216如是我闻：有一次，世尊住在舍卫城的祇树给孤独园。在那里，世尊对诸比丘说：“比丘们。”那些比丘应答世尊：“尊师。”世尊这样说道：
Evaṃ me sutaṃ – ekaṃ samayaṃ bhagavā sāvatthiyaṃ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme. Tatra kho bhagavā bhikkhū āmantesi – ‘‘bhikkhavo’’ti. ‘‘Bhadante’’ti te bhikkhū bhagavato paccassosuṃ. Bhagavā etadavoca –
2“比丘们，致力于增上心修习的比丘，应当适时地对五种相作意。是哪五种呢？比丘们，在此，比丘因为某个相，因为对该相作意，而生起了与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻。比丘们，那位比丘应当从那个相转向另一个与善相应的相来作意。当他从那个相转向另一个与善相应的相来作意时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻就被舍弃，就消失。因为它们被舍弃，心便安住于内，寂止、专一、入定。比丘们，就像一位熟练的木匠或木匠的徒弟，会用细的楔子敲出、取出、替换粗的楔子；同样地，比丘们，比丘因为某个相，因为对该相作意，而生起了与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻，那么，比丘们，那位比丘应当从那个相转向另一个与善相应的相来作意。当他从那个相转向另一个与善相应的相来作意时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻就被舍弃，就消失。因为它们被舍弃，心便安住于内，寂止、专一、入定。

217“比丘们，如果那位比丘从那个相转向另一个与善相应的相来作意时，与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻仍然生起，那么，比丘们，那位比丘应当审察这些寻的过患：'这些寻确实是不善的，这些寻确实是有罪过的，这些寻确实有痛苦的果报。'当他审察这些寻的过患时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻就被舍弃，就消失。因为它们被舍弃，心便安住于内，寂止、专一、入定。比丘们，就像一位年轻、喜欢打扮的女子或男子，当有人将一条死蛇、一条死狗或一具人的尸体挂在他脖子上时，他会感到厌恶、羞愧、排斥；同样地，比丘们，如果那位比丘从那个相转向另一个与善相应的相来作意时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻仍然生起，那么，比丘们，那位比丘应当审察这些寻的过患：'这些寻确实是不善的，这些寻确实是有罪过的，这些寻确实有痛苦的果报。'当他审察这些寻的过患时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻就被舍弃，就消失。因为它们被舍弃，心便安住于内，寂止、专一、入定。

218“比丘们，如果那位比丘审察这些寻的过患时，与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻仍然生起，那么，比丘们，那位比丘应当对这些寻采取不忆念、不作意。当他对这些寻采取不忆念、不作意时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻就被舍弃，就消失。因为它们被舍弃，心便安住于内，寂止、专一、入定。比丘们，就像一位有眼睛的人，不想看见进入视野中的景象，他便闭上眼睛，或看向别处；同样地，比丘们，如果那位比丘审察这些寻的过患时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻仍然生起，它们就被舍弃，就消失。因为它们被舍弃，心便安住于内，寂止、专一、入定。

220“比丘们，如果那位比丘对这些寻的寻行止息作意时，与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻仍然生起。那么，比丘们，那位比丘应当以齿压齿，以舌抵上颚，用他的心去制服、压制、击溃心。当他以齿压齿，以舌抵上颚，用他的心去制服、压制、击溃心时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻就被舍弃，就消失。因为它们被舍弃，心便安住于内，寂止、专一、入定。比丘们，就像一个强壮的人，抓住一个弱小的人的头部、颈部或肩部，将他制服、压制、击溃；同样地，比丘们，如果那位比丘对这些寻的寻行止息作意时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻仍然生起。那么，比丘们，那位比丘应当以齿压齿，以舌抵上颚，用他的心去制服、压制、击溃心。当他以齿压齿，以舌抵上颚，用他的心去制服、压制、击溃心时，那些与贪欲相应、与嗔恚相应、与愚痴相应的恶不善寻就被舍弃，就消失。因为它们被舍弃，心便安住于内，寂止、专一、入定。”

221比丘们，当一位比丘因为某个相、作意某个相，而生起与贪欲相关的恶不善寻、与嗔恚相关的恶不善寻、与愚痴相关的恶不善寻时，他应该从这个相，转而去作意另一个与善法相关的相。当他转而去作意另一个与善法相关的相时，那些与贪欲相关、与嗔恚相关、与愚痴相关的恶不善寻，就会被舍断，就会消失。由于它们被舍断，心便内在地安定下来、平静下来、变得专注、入定。如果他观察这些寻的过患，那些与贪欲相关、与嗔恚相关、与愚痴相关的恶不善寻，就会被舍断，就会消失。由于它们被舍断，心便内在地安定下来、平静下来、变得专注、入定。如果他致力于对这些寻不作意、不忆念，那些与贪欲相关、与嗔恚相关、与愚痴相关的恶不善寻，就会被舍断，就会消失。由于它们被舍断，心便内在地安定下来、平静下来、变得专注、入定。如果他作意于这些寻的寻行止息，那些与贪欲相关、与嗔恚相关、与愚痴相关的恶不善寻，就会被舍断，就会消失。由于它们被舍断，心便内在地安定下来、平静下来、变得专注、入定。如果他以齿压齿，以舌抵上颚，用强大的心意去克制心、压迫心、摧破心，那些与贪欲相关、与嗔恚相关、与愚痴相关的恶不善寻，就会被舍断，就会消失。由于它们被舍断，心便内在地安定下来、平静下来、变得专注、入定。比丘们，这样的比丘，被称为是寻的道路方法的自在者。他想生起什么样的寻，就能生起什么样的寻；他不想生起什么样的寻，就不会生起那样的寻。他斩断了渴爱，挣脱了结缚，由于正确地现观了慢，他彻底走到了痛苦的尽头。
