1At Sāvatthī.

“Possessions, honor, and popularity are brutal …

Even if you’re alone with a female she might not occupy your mind, but possessions, honor and popularity would still occupy your mind.

So brutal are possessions, honor, and popularity. …”

1Sāvatthiyaṁ vihārati.

""Dāruṇo, bhikkhave, lābhasakkārasiloko … pe …

na tassa, bhikkhave, mātugāmo eko ekassa cittaṁ pariyādāya tiṭṭhati yassa lābhasakkārasiloko cittaṁ pariyādāya tiṭṭhati.

Evaṁ dāruṇo kho, bhikkhave, lābhasakkārasiloko … pe … evañhi vo, bhikkhave, sikkhitabban"ti.

Paṭhamaṁ.
