33. 1. 1.

Samadhi Samapatti Ý Concentration Attainments

1. I heard thus. At one time the Blessed One was living in the monastery offered by Anathapindika in Jeta's grove in Savatthi.

2. The Blessed One addressed the monks from there:

3. ßMonks, these four develop concentration. What four?

4. ßMonks, a certain one developing concentration (jhana) is clever in bringing the mind to one point (samadhi), not clever in attainments (samapatti).

5. ßMonks, a certain one developing concentration is clever in attainments, not clever in bringing the mind to one point.

6. ßMonks, a certain one developing concentration is neither clever in bringing the mind to one point nor clever in attainments.

7. ßMonks, a certain one developing concentration is clever in bringing the mind to one point and clever in attainments.

8. ßMonks, of these four developing concentration the one who is clever in bringing the mind to one point and clever in attainments is the foremost, the chief, the released, the noble, and the excellent.

9. ßJust as the cow gives milk, from milk is curd, from curd butter, from butter ghee, and from ghee the cream of ghee, in the same manner, a person clever in bringing the mind to one point and clever in attainments is the foremost, the chief, the released, the noble, and the excellent.û

Sàtaccakari-Sappàyakàri Ý Persevering and Suitable

1. I heard thus. At one time the Blessed One was living in the monastery offered by Anàthapiõóika in Jeta's grove in Sàvatthi.

2. The Blessed One addressed the monks from there:

3. ßMonks, these four develop concentration. What four?

4. ßMonks, a certain one developing concentration, perseveres in the not suitable.

5. ßMonks, a certain one developing concentration suitably brings the mind to one point, does not persevere.

6. ßMonks, a certain one developing concentration neither persevere nor brings the mind to one point suitably.

7. ßMonks, a certain one developing concentration perseveres and suitably brings the mind to one point.

8. ßMonks, of these four developing concentration the one who perseveres and suitably brings the mind to one point and is the foremost, the chief, the released, the noble, and the excellent.

9. ßJust as the cow gives milk, from milk is curd, from curd butter, from butter ghee, and from ghee the cream of ghee, in the same manner, a person who perseveres and suitably brings the mind to one point is the foremost, the chief, the released, the noble, and the excellent.û



Notes

1. Gocara, (pasture) also means, ßsuitable place.û
