安德鲁·卡内基：安德鲁·卡内基自传·补录 323
安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导
A new horizon was opened up to me by this voyage. It quite changed my intellectual outlook. Spencer and Darwin were then high in the zenith, and I had become deeply interested in their work. I began to view the various phases of human life from the standpoint of the evolutionist. In China I read Confucius; in India, Buddha and the sacred books of the Hindoos; among the Parsees, in Bombay, I studied Zoroaster. The result of my journey was to bring a certain mental peace. Where there had been chaos there was now order. My mind was at rest. I had a philosophy at last. The words of Christ "The Kingdom of Heaven is within you," had a new meaning for me. Not in the past or in the future, but now and here is Heaven within us. All our duties lie in this world and in the present, and trying impatiently to peer into that which lies beyond is as vain as fruitless.

白话
这次旅行改变了卡内基的思想视野。当时斯宾塞和达尔文如日中天，他深受影响，开始用进化论视角看人生。在中国读孔子，在印度读佛陀和印度教经典，在孟买读琐罗亚斯德教。结果他内心从混乱走向有序，有了自己的哲学。他重新理解基督的话“天国就在你们心里”：天堂不在过去未来，就在此时此地；责任都在现世，徒劳窥探来世毫无意义。核心是：广泛阅读不同文明智慧，能帮人建立安顿当下的世界观。
