On the passage where the Śāstra says, 'Here, intrinsic identity [...] the name existence-attachment is established': This explains intrinsic identity as being named 'existence'. The meditative attainments (samāpatti) and the physical basis are both intrinsic identity, not external objects. 'Existence' has many varieties, as when one speaks of the three existences, which are the three realms. What is called 'existence' here refers to intrinsic identity. Attachment in the upper two realms mostly relishes intrinsic identity, rather than relishing external objects. Because it is free from sensual attachment (kāmarāga), the name existence-attachment is established only in the upper two.
