[587] Sāvatthī. Bhikkhus, there are these four kinds of meditators (jhāyī). What four? Here, bhikkhus, a certain meditator is skilled in concentration (samādhi) with regard to concentration but is not skilled in emergence (vuṭṭhāna) with regard to concentration. Here again, bhikkhus, a certain meditator is skilled in emergence with regard to concentration but is not skilled in concentration with regard to concentration. Here again, bhikkhus, a certain meditator is neither skilled in concentration with regard to concentration nor skilled in emergence with regard to concentration. Here again, bhikkhus, a certain meditator is both skilled in concentration with regard to concentration and skilled in emergence with regard to concentration. Therein, bhikkhus, the meditator who is both skilled in concentration with regard to concentration and skilled in emergence with regard to concentration — he is, of these four kinds of meditators, the foremost, the best, the pre-eminent, the highest, and the most excellent. Just as, bhikkhus, from a cow comes milk, from milk curd, from curd butter, from butter ghee, from ghee … and the most excellent.
