Commentary: Above, the demonic occurrences were explained; next below, the fourth part distinguishes and sets aside the true and the counterfeit. In this there are two parts: first, presenting the two concentrations—external and internal—to differentiate the heterodox and the correct; second, presenting the two concentrations—of principle and of phenomena—to clarify the true and the counterfeit. In the former, there are also two parts: first, clarifying heterodox concentration; second, revealing correct concentration. This is the first. What was said earlier—that causing people to attain various samādhis refers to what is attained by non-Buddhists and is not true samādhi—is because the concentrations of non-Buddhists are all incapable of subduing discriminative afflictions, are also not free from innate afflictions, and do not subdue the obstacle of the knowable. Pride and respect arise in response to concentration; presenting them together, it therefore says "not free from the mind of views, love, and conceit." Because they cannot subdue or extinguish the five entrenchments, internally they cling to heterodox concentration and externally they greedily seek fame and gain; hence it says "greedily attached to worldly fame, gain, and the like." Since that heterodox concentration has such characteristics, realising and knowing this, one should cast it aside. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.85](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.5.85) - [Next: 5.87](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.5.87) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814~en-mt.5.86) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [大乘起信論義記](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1846.3.460) — Classical Chinese - [大乘起信論略述](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2813.2.204) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.5.86](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2814.5.86) · Pramāṇa
