将思维视为飘浮不定的幻象
思维不断生成叙事，塑造“我”与“世界”的感觉。若将其视为真实，心便被牵制；若如实观察，思维不过是短暂显现的影像。将思维视为幻象，并非否定思考功能，而是不再被其主导。
一、以觉察为前提：思维被看见
当思维被觉察。
它已不再是主体。
看见即拉开距离。
二、以形式为观察：影像与语言
有的以画面出现。
有的以语言流动。
形式多样，本质相同。
三、以速度为特征：来去迅疾
思维转换极快。
难以停留。
迅疾显其不实。
四、以重复性为线索：旧念再现
许多念头反复出现。
并非新鲜真实。
只是习惯回放。
五、以情绪关联为揭示：相互强化
思维引发情绪。
情绪反哺思维。
看清，循环松动。
六、以不跟随为练习：任其飘浮
不进入故事。
让思维自行消散。
不跟随即是解脱。
七、以觉知为锚点：稳于当下
觉知不随思维漂移。
稳住当下。
幻象失去力量。
八、以清明为结果：思维归位
思维成为工具。
不再是主宰。
清明自然呈现。
总结
当思维被如实看见，它失去欺骗力。幻象仍现，但不再束缚，心因此获得自由。

Sitting Meditation
Viewing Thought as a Floating Illusion
Thought constructs narratives of self and world. Taken as real, it dominates the mind; observed clearly, it reveals itself as fleeting imagery. Seeing thought as illusion restores its proper function without subjugation.
1. Awareness as Prerequisite
When thought is observed,
it is no longer the subject.
Distance appears through seeing.
2. Form as Observation
Some thoughts appear as images.
Others as language.
Forms differ, nature same.
3. Speed as Characteristic
Thought shifts rapidly.
It cannot stay.
Speed exposes insubstantiality.
4. Repetition as Clue
Many thoughts recur.
They are not fresh truths.
Habit replays.
5. Emotional Coupling
Thought fuels emotion.
Emotion fuels thought.
Seeing loosens the loop.
6. Non-Following as Practice
Do not enter the story.
Let thoughts float away.
Non-following frees.
7. Awareness as Anchor
Awareness remains present.
It does not drift.
Illusion weakens.
8. Clarity as Outcome
Thought returns to its role as tool.
No longer ruler.
Clarity prevails.
Summary
When thought is clearly seen, it loses its power to deceive. Illusion remains apparent, yet no longer binds, allowing genuine freedom.
