Immersion Samādhisutta

At Sāvatthī. Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

“Mendicants, I will teach you noble right immersion with its vital conditions and its prerequisites. “Ariyaṁ vo, bhikkhave, sammāsamādhiṁ desessāmi saupanisaṁ saparikkhāraṁ. Listen … Taṁ suṇātha.

And what is noble right immersion with its vital conditions and its prerequisites? Katamo ca, bhikkhave, ariyo sammāsamādhi saupaniso saparikkhāro? There are right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, and right mindfulness. Seyyathidaṁ—sammādiṭṭhi …pe… sammāsati.

Unification of mind with these seven factors as prerequisites Yā kho, bhikkhave, imehi sattahaṅgehi cittassa ekaggatā saparikkhāratā—is called noble right immersion ‘with its vital conditions’ and also ‘with its prerequisites’.” ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, ariyo sammāsamādhi saupaniso itipi saparikkhāro itipī”ti.
