在通讯便捷的今天,人们时时处在各种资讯的轰炸中,变得难以专注。因为散乱,就会在不知不觉中被控、被干扰。事实上,这正是很多人的现状。当心静不下来,思维就会迟钝,工作效率和创造力因此受到影响。就像电脑硬件欠佳又开了太多窗口时,运转速度会变慢甚至宕机。In today’s world of instant communication, we are constantly bombarded with information, making it difficult to concentrate. This restlessness often leaves us unknowingly distracted and controlled by external stimuli, which has become the norm. When the mind is unsettled, our thinking slows down, impacting work efficiency and creativity. It is like a computer with outdated hardware running too many programs at once—it slows down or even crashes.
禅修就是通过对专注的训练,让我们学会把心带回当下。虽然面对很多事,但每个当下只想一件事,只做一件事,就不会妄念纷飞,使能量被各种碎片消耗殆尽。Meditation, however, helps us bring our mind back to the present moment through concentration. Though facing many tasks, if we focus on one task at a time, our thoughts won’t scatter, and our energy won’t be drained by endless distractions.
此外还要定期给内心杀毒。我们知道,电脑病毒会使系统崩溃,其实生命也是同样。凡夫内心有种种烦恼,源头就是贪嗔痴三毒。如果不加对治,身口意三业会在不知不觉中被病毒侵扰。In addition, we need to clear the viruses from our mind regularly. Just as computer viruses can crash a system, it is the same with life. Ordinary beings are plagued by various afflictions, all rooted in the three poisons of greed, aversion, and ignorance. Without remedy, the body, speech, and mind will unknowingly be infected by these viruses.
这些病毒还有自我复制的功能,进入我们的一言一行乃至起心动念,使我们在做事和思考时带着这样那样的负面情绪。如此,又会使病毒进一步得到强化。They can also self-replicate, entering our words, actions, and thoughts. As a result, they cause us to carry various negative emotions when we act or think. This, in turn, intensifies the viruses.
所以我们要认识到哪些心理会制造病毒,只有看清真相,才能主动防范。进一步,还要通过禅修开启内心的杀毒软件。当我们学会专注后,就能对心行保持觉知,知道现在有什么心理在活动。Therefore, we must recognize which mental states produce viruses. Only by seeing the truth clearly can we proactively guard against them. Furthermore, activating our inner antivirus software through meditation is essential. By cultivating concentration, we can maintain awareness of our mental activities, knowing what is happening in our mind at any moment.
我们平时总在不知不觉中,就像一潭浑水,什么都看不清,只是凭感觉做些什么。当心静下来,不在过去,不在未来,也不让心胡思乱想,自由游荡,而是安住当下,就能清清楚楚地感受身心的一切。这种了了明知的能力,就是内心的杀毒软件,也是开启无限智慧的关键。Usually, we are unaware of these mental activities, like a pool of muddy water where nothing is clear, and our actions are driven by fleeting feelings. However, when the mind settles—not dwelling on the past or the future, nor wandering aimlessly, but fully abiding in the present moment—we become fully aware of everything in our body and mind. This clear awareness is our inner antivirus software and the key to unlocking infinite wisdom.
