The Second Discourse on Ascetics and Brahmins
500.
"Whatever ascetics or brahmins, monks, who do not understand the eye-faculty, do not understand the origin of the eye-faculty, do not understand the cessation of the eye-faculty, do not understand the practice leading to the cessation of the eye-faculty;
the ear-faculty, etc.
the nose-faculty, etc.
the tongue-faculty, etc.
body-faculty, etc.
do not understand the mind faculty, do not understand the origin of the mind faculty, do not understand the cessation of the mind faculty, do not understand the practice leading to the cessation of the mind faculty.
They are not for me, monks, etc.
having realised by direct knowledge themselves, having attained, they dwell.
"But whatever ascetics or brahmins, monks, who understand the eye-faculty, understand the origin of the eye-faculty, understand the cessation of the eye-faculty, understand the practice leading to the cessation of the eye-faculty; the ear-faculty, etc. the nose-faculty, etc. the tongue-faculty, etc. body-faculty, etc. understand the mind faculty, understand the origin of the mind faculty, understand the cessation of the mind faculty, understand the practice leading to the cessation of the mind faculty, they are for me, monks, ascetics or brahmins who are considered ascetics among ascetics and considered brahmins among brahmins; and those venerable ones dwell having attained the goal of asceticism and the goal of the holy life in this very life, having realised by direct knowledge themselves." The tenth.
