八、修定有什么功德

[THE BENEFITS OF DEVELOPING CONCENTRATION]

362. Yaṃ pana vuttaṃ ‘‘samādhibhāvanāya ko ānisaṃso’’ti, tattha diṭṭhadhammasukhavihārādipañcavidho samādhibhāvanāya ānisaṃso.

其次对于所说的「修定有什么功德」的问题，有现法乐住等五种修定的功德。

Ñ(XI,120): The question (viii) WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONCENTRATION ? was also asked, however (Ch. III,§1). Herein, the benefits of the development of concentration are fivefold, as a blissful abiding here and now, and so on.

Tathā hi ye arahanto khīṇāsavā samāpajjitvā ekaggacittā sukhaṃ divasaṃ viharissāmāti samādhiṃ bhāventi, tesaṃ appanāsamādhibhāvanā diṭṭhadhammasukhavihārānisaṃsā hoti.

即：

（一）（现法乐住）诸漏尽阿罗汉既已入定，念「我以一境心于一日中乐住」而修定，由于他们修习安止定，故得现法乐住的功德。

Ñ: For the development of absorption concentration provides the benefit of a blissful abiding here and now for the Arahants with cankers destroyed who develop concentration, thinking 'We shall attain and dwell with unified mind for a whole day'.

Tenāha bhagavā ‘‘na kho panete, cunda, ariyassa vinaye sallekhā vuccanti. Diṭṭhadhammasukhavihārā ete ariyassa vinaye vuccantī’’ti (ma. ni. 1.82).

所以世尊说「周那？此等于圣者之律，不名为损减（烦恼），此等于圣者之律，称为现法乐住」。

Ñ: Hence the Blessed One said: 'But, Cunda, it is not these that are called effacement in the noble ones' discipline; these are called blissful abidings in the noble ones' discipline' (M.i,40).
