【The Meditation Session – what to do in between sessions 】- How to practice without sleeping at the wrong time - Motivation (4.3)

【Third, think, “Just as I joyously persevered at cultivating virtue and not sleeping today, I will do the same tomorrow as well.” This will prevent breaking the continuity of your aspiration to cultivate virtue. Even if you forget your aspiration, always work to make it stronger. 】

Well! Reflect in this way: I am practicing like this now, notice, not only is it in the daytime but also practicing virtuous teachings when asleep at night! Today is like this and so is tomorrow. Because you continuously reflect in this way, therefore your mind – your mentality, this mentality of aspiring for virtue – this mental momentum continues. What is the benefit of this thought process? In our minds now, the thoughts that align with ignorance are eliminated, removed. In this situation, because your thoughts conform to virtue, even though you are not mindful and you have forgotten about it, the momentum of applying the teaching is still at work. What about us now? This requires a contrast to help our understanding. Because we have not yet officially studied this content, often the mind follows afflictions, circling around the afflictions.

修持轨理 - 未修中间 : 悎寤瑜伽-意乐4.3

【三者谓应作是思，如我今日勤修悎寤，及诸善法，明日亦应如是勤修，由是，于善欲乐相续，虽忘念中亦能精勤修上上品。】

嘿！这样地思惟: 说我现在这个地方修，你看，不要说白天，晚上睡觉都修这个善法! 今天这样，明天也这样。因为你继续不断地这样的思惟，所以你这个心意——意乐，这个善法欲的意乐，继续地相续。那个相续有个什么好处啊？我们现在的内心当中，随顺于无明的这个心里的相续，拿掉了，拿掉了。在这种状态当中啊，因为你的相续一直是善法，所以你就是忘念当中，你忘失了，还在用功。我们现在怎么呢？这个要对比一下，那个才了解。因为我们现在没有正式地修过这个内容，所以平常的时候，心里面一直跟烦恼，随着烦恼转。
