Visuddhimagga V-42

Na kevalañca kasiṇeyeva, aññesupi kammaṭṭhānesu etesamekassapi bhāvanā na ijjhati.

像这样的人不但在遍中，就是在一切业处之中一个也不能修习成就的。

Ñ(V,42): And this does not apply only to kasiṇas; for none of them will succeed in developing any meditation subject at all.

Tasmā vigatavipākāvaraṇenapi kulaputtena kammāvaraṇañca kilesāvaraṇañca ārakā parivajjetvā saddhammassavanasappurisūpanissayādīhi saddhañca chandañca paññañca vaḍḍhetvā kammaṭṭhānānuyoge yogo karaṇīyoti.

所以必须由于离诸异熟障的善男子，遥远地回避了业障与烦恼障，闻正法而亲近善人增长其信，愿与智能，勤行业处瑜伽。

Ñ: So the task of devotion to a meditation subject must be undertaken by a clansman who has no hindrance by kamma-result, who shuns hindrance by kamma and by defilement, and who fosters faith, zeal and understanding by listening to the Dhamma, frequenting good men, and so on.
