Q32: Venerable Sir, what should a yogi do, if or when he or she finds the observation of “rising, falling” too easy or a gap noticeable between them?
问32:尊者,如果禅修者发现观照“起、伏”太容易或者起、伏之间有空档,他该怎么办?
A yogi, adding the sitting posture to the “rising, falling,” should note three objects: “rising, falling, sitting; rising, falling, sitting.” He or she must be aware of “sitting” in the same manner as “rising, falling.” Even then if a gap is found in between, note four objects by adding a prominent touching point to it: “rising, falling, sitting, touching.” When lyingdown,note insimilarlyway:“rising, falling, lying, touching”,or “rising, lying,falling,lying.”
禅修者应当在“起、伏”中加入坐姿,进而观照三个所缘“起、伏、坐;起、伏、坐”。他/她应该以觉知“起、伏”的方式觉知“坐”。如果这样还发现有空档,加入一个显著的触点观照四个所缘,“起、伏、坐、触”。躺卧时,以类似的方式观照“起、伏、躺、触”,或“起、躺、伏、躺”。
