34.15

第七念休息者。謂心意想息。志性詳諦亦無卒暴。當專一心意樂閑居。常求方便入三昧定。常念不貪勝光常達。除諸亂想自致涅槃。不離休息便獲功德。是名念休息。

Seventh, 'mindfulness of cessation' means the thoughts of the mind are stilled, the disposition is deliberate and refined without precipitancy, and one should concentrate the mind, delighting in solitary quietude, constantly seeking expedients to enter samādhi meditation, constantly mindful of non-greed, with supreme light constantly penetrating. Eliminating all chaotic thoughts, one of oneself attains nirvāṇa. Never departing from cessation, one then obtains merit. This is termed 'mindfulness of cessation.'
