[47] "Brahmin, my energy (vīriya) was aroused and unflagging; my mindfulness was established and unmuddled; my body was tranquil and untroubled; my mind (citta) was concentrated (samādhi) and unified. Brahmin, quite secluded from sensual pleasures, secluded from unwholesome states, I entered upon and dwelt in the first jhāna, which is accompanied by thought (vitakka) and examination (vicāra), with rapture and pleasure born of seclusion. With the subsiding of thought and examination, I entered upon and dwelt in the second jhāna, which has internal confidence and unification of mind, is without thought and without examination, and has rapture and pleasure born of concentration. With the fading away of rapture, I dwelt equanimous and, mindful and clearly comprehending, I experienced pleasure with the body; I entered upon and dwelt in the third jhāna, on account of which the noble ones declare: 'Equanimous and mindful, one dwells in pleasure.' With the abandoning of pleasure and the abandoning of pain (dukkha), and with the previous passing away of joy and grief, I entered upon and dwelt in the fourth jhāna, which is neither painful nor pleasant and has purity of mindfulness due to equanimity."
