Chapter 19. How to Use Your Subconscious Mind to Remove Fear

第十九章 如何运用你的潜意识来消除恐惧（节选）

1. Do the thing you are afraid to do, and the death of fear is certain. If you say to yourself with perfect confidence and faith, “I am going to master this fear,” and you will.

1. 去做你害怕去做的事，那么，可以肯定的，你的恐惧感会消失。如果你十分坚信地对我自己说，“我要掌控这种恐惧感，”那么，你就能做到。

2. Fear is a negative thought in your mind. Supplant it with a constructive thought. Fear has killed millions. Confidence is greater than fear. Nothing is more powerful than faith in God and the good.

2. 恐惧其实是你意识中一个消极的想法。用一个积极的想法换掉它吧。恐惧毁了百万人的生活。自信比恐惧更强大。世上更强大的是对上帝和真善美的信仰。

3. Fear is a person’s greatest enemy. It is behind failure, sickness, and bad human relations. Love casts out fear. Love is an emotional attachment to the good things of life. Fall in love with honesty, integrity, justice, good will, and success. Live in the joyous expectancy of the best, and invariably the best will come to you.

3. 恐惧是人的头号强敌。是恐惧造成了失败、疾病和不良的人际关系。爱驱走恐惧。爱是一种对生命中美妙事物的情感依恋。你应该爱上诚实、正直、公正、善意和成功。充满快乐地期待最好的事发生在你的身上，那么，这些事总会成真。

4. Counteract the fear suggestions with the opposite, such as “I sing beautifully; I am poised, serene, and calm.” It will pay fabulous dividends.

4. 打消恐惧的想法，你可以向心理暗示相反的想法，例如，“我唱得太好听了；我心境泰然、心如止水、心平气和。”通过这样你会收到难以置信的效果。

5. Fear is behind suggestive amnesia that strikes during examination time. You can overcome this by affirming frequently, “I have a perfect memory for everything I need to know,” imagine a friend congratulating you on your brilliant success on the examination. Persevere and you will win.

5. 是恐惧导致了你在考试时忽然发作“提示性失忆”。想要克服这个问题，你可以不断重复地肯定对自己说，“我对我需要知道的所有事都记得清清楚楚”。想象一幅画片——你的一位朋友祝贺你获得了绝妙的考试成绩。坚持这么做，你将会通过考试。

6. If you are afraid to cross water, swim. In your imagination swim freely, joyously. Project yourself into the water mentally. Feel the chill and thrill of swimming across the pool. Make it vivid. As you do this subjectively, you will be compelled to go into the water and conquer it. This is the law of your mind.

6. 如果你害怕渡河，游泳游过去。在你的脑海中快活地自由遨游。在内心把自己投入水中。感受游泳渡过游泳池的凉意和兴奋感。使其历历在目。当你主观地在心中这么想时，你会感到有一种强迫的力量去促使你投身于水中，征服它。这就是你意识的运作规律。

7. If you are afraid of closed places, such as elevators, mentally ride in an elevator while sincerely blessing all its parts and functions. You will be amazed how quickly the fear will be dissipated.

7. 如果你对封闭的环境感到恐惧，例如，在电梯中。你可以在心中想象自己位于一座电梯中，同时真诚地为电梯的所有部件和功能祈福。你会惊奇地感到，这种恐惧这么快就消失了。

8. You were born with only two fears, the fear of falling and the fear of noise. All your other fears were acquired. Get rid of them.

8. 你生来身上只对两件事感到恐惧，对坠落的恐惧，对噪音的恐惧。其它的恐惧是后天习得的。摆脱它们。

9. Normal fear is good. Abnormal fear is very bad and destructive. To constantly indulge in fear thoughts results in abnormal fear, obsessions, and complexes. To fear something persistently causes a sense of panic and terror.

9. 正常的恐惧是无害的。不正常的恐惧是有害的、消极的。经常性地沉湎于恐惧的想法中，会导致不正常的恐惧、强迫症、变态心理。经常性地害怕某个事物会导致恐慌和惊骇。

10. You can overcome abnormal fear when you know the power of your subconscious mind can change conditions and bring to pass the cherished desires of your heart. Give your immediate attention and devotion to your desire which is the opposite of your fear. This is the love that casts out fear.

10. 一旦你了解到你潜意识的力量可以改变环境，可以使你心中所怀的祈望成真，你就可以克服不正常的恐惧。立即将你的全部注意力投入到你的祈望上，它就是你恐惧的对立面。它就是驱走恐惧的爱。

11. If you are afraid of failure, give attention to success. If you are afraid of sickness, dwell on your perfect health. If you are afraid of an accident, dwell on the guidance and protection of God. If you are afraid of death, dwell on Eternal Life. God is Life, and that is your life now.

11. 如果你担心失败，把注意力关注在成功上。如果你担心患病，心中不断想像完美的健康。如果你担心会出事故，寄希望于上帝的指引和保护。如果你担心死亡，把永生想个一万遍。上帝就是你的生活，而现在他在保佑着你。

12. The great law of substitution is the answer to fear. Whatever you fear has its solution in the form of your desire. If you are sick, you desire health. If you are in the prison of fear, you desire freedom. Expect the good. Mentally concentrate on the good, and know that your subconscious mind answers you always. It never fails.

12. 置换的伟大的法则就是解决恐惧的答案。不论你害怕什么，你都可以通过祈求什么来克服它。如果你生病了，祈求健康。如果你处身于恐惧的牢笼里，你应该祈求打破这个牢笼。往好的方面去期望。在心中把注意力集中到好的事物上，知道这一点，你的潜意识会一直为你解决问题，它从来没让你失望过。

13. The things you fear do not really exist except as thoughts in your mind. Thoughts are creative. This is why Job said; the thing I feared has come upon me. Think good and good follows.

13. 你害怕的事物其实并不存在，它们只存在于你的意识的想法中。而想法是有创意无限的。这就是为何约伯会说，“你越害怕某事就越会发生在你身上”。你往好处想问题，好事就会降临到你头上。

14. Look at your fears; hold them up to the light of reason. Learn to laugh at your fears. That is the best medicine. Nothing can disturb you but your own thought. The suggestions, statements, or threats of other persons have no power. The power is within you, and when your thoughts are focused on that which is good, then God’s power is with your thoughts of good.

14. 正视你的恐惧，将它们放在理智的灯光下审视。学着去漠视你的恐惧。这是更好的克服方法。只有你自己的想法可以困扰你。其他人的闲言碎语、评论、威胁构不成任何影响。力量就在你心中，当你的想法关注在真善美之上时，上帝的力量就会支持你这些美好的想法。

15. There is only one Creative Power, and It moves as harmony. There are no divisions of quarrels in it. Its source is Love. This is why God’s power is with your thoughts of good.

15. 世上只存在一种创造性力量，它和谐地运作着。在其中并无分歧和争议。爱是其源泉。这就是为何上帝的力量支持你美好的想法。
