What are those one hundred twenty-four? [...] (55) the accumulations of peaceful meditation is included in being detached from body and thought; (56) the accumulations of expanded vision is included in never being satisfied with seeking for learning (śrutaparyeṣṭi) and thorough mental effort; (57) the wish to listen is included in joining the palms of the hand and obeisance with the body; (58) serving is included in truth and the absence of deceptiveness; [...]’”.
