happens--is the keystone of emotional intel ligence. The ability to monitor what we are feeling moment to moment is crucial to psychological insight and self understanding. The course is designed to help you gain better awareness of what you are feeling moment to moment. There are also specific exercises in the course that will give you a roadmap to your emotions and effective tools to deal with them. New research is discovering that being aware of our emotions helps us to make better decisions and inappropriate emotional responses cloud our judgment. The course includes specific processes that will help you to el -iminate the inappropriate emotional responses that cause you to make decisions that you later regret.
2、 管理自己的情绪 操控自己的情绪，使它们变得恰如其分。圣多纳释放法在这方面远远超过情绪管理的是，它给你了一个利器去释放或消除令你痛苦并受限的情绪和压力，让它们不再阻碍你表现出最好的样子并且从人生中不可避免的挫折与挑战中东山再起。它同样告诉你如何去移除那些过去的精神创伤与失望的阴影遗留下来的情感负担与思维定势。
2. Managing emotions. Handling feelings so they are appropriate. "The RELEASE Technique" goes beyond managing your emotions by giving you a powerful tool to let go of or eliminate the painful and limiting emotions and stress that prevent you from performing at your best and being able to bounce back from life's inevitable setbacks and challenges. It also will show you how to eliminate the emotional baggage and patterns that stem from the traumas and disappointments of the past.
3、 自我激励 为了某个目的而整理情绪对于集中注意力、自我激励、掌握情况和创作都是至关重要的。情绪的自我控制——延迟满足与扼杀冲动——是取得每一种成就的基础。而激活“流畅模式”的能力则确保了各种杰出的表现。在我们的基础课程中读者将接触到的是向其展示如何轻而易举消灭拦在实现梦想道路上的情感阻塞的工具。在你轰掉那些尖叫着“我不行！我不知道怎么去做！我不值得这么好的！我应付不来！”的那些障碍后，你会发现你内心有一种与生俱来的“我行”的感觉，自然而然地把你投向更大的成功。我们那些不恰当的情绪会导致我们冲动的行为，但是一旦你将它们释放，则会更容易坚持自己的目标。那些已经出师的学员反馈说，坚持使用这个方法会带来在“流畅模式”下的更大成功。此部分课程也特别设置了帮助您实现所有心中渴望的环节。
3. Motivating oneself. Marshaling emotions in service to a goal is essential for paying attention, for self-motivations and mastery and for creativity. Emotional self-control --delaying gratification and stifling impulsiveness—underlies accomplishment of every sort. And being able to get into the "flow" state enables outstanding performance of all kinds. The tools you will learn in our basic course will show you how to easily eliminate the blocking feelings that prevent you from achieving what you want in life. As you eliminate the feelings that say, "I can't! I don't know how! I don't deserve it! I can't handle it!" you uncover your innate sense of "I can" that naturally catapults you to greater success. Our inappropriate emotions cause us to act impulsively. As you let them go, you find it easier to stick with your goals. Graduates report that consistent use of the method results in greater access to the "flow" state. The course will also show you specific processes designed to help you achieve all you desire.
4、 感知其他人的情绪 移情作用是人类最基本的能力之一。当你使用书中技巧的时候，你不仅将更好地觉察自己的情绪，也能更好得感知其他人的情绪，然后按照他们所需要和希望的来调整自己的状态。
4. Recognizing emotions in others. Empathy is the fundamental people skill. As you use the technique, you will not only become more aware of your own emotions, you will be able to recognize the emotions of others and attune yourself to their needs and wants.
5、 处理人际关系 从很大一部分上来说，处理人际关系的艺术就是控制他人情绪的技巧和能力。当你通过释放法卸下了自己的情感负担并增长了同理心后，你将自身与其他人联系的能力也会自然而然地提高。当你了解到你就是自己情绪的主人时，你凭直觉就知道如何引领他人主导自己的情绪。此外，在你运用释放法放掉自己的情感负担后，人们会更喜欢与你联系，给你任何你想要的。
5. Handling relationships. The art of relationship is, in a large part, skill in managing emotions in others. As you let go of your own emotional baggage and increase your empathy by releasing, you naturally develop an ability to relate better to others. As you learn that you are a master of your emotions, you intuitively know how to guide others toward their own emotional mastery. Also, as you use "The RELEASE Technique" and let go of your own emotional baggage, people will enjoy relating to you and giving you what you want.
现在，我来谈谈我自己吧。我生于纽约布朗克斯区，长于一个穷人家庭。尽管我们还没有穷到吃不上饭的程度，但是我那时认为富人住高层而穷人住地下室——我家就住在地下室里。作为一个年轻的男孩，我有很多很多要做的事，我非常积极上进。我勤奋读书，从纽约大学读到伦纳德北路斯特恩商学院。当我1957年大学毕业时，我父亲说如果我能每周挣100美元就非常了不起了。我注意到我的一些毕业的朋友都开始走向成功并挣大钱了，所以我跟我自己说，“我和他们一样聪明，他们能做到的我也能做到。”所以我开始向人生和商场发起了猛烈的进攻，就像“从我的路上滚开，我要得到我想要的，不然我就干掉你”一样。于是那时我成功攀上了人生的小小巅峰。 在那个时候我结了婚，有了一对双胞胎儿子，但是根本不能挤出时间和他们相处。我从广告业发家，很快就成为了雷姆科玩具（Remco Toys）的广告营销总监。在辉煌的几年过后，我开始了自己的商函业务——Telehouse有限公司，是业内第一家在电视上销售记录包裹的公司，在短期内取得了巨大的成功，百万美元滚滚而来。我与第一个妻子离婚并娶了另一个非常漂亮的女人。我在曼哈顿买了一幢十个房间的双层豪华公寓。我拥有了高级轿车与私人飞机，将生意做到了全世界并挣了好几百万美元。然而我依旧非常痛苦！
Now, let me tell you about myself. I was born in the Bronx. I grew up in a poor family. We never missed a meal, but I thought the rich man lived on the top floor and the poor man lived in the basement. And we lived in the basement. As a young boy, I had many, many jobs; I was very aggressive. I worked hard, put myself through New York University, The Leonard Stern School of Business, and when I graduated college in 1957, my father told me if I could make $100 a week, it would be a terrific accomplishment. I noticed some of my friends who graduated started to be successful and were making lots of money, so I said to myself, "I'm just as smart as they are. I can do that, too." So I went about life and business in a very aggressive way, like "Get outta my way--I'II take what I want--I'm gonna have what I want or I'll knock you down." And in time, I climbed my way to the top.
During that period I got married and had twin sons but never made any time for them. I started in the advertising business and quickly became the advertising and marketing director of Remco Toys. After a few very successful years, I started my own direct mail business, Telehouse, Inc., which was the first of its kind to sell record packages on television. The company quickly became very successful. We started to make millions of dollars. I divorced my first wife and married a beautiful, beautiful woman. I bought a ten-room duplex penthouse in Manhattan. I had the limousines, the planes--I had businesses all over the world making multi-millions. Yet, I was absolutely miserable!
这令我感到十分困惑。某天晚上我在回到我那位于曼哈顿的十居室豪华公寓时，读了时代杂志上我的专访的门房问候了我，他说，“克兰先生，您能住在我这栋楼里真是我好大的荣幸啊！为您领路我很愉快！”那是周五晚九点，我记得我从电梯里出来时是如此地纠结痛苦，以至于走过了头，走到了露台上，我花了两个小时思考是否要跳下去一了百了。那一天是我人生中第二重要的日子（第一重要的是跟随莱斯特学习释放法那天）。但是那个周五的晚上，我同样审视了自己的人生。我问自己到底在这个世界上做什么，我人生的意义是什么。结果是我自己既不知道自己在地球上做着什么样的事，也找不到人生中除了挣钱之外的意义。我是如此专注于挣钱以至于我都不允许自己去享用自己挣来的钱。这是件很令人困惑的事。那一晚，我决定去寻求一个答案。毕竟，我变得如此悲催是根本没有理由的：我有百万资产、美丽的妻子、非凡的遍布全球的生意、媒体的注意等等等等。但是我竟然还是如此痛苦！我对嗑药和酗酒没有任何兴趣。那些东西对我没有任何吸引力——感谢上帝我没有走上不归路。既然我还不想就这样跳下去结束自己的生命，我最好还是去为它寻找一个答案。 那个时候，我还不是很能接受精神病学的书籍，我对超觉静坐或瑜伽的态度也并不开放。那些天我十分封闭但还是不愿意结束自己的生命。所以我寻找答案的心也越发坚决，尽管我不知道那答案会是什么。那时我的妻子劝我去参加什么新世纪课程，我去了，我参加了好几个，想要结束我的痛苦，但是我还是找不到答案。我试了又试，就是找不到我想要的那个答案。我想要的，不过是脱离我的苦难。我发现我是如此的愤怒，如此的恐惧，我发现自己的行为是毁灭性的，而且不是很明智，但我也不知道该怎么办。我参加了那么多课程，没有一个告诉我该怎么做。我变得越来越泄气。我又参加了很多其他的课程，仍然没有任何效果。
It was quite confusing to me. One night I came home to my fabulous tenroom Manhattan penthouse apartment. Time magazine had written an article about me, and the doorman greeted me with, "Mr. Crane, what an honor to have you in my building. For me to take you up to your penthouse is my pleasure." This was a Friday night around 9 p.m. and I remember getting out of the elevator and being so unhappy and so miserable that I actually walked over to the terrace and for about two hours I contemplated jumping--ending it all. I call this the second greatest day of my life! (The first: learning "The RELEASE Technique" from Lester.) But that Friday evening I, too, examined my life. I asked myself what am I doing on the planet? What is life about? I observed that I did not know what I was doing on Earth, but for me life was only about making money. I was so focused on money that I did not even allow myself to spend much, enjoy much or do much with it. That was confusing. I decided that evening to find an answer. After all, I had no reason to be miserable: I had millions of dollars, a beautiful wife, a fabulous business, businesses all over the world, media attention, and so on and so forth. Still, I was miserable. I was not interested in drugs or drinking. These things had no appeal to me and thank God I never turned in that direction. Since I was not willing to jump and end it, I needed to find an answer.
At the time, I was not receptive to psychiatric work. I was not open to transcendental meditation or yoga. I was pretty closed in those days and yet I wasn't willing to jump. So I became determined to find an answer. What that answer was, I did not know. My wife at the time talked me into some New Age courses, which I took, but I still found no answer after taking a number of them and trying to put an end to my unhappiness. I tried and tried, but I did not have the answer that I wanted. All I really wanted was to get out of my misery. I discovered I was angry. I discovered I had fear. I discovered I was doing things that were destructive and not quite intelligent behavior, yet I didn't know what to do about it. None of the courses showed me what to do about it. I just became more and more frustrated. I then took some additional courses, but still to no avail.
1976年的一天，有个人来我的办公室推销一份邮购商品。我办公室的墙上有一些关于心灵成长或自我约束的有趣格言，那常常会引发一场关于我正在深入研究的东西和我正在寻找的答案的对话。那个推销员向我提起了“圣多纳释放法”。那真是深深引起了我的共鸣，于是我决定周末就去参加相关的课程。就在那个周末，我见到了莱斯特·利文森，那个我有幸与之相知22年的良师益友。我几乎每天都给他打电话，有时候一天打好几次。我与他游遍全国，深深为他的清晰明净、镇定自若和慷慨大方所折服。他同样是一位百万富翁，不过他看上去并不为此费太多心血。事实上，在我们刚结识的时候，他说“人们不应该相信我说的任何话。” 所以我在此向每一位阅读此书的读者声明：不要相信我说的任何话，只要去证实它就好了。
Then one day, in 1976, a man came into my office to sell me a mail order item. I had some interesting spiritual or self-discipline quotations on my office wall which often opened up a conversation of what I was into and the answers I was seeking. This salesman told me about "The RELEASE Technique". It really resonated with me, so I decided to take the course that very weekend. That same weekend, I met a man called Lester Levenson, my mentor, my teacher, who I was fortunate enough to know for twenty-two years. I spoke to him almost every day, many times during the day. I took trips with him around the country and was quite fascinated by his clarity, his calmness and his givingness. He, too, was a multi-millionaire, but didn't seem to work hard at all. In fact, early in our relationship he said, "One should never believe a word I say."
And I say that to all those reading this book: "Don't believe a word I say, but take it for checking."
这些是莱斯特告诉我的，去证实它。因为我告诉你的每一件事都是可证实的，如果你抓住机会自己去检验它，证明它。我会谈到一些你认为太“出格”的事，不过如果你想办法去证实，你会像我一样发现自己的真相。 没有人能通过别人的传授得到真相，他们必须自己去认识。一位教师能够给出的是方向，只有小学生才会全盘接受。所有的真相都是可以证实的。不要接受任何口耳相传的消息。人必须要为自己证实一切。
These are the words that Lester told me. Take it for checking. Everything that I'm going to present to you is provable if you take a chance and prove it and demonstrate it yourself. I will discuss some things you may consider "far out," but if you take it for checking, you'll discover your own truth as I did.
No one can be taught truth, each must realize truth by himself. A teacher can give direction and the pupil may take it. All truth is provable. Accept nothing on hearsay. Each must prove everything for himself.
莱斯特告诉我的第一件事就是，世界上压根儿没有病菌这种东西。哇！那真是个爆炸性宣言啊，因为那几天我正好得了感冒，打电话的时候还抽抽搭搭地。我什么病都有，溃疡啊偏头痛什么的。我曾经每天多次扯着嗓子大喊，所以得心脏病真是迟早的事儿。我有着符合上述状态的所有疾病，包括玫瑰热、花粉病，以及任何人类已知的过敏症。所以我决定用释放法来对付这些疾病。 然后，某天莱斯特告诉我，努力工作并非最终手段。我说“啥？”那时我已经每周工作7天，每天工作16个小时了。我挣了很多钱，但是非常不开心，而且对此非常困惑。莱斯特说，“如果努力工作跟挣钱有半点关系的话，那挖沟的大叔岂不是应该很有钱？”嗯，从某种角度来看是有道理的。那人应该怎么做呢？他向我展示了一些特别的技巧并给我留了一些释放法作业自己完成。莱斯特也将释放法戏称为“坐业”，因为你只要坐在家里，释放限定性的想法与感受，好事就会发生。这可真是个激进的主意，不过既然我对莱斯特本人有信心，而且我已经证明了释放法在我疾病方面的成效，我决定怀着对公司的关心试一试。于是我甚至取得了更大的成功。我发现用这些简单的方法我能变得更富有、更成功、更开心、更健康、更聪明、工作得更轻松，并且在生命中轻松简单地拥有丰盛。
The first thing Lester told me was: "There is no such thing as a germ." Wow! That was a tremendous statement because in those days I'd catch colds by just talking on the phone with a sniffler. I had it all: ulcers, migraine headaches. I used to scream at the top of my lungs ten times a day (a sure candidate for a heart attack), and I had all the illnesses to go along with that state, including rose fever, hay fever, and every allergy known to man. So I decided to use "The RELEASE Technique" on those very illnesses. Then one day Lester informed that working was not the ultimate thing to do. I said: "What?"(At the time, I was working seven days a week, sixteen hours a day. I was making lots of money, but I was very unhappy and very confused about it.) He said, "If hard work had anything to do with making money, a ditch digger should be rich!" Well, that kind of made sense, but what then should one do? He showed me some special techniques and gave me some "releasing" assignments to do by myself. Lester called this his "Butt" system: You sit at home on your butt and just by letting go of your limiting thoughts and feelings, great things happen. That was a radical idea, but since I had confidence in Lester and I had proved to myself that the Release Technique had worked on my illnesses, I decided to try it with regard to my company. I found even greater success. Idiscovered by using these simple techniques that I could get richer, more successful, happier, healthier, wiser, work easier, and have abundance in my life with ease and simplicity.
我将要展示给你的只是如何去做，非常简单，人人都能做。我们甚至将这个课程教给了5岁的孩子们，然后他们也运用得很好。为什么？因为我们人类有那种释放的本能。在接下来的篇章里，我将告诉你如何去做。首先，我们围绕着这个话题先随便聊聊。也许我会讨论一些让你感到不那么舒服的事 ，不过如果你释放完、搞清楚自己状况之后就会明白我的指导有多明确。再次声明：“不要相信我说的任何话——去证实它们就好了。”从经验中学习是最佳方式。 我会带你体验莱斯特让我体验过的每一个经历。这个方法会让你拥有无限的丰盛，你的工作会变得更简单更智能，疾病会消失无踪，人际关系会向好的方面发展，你生活的每一方面都会有提升。而这一切是如此简单。所以——放松吧，坐好，我们继续。
What I am about to show you is just how to do that yourself. It is easy. It is possible and anybody can do it. We have even taught this course to 5-year-olds and they use it successfully. Why? Because we all have a natural ability to let go. In the following pages, I am going to show you just how to do it. First, we are going to kind of walk around a little bit. Perhaps I will discuss something that might feel a little uncomfortable to you, but if you release and check it out, you will see the clarity of my illustration. Once again, "Don't believe a word I'm saying--take it for checking." Experience is the best way to learn.
I will guide you through this experience and give you everything that Lester gave me. By using this technique, you will have unlimited abundance, you will work easier and smarter, illnesses will disappear, relationships will get better. Everything in your world will just improve. It's that simple. So relax, sit back and we will continue.
现在，让我们谈谈人们都在追求什么，每个人在追寻什么，以及如何获得。 每个人都在寻求“没有悲伤的纯粹快乐”，或者内心的平和，不过多数人在他们的外在世界寻找它。他们希望能在某个人、某个东西上发现它，希望通过挣大钱或者夺大权来获得它，希望通过拥有巨额财产来拥有它。不幸的是，那样是永远不可能找到内心的平和的。验证一下，想一想某个位居高位的大人物，或身价万千的大富翁，他们有多幸福？有多满足？他们的内心真的平和吗？
Now let's talk about what people are looking for--what everyone is looking for--and how to get it. Everyone is looking for "happiness with no sorrow" or peace of mind, but most people are looking for this outside themselves. They are looking for it in someone, in some thing, in making money, being a big shot, having possessions. Unfortunately, it is impossible to find peace of mind that way. Take it for checking. Take a look at somebody who is powerful, who is monetarily successful. How happy are they? How satisfied are they? Do they really have peace of mind?
我们再看那些尝试从人际关系中获得幸福与宁静的人们。亲密关系能够带来内心的平和吗？验证一下，你自己是否拥有没有悲伤的纯粹快乐，内心的平和，而你又是在何处寻找它们。你是否在一个并不快乐、或者说相比之下不太快乐的人身上寻找？为了寻找宁静与幸福，你必须从心开始。通过释放你的限制，你会发现原来你早已是无限的了，你可以做任何你想做的事。只要你放下一切限制性的想法。 内心的平和意味着一个平静而不是躁动的内心。这就是为什么只有少数人能找到它。我们从外界寻找内心的平和，但是唯一能找到内心平和的地方就是平静的内心。一个人的内心越平静，他就会越强大。这就是我们要探索的。你会学到如何自己去完成这一切。
Let's take a look at those individuals who are trying to get happiness and peace of mind from a relationship. Does that relationship give peace of mind? Take a check and see if you have happiness with no sorrow, peace of mind, and where you are looking for it. Are you seeking it in a person who is unhappy or relatively unhappy? You must go inside yourself in order to find peace of mind and happiness. By unloading your limitations, you will discover that you are already unlimited and you can do anything you want. Just unload your limiting thoughts.
Peace of mind means a quiet mind, not a noisy mind. That is why only a few of us ever find it. We are looking for peace of mind outside ourselves and peace of mind can only be acquired by having a quiet mind. The more one quiets his or her mind, the more powerful one becomes. That is what we are going to explore. You will learn how to accomplish this yourself.
迄今为止，圣多纳释放法只是在少数小团体中口耳相传。已经有大概40000人习得了这一方法。在莱斯特教给我他那著名的“坐业”（坐着释放就能得到所想要的方法），那个检验自我潜意识，捋出自我潜意识清单并逐个突破的方法后，我开始教授释放法。这方法不需要做分析，我也不会激励你或者用巧妙的口号煽动你。我不会告诉你释放具体是如何完成的，也不会仅仅带你从莱斯特带我走的路过一遍。记住，你如果要从中受益，就得亲身体验！ 如果你只是理性地读这本书，你不会从中获得很多。然而，如果你真的去做了这些联系并体验释放的过程，你会发现人类历史上最不可思议的、惊天动地的宝藏，即一个解锁潜意识，调出心智清单，检视并破除你所不想要的的方法。它是如此含义隽永却平易近人。再次说明，不需要做分析。这个方法不需要你去分析过往的负面经历。毕竟，如果我手指里扎了一根小刺，我真心不关心我从哪里扎到的、如何扎到的、它有多大、什么颜色、或者谁把它扎向我等诸如此类的问题。我只是想尽快用镊子拔出来。释放法就能做到如此简便易行。
Until recently, The Release Technique was only available to people by word of mouth and in small groups. About forty thousand people have learned this technique. I started teaching this course after Lester taught me his famous "Butt" system, the method of sitting on one's butt and getting everything one wants by simply "releasing." A way of examining one's subconscious mind, calling up the menu of the subconscious mind and knocking it out. In no way is this analytical. I am not going to motivate you nor willi pump you with wonderful slogans. I will merely show you how releasing is done and gently guide you through it the same way Lester taught me. Remember, YOU must experience it in order to benefit from it.
If you read this material intellectually, you will not get much out of it. However, if you actually do the exercises and experience releasing, you will discover the most amazing, earth-shattering treasure in the history of mankind: A way to unlock your subconscious mind, call up the menu of your mind, examine what you don't want and knock it out--totally eliminate it. It is that simple, yet that profound! Once again, analysis is unnecessary. This method does not require analyzing past negative experiences. After all, if I have a splinter in my finger, I really don't care how I got it, why I got it, how big it is, what color it is or who gave it to me. I simply want to take tweezers and pull it out! The Release Technique allows you this Simplicity.
