When Things Calm Down

The experience of Rapture (piti) can mature into Tranquillity (passaddhi), which is the next link on the chain of Transcendent Dependent Arising. The mind that has turned from Suffering to Faith and found Joy in the release that comes through practice, delights in that Joy until it develops into Rapture. After which, it can rest and relax into the calm and peaceful state of  Tranquility.
