《從禪那出來之後要怎樣做?》
從禪那出來,不要那麼快就鬆開我們的手腳
我們應該要回憶起之前是怎樣修習,而生起定力的。我們是用什麼方法作為內心覺知或者憶念的對象?
當出定後,我們應該先這樣去正思維,不要那麼快鬆開手腳。我們去回憶起到底怎樣讓心入定,是長呼吸?短呼吸?是粗?是幼?而讓這個心能夠入定。
我們將這心安住在哪個安立處?我們要記得。當我們記住了之後,心才容易平靜。這個是為了之後打坐時可以用同樣的方法。這樣心才容易平靜。
但如果我們去換方法去修,那就很難平靜。
就是這樣一直修下去
---Luang ta siri
After coming out of Jhana, do not quickly loosen your hands and feet.
We should remember how we practiced before and what methods we used to cultivate stillness. What was the object of our inner awareness or recollection?
When we finish meditating, we should first reflect on how we entered Jhana: Was it through long breaths? Short breaths? Was the breathing coarse or fine? This helps our mind settle into calmness.
Where do we establish our mind? We need to remember this. Once we remember, it becomes easier for the mind to be at peace. This way, we can use the same method when we meditate again, making it easier for the mind to settle.
However, if we switch methods, it becomes difficult to find calmness. So, we should continue practicing in this way.

<極速入深定的要訣>
我們用正念去知道五蓋,五蓋同樣也會滅掉,心同樣也會寧靜
一旦心寧靜到非常嫻熟,接下來入深定就不是難事了
想入深定就直接面對面地觀心,保持中立,沒有喜歡這樣,沒有喜歡那樣
保持中立,立即就寧靜了

<Tips for Quickly Entering Deep Meditation>
We use mindfulness to know the five hindrances, and as we do, the five hindrances will also fade away, and the mind will become tranquil.
Once the mind is very tranquil and proficient, entering deep stillness will no longer be difficult.
To enter deep stillness, directly face the mind, maintaining neutrality—neither liking this nor that. By keeping neutral, tranquility will arise immediately.

早晨(隆波)教導基金會主席,
他說:「修習禪定很難,心一直在掙扎。」
隆波就告訴他:
「你觀察到了嗎?
你的心每一次掙扎,每一次都會損耗能量。」
試著看,
我們的心並沒有一直損耗很多能量,
有些片段,能量損耗比較少。
在能量損耗比較少的時候,
其實,我們的心並非不善。
如果我們的心是不善的,
我們損耗的能量就會比較多。
我們試著閉上眼睛,去看心工作,
(心)不停地掙扎來、掙扎去的,
會損耗能量。
能感覺到嗎?
有時候損耗能量比較多,
有時候損耗能量比較少。
我們不停地去訓練自己,
如果我們(的心)需要休息,
需要充電,將自己的電充好,
我們就去看——
哪一個點,耗能是最少的。
我們記住那一個點——
「哦!如果我們的心沒有掙扎,
輕鬆自在地覺知自己,那耗能比較少」,
能夠記得那一個點。
接下來,當要修習禪定的時候,
一想到(耗能較少的)那一個點,
就進入了。
隆波要想能夠抓住這個竅門,
訓練禪定,訓練了幾十年,
才能抓住這個關鍵。
這是免費分享給大家的,
取決於大家是不是能做得到,
這屬於奢摩他。
一旦心有了力量之後,放任它去工作,
有什麼事物接觸到身體,知道;
有什麼事物接觸到心,知道。
接觸到心的事物,其實就是念頭,
一旦接觸之後,心有什麼感覺生起,
我們去及時地知道,
就是這麼訓練。
有什麼事物接觸到身體,
心有任何的運動變化,及時地知道;
有什麼事物接觸到的心,念頭接觸到心,
心有任何的運動變化,及時地知道。
在日常生活中時,
眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、心接觸所緣,
我們就只是觀自己的心。
眼睛看到畫面,心是什麼樣子的,及時地知道,
耳朵聽到聲音,心是什麼樣子的,及時地知道,
鼻子聞到、舌頭嚐到、
身體接觸到、心接觸到念頭,
心是什麼樣子的,去及時地知道。

《禪定的要領》
我們修行是為了什麼?開心!
我們證悟涅槃是為了什麼?開心!
障礙我們開心的,是煩惱,是貪嗔癡,
是五蓋:貪婪(心把東西拉過來),嗔恚(心把東西推開),心散亂後悔,心的昏沉睡眠,疑惑。
還有一個每個人心中都根深蒂固的:就是覺得自己很重要,和人比較--這是我慢
假如不在日常生活中減少或者制止這些貪嗔癡,真正坐禪時是無法平靜下來的
關於禪修,Ajahn sumedho 曾引述阿姜查版本的禪修
阿姜查說:‘禪修就是心的假期。’
Ajahn brahm 也是一直強調: Relax~ to the max~ (放鬆~到極點)Ajahn brahm 說,這是進入禪那的要領。Ajahn brahm 甚至確認,我們不用專注什麼,只是一直這樣放鬆,已經足以進入禪那:當‘我’消失,自我的感覺和擁有的感覺和所有的控制、造作等想法消失,然後禪那很自然地發生
Ajahn Golf 教導,我們修習禪定並不是為了得到些什麼
阿贊耀(受隆波間夏指示來香港教導禪修的香港籍師父)所教導的鬆入式禪法也是一樣,就是不斷地放鬆,鬆開五蓋,放下一切;禪定就自然發生。
一直這樣放鬆下去,不讓任何煩惱滋生,這個心慢慢就會變得喜悅,變得滋潤,這就是有禪定的心,有功德的心。不用進入什麼很深的禪定,不用理會是禪那還是什麼的;這樣的放鬆有定的狀態本身就是快樂的。我們修行的初階目標已經達到了,我們已經得到快樂了
那些光音天的梵天神偶爾會感嘆:‘啊!快樂啊!快樂啊!’ (DN33) 就是這種具有禪定功德的狀態。
但如果要達到更高級的快樂,就要利用這個平靜,快樂,穩定的心,去如實觀察,或思維身心的無常,苦,無我。
當波羅蜜完全圓滿,就會得到Ajahn Golf 這樣自在,放下一切的快樂了!
每個人都想開心,開心就是那麼簡單
《Meditation is tailor made for lazy people! 》
It is a problem , because we always get it wrong, when we meditate , we want to do the meditation. You’re missing the point !
Meditation is not something you do, its not some sort of craft and hobbies; or some other business we do.
You work so hard for things in the world. Work hard to earn a living, work hard to look after your family, even just getting here doing your social and family responsibilities; its so much hard work.
Why do you use the same method when you come and meditate. It is relaxing time! Letting Go time ! Compassion time! Time of peace !
So, when you actually learn about meditation, just sitting there and doing nothing.
It is very often that I used to tell people, if you are a lazy person, if you are really lazy; then meditation is made for you!
In other words, that is really knowing how to be lazy, really lazy; but people don’t know about laziness.
By laziness they mean doing something else that they should be doing
But laziness is really just allowing this moment to be, embracing it, not doing anything.
Do aside this controller , which causes all the problem in your life and other people’s lives as well. You make peace with that. And after a while it just disappears, it calms down. It’s settled

《打坐是為懶惰的人度身訂做的!》
這是一個問題,因為我們在打坐時總是搞錯。我們想要“做”打坐。你捉錯重點了!
打坐不是你在‘做’什麼東西,它不是某種工藝或愛好;也不是我們在做的其他事業。
你在這個世界上辛苦工作。努力賺取生計,努力照顧家庭,甚至只是履行社交和家庭責任;這都是非常艱辛的工作。
那麼,為什麼在來打坐時還要用同樣的方法呢?這是放鬆的時候!放下的時候!慈悲的時候!平靜的時候!
所以,當你真正學習打坐時,就是坐在那裡什麼也不做。
我經常告訴人們,如果你是一個懶惰的人,如果你真的懶惰,那麼打坐就是為你量身定做的!
換句話說,這真的是在學會如何懶惰,真正的懶惰;但人們不知道什麼是懶惰。
人們所謂的懶惰,其實是指在應該做的事情上做其他事情。
但懶惰其實就是允許當下的存在,擁抱它,而不做任何事情。
放下這個控制者,這個造成你生活中以及他人生活中所有問題的東西。你要與他和平共處。過一段時間後,它就會消失,心會平靜下來。這就是解決的方式。

<how do our mind get still? 怎樣讓心靜止>
(Ajahn brahm 舉起了一杯水)這杯水就像我的心,我的工作就是要讓這杯水完全地靜止。
它靜止了嗎?(不)
現在我放我的注意力下去,它停止移動了嗎?
我不在專注,現在我專注…
這就是許多人打坐的情況了,這就是它們怎樣感到沮喪
那是一個很容易打坐的方法,你放下他然後隨它去(Ajahn brahm 放下了杯)
它還在移動,然後越來越少、越來越少。一段時間後,它就完全地靜止
(Ajahn brahm gets a water with his hand ) this water is like my mind , my job is to put this water to perfectly still
Is it still yet ?(no)
Now I put attention, is it stop moving yet ?
I am not concentrating , now I concentrate ..
That is how many people meditate . That is how people get frustrated enough
It is a very easy way to meditate—you put it down and let it go. (ajahn brahm put down the water)
It is still moving , and less and less and less. And over a time , it becomes perfectly still

《You don’t need to focus on anything in order to enter jhana進入禪那不一定要專注於任何東西》
信徒:是否真的不需要專注任何一樣東西, 但只是放鬆就可以進入禪那?
Ajahn brahm: 是的
信徒:甚至不專注呼吸?
Ajahn brahm: 你不用專注任何一樣東西,你不做任何東西。 任何時候我這樣做,我也會有點保留,因爲那是我們比丘和比丘尼的規則:假如你宣稱如這個深入的禪定,如果你說真話然後你是和在家人説的,你就犯捨墮, 那違反了我們律藏的規則。假如你説謊,那是大罪,你不再是比丘了,那是個嚴肅的事情。 所以有時我們也沮喪。(那些人會問:)你不能解釋事情嗎?
這些日子,有一次當我去斯里蘭卡,我被問到:Ajahn brahm 你說很多關於深入的禪定禪那,你也寫書說關於它們。你能進入禪那嗎?
他使我尷尬
我回答的方式,我也和你們分享,因爲·那也教導你們許多關於深定。我對那位斯里蘭卡比丘:Ajahn brahm 不能進入禪那‘ 他們也知道那不是一個直接的答案
‘你是什麽意思?‘
Ajahn brahm 要先消失。當我消失,自我的感覺和擁有的感覺和所有的控制、造作等想法消失,然後禪那很自然地發生
我不能進入它們.gerald 你不能進入jhana ,但Gerald 先消失,然後它就在那裏。
Freddie 你不能夠進入禪那。當freddie 消失,沒有餘下freddie,那你就找到世界中其中一樣最簡單的東西了
所以有時它就是一點笑話,但内裏也是有許多的真理
所以當你教導別人關於jhana,那就是在教導別人死亡是怎樣的。死亡101(課)
它是不可思議地怡人,它毫不嚇人。現在你知道你仍然在生然後你再回來,你會知道死亡時怎樣的“五種感官消失。所以我一某種權威地說,他們不用害怕死亡。
死亡,是,通常是不怡人的。但當你過了那一點,那是很平靜、美麗的。然後當你知道你在做什麽,那是不可思議地美好的。可以嗎?
Student : is it really no need to focus on anything but just relax and we can enter jhana?
Ajahn brahm: yes
Student: not even on breathing ?
Ajahn brahm;you don’t have to focus on anything, you don’t do anything. Its like whenever I talk like this , I am always a little bit reticent, because its one of our rules as a monk or a nun as well, that if you claim things like this deep meditations; if you are telling the truth and you are telling to lay people, you are offending the pacittaya , its against the Vinaya rules; if you are lying about it, it’s a large offence, you are no longer a monk. It’s a serious thing. So we get frustrated sometimes, cant you explain things?
These days, there is a time when I am visiting sri lanka, I am asked with the question: ajahn brahm you talk so much about deep meditation jhanas, and you write books about them, ajahn brahm, can you enter jhana?
They put me on the spot.
The way I answered , I am sharing with you, because it also teaches you about many parts of the deep meditations. I said to this senior sri lanka monk: ‘ajahn brahm cannot enter jhana. ‘ They knew me that is not a straight answer.
‘what you mean?’
Ajahn brahm has to vanish first, once I disappear, my sense of self and ownership and all the controlling and doing those ideas disappears, then the jhana happens naturally.
I cant enter them. Gerald you cant enter into the jhana, byut Gerald disappears, then it is there for you.
Freddie it is not possible for you to get into jhana, once freddiev vanishes, there is no Freddie left, then you will find one of the easiest things on the world .
That is one of the reason why people do see lights, when they die. A lot of what you take yourself to be , and all of your ownership and possessions which define you, they are all taken away from you. But it is a great opportunity.
So sometimes, it’s a bit of a joke, but theres a lot of truth to it as well.
So when you teach people about jhana, its like teaching people how death is like. Dying 101.
And its incredible pleasant, it doesn’t scare you at all. Now you know you are still alive and you come back again, you know what dying is like : five senses vanishing. That’s why I say with kind of authority, they don’t need to be afraid of death .
Dying yes is often unpleasant. But death itself, when you go past that point, its very peaceful , and very beautiful. And if you know what you are doing, it is incredible nice . ok ?
