59 A SITTING NOTEBOOK

【坐禅笔记】

用笔记本在坐禅时记下心得或坐禅后写下所思非常有用。如果你每次都在同一个地方坐禅，你可以把笔记本放在那里。如果你随时随地都会坐禅，那么可以把笔记本放在包或背包里随身携带。你可以写下你的想法和洞察。你也可以画画。在坐禅后，当你的头脑清晰时写作可能会很令人满足。你不需要马上阅读它。也许可以放上一段时间，这样你可以继续沉思，而不加以评判。

[A SITTING NOTEBOOK]

It can be useful to keep a notebook to jot down notes while sitting or to write in after sitting. If you sit in the same place each time, you can keep the notebook there. If you sit in different places wherever or whenever you can, then keep your notebook with you in a bag or backpack. You can write down the thoughts that come to you, the insights you have. You can also draw. Writing when your mind is clear after sitting can be very satisfying. You don’t need to read it right away. Perhaps leave it for a while, so you can continue to reflect without judgment.
