asaMjYisattva
asaṃjñi-sattva (= Pali asañña-satta), having a nature that is free from consciousness , or acc. to CPD Unconscious Beings , n. of a class of gods (see s.v. deva ), one (in Dharmas and LV the 4th) of the classes of rūpāvacara gods of the 4th dhyāna-bhūmi (missing in the other standard lists of gods, but required to make up the standard count of 18 classes of gods in BHS or 16 in Pali ): Dharmas 128 ; LV 150.9 ; Divy 505.23 (see s.v. āsaṃjñika ); in Mvy 2297 mentioned as an example of dwellers in the 9th and highest sattvāvāsa , but this is certainly an error; they belong in the 5th sattvāvāsa, see this word. This is confirmed AbhidhK. LaV-P. ii.199 . f. , where the name is discussed, and it is said that they dwell in (a specially high part of) the bṛhatphala heaven.
