“उपयो, भिक्खवे, अविमुत्तो, अनुपयो विमुत्तो।
“Upayo, bhikkhave, avimutto, anupayo vimutto.
“Bhikkhus, if you’re involved, you’re not free. If you’re not involved, you’re free.
रूपुपयं वा, भिक्खवे, विञ्ञाणं तिट्ठमानं तिट्ठेय्य, रूपारम्मणं रूपप्पतिट्ठं नन्दूपसेचनं वुद्धिं विरूळ्हिं वेपुल्लं आपज्जेय्य।
Rūpupayaṁ1 vā, bhikkhave, viññāṇaṁ tiṭṭhamānaṁ tiṭṭheyya, rūpārammaṇaṁ rūpappatiṭṭhaṁ nandūpasecanaṁ vuddhiṁ virūḷhiṁ vepullaṁ āpajjeyya.
As long as consciousness remains, it would remain involved with form, supported by form, founded on form. And with a sprinkle of relishing, it would grow, increase, and mature.
वेदनुपयं वा …पे…
Vedanupayaṁ vā …pe…
Or consciousness would remain involved with feeling …
सञ्ञुपयं वा …पे…
saññupayaṁ vā …pe…
Or consciousness would remain involved with perception …
सङ्खारुपयं वा, भिक्खवे, विञ्ञाणं तिट्ठमानं तिट्ठेय्य, सङ्खारारम्मणं सङ्खारप्पतिट्ठं नन्दूपसेचनं वुद्धिं विरूळ्हिं वेपुल्लं आपज्जेय्य।
saṅkhārupayaṁ vā, bhikkhave, viññāṇaṁ tiṭṭhamānaṁ tiṭṭheyya, saṅkhārārammaṇaṁ saṅkhārappatiṭṭhaṁ nandūpasecanaṁ vuddhiṁ virūḷhiṁ vepullaṁ āpajjeyya.
Or as long as consciousness remains, it would remain involved with choices, supported by choices, grounded on choices. And with a sprinkle of relishing, it would grow, increase, and mature.
यो, भिक्खवे, एवं वदेय्य: ‘अहमञ्ञत्र रूपा अञ्ञत्र वेदनाय अञ्ञत्र सञ्ञाय अञ्ञत्र सङ्खारेहि विञ्ञाणस्स आगतिं वा गतिं वा चुतिं वा उपपत्तिं वा वुद्धिं वा विरूळ्हिं वा वेपुल्लं वा पञ्ञापेस्सामीऽति, नेतं ठानं विज्जति।
Yo, bhikkhave, evaṁ vadeyya: ‘ahamaññatra rūpā aññatra vedanāya aññatra saññāya aññatra saṅkhārehi viññāṇassa āgatiṁ vā gatiṁ vā cutiṁ vā upapattiṁ vā vuddhiṁ vā virūḷhiṁ vā vepullaṁ vā paññāpessāmī’ti, netaṁ ṭhānaṁ vijjati.
Bhikkhus, suppose you say: ‘Apart from form, feeling, perception, and choices, I will describe the coming and going of consciousness, its passing away and reappearing, its growth, increase, and maturity.’ That is not possible.
रूपधातुया चे, भिक्खवे, भिक्खुनो रागो पहीनो होति। रागस्स पहाना वोच्छिज्जतारम्मणं पतिट्ठा विञ्ञाणस्स न होति।
Rūpadhātuyā ce, bhikkhave, bhikkhuno rāgo pahīno hoti. Rāgassa pahānā vocchijjatārammaṇaṁ patiṭṭhā viññāṇassa na hoti.
If a bhikkhu has given up greed for the form element, the support is cut off, and there is no foundation for consciousness.
वेदनाधातुया चे, भिक्खवे …
Vedanādhātuyā ce, bhikkhave …
If a bhikkhu has given up greed for the feeling element …
सञ्ञाधातुया चे, भिक्खवे …
saññādhātuyā ce, bhikkhave …
perception element …
सङ्खारधातुया चे, भिक्खवे …
saṅkhāradhātuyā ce, bhikkhave …
choices element …
विञ्ञाणधातुया चे, भिक्खवे, भिक्खुनो रागो पहीनो होति। रागस्स पहाना वोच्छिज्जतारम्मणं पतिट्ठा विञ्ञाणस्स न होति। तदप्पतिट्ठितं विञ्ञाणं अविरूळ्हं अनभिसङ्खच्च विमुत्तं।
viññāṇadhātuyā ce, bhikkhave, bhikkhuno rāgo pahīno hoti. Rāgassa pahānā vocchijjatārammaṇaṁ patiṭṭhā viññāṇassa na hoti. Tadappatiṭṭhitaṁ viññāṇaṁ avirūḷhaṁ anabhisaṅkhacca vimuttaṁ.
consciousness element, the support is cut off, and there is no foundation for consciousness. Since that consciousness does not become established and does not grow, with no power to regenerate, it is freed.
विमुत्तत्ता ठितं। ठितत्ता सन्तुसितं। सन्तुसितत्ता न परितस्सति। अपरितस्सं पच्चत्तञ्ञेव परिनिब्बायति।
Vimuttattā ṭhitaṁ. Ṭhitattā santusitaṁ. Santusitattā na paritassati. Aparitassaṁ paccattaññeva parinibbāyati.
Being free, it’s stable. Being stable, it’s content. Being content, they’re not anxious. Not being anxious, they personally become extinguished.
‘खीणा जाति, वुसितं ब्रह्मचरियं, कतं करणीयं, नापरं इत्थत्तायाऽति पजानाती”ति।
‘Khīṇā jāti, vusitaṁ brahmacariyaṁ, kataṁ karaṇīyaṁ, nāparaṁ itthattāyā’ti pajānātī”ti.
They understand: ‘Rebirth is ended, the spiritual journey has been completed, what had to be done has been done, there is no return to any state of existence.’”
