Visuddhimagga X-12

Ettāvatā cesa ‘‘sabbaso rūpasaññānaṃ samatikkamā paṭighasaññānaṃ atthaṅgamā nānattasaññānaṃ amanasikārā ‘ananto ākāso’ti ākāsānañcāyatanaṃ upasampajja viharatī’’ti vuccati (vibha. 508; dī. ni. 2.129).

对于这样的修行者，即如所说：「超越一切色想灭有对想，种种想不作意，（思）『无边虚空』，空无边处具足而住」。

[Text and Commentary]

Ñ(X,12): And at this point it is said: 'With the complete surmounting (samatikkamā) of perceptions of matter, with the disappearance of perceptions of resistance, with non-attention to perceptions of variety, [aware of] "unbounded space", he enters upon and dwells in the base consisting of boundless space' (Vbh. 245).
