抓贼

 

“不甘心”正是

烦恼欺骗我们的借口，

以为在保护自己，

其实中了它的圈套，

被套进非理作意的陷阱了。

 

明明知道出来就可以了，

可是自己还不想出来，

觉得起烦恼才是合理的。

不要继续去回忆当时的事，

不要顺着自己的思路

反复在内心申诉。

 

看看当下这颗心，

是不是像烧开水一样翻腾不止？

这种不寂静相就是烦恼。

现在，这个“贼”被我们

看到了，抓住了。

 

Capture thethief

"I just can’tlet go" is the excuse that afflictions offer us. In this way we pretend weare protecting ourselves. Instead, we just jump to the bait and fall into thetrap of wrong intention.

You know clearlythat all would be fine if you just let go, but you choose to be hooked anyway, justifyingafflictions as reasonable.  Stop recallingthe past. Don’t plea again and again along your habitual thought line. Observeyour mind right now.  Doesn’t it looklike the boiling water? The manifestation of this agitation is affliction. Now,we notice this thief and we capture it.
