釋摩訶般若波羅蜜經覺意三昧 1.16

1.16

答曰：此四運心相攝一切心，如緣惡法，未念惡法、欲念惡法、念惡法、念惡法已；如緣善法，未念善、欲念善、念善、念善已；緣諸六塵及三毒等一切煩惱，乃至行住坐臥、言語飲食、所作施為一切諸事，皆有如上四相之心；及緣一切世間法，皆有如此四相之心。是故但說四種之相以為觀境，靡所不攝。

Answer: These characteristics of the four movements of mind subsume all minds. For instance, when taking unwholesome phenomena as conditions, there are: prior to thinking of unwholesome phenomena, intending to think of unwholesome phenomena, thinking of unwholesome phenomena, and having thought of unwholesome phenomena. As when taking wholesome phenomena as conditions, there are: prior to thinking of the wholesome, intending to think of the wholesome, thinking of the wholesome, and having thought of the wholesome. When taking conditions such as the six sense-objects, all afflictions including the three poisons, down to walking, standing, sitting, lying down, speaking, eating and drinking, and all activities and deeds that are performed, each possesses the mind of the four characteristics as described above; and taking conditions of all mundane phenomena, each possesses the mind of these four characteristics. Therefore, we speak solely of the four kinds of characteristics as the objects of contemplation, leaving nothing unincluded.
