"Monks, there are these four actions that I have realised by direct knowledge myself and proclaimed.
What are the four?
There is, monks, action that is dark with dark result;
there is, monks, action that is bright with bright result;
there is, monks, action that is dark and bright with dark and bright result;
there is, monks, action that is neither dark nor bright with neither dark nor bright result, which leads to the elimination of action.
"And what, monks, is action that is dark with dark result? Here, monks, a certain one generates afflictive bodily activity... etc. This is called, monks, action that is dark with dark result.
"And what, monks, is action that is bright with bright result? Here, monks, a certain one generates non-afflictive bodily activity... etc. This is called, monks, action that is bright with bright result.
"And what, monks, is action that is dark and bright with dark and bright result? Here, monks, a certain one generates bodily activity that is both afflictive and non-afflictive... etc. This is called, monks, action that is dark and bright with dark and bright result.
"And what, monks, is action that is neither dark nor bright with neither dark nor bright result, which leads to the elimination of action? Right view... etc. right concentration. This is called, monks, action that is neither dark nor bright with neither dark nor bright result, which leads to the elimination of action. These, monks, are the four actions that I have realised by direct knowledge myself and proclaimed." The sixth.
