7.30

In explaining the basis, it mentions: 1. body; 2. mind. Regarding 'Because it necessarily relies on body and mind, the in-and-out breaths proceed as appropriate', etc.: Jing says that this corresponds to the Vibhāṣā's 'relying on body and relying on mind according to appropriateness'. Regarding 'according to appropriateness', some say: 'In infancy the breath is slight; in middle age it is moderate; in old age it is plentiful.' Others say: 'Because of four factors it is called according to appropriateness: first, relying on the body; second, open breath passages; third, open pores; fourth, the coarse mind of the breath-stage being present.'
