這是一個值得我們認真觀察的可能性:每一個人都帶著「作爲自己要帶給這世界」之正確和完美的天賦,出生到地球。每一個人都是帶著「爲了要做他們來這裡要做所需知道的一切」來到他們的肉體人生。人生並不是一個在學習(learning)「你是誰」,而是在重新創造(recreating)「你是誰」的過程。
或許你會發覺,重新創造是一種選擇,一種有意識的選擇。學習只是隨著(being)這選擇決定而自然會產生的作為(doing)之一。
【人生是為了「學習」或為了「重新創造」?】
尼爾:爲什麽每個人不是生下來就聰明伶俐(born smart)?
我要告訴你一個偉大的秘密。每一個人都「是」生下來就「聰明伶俐」的。每一個人都是帶著「爲了要做他們來這裡要做所需知道的一切」來到他們的肉體人生。但是,每個人並非來做同樣的事。
有些靈魂來到他們的肉身要做某一件事,有些則做另一件事。所以,在學校的某些學科,有些人仿佛「較聰明」或「較機靈」,而其他人仿佛在其他學科較行,或擁有全然不同的天賦。
每一個人都帶著「作爲他們自己要帶給這世界」之正確和完美的天賦。因而,你們沒有要來學習的東西。你們只是來「憶起」你們一直都已知道的東西。
沒有人需要教嬰兒如何去信任,沒有人需要教孩子如何去愛。對於你們族類的新生兒,這些事是自然來到的。他們都帶著這些理解來的。
人生並不是一個發現的過程,它是一個創造的過程。你並不是在學習 (learning)「你是誰」,你是藉由「憶起所有你一直都知道的,並選擇現在你希望體驗你真正的自己 (Self) 的哪個面向」,在重新創造 (recreating)「你是誰」。

Neale: How come everyone wasn’t born smart?
I want to tell you a great secret.
Everyone IS born “smart.” Everyone comes to their physical life knowing everything they need to know to do exactly what they came here to do.
But not everyone came here to do the same thing.
Some souls came to their body to do one thing, and some to do another. So some seem to be “brighter” or “smarter” in certain subjects in school, and others seem to do better in other subjects, or have different gifts altogether.
Everyone comes with the right and perfect gift to give to be themselves. And so, you have nothing to learn. You remember what you have always known.
No one has to teach a baby how to trust. No one has to teach a child how to love. To the newborn of your species, these things come naturally.
They bring this understanding with them.
Life is not a process of discovery. It is a process of creation. You are not learning Who You Are, you are recreating Who You Are, by remembering all that you have always known, and choosing what you now wish to experience of your Self.
