"How shall I experience my oneness with creation?"

“如何修炼可达天人合一境界？”

"By listening," said the Master.

师答曰：“听之，”

"And how am I to listen?"

“敢问其方？”

"Become an ear that gives heed to every single thing the universe is saying. The moment you hear something you yourself are saying, stop.'

“冥心静听——万籁俱缘生，窅然喧中寂”

译者注：窅（yǎo）然 ——指幽深遥远的样子.

此句英文直译的意思是，把自己变成耳朵去留意倾听万物的声音。一旦听自己的内在之声，即到达人天合一境界。

 我觉得柳宗元的这两句，无论意思和意境，都符合原文之意，故直接引用了。
