One master says: 'Stopping has no separate realization; it only serves as a prior expedient means for the various dhyānas. If there is anything realized, it belongs to the other dhyānas.' This meaning is precisely what is discussed below in explaining the arousal of wholesome roots. Second, a master says: 'Stopping not only universally arouses the various dhyānas, but also has its own distinct method of realization, which is the five-wheel dhyāna. Why is that? All other Dharma gates each have separate methods for settling the mind and practicing, after which they successively arouse different dhyānas.' Here we explain that in this stopping, merely by restraining the mind in one place, the five wheels are naturally aroused. Just as when clear water has no ripples, myriad images all appear, so too is stopping. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3.37) - [Next: 3.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3.39) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916~en-mt.3.38) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.3.38) · Pramāṇa
