瑜伽論記 2.73

2.73

From here downward, the fourth [section] encourages revulsion toward the three realms and the aspiring pursuit of the taintless. Regarding 'it is also said that there is joy with tasting, up to being subsumed under two realms': here there are two explanations. One says: joy with tasting is the joy of the desire realm; joy free from tasting is the joy associated with the stage of falling back, the stage of abiding, and the pure dhyāna of the first two dhyānas; and joy with supreme freedom from tasting is the joy associated with the stage of excellence and the stage of determination. These two are only of the form realm, which is called 'being subsumed under two realms'. Another says: in the exposition of many realms, three realms are spoken of—the form realm, the formless realm, and the realm of cessation; both the desire and form realms are called the form realm. Here, joy with tasting is the joy associated with craving in the desire realm and the first two dhyānas; joy free from tasting is the non-defiled joy in the desire realm and the first two dhyānas; and joy with supreme freedom from tasting is subsumed under the taintless realm of cessation. The first two fall under the form realm, and the latter one falls under the realm of cessation; hence it is said to be 'subsumed under two realms'. This relies on the 'pleasure of abiding' and does not mean 'feeling pleasure': when entering the attainment of cessation, the body is still and unmoving; this is called the pleasure of abiding.
