人腦的開發到了有入定的經驗以後才算是大開眼界。
就是佛陀的教授，也是把初果的名稱列為「法眼淨」，直到四聖果的「法眼明」一直強調必須看見，看見了才能決定下一步怎麼走。
而相傳是彌勒菩薩所著作的《唯識學》是否是一種修行者意識到大腦能夠蘊藏的記憶能力超乎想像，進而運用所學、所修寫出的作品！
這也可解釋佛典集成的誦出完全依靠大腦的記憶，如佛陀的弟子沒有驚人的腦力是不可能誦出完整佛典的。
只是，這些修入定過的意識（大腦）走入人群時所面對的考驗是另外一回事，
入定是一個人的事，在入定裡面萬一他智慧不夠、看得不夠，思慮得不足，那他在走入人群時被人群左右就變得非常容易。
而且一位修行者在有入定經驗後，到達一般人達不到的境界，很容易對自己產生無可轉圜的自信，是否是過度的信心也害了自己。
有讀者提問:「制心一處，無事不辦」
我想說請進行多元思考。

Perception 5
Greetings, friends of NanZen!
The development of the human brain truly opens up after one has experienced meditative absorption (samadhi).
In Buddhist teachings, even the first stage of awakening is called “the purified Dharma eye,” and the final stage is referred to as “the clarified Dharma eye.” These terms emphasize the necessity of ‘clear vision’—only through true insight can one determine the path forward.
The Yogācāra teachings, traditionally attributed to Maitreya Bodhisattva, may reflect a practitioner’s realization of the mind’s astonishing capacity for memory—leading them to compose such a profound work through their learning and cultivation.
This can also explain how the Buddhist scriptures were passed down entirely through memory. Without incredible brainpower, the Buddha’s disciples couldn’t have recited the teachings so perfectly.
However, a new challenge arises when the meditative mind re-enters the social world.
Samadhi is a personal experience. If a practitioner doesn’t have enough wisdom, insight, or clarity while in meditation, they may become easily influenced by others once they return to society.
Moreover, reaching states beyond the ordinary often leads to unshakable self-confidence. But this confidence, if unchecked, can become a kind of overconfidence that ends up harming the practitioner.
A reader once asked about the saying, “Focus the mind on one point, and nothing is impossible.”
To that, I would gently suggest: Please think from multiple perspectives.
