2.64
Regarding 'to manifest that the Tathāgata has attained sovereign power': this explains the preceding 'right mindfulness unmoving' and 'contemplating with knowledge as it truly is'; through the sovereignty of the power of samādhi, he attains immobility of body and mind and observation as it truly is. 'When the Tathāgata enters samādhi, no one can startle him' explains 'arose calmly.' Because there are no external conditions to startle him, he is able to arise calmly from samādhi. The former clarifies that inwardly he possesses sovereign power; the present clarifies that there is no startling from external conditions. Both praise the samādhi of immeasurable meanings as possessing these two powers.
