瑜伽論記 4.253

4.253

The statement "Forms of the desire realm are the small forms overcome in the stations of mastery, etc." answers that the forms contemplated are the objects of the stations of mastery, because one contemplates them initially with the notion of resolute conviction. "Whether pleasing or unpleasing, etc." answers regarding the mental mode. The first three liberations induce the stations of mastery, totality stations, and the various noble supernatural powers; the latter four liberations, according to their capacity, induce virtues such as non-contention. The statement "Born in the desire realm, having already abandoned the desire of the form realm" explains the meaning of "internally without the notion of form," because one has previously relied on the absorption of the station of infinite space to abandon the defilement of the form realm.
