| Abstract | The present article problematizes a trend current among some scholars in Buddhist studies to view descriptions of absorptions (jhāna/dhyāna) in the early Buddhist discourses as reflecting substantially different experiences compared to corresponding descriptions in later exegesis. Closer inspection suggests that this trend originates from unreliable research. |
