How do we view pain? Do we think pain is good or not good? Generally we think pain is a negative experience in life. When we have pain, the mind's automatic reaction, whether we are conscious of it or not, is actually not to like it. So when we meditate and we come across discomfort in the body or the mind, we need to check to see the ?mind's negative reaction toward this experience—and then adjust it.
我們怎么看待疼痛?我們認為疼痛是好還是壞?通常我們認為疼痛是負面的生活經(jīng)驗。當我們疼痛時,不論我們是否意識到它,心會自動地反應(yīng)去討厭它。當我們禪修時遇到身體或內(nèi)心的不舒服時,我們要檢查心對這種經(jīng)驗的排斥反應(yīng),然后接納它。
