4' hsom-gtan, to let one's intention settle firmly on a certain topic. It is a state in which all discrimination is gone and only integration remains.
The statement here that its function is to do away with all obscurations means that, through the power of alertness, sluggishness of body and mind is cleansed, and, when one has alertness, one is drawn towards integration from within. This integration through its mere spreading increases the feeling of pleasure, and by its mere increase, integration becomes ever more intense, and so one becomes powerful to do away with all ohscurations.
Concern [bag yod]
The nutgon-pa kun-btus (Abhidharmasann►ccaya, p. 6) explains concern as follows:
What is concern? From taking its stand on non-attachment, non-hatred, and non-deh►dedness coupled with diligence, it considers whatever is positive and protects the mind against things which cannot satisfy. Its function is to make complete and to realize all worldly and transworldly excellences.12
It is intelligence which realizes the positive and protects the mind from what is unreliable by persevering in diligence and not falling prey to the emotions.
According to the htlang sa (Bodhisattvabhfuni), there are five kinds:
1. Concern with regard to things in the past
2. Concern with regard to things in the future
3. Concern with regard to things in the present
4. Concern with regard to things which were to he done Lefore
5. Concern with regard to things which continue together with what is done now
