Tattha ekavidhakoṭṭhāso uttānatthoyeva.1. Herein, the section dealing with that of one kind is evident in meaning.

Duvidhakoṭṭhāse2. In the section dealing with that of two kinds,

channaṃ anussatiį¹­į¹­hānānaṃ maraṇassatiyāaccess concentration is the unification of mind obtained by the following, that is to say, the six recollections, mindfulness of death,

upasamānussatiyā āhāre paṭikūlasaññāya catudhātuvavatthānassāti imesaṃ vasena laddhacittekaggatā,the recollection of peace, the perception of repulsiveness in nutriment, and the defining of the four elements,

yā ca appanāsamādhīnaṃ pubbabhāge ekaggatā, ayaṃ upacārasamādhi.and it is the unification that precedes absorption concentration.

ā€˜ā€˜Paį¹­hamassa jhānassa parikammaṃ paį¹­hamassa jhānassa anantarapaccayena paccayo’’ti ādivacanato pana yā parikammānantarā ekaggatā, ayaṃ appanāsamādhÄ«tiAbsorption concentration is the unification that follows immediately upon the preliminary-work (IV.74) because of the words, ā€œThe first-jhāna preliminary-work is a condition, as proximity condition, for the first jhānaā€ (Paį¹­į¹­h II 350 (Se).

evaṃ upacārappanāvasena duvidho.So it is of two kinds as access and absorption.

Dutiyaduke tīsu bhūmīsu kusalacittekaggatā lokiyo samādhi.3. In the second dyad mundane concentration is profitable unification of mind in the three planes.

Ariyamaggasampayuttā ekaggatā lokuttaro samādhītiSupramundane concentration is the unification associated with the noble paths.

evaṃ lokiyalokuttaravasena duvidho.So it is of two kinds as mundane and supramundane.

Tatiyaduke4. In the third dyad

Upacārasamādhi pana siyā sappītiko, siyā nippītikotiBut access concentration may be with happiness or without happiness.

evaṃ sappītikanippītikavasena duvidho.So it is of two kinds as with happiness and without happiness.

Catutthaduke5. In the fourth dyad

catukkanaye tīsu pañcakanaye catūsu jhānesu ekaggatā sukhasahagato samādhi.concentration accompanied by bliss is the unification in three jhānas in the fourfold and four in the fivefold reckoning.

Upacārasamādhi pana siyā sukhasahagato, siyā upekkhāsahagatotiAccess concentration may be accompanied by bliss or accompanied by equanimity.

evaṃ sukhasahagataupekkhāsahagatavasena duvidho.So it is of two kinds as accompanied by bliss and accompanied by equanimity.
