掉 [diao]—(diào) — [Technical term] Refers to 舉 [ju] (diàojǔ). It is an affliction (煩惱 [fan nao], fánnǎo) that causes the mind to be agitated and restless.
The Abhidharma-kośa-śāstra (俱舍論 [ju she lun], Jùshèlùn), Volume 4, states: "Diào refers to diàojǔ, which makes the mind unquiet."
The Vijñaptimātratā-siddhi-śāstra (唯識論 [wei shi lun], Wéishílùn), Volume 6, states: "What is diàojǔ? Its nature is to make the mind unquiet regarding its object. Its function is to obstruct the practice of equanimity and samatha (奢摩他 [she mo ta], shē mó tuō)."
掉—【術語】掉舉也。令心高舉，不安靜之煩惱也。俱舍論四曰：「掉謂掉舉，令心不靜。」唯識論六曰：「云何掉舉？令心於境不寂靜為性，能障行捨奢摩他為業。」
[shù yǔ] diào jǔ yě. lìng xīn gāo jǔ, bù ān jìng zhī fán nǎo yě. jù shě lùn sì yuē: “diào wèi diào jǔ, lìng xīn bù jìng.” wéi shí lùn liù yuē: “yún hé diào jǔ？ lìng xīn yú jìng bù jì jìng wèi xìng, néng zhàng xíng shě shē mó tā wèi yè.”
