6.66
Explanation: Taking the cittas and caittas of neither-perception-nor-non-perception as objects, one generates a mind of revulsion and enters that concentration; this is said in terms of initial cultivation. 'Relying on cessation' means spontaneously taking the cittas and caittas of the sphere of neither-perception-nor-non-perception as objects and generating revulsion and so forth; being similar to the former, it says 'is also like this'; this is said in terms of long practice. Another explanation: first, one takes conditioned formations as objects and generates a mind with the notion of revulsion and relinquishment; later, one takes the unconditioned as object and generates a mind with the notion of revulsion and relinquishment. The meaning of revulsion and relinquishment being identical, it says 'is also like this'; this is also distinguished in terms of initial and long-standing cultivation.
