How could it be otherwise? The five factors arise together but differ in strength and overshadow one another; taking the perfected ones, the five factors are determined. It is like striking a bell with a mallet: there is a difference between the initial coarse tone and the subsequent subtle tone; the five factors are also like this. At first, the mark of applied thought directed toward the object is prominent, which does not prevent the other four factors, such as sustained thought, from already being present. Applied thought is strong, while sustained thought is not yet clear; when applied thought rests, sustained thought then becomes evident. Initially joy is already present; when sustained thought rests, the factor of joy is perfected. Initially bliss is already present, but bliss is not yet fully expressed; when joy rests, bliss is perfected. Initially one-pointedness of mind is already present, but it is agitated by the four factors; now, when bliss subsides, one-pointedness of mind is perfected. It is like opening a treasure trove for the first time: one perceives it to be treasure, recognizes its great value, and experiences joy, bliss, and the thought of stability, but does not yet know what kind of treasure it is. Next, one distinguishes gold from silver; having distinguished them, one receives them and gives rise to joy. Because of joy one experiences bliss, peacefully and contentedly settled in one mind. It is like a person who has eaten to the full and requires nothing further; it is also like entering a deep sleep compared to the five desires. Hence the treatise says: 'Like a person obtaining a treasure trove,' and so forth. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.32](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9.32) - [Next: 9.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9.34) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911~en-mt.9.33) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9.33](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1911.9.33) · Pramāṇa
