STED 8 vimokkha, SP-FLUENT frankk translation, also hello VRJ🐍 and Jabrama🤡-jhana
http://notesonthedhamma.blogspot.com/20 ... rankk.html

excerpt from intro:

SP fluent means I spell out some of the implications from the terse formula, pulling in information from related suttas. The result, is a sutta that you could actually follow plain English meditation instructions and not be completely baffled by code language with inscrutable meaning.

Also very fascinating to note that VRJ🐍 (V)isuddhi-magga (Re)-definition of (J)hana and Jabrama🤡-jhana would fall under the second liberation. In other words, if they wanted to, they could have legally fit their meditation system into the EBT, without redefining important basic words like "body" and "thinking", and destroying the coherence of jhana and the suttas in general.
