“Yo hi koci, bhikkhave, bhikkhu channaṁ phassāyatanānaṁ samudayañca atthaṅgamañca assādañca ādīnavañca nissaraṇañca yathābhūtaṁ nappajānāti.
has not completed the spiritual journey and is far from this teaching and training.”
Avusitaṁ tena brahmacariyaṁ, ārakā so imasmā dhammavinayā”ti.
When he said this, one of the bhikkhū said to the Buddha,
Evaṁ vutte, aññataro bhikkhu bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
“Here, sir, I’m lost.
“etthāhaṁ, bhante, anassasaṁ.
For I don’t truly understand the six fields of contacts’ origin, ending, gratification, drawback, and escape.”

“What do you think, bhikkhu?
“Taṁ kiṁ maññasi, bhikkhu,
Do you regard the eye like this: ‘This is mine, I am this, this is my self’?”
cakkhuṁ ‘etaṁ mama, esohamasmi, eso me attā’ti samanupassasī”ti?
“No, sir.”
“No hetaṁ, bhante”.
“Good, bhikkhu! And regarding the eye, you will truly see clearly with right wisdom that: ‘This is not mine, I am not this, this is not my self.’
“Sādhu, bhikkhu, ettha ca te, bhikkhu, cakkhu ‘netaṁ mama, nesohamasmi, na meso attā’ti evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya sudiṭṭhaṁ bhavissati.
Just this is the end of suffering.

“Sādhu, bhikkhu, ettha ca te, bhikkhu, mano ‘netaṁ mama, nesohamasmi, na meso attā’ti evametaṁ yathābhūtaṁ sammappaññāya sudiṭṭhaṁ bhavissati.
