Third, the refined dhyānas. Regarding "the nine successive [attainments]": one further cultivates and refines the substance and function of the contemplative dhyānas to make them masterfully practiced. Regarding "successive": when entering dhyāna, with deep mind and sharp wisdom, one can enter one dhyāna from another, mind succeeding mind without being interrupted by other thoughts; hence it is called successive concentration.
