5.340

述曰:何意有定?專注一類所執我境,不暫捨故。如於志念緣曾受境,此緣一物,故有定也。不同前師,彼無念故,緣新新現境故亦無定,此中有之所存別故。

The Commentary states: For what reason is concentration present? Because it focuses exclusively on a uniform apprehended self-object without relinquishing it for an instant. Just as with intention and mindfulness taking a previously experienced object as their object, this takes a single thing as its object; therefore concentration is present. This is not like the previous master: because he posited no mindfulness, taking ever-new present objects, there was also no concentration; here it is present because what is posited is different.
