词语：pa^daka jjha^na
【pa^daka jjha^na 】
This term is not found in the Sutta Canon, nor apparently in the Abh. Canon, but very often used in the exegetical literature. The idea, however, expressed thereby, is implied in many places of the old sutta texts, e.g., A. IX, 36, where it is shown how the jha^nas, one after the other, may serve as basis, or foundation (as mental object), for vipassana^. In many of the old sutta texts it is also shown how the 4th jha^na forms the foundation for the attainment of the 5 higher spiritual powers (abhin~n~a^).
