淨空法師語錄 - 談靜坐與坐禪：
早晚有五到十分鐘靜坐
對身體健康有很大的好處
精神什麼時候能休息？入定。
所以入定是精神得到休息，
精神得到休息，身体也得到休息，
這入定的狀況之下 ，
不是入定得不到休息。
所以我們要想保健，想身体好，
最重要的精神得到休息。
自古以來，養生有道的人，
他們懂得，早晚時間不要長，
有五分鐘到十分鐘足够了，
靜坐，坐在那個地方。
起床了在床上打坐，
什麼都不要想，
讓身心都獲得休息，
這對身體健康有很大的好處。
不能盤腿没有關係，
就是普通坐法就行，
只是把什麼念頭都放下，
什麼要緊的事情都不要去想它，
這是養生之道裡非常好的一種
方法，跟佛經上講寂根意思相通。
不要看時間很短，很管用，
因為你從來没休息過，
能有這幾分鐘休息，
你會感到很殊勝。
佛經說： 「外不著相，內不動心」
稱打坐、坐禪。
所以，行住坐卧都是禪定，
不一定要盤腿面壁。
真正做到一切時，一切處，
六根（眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意六個識根）接觸外面境界，
眼見色、耳聞聲，
確實不起心、不動念、不分別，不執著，
這就是坐禪，這是真正在禪坐。
Quotations of Master Jing Kong -
Meditation ：
There are five to ten minutes of meditation
in the morning and evening,
which is very good for health.
When can the spirit rest?
In samadhi ( attaining a state of deep meditation ).
Therefore, get a rest in spirit,
when spirit is rested, the body is also rested.
Under this situation,
If we don't attain samadhi,
we won't get rest.
So we want to keep in good health,
the most important thing is to get rest.
Since ancient times,
people who know how to maintain health,
they know that the time should not be long in the morning and evening.
Five to ten minutes is enough.
Sit quietly.
Get up and sit on the bed to meditate.
Don't think about anything,
let your body and mind get rest.
Rest is of great benefit to your health.
It doesn't matter if you can't cross your legs.
It's just an ordinary sitting method.
Just put down all the ideas.
Don't think about anything important.
This is a very good way to maintain health, which is compatible with the meaning of the silent root in the Buddhist scriptures.
Although the time is short short
it works very well.
Because you have never rested,
have a rest for a few minutes,
you will feel very exceptional.
The Buddhist scriptures say :
" No appearance on the outside,
Unmotised by the heart "
is called meditation.
Therefore, it is meditation to walk, live, sit and lie, it all meditation.
You don't have to sit cross-legged
and facing the wall.
When you really do all the time, everywhere,
six touches （eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, meaning ）
contact with the outside world,
and the eyes see the colour,
ears hearing the sound,
truly don't care, don't think,
don’t discriminate and don’t persistent.
This is meditation, and this is the real meditation.
