Visuddhimagga V-17

Lohitakasiṇakathā

（7）赤遍

[THE RED KASIṆA]

Notes in Chinese translation:「赤遍」（lohita-kasiṇa），《解脱道论》「赤一切入」。

96. Lohitakasiṇepi eseva nayo.

赤遍亦同样，

Ñ(V,17): Likewise with the red kasiṇa;

Vuttañhetaṃ lohitakasiṇaṃ uggaṇhanto lohitakasmiṃ nimittaṃ gaṇhāti pupphasmiṃ vā vatthasmiṃ vā vaṇṇadhātuyā vāti.

即如此说，「把取赤遍之人对于花 [PTS 174] 或布或有颜色的东西而取其赤相」。

Ñ: for this is said: 'One who is learning the red kasiṇa apprehends the sign in red, [174] either in a flower or in a cloth or in a colour element'.

Tasmā idhāpi katādhikārassa puññavato tathārūpaṃ bandhujīvakādimālāgacchaṃ vā pupphasantharaṃ vā lohitakavatthamaṇidhātūnaṃ vā aññataraṃ disvāva nimittaṃ uppajjati.

故于此中，若有过去经验而具福者，则看见任何这样赤色的盘陀祇梵迦 等的花丛或花席，或赤色的布及宝石与有颜色的东西，都能生起其相。

Ñ: Therefore here too, when someone has merit, having had previous practice, the sign arises in him when he sees a bandhujīvaka (hibiscus) bush, etc., in flower, or such flowers spread out, or a red cloth or gem or colour element.

Notes in the Chinese translation: 盘陀祇梵迦（bandhujīvakā）。《解脱道论》「盘偷时婆」。
