关于人类自己，我们有着太多的好奇。为什么人会有欲望？是什么动机促使我们挑战这样或是那样的困难？动机总是一个一个，好像无休无止，自我实现真的可以被满足吗？甚至，我们还会想知道，我们可以成为什么，我们想要成为什么？      这些对自我行为与心理的探索，对内在人性的疑问和剖析，在这本《动机与人格》里已经行了充分的表述。当代伟大的心理学家、人本心理学的奠基人马斯洛在书中提出了许多精彩的观，详细探讨了自我实现这个概念，创造性地提出了人本心理学科学观的理论、需要层次论、元动机理论、心理治疗理论、高峰体验理论等重要观，以解答我们对人性的疑问，帮助我们从心理动机的角度，了解个人自我实现的需求。      实现内在动机的关键，在于认清内心自我实现的需求，抵御外部力量的裹挟。简单来说，就是只要你想，你就可以活出你自己想要成为的样子。

Even if there is a realm beyond mortality, would finding it improve our lives on earthWhat use is Spirit to a troubled worldDo prayer and meditation workAs a young man in search of love and a purpose to live for, the author could not fit within the world he found. Longing to be useful but unwilling to conform, he went out to South America. It wasn’t so easy. Alone on a mountainside one day, an inner voice said, ‘To make whole, be whole’. This was a turning point. He realised that, before being able to help others, he first had to work on himself. Once back in England, he found a method of meditation. Love of nature led him to become one of the first organic farmers but, when asked what he really wanted in life, he answered ‘God’. He’d been schooled in the Christian faith but was not at this time attracted to the Church. Meditation proved an ideal accompaniment as further adventures took him to Africa and, in particular, the desert. Later, at a low ebb in the USA, he ‘met Jesus’, which brought his practice of meditation and Christianity together. At the age of 51, he re-entered university to study Russian prior to visiting his mother’s homeland for the first time in 1991. This led to several years living in Russia, where he realised the similarity between his own practice and traditional Orthodox ‘prayer of the heart’. The book is based on notes of the author’s unfolding spiritual experience, which taught him that the wholeness he sought is actually – Spirit. How is it attainedWith many encouraging examples he shows how, with patient perseverance, the grip of the ego with all the restrictive unhappiness it brings, can be released. Being then more open to the influence of Grace, we may come to discover the Kingdom of God – our original, spiritual and perfect home. Dear John, ‘I hope you won’t mind my addressing you by your Christian name but having read your book twice as well as highlighting many paragraphs to study, I feel you are a dear friend. I am writing to say that your profound insights are enormously encouraging, an awakening, a wonderful inspiration for me, and I feel so fortunate to have found them. Your experiences in Spirit are conveyed so clearly and simply ‘ I find them truly uplifting. Every day I read some pages and always seem to find something new. I feel extremely grateful that you chose to write of your experience ‘ your legacy is to inspire countless other people, and to enrich their lives as you have mine.’ ML, 2011 Dear Mr Butler, ‘I am over half-way through your book ‘Wonders of Spiritual Unfoldment’ and feel I would like to express my gratitude to you for helping me gain clarity in the process of awakening. It is difficult to express in words the way your writings from personal experience have helped crystallise my sense of ‘Being’ in Reality. Your notes on waking from the dream or illusion we mistake for life and the sense of non-attachment to the world this engenders ‘ greatly assist me in releasing my conditioned perception. It is wonderful to find that someone living so near me, geographically, can write with such clarity and, knowing that you are here in the flesh confirming the truth of the possibility of waking up, has been a great affirmation to me and is supporting me in my own journey of awaking or coming home. Thank you so much.’ L, 2011 ‘This is a moving, honest ‘ and long ‘ spiritual autobiography, interestingly given in two voices: contemporary notebooks interlaced with present day ruminations. Butler met the meditation early and it colours his early days of self-sustaining farming after Cambridge, and his many adventures described in detail and with compassion in South America, Africa (sharing keenness of hunger and the haunting splendour of the night skies) and India, culminating in coming ‘home’ to his core way in the Russia of his mother and its Christian orthodoxy. It was love that led him through the labyrinth of his life ‘ a path we all recognise. As he says, ‘to surrender myself and let the spirit act.’ Throughout it is his honesty which makes the book valid for us. His spiritual insights have all been gained through the experience of this varied life which he seems to have accepted with the innocence and enthusiasm of a child. His way is our way. It is a book of vivid de*ion and some very helpful insights.’ Contact 55 – Summer 2011

LITTLE ELISA:?“A Time Traveler Story”??“..There will always be a missing piece in life. It could be either something that is left undone or someone who you could not be able to come together with.

《卡拉马佐夫兄弟》是俄国作家陀思妥耶夫斯基的*之作，也是世界文学*伟大的长篇小说之一。 小说由一桩真实的弑父案改编，围绕老卡拉马佐夫与他的三个儿子——德米特里、伊万、阿辽沙，以及私生子斯乜尔加科夫之间的激烈冲突展开。 老卡拉马佐夫荒淫贪婪，占有了妻子留给孩子们的遗产，又与长子德米特里为争夺风流女子格露莘卡而反目成仇。某夜，德米特里在狂怒中闯入父亲家中，将其击伤后仓皇逃离。而真正的凶手——躲在暗处的私生子斯乜尔加科夫，在"一切皆允许"的思想驱使下，残忍地杀害了老卡拉马佐夫。由此引发了一桩扑朔迷离的血案与一场震撼人心的法庭审判。 小说表面是一桩弑父案，深层则是一场关于信仰、理性、自由意志与道德的灵魂角力。三兄弟分别代表了人性的不同维度：德米特里是情欲与冲动的化身，伊万是理性与质疑的代言人，阿辽沙则是信仰与仁爱的象征。弗洛伊德曾盛赞此书为"*伟大的小说"。
