'The eighteen Brahma heavens': the first, second, and third dhyānas have three heavens each, and the fourth dhyāna has nine heavens; all are free from the defilement of desire, and are collectively designated 'Brahma.' 'Admonishing them with superior wisdom': Jingxi states: 'As for the factors of dhyāna contemplation, they are wisdom but not superior; Brahma \[beings\] have also previously attained them and do not hold them in high esteem. Therefore, he manifests the four kinds of world-transcending superior wisdom, pure dhyāna contemplation, and the immaculate dhyāna, which are comprehensively luminous and exceptionally superior, cultivating them upon the foundational \[dhyānas\] without being attached.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.113](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.113) - [Next: 4.115](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.115) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779~en-mt.4.114) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.114](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.114) · Pramāṇa
