XI. 第二組四法
I shall now show the second tetrad of the sutta which is to be attempted or practised in the fixing stage, the stage of the full absorption or jhāna. The text states:
現在說明經文中第二組四法。這是在(計數、隨逐、安住三種方法中的)安住階段所要努力或修習的。在安住階段要證入(遍作、近行、安止三類定中的)安止定或禪那。經文陳述道：
-
Pītipaṭisaṃvedī assasissāmīti sikkhati, pītipaṭisaṃvedī passasissāmīti sikkhati.
-
Sukhapaṭisaṃvedī assasissāmīti sikkhati, sukhapaṭisaṃvedī passasissāmīti sikkhati.
-
Cittasaṅkhāraṃ paṭisaṃvedī assasissāmīti sikkhati, cittasaṅkhāraṃ paṭisaṃvedī passasissāmīti sikkhati.
-
Passambhayaṃ cittasaṅkhāraṃ assasissāmīti sikkhati, passambhayaṃ cittasaṅkhāraṃ passasissāmīti sikkhati.
-
「Experiencing rapture, I will exhale and inhale,」 thus he trains himself.
-
「Experiencing happiness, I will exhale and inhale,」 thus he trains himself.
-
「Experiencing the mental functions, I will exhale and inhale,」 thus he trains himself.
-
「Allaying and calming down the mental functions, I will exhale and inhale,」 thus he trains himself.
-
「學覺知喜我將出息，」「學覺知喜我將入息。」
-
「學覺知樂我將出息，」「學覺知樂我將入息。」
-
「學覺知心行我將出息，」「學覺知心行我將入息。」
-
「學平靜心行我將出息，」「學平靜心行我將入息。」
-
What is meant by 「experiencing rapture」 (pītipaṭisaṃvedī) is putting forth effort, when the counterpart sign appears, until the first and second jhānas are attained, in which rapture (pīti) predominates.
-
「覺知喜」(pītipaṭisaṃvedī)的意思是，似相出現後，保持努力，直到證入有喜(pīti)禪支的初禪和第二禪。
-
What is meant by 「experiencing happiness」 (sukhapaṭisaṃvedī) is putting forth effort until the third jhāna is attained, in which happiness (sukha) predominates.
-
「覺知樂」的意思是，保持努力，直到證入有樂(sukha)禪支的第三禪。
-
What is meant by 「experiencing the mental functions」 (cittasaṅkhāraṃ paṭisaṃvedī) is putting forth effort until the fourth jhāna is attained, in which the mental function (citta-saṅkhāra) of equanimous feeling (upekkhā vedanā) predominates.
-
「覺知心行」 (cittasaṅkhāraṃ paṭisaṃvedī)的意思是，保持努力，直到證入有舍受(upekkhā vedanā)這種心行(citta-saṅkhāra)的第四禪。(譯注：《清淨道論》P288，「心行」—是受想二蘊)
-
What is meant by 「allaying and calming down the mental functions」 (passambhayaṃ cittasaṅkhāraṃ) putting forth effort to allay and calm down the coarse feelings (vedanā) and perceptions (saññā).
-
「平靜心行」(passambhayaṃ cittasaṅkhāraṃ)的意思是，努力減弱和平靜粗糙的受(vedanā)和想(saññā)。
The Commentary associates this tetrad with full absorption in jhāna, but the experience of rapture, joy, and calm is also associated with the access to jhāna (upacāra-jhāna), attained after the first appearance of the counterpart sign.
義注把此組四法和證入安止定聯系在一起(注1)，但是，喜、樂、舍的覺知和近行定(upacāra-jhāna)也有關系。似相第一次出現後達到近行定。(譯注1：見《清淨道論》P287。)
This ends the second tetrad.
第二組四法，到此結束。
