   :: //Numerical Discourses of the Buddha// translates this phrase as "[those] who have personal experience of the deathless element." However, [[en:tipitaka:sut:an:an09:an09.043.than|AN 9.43]] and [[en:tipitaka:sut:an:an09:an09.044.than|44]] make a distinction between touching a meditative dimension with the body and knowing it with discernment. In both cases, the experience is direct and personal, and in both it leads to the ending of the mental effluents. Thus, "touching with the body" seems to have a more precise meaning than simple personal experience. It could mean that there is a somatic aspect to the experience or that the awareness of the deathless occupies the same fullness of awareness that had been occupied by the body.
