sn40.8:1.1 “They speak of this thing called the ‘dimension of neither perception nor non-perception’.
sn40.8:1.2 What is the dimension of neither perception nor non-perception?
sn40.8:1.3 It occurred to me:
sn40.8:1.4 ‘It’s when a mendicant, going totally beyond the dimension of nothingness, enters and remains in the dimension of neither perception nor non-perception.
sn40.8:1.5 This is called the dimension of neither perception nor non-perception.’
sn40.8:1.6 And so … I was entering and remaining in the dimension of neither perception nor non-perception.
sn40.8:1.7 While I was in that meditation, perception and focus accompanied by the dimension of nothingness beset me.
