2.（第二禅）于此等五自在中曾修行自在，并自熟练的初禅出定，觉得此定是近于敌对的五盖，因寻与伺粗，故禅支弱，见此过失已，于第二禅寂静作意，取消了对于初禅的希求，为证第二禅，当作瑜伽行。

Ñ(IV,137): When he has once acquired mastery in these five ways, then on emerging from the now familiar first jhāna he can regard the flaws in it in this way: 'This attainment is threatened by the nearness of the hindrances, and its factors are weakened by the grossness of the applied and sustained thought'. He can bring the second jhāna to mind as quieter and so end his attachment to the first jhāna and set about doing what is needed for attaining the second.
