[471] Having abandoned these five hindrances (nīvaraṇa), corruptions of the mind (citta) that weaken wisdom, then, quite secluded from sensual pleasures, secluded from unwholesome states, he enters upon and dwells in the first jhāna, which is accompanied by thought (vitakka) and examination (vicāra), with rapture and pleasure born of seclusion. He drenches, steeps, fills, and pervades this very body with the rapture and pleasure born of seclusion, so that there is no part of his whole body that is unpervaded by the rapture and pleasure born of seclusion. Just as, bhikkhus, a skilled bath attendant or a bath attendant's apprentice, having heaped bath powder into a bronze dish and sprinkled it again and again with water, would knead it, so that that ball of bath powder, taken up by moisture, saturated with moisture, is pervaded by moisture within and without, and yet does not ooze—even so, bhikkhus, a bhikkhu drenches, steeps, fills, and pervades this very body with the rapture and pleasure born of seclusion, so that there is no part of his whole body that is unpervaded by the rapture and pleasure born of seclusion.
