初果=rid 我见

Am I rt??
What r e diff between human realm's 欲 n 欲界天's 欲?
師答:
1.
When you enter 初禅 to 4禅, your mind come into 色界 at same time. So they belong to 色界定.
When you enter 5,6,7,8禅, your mind come into 無色界 at same time. So they belong to 無色界定.
2.
People who have ablitily to enter 2禪 will go to 2禪天 after dying.
5 precepts is the most basic sila that Buddhists must obey whether you are at any state of meditation.
3.
The higher meditation you enter, the sharper power of observation you get, not only 欲界定.
4.
初禪 can't be combined with 初果. They have no relation.
When you meditate hard enough, you enter 初禪. Of course 初禪 represent you concentration having focused.
When you 斷三結, you must get 初果, and this position isn't decided from your meditation. Someone having no mediation may enter some 果位 because he is a pure vipassana practitioner. If he practices vipassana hard enough, he will achieve 初果 to 四果.
5.
One having gotten rid of 我見 feel the physical pain sometimes, but doesn't feel the mental pain anymore.
There is just 欲界定 in 欲界.
6.
What meditation way you adopt now is the first stage of mediation.
When you are familiar with this method, you must go on to the next stage.
Relax thoroughly is first stage, then you must move to the next.
The next stage is to focus on breathing in and breathing out.
You feel uncomfortable because you are not familiar with it.
When you just relax, you meet the obstacles gradually, it proves you can't stop on this stage. Of coure you can relax more when you feel tight, or you can open your eyes temporarily.
Or you put your attention on other thing and this way calms that you must know other method and practice it.
7.
初果=rid 我见、戒禁取、疑
2果=rid 我见、戒禁取、疑 but still a little 貪瞋癡
3果=rid 我见、戒禁取、疑、欲貪、瞋恚
4果=rid 色貪、無色貪、掉舉、慢、無明
human realm's 欲 + 5 percepts + 慈悲喜捨, one will go to 欲界
