BAGIAN 9
mn139:9.1 ‘Know how to evaluate different kinds of pleasure.
mn139:9.2 Knowing this, pursue inner pleasure.’
mn139:9.3 That’s what I said, but why did I say it?
mn139:9.4 There are these five kinds of sensual stimulation.
mn139:9.5 What five?
mn139:9.6 Sights known by the eye, which are likable, desirable, agreeable, pleasant, sensual, and arousing.
mn139:9.7 Sounds known by the ear …
mn139:9.8 Smells known by the nose …
mn139:9.9 Tastes known by the tongue …
mn139:9.10 Touches known by the body, which are likable, desirable, agreeable, pleasant, sensual, and arousing.
mn139:9.11 These are the five kinds of sensual stimulation.
mn139:9.12 The pleasure and happiness that arise from these five kinds of sensual stimulation is called sensual pleasure—a filthy, common, ignoble pleasure.
mn139:9.13 Such pleasure should not be cultivated or developed, but should be feared, I say.
mn139:9.14 Now, take a mendicant who, quite secluded from sensual pleasures, secluded from unskillful qualities, enters and remains in the first absorption, which has the rapture and bliss born of seclusion, while placing the mind and keeping it connected.
mn139:9.15 As the placing of the mind and keeping it connected are stilled, they enter and remain in the second absorption …
mn139:9.16 third absorption …
mn139:9.17 fourth absorption.
mn139:9.18 This is called the pleasure of renunciation, the pleasure of seclusion, the pleasure of peace, the pleasure of awakening.
mn139:9.19 Such pleasure should be cultivated and developed, and should not be feared, I say.
mn139:9.20 ‘Know how to evaluate different kinds of pleasure.
mn139:9.21 Knowing this, pursue inner pleasure.’
mn139:9.22 That’s what I said, and this is why I said it.
