25.82

Regarding the treatise text “As the sūtra says: ‘I declare that by this he attains the four higher minds’”: the following verse of one line is the third part, which clarifies the distinctions among the three kinds of falling away. The “four higher mental states” refer to the four dhyānas. The point of this question is: The sūtra speaks of “unshakeable liberation of mind, falling away from dwelling in pleasant abiding in the present life,” which is the fruit of the unshakeable phenomenon. Now it is asked: on what basis does an unshakeable one fall away from dwelling in pleasant abiding in the present life? It is then answered by means of the three kinds of falling away.
