妙法蓮華經文句 2.119

2.119

"Luminous" refers to the second dhyāna, which includes Parīttābha, Apramāṇābha, and Ābhāsvara; the third dhyāna includes Parīttaśubha, Apramāṇaśubha, and Śubhakṛtsna; the fourth dhyāna includes Anabhraka, also called "unobstructed", Puṇyaprasava, also called "receiving merit", Bṛhatphala, also called "vast fruition", and Asañjñisattva, also called "without ideation". Furthermore, there are the five anāgāmin heavens: Avṛha, Atapa, Sudṛśa, Sudarśana, and Akaniṣṭha, also called Great Sovereign, which is Maheśvara. The sūtra text maintains brevity and does not list them completely, but merely uses "and so forth" to include these various devas. Following the pattern, there are the teaching approach, origin and traces, and contemplation of mind, which one may reflect upon for oneself.
