【The Meditation Session – what to do in between sessions 】- Appropriate diet – Eating appropriate food which does not produce afflictions (3)

However, it doesn’t mean that I can continuously do this! Later, I knew that, as long as you are mindful of the proper perception, the effect is absolutely positive. Besides, once you have achieved the true effect, how wonderful! All the other concordant conditions will arise. So this is not hard, not difficult! The hard part is being unable to attain proper recognition. And even if you have proper recognition, you are not willing to practice. Before you even begin, the drum of retreat is already beating within, "alas, I’m only an ordinary being!" Then you are destined – you have no way out, you will never get rid of [afflictions]! This, I am pointing out here. Once you have this experience, how do you truly feel? You will experience the happiness of not being bond by affliction, and that is the joy of Dharma. By then, seeing others, I was like that too – alas, when the eyes see others eat more good food… now it has no impact [on me]. Well, it is a pity to talk about; I don’t know what to do to help this person? He helped me resolve this issue – if he hadn’t eaten it and [instead] left the food until the next day to invigorate my attachment again, I’m so thankful to him! So the mentality is completely different, this is an absolute fact! Once you have this, then you can progress and move a step forward in practising further discipline. I just want to mention about this contaminated mind here.

修持轨理 - 未修中间 : 饮食知量-非染污心中量食3

但是不是我一直做得到哦！我以后晓得，你只要真正那个正念摆在这里的话，千真万确地有效。而且等到你真正有效的时候，妙咧！其他相应的这种情况都来了。所以这不是难耶，不是难耶！难在你得不到正确的认识，以及得到了正确的认识你不肯做。你还没做心里面先打了退堂鼓: 唉呀，我就是个凡夫嘛！那注定你，你没办法，永远没办法! 这一点我在这个地方。你有了这个经验的时候，你真正地感觉到什么？你不会烦恼所困的这个快乐，那是法乐。到那时候人家看见，以前我也是这样的——唉哟，好东西看见人家多吃了，眼睛......现在不了。唉！说起来好可怜，我不晓得用什么方法帮忙他? 他帮忙我解决这个问题，他不吃掉，我摆到第二天又引发我的贪心，真感谢他! 这心情就完全不一样，这千真万确的事实耶！你有了这个，那那你才可以说向上去，进一步的调伏，这个是这地方顺便一提，是这个染污心。
