问题    Defining the meaning of "happiness" is a perplexing proposition; the best one can do is to try to set some extremes to the idea and then work towards the middle. To think of happiness as achieving superiority over others, living in a mansion made of marble, having a wardrobe with hundreds of outfits, will do to set the greedy extreme. To think of happiness as the joy of a holy man of India will do to set the spiritual extreme. He sits completely still, contemplating the nature of reality, free even of his own body. If admirers bring him food, he eats it; if not, he starves. Why be concerned? What is physical is trivial to him. To contemplate is his joy and he achieves complete mental focus through an incredibly demanding discipline, the accomplishment of which is itself a joy to him.

答案 对“幸福”的含义作出明确的界定,这个要求令人难以把握。最恰当的做法就是,先给这个观点划定极限,而后取其中庸。如果把幸福看成是优人一等,那么身居大理石豪宅,藏百服于橱间,可谓贪婪。如果把幸福理解为印度圣人的愉悦,可渭脱俗之极。他一动不动地坐在那里,冥思存在的本质,甚至达到了忘我的境地。有仰慕者递上食物,他便吃;没有;他便不吃。有形的东西在他眼里微不足道,静思就是他的愉快,通过极其微妙的自我调整,他达到了意念的高度人定,如此境界已然令他喜不自禁了。
