[340] Furthermore, Ānanda, a bhikkhu—not attending to the perception of the base of nothingness, not attending to the perception of the base of neither-perception-nor-non-perception—attends to the oneness dependent on the signless concentration of mind (animitta cetosamādhi). His mind (citta) leaps forth into that signless concentration (samādhi) of mind, becomes confident, steadies, and is resolved upon it. He understands thus: 'Whatever disturbances there might be dependent on the perception of the base of nothingness, those are not present here; whatever disturbances there might be dependent on the perception of the base of neither-perception-nor-non-perception, those are not present here. There is present only this measure of disturbance, namely, that connected with the six sense bases (āyatana), dependent on this very body and conditioned by life.' He understands: 'This field of perception is empty of the perception of the base of nothingness'; he understands: 'This field of perception is empty of the perception of the base of neither-perception-nor-non-perception.' 'And there is present only this non-emptiness, namely, that connected with the six sense bases, dependent on this very body and conditioned by life.' Thus he regards it as empty of what is not there; but as to what remains there, he understands that which is present thus: 'This is present.' Thus, Ānanda, this too is his genuine, undistorted, pure descent into emptiness.
