(asam!jn~i-sam!a^patti); 'non-conceptual concentration.' The state of concentration that is the cause of being born into no-thought heaven. The state of concentration wherein all mental actions and functions of the first six consciousnesses are stopped. A state of spiritual concentration to the extent of which there is no consciousness. In Abhidharmako/sa theory, one of the fourteen elements not concomitant with mind. In Consciousness-only theory, one of the twenty-four elements not concomitant with mind. This concentration is also practiced by non-Buddhists, and is called a tainted concentration with the nature of goodness. It is tainted because the mano-consciousness is still producing self-view.
