【Cultivating Ethical Behaviour】- The state of deep conviction

What is a deep conviction like? That is in your arising thoughts, at all times, it will arise spontaneously, "Yes! This thing is like this. Why is there an effect as such? There must be a cause." Similarly, with every arising thought, you will immediately know what effects this thought will produce. This is the state of mind. That's when you have obtained conviction. That's when your faith is strong and stable.

We can immediately compare ourselves to this and observe for a moment. What are our arising thoughts now? Do we have concordance to this? This is very obvious. When you see any sensory object, you immediately pursue it. Um! You pursue it. And then? For what is attractive, you are attached. With what is unattractive, you become hostile. If a situation does not fall into any of these two situations, then you are in a state of ignorance. These reflect our defiled subjective aspects.

业果 : 深忍性的状态

那么这个深忍是什么状态呢？就是你起心动念之间，它一切时处，随时它会现起来：“嗯！这个事情是这样的，为什么有这个果，一定有它的因。”同样地，你现在起一念，你就立刻晓得，这一念将来感得什么果，这样的一个状态，那个时候是得到了深忍信，那个时候是信心就坚强了。

我们马上可以对比一下、观照一下。我们现在的起心动念是什么？有没有跟它相应？这个很明白，随便看见一个境界，你马上就跟着它转了，嗯！就跟着它去了。然后呢？好的－贪，反过来－瞋，不属于这两种－痴，那个就是我们染污相。
