Keeping Right Mindfulness in the Heart

What should you do when your mind is easily carried away by deluded thoughts in daily life? As long as there is a right mindfulness in your mind, focus the mind single-pointedly on that right mindfulness and pay no attention to deluded thoughts; the mind will gradually settle on right mindfulness, and meditative concentration (dhyāna) will become complete. What is right mindfulness? It is a dharma you are currently contemplating deeply, or a thought free of greed, hatred, and delusion that can gather your consciousness at one point—such as the contemplation of mindfulness taught by the Buddha in the Sutra on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness.
