“新冠肺炎病毒/科維德-19病毒疫情真正教訓了人們什麼？”

我堅信，每一件事情發生的背後都有一個“精神力量”的目標，不管這是我們認為是好的還是壞的。

當我經過沉思默想，我想和大家分享我所感受到的這新冠肺炎病毒疫情對我們的真正啟示：

1)它提醒我們，眾生是平等的，無論我們的文化、宗教、職業、經濟狀況或你是多麼有名有聲，眾生都是平等的。 疾病對我們一視同仁，也許我們可以這樣說。 如果你不相信的說話，你問一問大明星湯姆·漢克斯。

2)它提醒我們，我們在世上其實都是聯繫在一起的，影響一個人的東西對另一個人也會有影響。 它提醒我們，人們所建立的邊界是虛假的，是沒有什麼意義的，病毒不需要護照。 它提醒我們，煩惱它不單是在短時間內影響我們，人們活在這個世界上，一生都是在煩惱中度過的。

3)它提醒我們，我們的健康是多麼寶貴，人們如何忽視它的寶貴，平時通過進食沒有營養價值的商業食品和飲用被化學物質污染又污染的飲料。 如果我們都不照顧我們的健康，當然會生病。

4)它提醒我們生命是多麼的短暫，提醒人們最重要的就是互相幫助，特別是對那些年老或生病的人的幫助。 我們人生不是只會去搶買衛生紙。

5)它提醒我們，我們的社會已經變得多麼唯物主義，當我們遇到困難時，我們只會記著及找辦法攫奪我們需要的必需品（食物、水、藥品），跟我們平時不必要地去尋取超越實際價值的奢侈品的行為相反。

6)它提醒我們，我們的家庭和家庭生活是多麼重要，我們大多時候都忽視了。 它迫使我們回到我們的窩裡，讓我們重建及穩固我們的“家”

7)它提醒我們，我們真正的工作不是我們的職業職位，而是我們所應做的，而不是勉強出來所做的。

我們真正的工作是人與人之間互相照顧，互相保護，互惠互利。
8)它提醒我們要控制自我，自省。 它提醒我們，無論我們認為自己多麼偉大，或者別人認為我們多麼偉大，

一個疫病毒便會使人們的世界頓時陷入停滯。

9)它提醒我們，自由意志的力量是掌握在我們自己手中。 我們可以選擇相互合作和幫助，分享，給予，幫助和支持，或者我們可以選擇自私， 囤積，自己只顧自己的個人利益! 的確，顯露自己本來正面本色是艱難的。

10)它提醒我們，我們可以選擇耐心，也可以選擇恐慌。 我們可以這樣理解，這種情況在歷史上已經發生過很多次，而且一定會過去，或者我們可以那樣的恐慌和認為這是世界末日，結果，這想法只會給自己造成更多的傷害而完全沒有好處。

11)它提醒我們，這既可以是結束，也可以是新的開始。 這可能是一個反思和理解的時刻，我們從錯誤中吸取教訓，這也是一個新的偱環的開始，直到我們最終吸取我們應該得到的東西。

12)它提醒我們這個地球真的生病了。 它提醒我們，我們需要關注砍伐森林的速度，就像我們急切關注在超市貨架廁紙消失的速度一樣。 我們生病了，因為我們的家生病了..
13)它提醒我們，在每一次困難之後，總是有好事的。 生命是週期性的，這只是這個偉大週期中的一個階段。 我們不必驚慌，這總會過去的。

14)雖然許多人認為新冠肺炎/科維德-19病毒是一場巨大的災難，但我更喜歡把它看作是一個“偉大的校對者*

這疫情是“一些精神力量”派它來提醒我們，我們似乎忘記了一些做人的重要的教訓，人們要或不要學習這些教訓，在於人們自己。

原文如下:

*Beautiful message from Bill Gates*

*What is the Corona/ Covid-19 Virus Really Teaching us?*

I’m a strong believer that there is a spiritual purpose behind everything that happens, whether that is what we perceive as being good or being bad.

As I meditate upon this, I want to share with you what I feel the Corona/ Covid-19 virus is really doing to us:

1) It is reminding us that we are all equal, regardless of our culture, religion, occupation, financial situation or how famous we are. This disease treats us all equally, perhaps we should to. If you don’t believe me,
just ask Tom Hanks.

2) It is reminding us that we are all connected and something that affects one person has an effect on another. It is reminding us that the false borders that we have put up have little value as this virus does not need a passport. It is reminding us, by oppressing us for a short time, of those in this world whose whole life is spent in oppression.

3) It is reminding us of how precious our health is and how we have moved to neglect it through eating nutrient poor manufactured food and drinking water that is contaminated with chemicals upon chemicals. If we don’t look after our health, we will, of course, get sick.

4) It is reminding us of the shortness of life and of what is most important for us to do, which is to help each other, especially those who are old or sick. Our purpose is not to buy toilet roll.

5) It is reminding us of how materialistic our society has become and how, when in times of difficulty, we remember that it’s the essentials that we need (food, water, medicine)
as opposed to the luxuries that we sometimes unnecessarily give value to.

6) It is reminding us of how important our family and home life is and how much we have neglected this. It is forcing us back into our houses so we can rebuild them into our home and
to strengthen our family unit.

7) It is reminding us that our true work is not our job, that is what we do, not what we were created to do.
Our true work is to look after each other, to protect each other and to be of benefit to one another.

8) It is reminding us to keep our egos in check. It is reminding us that no matter how great we think we are or how great others think we are,
a virus can bring our world to a standstill.

9) It is reminding us that the power of freewill is in our hands. We can choose to cooperate and help each other, to share, to give, to help and to support each other or we can choose to be selfish, to hoard, to look after
only our self. Indeed, it is difficulties that bring out our true colors.

10) It is reminding us that we can be patient, or we can panic. We can either understand that this type of situation has happened many times before in history and will pass, or we can panic and see it as the end of the world and, consequently, cause ourselves more harm than good.

11) It is reminding us that this can either be an end or a new beginning. This can be a time of reflection and understanding, where we learn from our mistakes, or it can be the start of a cycle which will continue until we finally learn the lesson we are meant to.

12) It is reminding us that this Earth is sick. It is reminding us that we need to look at the rate of deforestation just as urgently as we look at the speed at which toilet rolls are disappearing off of shelves. We are sick because our home is sick.

13) It is reminding us that after every difficulty, there is always ease. Life is cyclical, and this is just a phase in this great cycle. We do not need to panic; this too shall pass.

14) Whereas many see the Corona/ Covid-19 virus as a great disaster, I prefer to see it as a *great corrector*

It is sent to remind us of the important lessons that we seem to have forgotten and it is up to us if we will learn them or not.
