The Longer Discourse on the Cowherd

Majjhima Nikāya · Terj. Bhikkhu Sujato

mn33:7.1 And how does a mendicant not dress wounds?

mn33:7.2 When a mendicant sees a sight with their eyes, they get caught up in the features and details.

mn33:7.3 Since the faculty of sight is left unrestrained, bad unskillful qualities of covetousness and displeasure become overwhelming. They don’t practice restraint, they don’t protect the faculty of sight, and they don’t achieve its restraint.

mn33:7.4 When they hear a sound with their ears …

mn33:7.5 smell an odor with their nose …

mn33:7.6 taste a flavor with their tongue …

mn33:7.7 feel a touch with their body …

mn33:7.8 know an idea with their mind, they get caught up in the features and details.

mn33:7.9 Since the faculty of the mind is left unrestrained, bad unskillful qualities of covetousness and displeasure become overwhelming. They don’t practice restraint, they don’t protect the faculty of the mind, and they don’t achieve its restraint.

mn33:7.10 That’s how a mendicant doesn’t dress wounds.
