1At Sāvatthī.
“Mendicants, if you take pleasure in form, you take pleasure in suffering. If you take pleasure in suffering, I say you’re not exempt from suffering.
2If you take pleasure in feeling … perception … choices … consciousness, you take pleasure in suffering. If you take pleasure in suffering, I say you’re not exempt from suffering.
3If you don’t take pleasure in form, you don’t take pleasure in suffering. If you don’t take pleasure in suffering, I say you’re exempt from suffering.
4If you don’t take pleasure in feeling … perception … choices … consciousness, you don’t take pleasure in suffering. If you don’t take pleasure in suffering, I say you’re exempt from suffering.”

“Yo, bhikkhave, rūpaṁ abhinandati, dukkhaṁ so abhinandati. Yo dukkhaṁ abhinandati, aparimutto so dukkhasmāti vadāmi.
2Yo vedanaṁ abhinandati … yo saññaṁ abhinandati … yo saṅkhāre abhinandati … yo viññāṇaṁ abhinandati, dukkhaṁ so abhinandati. Yo dukkhaṁ abhinandati, aparimutto so dukkhasmāti vadāmi.
3Yo ca kho, bhikkhave, rūpaṁ nābhinandati, dukkhaṁ so nābhinandati. Yo dukkhaṁ nābhinandati, parimutto so dukkhasmāti vadāmi.
4Yo vedanaṁ nābhinandati … yo saññaṁ nābhinandati … yo saṅkhāre nābhinandati … yo viññāṇaṁ nābhinandati, dukkhaṁ so nābhinandati. Yo dukkhaṁ nābhinandati, parimutto so dukkhasmāti vadāmī”ti.
Aṭṭhamaṁ.
