1.5 四界分別觀(Dhātumanasikāra 界作意; 5. Elements)

復次,諸比丘!比丘於任何姿勢中,以各種界思惟觀察此身,即:此身有地界、水界、火界、風界。

諸比丘!猶如熟練之屠牛者,或屠牛者之弟子,屠宰牛隻,並將其肢解成塊後,坐於四衢道口。

如是,諸比丘!比丘於任何姿勢中,以各種界思惟觀察此身,即:此身有地界、水界、火界、風界。

12. “Again, bhikkhus, a bhikkhu reviews this same body, however it is placed, however disposed, as consisting of elements thus: ‘In this body there are the earth element, the water element, the fire element, and the air element.’  [58] Just as though a skilled butcher or his apprentice had killed a cow and was seated at the crossroads with it cut up into pieces; so too, a bhikkhu reviews this same body … as consisting of elements thus: ‘In this body there are the earth element, the water element, the fire element, and the air element.’

如是,比丘安住於身,觀照內身;安住於身,觀照外身;安住於身,觀照內外身。安住於身,隨觀生法;安住於身,隨觀滅法;安住於身,隨觀生滅法。

於是「有身」之念現起,唯有正念與覺照,無所依而住,不再貪著世間之任何事物。

諸比丘!此即比丘安住於身,循身觀察。

13. “In this way he abides contemplating the body as a body internally, externally, and both internally and externally … And he abides independent, not clinging to anything in the world. That too is how a bhikkhu abides contemplating the body as a body.
