There is an opinion: These three are established on the basis of the partial detachment from desire regarding the two. That is to say, nominal entities of dharmas of the desire realm and the first dhyāna have not separated from desire with respect to both investigation and analysis; hence they are called the level with investigation and with analysis. In the intermediate dhyāna, nominal entities of dharmas have already separated from desire regarding investigation, but have not separated from desire regarding analysis; hence it is called the level without investigation and with analysis only. From the second dhyāna upward, nominal entities of dharmas in all levels have already separated from desire with respect to both investigation and analysis; hence it is called the level without investigation and without analysis. If one resides in lower levels and has fully separated from desire, they may also be called the level without investigation and without analysis. Therefore, the fourth fascicle of the Yogācārabhūmi later says: "Here, because of being separated from desire regarding investigation and analysis, it is called the level without investigation and without analysis, not because they do not manifest. Why is this? For one who has not separated from the desires of the desire realm, due to differences in instructional attention, at times a mind without investigation and without analysis also manifests. For one who has separated from the desire of investigation and analysis, investigation and analysis also manifest, as when emerging from that absorption or being born into that level."
