1“Mendicants, sights are not-self. The cause and condition that gives rise to sights is also not-self. Since sights are produced by what is not-self, how could they be self?

Sounds …

Smells …

Tastes …

Touches …

Thoughts are not-self. The cause and condition that gives rise to thoughts is also not-self. Since thoughts are produced by what is not-self, how could they be self?

Seeing this … Being disillusioned, desire fades away. When desire fades away they’re freed. When they’re freed, they know they’re freed.

They understand: ‘Rebirth is ended, the spiritual journey has been completed, what had to be done has been done, there is no return to any state of existence.’”

“Rūpā, bhikkhave, anattā. Yopi hetu, yopi paccayo rūpānaṁ uppādāya, sopi anattā. Anattasambhūtā, bhikkhave, rūpā kuto attā bhavissanti.

Saddā …

gandhā …

rasā …

phoṭṭhabbā …

dhammā anattā. Yopi hetu, yopi paccayo dhammānaṁ uppādāya, sopi anattā. Anattasambhūtā, bhikkhave, dhammā kuto attā bhavissanti.

Evaṁ passaṁ, bhikkhave, sutavā ariyasāvako rūpesupi nibbindati, saddesupi … gandhesupi … rasesupi … phoṭṭhabbesupi … dhammesupi nibbindati. Nibbindaṁ virajjati; virāgā vimuccati; vimuttasmiṁ vimuttamiti ñāṇaṁ hoti.

‘Khīṇā jāti, vusitaṁ brahmacariyaṁ, kataṁ karaṇīyaṁ, nāparaṁ itthattāyā’ti pajānātī”ti.

Dvādasamaṁ.

Devadahavaggo catuttho.

Tassuddānaṁ

Devadaho khaṇo rūpā,
dve natumhākameva ca;
Hetunāpi tayo vuttā,
duve ajjhattabāhirāti.
