修習止觀坐禪法要 1.24

1.24

所言訶欲者，謂五欲也。凡欲坐禪，修習止觀，必須訶責。五欲者：是世間色、聲、香、味、觸；常能誑惑一切凡夫，令生愛著。若能深知過罪，即不親近，是名訶欲。

What is called 'rebuking desires' refers to the five desires. Whenever one wishes to practice seated meditation and cultivate calming and contemplation, one must rebuke them. The five desires are the worldly sights, sounds, scents, tastes, and tangibles. They can constantly delude and bewilder all ordinary people, causing attachment to arise. If one can deeply recognize their faults and offenses and thus not draw near to them, this is called rebuking desires.
