    “Bhikkhus, ‘danger’ is a term for sensual pleasures. ‘Suffering’, ‘disease’, ‘boil’, ‘dart’, ‘snare’, ‘bog’, and ‘womb’ are terms for sensual pleasures. And why is ‘danger’ a term for sensual pleasures? Someone who is besotted by sensual greed and shackled by lustful desire is not freed from dangers in the present life or in lives to come. That is why ‘danger’ is a term for sensual pleasures. And why are ‘suffering’, ‘disease’, ‘boil’, ‘dart’, ‘snare’, ‘bog’, and ‘womb’ terms for sensual pleasures? Someone who is besotted by sensual greed and shackled by lustful desire is not freed from wombs in the present life or in lives to come. That is why ‘womb’ is a term for sensual pleasures.

    भयं दुक्खञ्च रोगो च, गण्डो सल्लञ्च सङ्गो च; पङ्को गब्भो च उभयं, एते कामा पवुच्चन्ति; यत्थ सत्तो पुथुज्जनो।

    Bhayaṁ dukkhañca rogo ca, gaṇḍo sallañca saṅgo ca; Paṅko gabbho ca ubhayaṁ, ete kāmā pavuccanti; Yattha satto puthujjano.

    Danger, suffering, and disease, boil, dart, and snare, and bogs and wombs both. These describe the sensual pleasures to which ordinary people are attached.

    ओतिण्णो सातरूपेन, पुन गब्भाय गच्छति; यतो च भिक्खु आतापी, सम्पजञ्ञं न रिच्चति।

    Otiṇṇo sātarūpena, puna gabbhāya gacchati; Yato ca bhikkhu ātāpī, sampajaññaṁ1 na riccati.

    Swamped by things that seem pleasant, you go to another womb. But when a bhikkhu is keen, and doesn’t forget awareness,

    सो इमं पलिपथं दुग्गं, अतिक्कम्म तथाविधो; पजं जातिजरूपेतं, फन्दमानं अवेक्खती”ति।

    So imaṁ palipathaṁ duggaṁ, atikkamma tathāvidho; Pajaṁ jātijarūpetaṁ, phandamānaṁ avekkhatī”ti.

    in this way they transcend this grueling swamp. They watch this population flounder, fallen into rebirth and old age.”
