- meditative state of totality
- རྒྱས་པའི་སྐྱེ་མཆེད།
- rgyas pa’i skye mched
- kṛtsnāyatana
There are ten of these meditative states in the Śrāvakayāna: through meditating individually on the four elements of earth, water, fire, and air, on the four colors blue, yellow, red, and white, on space, and on consciousness, one meditates that everything that exists becomes that element, or that color, or space, or consciousness. Elsewhere, including the Mahāvyutpatti, this is translated as zad par gyi skye mched. The Sanskrit kṛtsna means “totality,” while rgyas pa means “spread,” or “pervade,” and zad par means cessation, in that everything ceases within that element, color, etc.
