David Lin Apr 16, 2014:
It's exactly what I meant in my suggestion 是你们.... "They are in touch with who they are and their true nature; with the understanding that who they are, is not defined by what they do or what they achieve, but by being who they are.

"To feel accepted or approved of is something that is at their core and not something they have to gain by doing anything or pleasing anyone."

也不关乎他们(原文是家人)的位置、在场与否、所作何事、与品格行为 (即为人处事)无关的。

J.H. 的链结解释的很清楚。也是我对 Being 的理解。

是你们和你们所做的一切

西方哲学的 Being 中文只能从 “是” 去理解,而不是 ’有‘,参阅下面有关链接。

*********
根本原因是我们说的 “存在” 是与 is 没有关系的外部客观物质存在。我们只有把这个 is 如实地理解成系词 “是” 才能与人家开展有效的对话。

许多学者明知道西文的 Being 有 “是” 的意义, 甚至认为它就是联系动词的 “是”,之所以不这样译这样讲,据说是 “为了读者容易理解”。这种建立在读者(其实也包括作者, 有时可能首先是作者,因为根据一般经验,凡是作者能够理解的东西,总会有办法让读者理解的)容易理解的基础上的理解,实际上是用我们中国人所习惯的思维方式(前理解结构)去理解我们所不习惯的西方思想。这样理解起来当然很容易给我们造成容易理解的感觉,可实际情况如何呢?

*****
根据原文西方哲学来源,好像 being 应该是 is 来理解。

建议翻译为:

家中各人,是你们和你们所做的一切,值得赞赏。

供参考。

所作所为

Praise everyone in the family for being and doing.
称赞每一位家庭成员的所作所为。

disagree David Lin : 好像与原文的称赞语气有矛盾。‘所作所为“ - 指做的一切事情或全部行为。多指一些不好的行为http://chengyu.911cha.com/NTN1dw==.html
