4.36

If one opens the coarse and reveals the wondrous, ānāpāna is itself the Mahāyāna. The real mark of the dharma realm contains and sustains all phenomena; apart from this, there is no other wonder. Hence we know that the buddhas' attaining the Way, turning the wheel of the Dharma, and entering nirvāṇa all take place in the fourth dhyāna. Seeing the real mark within the fourth dhyāna is called dhyāna-pāramitā; how much more so for the other concentrations! This is the meaning of the absolute wondrousness. The holy practice of concentration is finished.
