Since the dharma-characteristics of the three samādhis and the nine attainments are the same, explaining it after the three samādhis does not contradict the meaning. As for the expression 'lion's play' (shizi fenxun): a metaphor is borrowed to illustrate the dharma. Just as a lion in the world bounds for two purposes: first, to shake off dust and dirt; second, being able to run forward and run backward with swiftness unlike other beasts. This samādhi is also like this: first, it shakes off the subtle delusions of ignorance that obstruct concentration; second, it can enter and emerge swiftly without interval, unlike the various dhyānas and attainments attained above; therefore, it is called the lion's play samādhi. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.108](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.2.108) - [Next: 2.110](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.2.110) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925~en-mt.2.109) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [維摩經略疏垂裕記](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.5.70) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.2.109](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1925.2.109) · Pramāṇa
