Samadhi (3)

There are two kinds of samadhi in volume 28 of Da Zhi Du Lun: (1) samadhi in Sheng Wen FA, i.e. empty samadhi, Wu Yuan samadhi and Wu Zuo samadhi; (2) samadhi in Mahayana FA, i.e. samadhi with perception, without perception and without perception. Secondly, in the triple samadhi, there are the empty samadhi, the formless samadhi, the formless samadhi, and the formless Samadhi. According to the above two theories, samadhi in the narrow sense refers to samadhi of emptiness and equality, while in the broad sense it refers to the four Chan and other fixed points.

In primitive Buddhism, such as ahan and other classics, samadhi is generally the samadhi of four Chan and eight Ding, emptiness, no phase, no wish and awareness. There are countless samadhi in Mahayana scriptures, such as the one in fahua Sutra, the six in the old version of Huayan Sutra, the fifteen in Dafang et al. Daji Sutra, the eleven in Chaori Ming samadhi Sutra, and the eight samadhi in DAPIN Prajna Sutra. There are also many samadhi classics with samadhi as the main content, such as the samadhi Sutra of banzhou, the samadhi Sutra of Huiyin, the samadhi Sutra of self oath, the samadhi Sutra of Foyin, the samadhi Sutra of chanting Buddha, the samadhi Sutra of Vajra, etc.
