The \*Nirvāṇa-sūtra\* says: "\*Śamatha\* is named 'able to extinguish', because it can extinguish all knots of affliction; it is also named 'able to harmonize', because it can harmonize the unwholesome and unvirtuous dharmas of the sense faculties; it is also called 'quiescent', because it can make the three karmas quiescent; it is also called 'distancing', because it can cause sentient beings to leave behind the five desires; it is also called 'able to clarify', because it can clarify the three defiled dharmas of greed, anger, and delusion. For these reasons, it is named the mark of concentration (samādhi)." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.75](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4.75) - [Next: 4.77](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4.77) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131~en-mt.4.76) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [大般涅槃經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.mahaparinirvana-mahayana*zh-t375.28.89) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4.76](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4.76) · Pramāṇa
