7.15

息既虛凝，心相漸細，患數為麁，意不欲數，爾時行者應當放數修隨。隨亦有二種：一者、修隨；二者、與隨相應。修隨者，捨數法，一心依隨息之出入，心住息緣，無分散意，是名修隨。二者、與隨相應，心既漸細，覺息長短，遍身入出息，任運相依，意慮怡然凝靜，是名與隨相應。

When the breath has become subtle and condensed, the characteristics of mind gradually become subtle; one finds fault with counting as coarse and has no wish to count in mind. At that time, the practitioner should let go of counting and cultivate following. Following also has two kinds: first, cultivating following; second, corresponding with following. Cultivating following: letting go of the method of counting, one single-mindedly follows the inhalation and exhalation of the breath; the mind abides on the object of breath without any scattered thoughts; this is called cultivating following. Second, corresponding with following: as the mind has gradually become subtle, one perceives the length of the breath, and the in-breaths and out-breaths pervade the body, spontaneously relying on each other; the thoughts are joyful and condensed in quietude; this is called corresponding with following.
