大念住经：身随观—界作意

　　再者，诸比丘！

　　[5] “Furthermore, monks,

　　比丘对这身体随意安置，随意摆放 ，从‘界’观察：

　　-- however it stands, however it is disposed -- in terms of properties:

　　『在这身体，有1地界、2水界、3火界、4风界。』

　　‘In this body there is the earth property, the liquid property, the fire property, & the wind property.’

　　诸比丘！譬如熟练的屠牛者，或屠牛者的徒弟，

　　monks, just as a skilled butcher or his apprentice,

　　杀牛后，(肉)一片一片地分离后，坐在十字路口；同样地；

　　having killed a cow, would sit at a crossroads cutting it up into pieces,

　　诸比丘！比丘对这身体随意安置，随意摆放，从‘界’观察：

　　monks, the monk contemplates this very body -- however it stands, however it is disposed --

　　『在此身，有1地界、2水界、3火界、4风界。』

　　in terms of properties: ‘In this body there is the earth property, the liquid property, the fire property, & the wind property.’

　　这样在身内随观身而住(等)，…

　　“In this way he remains focused internally on the body in & of itself, or focused externally... unsustained by anything in the world.

　　诸比丘！就这样比丘在身随观身而住。

　　monks, This is how a monk remains focused on the body in & of itself.
