It is collectively called the Brahmā worlds because \*brahmā\* means pure—being free from defilement of desire, produced by dhyāna, and distinct from distraction and disturbance. This realm contains eighteen heavens in all. According to the \*Kośa\*, which states: "The \[first\] three dhyānas have three each, and the fourth dhyāna has eight," the Heaven of Non-conception (Asaṃjñisattva) is excluded. Relying on the Mahāsāṃghika school, in agreement with the present sūtra, the Heaven of Non-conception is added. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.9.1) - [Next: 9.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.9.3) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799~en-mt.9.2) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.9.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.9.2) · Pramāṇa
