three types of meditation
三等至・三定・三静慮 (Jpn san-toji, san-jo, or san-joryo )
Flavor meditation,
pure meditation,
and free-of-outflows meditation;
three meditative practices explained in The Dharma Analysis Treasury, The Great Commentary on the Abhidharma, and other works. Flavor meditation is still bound and encumbered by earthly desires; pure meditation enables practitioners to perceive the nature of earthly desires and delusion and emancipates them from these to some extent; and free-of-outflows meditation enables practitioners to obtain wisdom that is completely free from delusions and earthly desires.
