An impartial mind is neither suffering nor joy. When the practitioner wishes to leave the third dhyāna, they rebuke joy through various causes and conditions. Once joy has faded away and ceased, motionless meditative absorption arises together with equanimity; hence the inner mind is serene, experiencing neither suffering nor joy. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.251](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.1.251) - [Next: 1.253](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.1.253) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925~en-mt.1.252) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.1.252](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.1.252) · Pramāṇa
