【Cultivating Ethical Behaviour】- Weaken the defiled clinging with the power of remedies

Thus with what method do you protect your mindfulness? You use the correct view. So what is the correct view, what is the correct mindfulness? You will know very clearly. When these two things are present, no matter what sensory object there is, you are completely restrained from it. Now similarly, with the same object, after you have cultivated the group of remedies, when the sensory object appears, what does he say? "...even when it comes in contact with other conditions," in other words the conditions have appeared for this sensory object. Right? But prior to your cultivation of the remedies, what was your attitude before? You only saw the advantages of the sensory object which is the past defiled clinging. After you have cultivated the remedies, your mental state will become like this, "Ah, this is what it is!" Will you give rise to the power of this defiled clinging? It can no longer rise. It has been weakened by your power of the remedies. So you will not pick it up again. For the newspapers that I just mentioned, you will not pick up the newspapers to read. Are you clear?

业果 : 以对治力损坏染着力

所以你用什么方式保护那个正念—用正见。然后呢正见是什么，正念是什么，你会清清楚楚，当这两样东西在的时候，这不管什么东西，这东西完全防护住了。现在你同样这东西，你现在修了对治以后，然后呢当境界现起的时候，他怎么说？“虽遇缘”，换句话说这个东西缘又来了，对不对？但是你没有修过对治的时候，心情是什么？你只看见它对你的好处，就是以前的染着；你修了对治以后，你那个心里边“啊，原来这个东西！”它这个染着的力量生得起来吗？生不起来了，被你这个对治的力量把它损害了，到那个时候你不会再拿起来。我刚才举那个报纸，你就不会拿起报纸来看，清楚不清楚？
