在纷繁复杂的世界中，生活哲学犹如灯塔，指引着我们在尘世中探寻生命的真谛。本期，我们将聚焦“探索顶级生活哲学：沉静、简约与孤独的极致追求”，一同走进心灵的宁静之地，感受简约生活的智慧与力量。

In a world filled with complexity, the philosophy of life is like a lighthouse, guiding us to seek the true meaning of life in the mundane world. In this issue, we will focus on "Exploring the Ultimate Philosophy of Life: The Purity of Simplicity and the Pursuit of Solitude," and together, we will delve into the tranquil realm of the soul, experiencing the wisdom and power of a simple life.

1. 独孤，是生命的一种孤独感，求败，是不想去争名夺利，只想在平凡的生活里，过好普通人的一生。

1. Du Yufu represents a sense of loneliness in life, while seeking defeat implies a reluctance to compete for fame and wealth. It is about desiring to live a fulfilling life as an ordinary person in the mundane aspects of life.

2. 如果放纵欲望的马车横冲直撞，一定会粉身碎骨，万劫不复。我们必须管控自己的欲望，虽然不能消灭欲望，但可以清心寡欲，满足基本的生理需要，千万不能沉沦于享乐主义的泥潭之中。

2. If the carriage driven by indulgent desires rushes headlong, it will certainly be smashed to pieces, leading to eternal ruin. We must control our own desires. Although we cannot extinguish desires, we can cultivate a tranquil and modest mind, satisfy our basic physiological needs, and absolutely must not sink into the quagmire of hedonism.

3. 孔子的学生问他：为什么不喜欢说话呢？孔子回答：天说话了吗？日月星辰一样运行不紊，一年四季一样循环不息，大地万物一样有序生长。天需要说话吗？

3. Confucius's student asked him, "Why do you dislike talking?" Confucius replied, "Has heaven spoken? The sun, the moon, and the stars all move in harmony, and the four seasons change in an endless cycle. The earth and all living things grow in order. Does heaven need to speak?"

4. 人生短短几十年，功名利禄都是尘土，荣华富贵过眼云烟，不必为了身外之物，把自己搞得苦不堪言，不要为了迎合别人的眼光和看法，而让自己生活在夹缝之中。

4. Life is short, only a few decades, and fame and fortune are all dust. Glory and wealth are like fleeting clouds and mist. There is no need to endure suffering for things outside oneself, and there is no need to live in a state of compromise to cater to others' eyes and opinions.

5. 天从来都是默默无言，却可以把自己的角色扮演的特别好。

5. The sky has always been silent, yet it can play its role exceptionally well.

6. 人就是一团欲望，当欲望得不到满足，就会感到痛苦，当欲望得到了满足，就会感到空虚，从而滋生成更大的欲望。

6. Humans are a bundle of desires. When desires are not satisfied, they lead to suffering; when they are satisfied, they result in emptiness, thereby breeding even greater desires.

7. 戴建业教授说：“你普通到进入人群根本就找不出来。你普通到喜怒哀思，生老病死都无人问津。可这就是你，你依附这个世界而活，做什么，去那里，力量卑微，不足说道。可这就是所谓的见自己吧。”

Professor Dai Jianye said, "You are so ordinary that you can't be found in a crowd. Your ordinary nature extends to your emotions of joy and sorrow, as well as the cycles of life, old age, illness, and death, which no one cares about. But that's who you are, living in dependence on this world, doing whatever, going wherever, with a meager strength, unworthy of mention. That's what it means to see oneself."

8. 我们曾经多么想要叱咤风云，站在金字塔的顶端俯瞰世界，后来才发现，不是谁都可以成功，绝大多数人拼尽全力也只能维持一日三餐，全力以赴，也只能保证衣食冷暖。没人在乎我们的存在，没人关心我们的生活，命运也不会把馅饼砸在我们的头上，我们只能调整好自己的心态，接受生命孤独的实质，接受一事无成的自己，在似水流年的光阴里，过柴米油盐的日子。

8. How much we once wanted to dominate the world, standing at the top of the pyramid to overlook the world, only to find out later that not everyone can achieve success; the vast majority of people, even with all their efforts, can only maintain three meals a day, and with all-out efforts, can only ensure the basics of food and clothing and warmth. No one cares about our existence, no one is concerned about our lives, and destiny will not drop a cake on our heads. We can only adjust our mindset, accept the essence of life's solitude, accept ourselves for being unsuccessful, and live a life of everyday trivialities in the flowing years.

9. 我们不要通过说话的方式来刷存在感，更不要放纵自己的分享欲和表达欲，关起门来，过自己的小日子，不需要别人来认可自己，不需要别人高看自己一眼。

9. We should not seek to assert our presence through talking, nor should we indulge our desire to share and express. Close the door and live our own little life. We don't need others to acknowledge us, nor do we need others to look up to us.

10. 欲望会从横向扩张，也会从纵向深入，像一棵大树的根须一样，盘根错节，错综复杂，紧紧勒住你的生命，让你动弹不得，痛苦不安。

10. Desires will expand horizontally and delve vertically, like the roots of a large tree, entangled and intricate, tightly gripping your life, leaving you unable to move and filled with distress and unease.

11. 饥饿的时候，你只想吃一顿饱饭，吃饱了，你就想吃一顿美食，有美食了，你就惦记着各种各样的美食，还会横向蔓延出各种各样的欲望，比如性欲，物欲，权力欲。

11. When you are hungry, you only want a full meal. Once you are full, you crave for a gourmet meal. With gourmet food, you start thinking about all sorts of delicious dishes. It can also spread out into various desires, such as sexual desire, material desires, and power desires.

12. 最顶级的活法，就是沉默寡言，清心寡欲，独孤求败。

12. The highest way of living is to be reserved and speak little, to have a pure heart and few desires, and to seek defeat alone.

13. 我们用两年的时间去说话，却要用一生学闭嘴。

13. We spend two years in talking, yet it takes a lifetime to learn to be silent.

14. 养生莫过于养心，养心莫过于寡欲。

14. The best way to maintain health is to cultivate the heart, and the best way to cultivate the heart is to have few desires.

15. 我们曾如此期待别人的认可，后来才发现，世界是自己的，和其他人毫无关系。

15. We had so eagerly awaited others' recognition, only to later realize that the world is our own, having nothing to do with others.
