§ 44.

This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard: "Monks, there are these two forms of the Unbinding property. Which two? The Unbinding property with fuel remaining, & the Unbinding property with no fuel remaining.

And what is the Unbinding property with fuel remaining? There is the case where a monk is a Arahant whose fermentations have ended, who has reached fulfillment, finished the task, laid down the burden, attained the true goal, destroyed the fetter of becoming, and is released through right gnosis. His five sense faculties still remain and, owing to their being intact, he is cognizant of the pleasant & the unpleasant, and is sensitive to pleasure & pain. His ending of passion, aversion, & delusion is termed the Unbinding property with fuel remaining.^*

And what is the Unbinding property with no fuel remaining? There is the case where a monk is a Arahant whose fermentations have ended, who has reached fulfillment, finished the task, laid down the burden, attained the true goal, destroyed the fetter of becoming, and is released through right gnosis. For him, all that is sensed, being unrelished, will grow cold right here. This is termed the Unbinding property with no fuel remaining."^*

These two            proclaimed
                by the one with vision,
Unbinding properties    the one independent,
                the one who is Such:^**
one property, here in this life
with fuel remaining
    from the destruction of craving,
    the guide to becoming,
and that with no fuel remaining,
    after this life,
in which all becoming
    totally ceases.

Those who know
this state uncompounded,
their minds released
through the destruction of craving,
    the guide to becoming,
they, attaining the Teaching's core,
    delighting in ending,
have abandoned all becoming:
        they, the Such.
