16.43

Regarding the treatise's statement: "When one of pleasant-and-slow progress functions in practice, although having already seen the truths, etc., up to: furthermore, toward feeling, perception, and applied thought in the desire realm, one should dwell in correct mindfulness and give rise to correct awareness": this means that because this person has dull faculties, toward wholesome feeling, perception, and applied thought of the desire realm, they dwell in correct mindfulness and dwell in discriminatory prajñā of correct awareness; that is, they seek sharp faculties yet fear falling away from the Dharma. "Feeling" refers to the feeling mental factor, with the sense of experiencing, which augments the experience of the pleasures of desire-realm phenomena. "Perception" refers to grasping appearances of the objective spheres of all phenomena. "Thought" refers to applied thought concurrent with feeling and perception. Within this, giving rise to perception of correct mindfulness, and because of lapse of mindfulness, one should give rise to correct awareness, producing discriminatory prajñā.
