meditation. Identification of these three is the climax or accomplishment par excellence. (2) [234] ।
Notes : समापत्ति is defined in the next stanza. The Pravacanasāra mentions :
जो जाणदि अरिहते दव्यत्त-गुणत्त-पज्जवत्तेहिं । सो जाणदि अप्पाणं मोहो खलु जादि तस्स लयं ॥ ... The विशेषावश्यक says the same thing :- . जं थिरमज्झवसाणं तं झाणं चलं तयं चित्तं । .. तं होज्ज भावणा वा अणुप्पेहा वा अहब चिंता ॥
('ध्यानशतक'; गाथा-२) (2) [ 234] मणाविव प्रतिच्छाया समापत्तिः परात्मनः ।। क्षीणवृत्तौ भवेद् ध्यानादन्तरात्मनि निर्मले ॥३॥ ॥२३५॥ maṇāviva praticchāyā

Meaning : Just as reflection takes place in a gem, it also occurs as regards the Super-Soul through meditation, in the conscience which is pure and in which all the thoughts have been stopped. (3) [235]
Notes : समापत्ति means attainment. Whose attainment? The reply is Super-Soul's. How ? Through meditation. But of what type should be the conscience of the
meditator ? It should be without वृत्तिs. So चित्तवृत्तिनिरोध is the main thing. Compare :- मणेरिवाभिजातस्य, क्षीणवृत्तेरसंशयम् ।
तात्स्थ्यात्तदञ्जनत्वाच्च, समापत्तिः प्रकीर्तिता ।। (3) [ 2351
