Subject: Causal Attention!
Rational Attention Breaks Mental Hindrances:
The Blessed Buddha once said:
When attending rationally sense-desire does neither arise, nor expand.
When attending rationally evil-will does neither arise, nor later expand.
When attending rationally lethargy & laziness does not emerge or grow.
When attending rationally restlessness & regret cannot arise or amplify.
When attending rationally doubt & uncertainty does not begin or blow up.
Furthermore, when attending carefully & rationally to cause and effect:
The awareness link to awakening arises, and is gradually completed.
The investigation link to awakening arises, and is gradually completed.
The energy link to awakening arises, and is gradually completed.
The joy link to awakening arises, and is gradually completed.
The tranquillity link to awakening arises, and is gradually completed.
The concentration link to awakening arises, and is gradually completed.
The equanimity link to awakening arises, and is gradually completed!
