「大概是在淨化吧」，我跟自己這麼說。於是我很認真地凝視字母 Tav ת 。它是希伯來文中的最後一個字母， 我渴望能透過這個字母更快速地看見自己的議題，盡快終結厄運和導正混亂。
又過了很多天，也就是又暴怒了很多天，我開始注意到 Resh ר 的意義。這個在赫密士卡巴拉（Qabalah）中與塔羅中太陽牌相呼應的字母，其實正幫助我從另一個視角看待混亂；彷彿即便是災厄、負能量，神聖也能將之回收、用以促成正向的改變。
體悟到這點，整體狀態才慢慢恢復、慢慢感受到這些混亂之中的善意。下回選到這個神之名時，除了豐盛外，更應該會是啟發我換個視角觀察事物、看見隱藏在困境之中的良善，以及恢復信任感的神之名吧。
而關於暴怒與轉化這樣的主題，奧娜老師介紹的神之名是 Lamed Aleph Vav ל א ו ，期待新體驗啊～一起來看看老師的介紹吧：
Many spiritual teachers, both in Judaism and in other religions, claim that the ego is what keeps us away from our higher spiritual selves and from the fulfillment of our purpose in life.
許多靈性教學者，猶太或其他宗教，都聲稱小我（ego）讓我們遠離更高靈性自我，也阻止我們實踐生命目的。
Is this completely true?
Do we have to give up the ego?
Is this even possible?
這是完全正確的嗎？
我們需要捨棄小我嗎？
這是有可能的嗎？
Our ego is essential for our existence:
it protects the body and mind and makes sure that we get what we need for survival. It anchors us here in material life. It helps us get up in the morning, get organized and go to work, maintain our livelihood and health, protect ourselves, and through the ego, we learn to define ourselves at the level of emotions and thoughts. The ego cannot be ignored or dismissed.
小我對我們的生活是必要的：
它保護我們的身心，確保我們得到生存所需品。它幫助我們落定在這物質生活中。它幫助我們在早上起床、整頓好去工作、保有生計與健康、保護自己，也是透過小我，我們得以認識自身情感與思維的特色。小我不應該被忽略或打發。
At the same time - the ego may imprison us in the material dimension and does not allow us to rise above it. When we remain locked in the limited perception of the ego, we disconnect from the voice of the soul and the channels of abundance that connect us to the spiritual worlds, and then - we may suffer from confinement and reduction.
同時 ─ 小我可能將我們禁錮在物質維度，禁止我們超脫它。當我們持續被小我受限的感知封鎖，我們與靈魂的聲音、豐盛的管道失去連結，無法銜接靈性世界，於是 ─ 我們苦於限制和縮減。
The ego has many guises and is expressed in almost every area of our lives. In fact - the ego may enslave us and make us unconscious.
小我有許多偽裝，幾乎在我們生活中的每個領域運作著。事實上 ─ 小我可能會奴隸我們，使我們變得無所覺知。
When we are angry, jealous, hating, offended, depressed or resentful, we allow the ego to lead us to dark places where we may be harmed. The ego is the one that causes us to be in constant competition, in a mad race after achieving recognition and admiration, to prove superiority, to be critical and judgmental. It is the voice who tells us that we have not done enough, that we are not worthy, and pushes us to self-exhaustion driven by the urge to prove our superiority.
當我們感到憤怒、忌妒、憎恨、被冒犯、憂鬱或怨懟，我們允許小我帶領我們走到蒙蔽之處、走到會讓我們受傷的情境中。小我導致我們持續地競爭，陷入角逐認可與欽佩的瘋狂競賽中，為了證明優越也變得嚴苛和充滿批判。就是這聲音告訴我們「做得不夠」、「我們不配」，這股展現優越的動力，將我們推向自我消耗。
Many of the behaviors that arise from the ego cause us pain, and this pain can be healed by changing consciousness. The letter combination Lamed-Aleph-Vav (ל.א.ו) and from the 72 Names of God helps us to free ourselves from the shackles of the ego by shifting our thought patterns. (Undergoing transformation).
許多源於小我的行徑造成我們受苦，而這樣的痛苦會因改變意識而被療育。72 神之名中的 Lamed Aleph Vav ל א ו 幫助我們改變思維模式（經歷改變），從而擺脫小我的枷鎖。
When we come to know what the ego is doing to us, we can weaken its power (not eliminate it...) and free ourselves from all the burden it puts on us. Once we recognize our ego in action and curb it, we will feel free to be who we really are: unique souls, bound in an eternal bond to the Higher Light.
當我們開始了解小我對我們所做的一切，我們能弱化它的權力（不是消除，…），並擺脫所有加諸於我們的束縛。一旦我們認出正在運作中的小我並有所節制，我們將感到能自在做自己：獨特的靈魂，與較高的光永恆鍵結著。
