慈悲的法流 第三天 修习心的净化 Day Three: Practising Purification of the Mind▪P3

  ..续本文上一页where no imagination is involved, where no speculation is involved— we have to work with the truth, the truth as it is.

  因此,专注的对象应该是如实的实相﹕关于自身的实相、关于你一直称呼为「我、我、我的、我的」的这个身体结构的实相。我们已经对这个身体结构有了很大的认同,对于这个身体结构产生了极大的执取。同样 地,关于我们一直称为「我、我、我的、我的」的这个心的结构的实相我们也对于这个心的结构有了很大的认同,产生了极大的执取。一 个人必须要了解到什么是「我」、什么是「我的」﹖什么是这个身体的结构﹖什么又是心的结构呢﹖一个人必须在经验的层面上來了解这些。

  Therefore the object of concentration should be the truth as it is: the truth pertaining to oneself, the truth pertaining to your physical structure, which you keep calling "I, I, mine, mine." We have a tremendous amount of identification with this physical structure, and a tremendous amount of attachment towards this physical structure. Similarly with the truth pertaining to the mental structure, which we keep calling "I, I, mine, mine"—a tremendous amount of identification with this mental structure, and a tremendous amount of attachment towards this mental structure. One should understand what is this "I." What is this "mine"

   What is this physical structure

   What is this mental structure

   And one should understand it at the experiential level.

  这训練心专注的整个过程,应该同时也是这个心净化的过程。心的 净化与心的自主应该同行并进。否则,一个人只在定力上发展,他可以因而获得强大的力量每一个专注的心都是非常有力量的,但它却可 能被误用。如果心的出发点不清净,就算心非常专注,那么这是一个非常危险的心。专注的心也可以用來造作有害的行为。你一定看过白鹤,用一支脚站立在水塘旁的浅滩,完全地专注,专注在什么上面呢﹖就为 了找鱼來吃。或者是一只猫守在老鼠洞口,专注地等待一只老鼠自洞内 跑出,好把它吃了;一个人使用双管獵枪,也是全神贯注在獵物上,准 备一枪打死它。为了成功,你的心必须专注在你的每一个行为上﹔即使 是个扒手,也必须保持心的专注來扒取东西。这些都是专注力。

  The whole process of training the mind to get concentrated should simultaneously train the mind to become pure. Purification of the mind and mastery over the mind should develop side by side. Otherwise one learns only to concentrate the mind, with which one can get much power. Every concentrated mind is a very powerful mind, and it can be misused. If the base is impure, and the mind is concentrated, it is a dangerous mind. Unwholesome actions can be performed with a concentrated mind. You must have seen a crane, standing at the bank of a pond, on one leg, fully concentrated. Concentrated on what

  —on looking for a fish to devour. Or a cat at a mouse hole is concentrated on waiting for a mouse to come out, so it can devour it. To be successful, your mind has to be concentrated with every action that you perform. Even one who is a pickpocket has to keep his mind concentrated to pick pockets. These are all concentrations. Someone with a double barrelled-gun is fully concentrated on the prey, ready to shoot and kill it.

  但是,这些专注力并非正法。如果我们训練专注是基于贪爱或瞋恨,这就不是正定、不是如法的专注。专注不应该是基于贪爱、或瞋恨,专注必须是基于实相的。不应该有任何的想象、臆测、自我暗示、或外來的暗示等等,而是如其本來的实相。

  These kinds of concentration are not Dharma. When the base is craving or hatred, this is not right concentration, not Dharmic concentration. The base must be free from craving, free from aversion, and always based on the truth. There should be no imagination, no speculation, no auto-suggestions, no outer suggestions, but the truth as it is.

  

  要了解实相,印度过去的觉悟者已经给了我们这个方法。这个方法的整个过程就是了解实相的过程,自我了解的过程。这种对实相的了解,是要在经验的层面上去了解你自己的实相;如果只是经由书本、经典上所 写的,或者你的上师、你的传统、或你的信仰所說的,并不能达到对实相真正地了解。依照这个方法,首先你坐着、闭上你的眼睛及嘴巴,身体和嘴巴都不用做什么。

  To realize the truth, India”s enlightened people of the past gave us this technique. You sit down, close your eyes, close your mouth, and do nothing at the physical or vocal level. The whole process is a process of truth-realization, a process of self-realization, the truth pertaining to yourself at the experiential level—not what the books say, not what the script…
