Visuddhimagga VIII-214

231. Tassevamanuyuñjato na cirasseva nimittaṃ upaṭṭhāti.

如是精勤，不久便现起（取相与似）相。

Ñ(VIII,214): When he does so in this way, the sign soon appears to him.



Taṃ panetaṃ na sabbesaṃ ekasadisaṃ hoti.

而彼相（的现起）并非一切都同样的，有一部分人说，

Ñ: But it is not the same for all; on the contrary, some say that



Apica kho kassaci sukhasamphassaṃ uppādayamāno tūlapicu viya kappāsapicu viya vātadhārā viya ca upaṭṭhātīti ekacce āhu.

有人于现起（之相）而生乐触，如于兜罗绵，如于迦巴率绵及如于微风中。

Ñ: when it appears it does so to certain people producing a light touch like cotton or silk-cotton or a draught.
