It is psychologically impossible for us to objectively observe what is
going on within us if we do not at the same time accept the occurrence of
our various states of mind. This is especially true with unpleasant states
of mind. In order to observe our own fear, we must accept the fact that we
are afraid. We can't examine our own depression without accepting it fully.
The same is true for irritation and agitation, frustration and all those
other uncomfortable emotional states. You can't examine something fully if
you are busy reflecting its existence. Whatever experience we may be having,
Mindfulness just accepts it. It is simply another of life's occurrences,
just another thing to be aware of. No pride, no shame, nothing personal at
stake--what is there, is there.

按心理學的觀點，如果不接受當下發生的心態，不可能客觀地觀察當下發生甚麼。
碰到不舒服的時候更是如此。為了觀察恐懼，必須先接受恐懼的事實。不完全接受
愁苦，便無法檢查它。其它暴燥、激動、失望．．．．．．等不舒服的情感也是一
樣。如果你忙於排斥，就無法完整地檢查。無論發生甚麼，正念只是「接納」。接
受它是一種生活體驗，毫無自負、慚恥、也沒有自我因素－－－只是接受當下。
