Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Awakened One, as I have heard:
“Mānaṁ, bhikkhave, anabhijānaṁ aparijānaṁ tattha cittaṁ avirājayaṁ appajahaṁ abhabbo dukkhakkhayāya. Mānañca kho, bhikkhave, abhijānaṁ parijānaṁ tattha cittaṁ virājayaṁ pajahaṁ bhabbo dukkhakkhayāyā”ti.
“Not directly knowing and not completely comprehending conceit, with the mind not detaching from it and without abandoning it, one is incapable of ending suffering. Directly knowing and completely comprehending conceit, with the mind detaching from it and by abandoning it, one is capable of ending suffering.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
The Blessed One spoke on this matter. In this regard, it is said:
“Mānupetā ayaṁ pajā,
mānaganthā bhave ratā;
Mānaṁ aparijānantā,
āgantāro punabbhavaṁ.
“This generation is possessed by pride,
bound by the knot of conceit, they delight in existence;
not fully understanding conceit,
they will come to renewed existence.
Ye ca mānaṁ pahantvāna,
vimuttā mānasaṅkhaye;
Te mānaganthābhibhuno,
sabbadukkhamupaccagun”ti.
But those who have completely comprehended conceit,
freed through the exhaustion of conceit;
they have conquered the tie of conceit,
and have gone beyond all stress.”
Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
This matter too was spoken by the Blessed One, as I have heard.
