The Discourse on One Who Dwells in Heedlessness
97.
"I will teach you, monks, one who dwells in heedlessness and one who dwells in diligence.
Listen to that.
And how, monks, is one a dweller in heedlessness?
For one dwelling with the eye-faculty unrestrained, monks, the mind becomes soaked.
For one whose mind is soaked regarding forms cognisable by the eye, gladness does not arise.
When gladness is absent, joy does not arise.
When joy is absent, tranquillity does not arise.
When tranquillity is absent, suffering arises.
The mind of one who is suffering does not become concentrated.
When the mind is unconcentrated, mental states do not become manifest.
Due to the non-manifestation of mental states, he goes by the term 'one who dwells in heedlessness', etc.
For one dwelling with the tongue-faculty unrestrained, monks, the mind becomes soaked regarding flavours cognisable by the tongue; for one whose mind is soaked, etc.
he goes by the term 'one who dwells in heedlessness', etc.
For one dwelling with the mind faculty unrestrained, monks, the mind becomes soaked regarding mental phenomena cognisable by the mind; for one whose mind is soaked, gladness does not arise.
When gladness is absent, joy does not arise.
When joy is absent, tranquillity does not arise.
When tranquillity is absent, suffering arises.
The mind of one who is suffering does not become concentrated.
When the mind is unconcentrated, mental states do not become manifest.
Due to the non-manifestation of mental states, he goes by the term 'one who dwells in heedlessness'.
Thus, monks, is one a dweller in heedlessness.
"And how, monks, is one a dweller in diligence? For one dwelling with the eye-faculty restrained, monks, the mind does not become soaked regarding forms cognisable by the eye; for one whose mind is not soaked, gladness arises. In one who is gladdened, joy arises. When the mind is filled with joy, the body becomes calm. One whose body is calm dwells happily. The mind of one who is happy becomes concentrated. When the mind is concentrated, mental states become manifest. Due to the manifestation of mental states, he goes by the term 'one who dwells in diligence', etc. For one dwelling with the tongue-faculty restrained, monks, the mind does not become soaked, etc. he goes by the term 'one who dwells in diligence'. For one dwelling with the mind faculty restrained, monks, the mind does not become soaked regarding mental phenomena cognisable by the mind; for one whose mind is not soaked, gladness arises. In one who is gladdened, joy arises. When the mind is filled with joy, the body becomes calm. One whose body is calm dwells happily. The mind of one who is happy becomes concentrated.

Thus, monks, is one a dweller in diligence." The fourth.
