## Chapter 5: The Ten Shrutakhanda Sutra
**40**
**142**
If, after the attainment of the knowledge of one's past lives, a being experiences a peaceful vision of the gods, where they can see the radiance of the principal gods, endowed with full powers like divine increase, divine brilliance, divine influence, and the power of creation, their mind attains samadhi. This is because if the form of the gods, as heard from the scriptures, is directly witnessed in samadhi, the mind naturally inclines towards samadhi.
Based on this, many argue that in samadhi, one sees the Lord, but in reality, it is only the vision of the gods. Remember, the vision of the gods is always peaceful and radiant.
The soul that experiences the emergence of samadhi also attains avadhi-jnana (clairvoyance), enabling them to see all worldly objects as if they were in their hand. This brings an extraordinary joy to their soul, and they become absorbed in samadhi once again.
All the fruits mentioned above depend on dharmachinta (reflection on dharma). Therefore, all beings should first engage in dharmachinta. Now, the sutrakar (author of the sutra) describes the remaining five samadhis:
**10.**
* **Ohidasan** (vision of the gods) may arise before the emergence of **asamuppanna-puvve** (knowledge of the future).
* **Man-pajjav-nana** (knowledge of the mind) may arise before the emergence of **asamuppanna-puvve**. This knowledge arises when one understands the mind's nature in the midst of human beings, in the midst of the earth, in the midst of the ocean, and in the midst of the five senses.
* **Kevala-nana** (omniscience) may arise before the emergence of **asamuppanna-puvve**. This knowledge arises when one knows the entire universe.
* **Kevala-dassan** (omniscient vision) may arise before the emergence of **asamuppanna-puvve**. This vision arises when one sees the entire universe.
* **Kevala-maran** (omniscient death) may arise before the emergence of **asamuppanna-puvve**. This death leads to the complete cessation of all suffering.
