4.14

In Fascicle Sixty-Three, concentration, one-pointedness of mind, calm abiding, and the meaning of abiding are explained. Among these names, regarding the stage of equipoise, there are three explanations: the true meaning extends to both states with-mind and mindless, referring exclusively to all merits within the state of absorption; because the three meanings of equipoise apply to it in principle, all distracted states are not this stage. The name samādhi designates the mental factor of concentration among the object-determining factors, and universally subsumes all states with-mind. One-pointedness of mind extends to both absorption and distracted states, as distinguished in the four permutations in the Commentary.
