釋禪波羅蜜次第法門 1.81

1.81

今就色門中，即開為二，如經中說：「二為甘露門：一者、不淨觀門；二者、阿那波那門。」心門唯有一門，如經中說：「能觀心性，名為上定。」開色別立於心，此則禪門有三，所謂：一、世間禪門；二、出世間禪門；三、出世間上上禪門。故《大集經》云：「有三種攝心：一者、出法攝心；二者、滅法攝心；三者、非出非滅法攝心。」

Now, within the gate of form, it is divided into two. As a sūtra says: 'Two are the gates to the deathless: first, the gate of the contemplation of impurity; second, the gate of ānāpāna.' The gate of mind has only one gate. As a sūtra says: 'Being able to contemplate the nature of the mind is called the supreme concentration.' By dividing form and separately establishing mind, there are then three dhyāna gates, namely: first, the mundane dhyāna gate; second, the supramundane dhyāna gate; third, the supreme supramundane dhyāna gate. Hence the Mahāsaṃnipāta Sūtra says: 'There are three kinds of collecting the mind: first, collecting the mind through emerging dharmas; second, collecting the mind through ceasing dharmas; third, collecting the mind through dharmas that neither emerge nor cease.'
