Understanding Right Concentration in Mindfulness The Buddha’s First Teaching หน้า 176
หน้าที่ 176 / 263

สรุปเนื้อหา

This section discusses the concept of Right Concentration in mindfulness, highlighting its two essential characteristics: supporting role and focusing role. It draws analogies to illustrate how concentration is the foundation of all virtues, akin to a ridgepole supporting a castle roof. The emphasis is on maintaining mental focus and avoiding distractions, ensuring a singular focus towards higher virtues without succumbing to doubts. Such mindfulness practices are vital for both personal discipline and broader mental clarity. The relationship between concentration and the management of mental hindrances is elucidated, drawing parallels between an emperor’s need for oversight and the mind's requirement for focus to navigate challenges effectively.

the emperor. Similarly, discretional mindfulness monitors all mental phenomena — if it is unwholesome, then to try to reduce it. If it is wholesome, to give it the chance to grow. 8. Right Concentration Right Concentration has two characteristics: 1. Supporting Role [pāmakkhā samma samādhi]; 2. Focussing Role [avikkhepana samma samādhī]. 8.1 The Supporting Role of Right Concentration It is said that concentration is the head of all virtues rather like the ridge-pole of a castle roof which has the duty to take the weight of all the rafters. Thus in the Milindhapāṭha, Nägasenā makes the comparison: “Your Majesty, all the rafters of the castle roof, no matter- how numerous they may be, must have a ridgepole as their highest support, and come together at that ridge- pole. Thus the ridgepole is supreme amongst rafters. In the same way, no matter how many virtues there may be, all of them come together in Right Concentration” 8.2 The Focussing Role of Right Concentration It is the duty of concentration to keep the mind on track towards higher virtues without being waylaid or distracted by hindrances such as absent-mindedness or doubt — but to come to one-pointedness. Just as the emperor going to war must keep an eye on his ministers to make sure they don’t become dejected or lose their courage to fight against the enemy, and to remain loyal to his command. Similarly, Right Concentration has a focussing role to stop the mental faculties being scattered by hindrances such as absent- mindedness or doubt, but to remain one-pointed. 174
