Mindfulness is non-egoistic alertness. It takes place without reference to
self. With Mindfulness one sees all phenomena without references to concepts
like 'me', 'my' or 'mine'. For example, suppose there is pain in your left
leg. Ordinary consciousness would say, "I have a pain." Using Mindfulness,
one would simply note the sensation as a sensation. One would not tack on
that extra concept 'I'. Mindfulness stops one from adding anything to
perception, or subtracting anything from it. One does not enhance anything.
One does not emphasize anything. One just observes exactly what is there--
without distortion.


正念是無自我的覺醒，它跟「我」無關。正念使你明白現象只是現象，沒有甚麼叫
「我」或「我的」。例如你左腳痛，通常意識會說「我痛」。而有正念的話，你只
是視感覺為感覺，不會加上額外的「我」。正念阻止你在知道後又去增減任何東西
。正念只是如實「覺察」，沒有扭曲。
