【The Meditation Session – what to do in between sessions 】- Acting vigilantly – element of time

However, once here, you are not expected to achieve it right away – I have explained this very clearly. As long as one has the mentality that I am here to learn and would like to achieve it, then it is right! Thus, with this mindset, then slowly, gradually we will transform our habits within these strict requirements and slowly, slowly advance. Next, [page 104] the third element. In the text:

【3) The element of time: With regards to any period of time, you analyze to discover what will be happening and how to proceed, and then consider the situation in light of what you have concluded. For example, once you have understood that it is proper to go to town in the morning but not in the afternoon, act accordingly and be vigilant at that time. 】

So the third element is other than going outside, what about timing? This is easy to understand, it says that morning visits are permitted and afternoon ones are not. Thus you just apply according to what you know.

修持轨理 - 未修中间 : 正知而行-正知时分行相

可是跑到这地方来不是说叫你马上做到，我已经说得很清楚了。只要有一个心理——说我到这里来要肯学的、想做的，就对了！然后呢有了这个心情，慢慢、慢慢地把我们的习气，从这个严格的要求当中，慢慢、慢慢地去升上。下面最后一行，三，书本上面：

【三谓于其何等时分，应以何相如何观察，即于是时，以如是相如是观察，譬如午前可赴聚落，午后不可，既了知已，即如是行，尔时亦应安住正知。】

那么第三呢，就是除了去的地方以外，时间是怎么办。这个容易了解，说上午可以，下午不行，那么你就按照你所知道的去做。
