Visuddhimagga IV-153

Ettāvatā ca panesa pītiyā ca virāgā upekkhako ca viharati sato ca sampajāno, sukhañca kāyena paṭisaṃvedeti, yaṃ taṃ ariyā ācikkhanti upekkhako satimā sukhavihārīti, tatiyaṃ jhānaṃ upasampajja viharatīti (dī. ni. 1.230; dha. sa. 163).

以上的修行者:「与由离喜故,而住于舍、念与正知及乐以身受 ── 诸圣者说:『成就舍念乐住』── 为第三禅具足住。」

[THE THIRD JHĀNA]

Ñ(IV,153): And at this point, 'With the fading away of happiness as well he dwells in equanimity, and mindful and fully aware, he feels bliss with his body; he enters upon and dwells in the third jhāna, on account of which the noble ones announce: “He dwells in bliss who has equanimity and is mindful” ' (Vbh. 245),



Evamanena ekaṅgavippahīnaṃ duvaṅgasamannāgataṃ tividhakalyāṇaṃ dasalakkhaṇasampannaṃ tatiyaṃ jhānaṃ adhigataṃ hoti pathavīkasiṇaṃ.

如是他一支舍离,二支具足,有三种善,十相成就,证得地遍的第三禅。

Ñ: and so he has attained the third jhāna, which abandons one factor, possesses two factors, is good in three ways, possesses ten characteristics, and is of the earth kasiṇa.
