【The Origin of Suffering】- Ethically neutral karma

In regards to virtuous, nonvirtuous and ethically neutral, these three things, I need to briefly explain them. "Ethically neutral" means it is not distinguishable. "Neutral" means you cannot distinguish whether it is virtuous or nonvirtuous. [But] it consists of two kinds: one is called "obscured and ethically neutral," and the other one is called "unobscured and ethically neutral." What is the difference between obscured and unobscured? "Obscured" means it is defiled. In general, for instance when we sit, stand and walk, your mind is indifferent. Not only is this ethnically neutral, there is indeed no defilement. So what is "obscured"? That is whenever you are shifting in accordance to the conception of the self. However there is no strong power attached to that.

希求解脱 : 无记业

这个关于善、恶、无记三样东西要说一下。“无记”就是它没办法分辨—“记”就是说明—没办法分辨是善的或是恶的。那么这个里面有两种：一种叫“有覆无记”，一个叫“无覆无记”。那么通常所谓有覆、无覆的差别在什么地方？“覆”就是染污，平常譬如说：我们随便坐、站、走，你心里面这个无所谓，这是不但无记，本身的的确确也没有染污在里面。那么这个“有覆”是什么呢？就是说凡是跟我相的行相转的，但是并没有强有力的力量。
