SN 52.14 Comprehending the Mind – Cetopariyasutta

 

“… And it’s because of developing and cultivating these four kinds of mindfulness meditation that I understand the minds of other beings and individuals, having comprehended them with my mind.

“Imesañca panāhaṁ, āvuso, catunnaṁ satipaṭṭhānānaṁ bhāvitattā bahulīkatattā parasattānaṁ parapuggalānaṁ cetasā ceto paricca pajānāmi—

I understand mind with greed as ‘mind with greed’ …

sarāgaṁ vā cittaṁ ‘sarāgaṁ cittan’ti pajānāmi …pe…

I understand unfreed mind as ‘unfreed mind’.”

avimuttaṁ vā cittaṁ ‘avimuttaṁ cittan’ti pajānāmī”ti.
