§ 94.

This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard: "A monk should investigate in such a way that -- his consciousness neither externally scattered & diffused, nor internally fixated -- he is, from lack of clinging/sustenance, unagitated, and there is no seed for the origination of future birth, aging, death, or stress."

For a monk who has abandoned
    seven attachments
and cut the guide:*

the wandering-on in birth
    is finished,
there is
no further becoming.




* The "seven attachments" are passion, aversion, delusion, views, conceit, defilement, & misconduct. The "guide" is craving, which leads to becoming.
