財(cái)富精英勵(lì)志演講 第82期:計(jì)算讓生命有意義的事情(6)

[00:00:14]Why don't we care more about gross national happiness?" Now, in essence, the king was asking us to consider an alternative definition of success, 為什么我們不多關(guān)注一下一個(gè)國家國民的快樂呢？”現(xiàn)在，從本質(zhì)上來說，這位國王是在讓我們?nèi)タ紤]對成功的另外一種定義這是就是GNH, [00:09:40]what has come to be known as GNH, or gross national happiness. 國民幸?？傊? [00:14:21]Most world leaders didn't take notice, and those that did thought this was just "Buddhist economics." 這個(gè)世界上的多少領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者對此并不關(guān)心那些有考慮過這些的人認(rèn)為這些只是“佛教經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)” [00:20:21]But the king was serious. This was a notable moment, because this was the first time a world leader in almost 200 years had suggested that intangible of happiness -- 但是那位國王是認(rèn)真的這其實(shí)是一個(gè)值得關(guān)注的時(shí)刻，因?yàn)檫@是近兩百年來第一次有一個(gè)世界的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者提出這種不可見的快樂 [00:32:30]that leader 200 years ago, Thomas Jefferson with the Declaration of Independence -- ——再次提出，200年前湯馬斯.杰佛遜在他的獨(dú)立宣言中 [00:37:11]200 years later, this king was suggesting that intangible of happiness is something that we should measure, 200年之后這位國王提出了這種無形的快樂是我們應(yīng)該衡量的， [00:43:36]and it's something we should actually value as government officials. 也是作為政府領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人真正應(yīng)該重視的。 [00:47:12]For the next three dozen years as king, this king actually started measuring and managing around happiness in Bhutan -- 在接下來他當(dāng)國王的36年中，這位國王甚至開始衡量和管理不丹的快樂。 [00:56:12]including, just recently, taking his country from being an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy with no bloodshed, no coup. 也包括最近，把這個(gè)國家從一個(gè)完全的君主專政政體轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)榱艘粋€(gè)君主立憲政體沒有流血，沒有屠殺。 [01:03:23]Bhutan, for those of you who don't know it, is the newest democracy in the world, just two years ago. 不丹，對那些不了解這個(gè)國家的人來說是一個(gè)新型的民主政體，僅僅始于兩年前。 [01:08:48]So as I spent time with leaders in the GNH movement, I got to really understand what they're doing. 所以當(dāng)我與這些提倡國民幸福總值運(yùn)動(dòng)的領(lǐng)袖們交流，我才逐漸明白他們在做些什么。 [01:13:37]And I got to spend some time with the prime minister. Over dinner, I asked him an impertinent question. 當(dāng)我與這位總理相處時(shí)，在一次晚飯時(shí)，我問了他一個(gè)毫不相干的問題。 [01:18:59]I asked him, "How can you create and measure something which evaporates -- in other words, happiness?" 我問他，”你是怎樣創(chuàng)造和度量一些空泛易蒸發(fā)的東西，換句話來說，快樂？ [01:27:44]And he's a very wise man, and he said, "Listen, Bhutan's goal is not to create happiness. “他是充滿智慧的人，他回答說：“佛祖的目的并不是去創(chuàng)造快樂。
