According to the Mahasaccakasutta,[note 33] from the fourth jhana the Buddha gained bodhi.

Problem: Please answer a question about the following article about Chinese characters:
Examples are he "river", hu "lake", liu "stream", chong "riptide" (or "flush"), hua "slippery". All these characters have on the left a radical of three short strokes (), which is a reduced form of the character shui meaning "water", indicating that the character has a semantic connection with water. The right-hand side in each case is a phonetic indicator. For example, in the case of chong (Old Chinese *-lju), the phonetic indicator is zhong (Old Chinese *k-lju), which by itself means "middle". In this case it can be seen that the pronunciation of the character is slightly different from that of its phonetic indicator; the process of historical phonetic change means that the composition of such characters can sometimes seem arbitrary today.
What process can sometimes seem arbitrary today?
A: phonetic change
