5.38

Second, explaining the marks of realizing anāgamya concentration: following this desire-realm concentration, body and mind become serenely empty and open, losing the desire-realm body. While sitting, one does not see head, hands, or seat, just like empty space; this is anāgamya concentration. What is called "anāgamya" is because this stage can generate the first dhyāna; that is, it is the expedient concentration for the first dhyāna, also called future dhyāna, and also called the suddenly serene mind. When realizing this concentration, there are definitely marks of shallowness and depth, which will not be explained in full now.
