華嚴經內章門等雜孔目章 4.49

4.49

九次第定者，謂初禪、二禪、三禪、四禪、空處、識處、無所有處、非想非非想處、滅盡定。從初禪心起，次入第二禪，不令餘心得入，若善若垢。如是乃至減受想心定，出入不越，名為次第定。此義是三乘，亦通小乘用。若一乘教所目，即屬於一乘。餘義如別章。

Regarding the nine successive meditative attainments, they are: the first dhyāna, second dhyāna, third dhyāna, fourth dhyāna, the base of boundless space, the base of boundless consciousness, the base of nothingness, the base of neither-perception-nor-non-perception, and the attainment of cessation. Arising from the mind of the first dhyāna, one next enters the second dhyāna without allowing any other mind to enter, whether wholesome or defiled. Thus up to the concentration that diminishes minds of sensation and perception, entering and emerging without skipping over, it is called successive meditative attainment. This meaning belongs to the Triyāna and is also used across the Hīnayāna. If designated by the Ekayāna teaching, it belongs to the Ekayāna. The remaining meanings are as in the separate chapter.
