भास्करनन्दि-विरचितः
: 30 The syllables of your name [e.g., arhat],
your radiant image of a yogi, your various powers": By contemplating on them
other than the supreme spirit, applauded is this dhyāna, as the rūpastha.
31 Or meditating on Lord Arhat in his embodied image,
pure, radiant, distinct from his self, Adorned with manifold faculties, such as miracles,
is dhyāna, the rūpastha.
32 : The rūpātīta should occur to him,
a pure-minded-soul who contemplates on you, You in the state of a self, different from a body,
not confined to a body, but abiding as consciou sness
33 The self, abiding in innumerable space-points,
characterized by perfect knowledge
and perfect perception, The agent, the enjoyer,
and existent without form, ;
