Answer: The first dhyāna has two kinds: first, complete; second, incomplete. If all sixteen sensations arise, this is the complete first dhyāna and is superior; if one or two sensations arise, it may also be called the first dhyāna. Why? Because a single sensation fully possesses the ten dharmas of absorption and their retinue, the five factors, are accomplished; however, this first dhyāna is not called complete.
