“पञ्चिमे, भिक्खवे, जातरूपस्स उपक्किलेसा, येहि उपक्किलेसेहि उपक्किलिट्ठं जातरूपं न चेव मुदु होति न च कम्मनियं न च पभस्सरं पभङ्गु च न च सम्मा उपेति कम्माय। कतमे पञ्च? अयो, लोहं, तिपु, सीसं, सज्झं—इमे खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्च जातरूपस्स उपक्किलेसा, येहि उपक्किलेसेहि उपक्किलिट्ठं जातरूपं न चेव मुदु होति न च कम्मनियं न च पभस्सरं पभङ्गु च न च सम्मा उपेति कम्माय।
“Pañcime, bhikkhave, jātarūpassa upakkilesā, yehi upakkilesehi upakkiliṭṭhaṁ jātarūpaṁ na ceva mudu hoti na ca kammaniyaṁ na ca pabhassaraṁ pabhaṅgu ca na ca sammā upeti kammāya. Katame pañca? Ayo, lohaṁ, tipu, sīsaṁ, sajjhaṁ—ime kho, bhikkhave, pañca jātarūpassa upakkilesā, yehi upakkilesehi upakkiliṭṭhaṁ jātarūpaṁ na ceva mudu hoti na ca kammaniyaṁ na ca pabhassaraṁ pabhaṅgu ca na ca sammā upeti kammāya.
“Bhikkhus, there are these five corruptions of gold. When gold is corrupted by these it’s not pliable, workable, or radiant, but is brittle and not completely ready for working. What five? Iron, copper, tin, lead, and silver. When gold is corrupted by these five corruptions it’s not pliable, workable, or radiant, but is brittle and not completely ready for working.
यतो च खो, भिक्खवे, जातरूपं इमेहि पञ्चहि उपक्किलेसेहि विमुत्तं होति, तं होति जातरूपं मुदु च कम्मनियञ्च पभस्सरञ्च न च पभङ्गु सम्मा उपेति कम्माय। यस्सा यस्सा च पिळन्धनविकतिया आकङ्खति—यदि मुद्दिकाय यदि कुण्डलाय यदि गीवेय्यकाय यदि सुवण्णमालाय—तञ्चस्स अत्थं अनुभोति।
Yato ca kho, bhikkhave, jātarūpaṁ imehi pañcahi upakkilesehi vimuttaṁ1 hoti, taṁ hoti jātarūpaṁ mudu ca kammaniyañca pabhassarañca na ca pabhaṅgu sammā upeti kammāya. Yassā yassā ca2 piḷandhanavikatiyā ākaṅkhati—yadi muddikāya yadi kuṇḍalāya yadi gīveyyakāya yadi suvaṇṇamālāya—tañcassa atthaṁ anubhoti.
But when gold is free of these five corruptions it becomes pliable, workable, and radiant, not brittle, and ready to be worked. Then the goldsmith can successfully create any kind of ornament they want, whether a ring, earrings, a necklace, or a golden garland.
एवमेवं खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चिमे चित्तस्स उपक्किलेसा, येहि उपक्किलेसेहि उपक्किलिट्ठं चित्तं न चेव मुदु होति न च कम्मनियं न च पभस्सरं पभङ्गु च न च सम्मा समाधियति आसवानं खयाय। कतमे पञ्च? कामच्छन्दो, ब्यापादो, थिनमिद्धं, उद्धच्चकुक्कुच्चं, विचिकिच्छा—इमे खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्च चित्तस्स उपक्किलेसा येहि उपक्किलेसेहि उपक्किलिट्ठं चित्तं न चेव मुदु होति न च कम्मनियं न च पभस्सरं पभङ्गु च न च सम्मा समाधियति आसवानं खयाय।
Evamevaṁ kho, bhikkhave, pañcime cittassa upakkilesā, yehi upakkilesehi upakkiliṭṭhaṁ cittaṁ na ceva mudu hoti na ca kammaniyaṁ na ca pabhassaraṁ pabhaṅgu ca na ca sammā samādhiyati āsavānaṁ khayāya. Katame pañca? Kāmacchando, byāpādo, thinamiddhaṁ, uddhaccakukkuccaṁ, vicikicchā—ime kho, bhikkhave, pañca cittassa upakkilesā yehi upakkilesehi upakkiliṭṭhaṁ cittaṁ na ceva mudu hoti na ca kammaniyaṁ na ca pabhassaraṁ pabhaṅgu ca na ca sammā samādhiyati āsavānaṁ khayāya.
In the same way, there are these five corruptions of the mind. When the mind is corrupted by these it’s not pliable, workable, or radiant. It’s brittle, and not rightly immersed in samādhi for the ending of defilements. What five? Sensual desire, ill will, dullness and drowsiness, restlessness and remorse, and doubt. These are the five corruptions of the mind. When the mind is corrupted by these it’s not pliable, workable, or radiant. It’s brittle, and not rightly immersed in samādhi for the ending of defilements.
यतो च खो, भिक्खवे, चित्तं इमेहि पञ्चहि उपक्किलेसेहि विमुत्तं होति, तं होति चित्तं मुदु च कम्मनियञ्च पभस्सरञ्च न च पभङ्गु सम्मा समाधियति आसवानं खयाय। यस्स यस्स च अभिञ्ञासच्छिकरणीयस्स धम्मस्स चित्तं अभिनिन्नामेति अभिञ्ञासच्छिकिरियाय तत्र तत्रेव सक्खिभब्बतं पापुणाति सति सति आयतने।
Yato ca kho, bhikkhave, cittaṁ imehi pañcahi upakkilesehi vimuttaṁ hoti, taṁ hoti cittaṁ mudu ca kammaniyañca pabhassarañca na ca pabhaṅgu sammā samādhiyati āsavānaṁ khayāya. Yassa yassa ca abhiññāsacchikaraṇīyassa dhammassa cittaṁ abhininnāmeti abhiññāsacchikiriyāya tatra tatreva sakkhibhabbataṁ pāpuṇāti sati sati āyatane.
But when the mind is free of these five corruptions it’s pliable, workable, and radiant. It’s not brittle, and is rightly immersed in samādhi for the ending of defilements. You become capable of realizing anything that can be realized by insight to which you extend the mind, in each and every case.

May I remember: “There, I was named this, my clan was that, I looked like this, and that was my food. This was how I felt pleasure and pain, and that was how my life ended.

If you wish: ‘With clairvoyance that is purified and superhuman, may I see sentient beings passing away and being reborn—inferior and superior, beautiful and ugly, in a good place or a bad place—and understand how sentient beings are reborn according to their deeds: “These dear beings did bad things by way of body, speech, and mind. They spoke ill of the noble ones; they had wrong view; and they acted out of that wrong view. When their body breaks up, after death, they’re reborn in a place of loss, a bad place, the underworld, hell. These dear beings, however, did good things by way of body, speech, and mind. They never spoke ill of the noble ones; they had right view; and they acted out of that right view. When their body breaks up, after death, they’re reborn in a good place, a heavenly realm.” And so, with clairvoyance that is purified and superhuman, may I see sentient beings passing away and being reborn—inferior and superior, beautiful and ugly, in a good place or a bad place.
