Visuddhimagga III-7

Dutiyaduke tīsu bhūmīsu kusalacittekaggatā lokiyo samādhi. Ariyamaggasampayuttā ekaggatā lokuttaro samādhīti evaṃ lokiyalokuttaravasena duvidho.

（2）（世间、出世间）第二种二法中：三界内的善心一境性为「世间定」。与圣道相应的一境性为「出世间定」。如是依世间与出世间为二种。

Ñ(III,7): 3. In the second dyad mundane concentration is profitable unification of mind in the three planes. Supramundane concentration is the unification associated with the noble paths. So it is of two kinds as mundane and supramundane.
