mn35:24.1 But Saccaka said to him,
mn35:24.2 “Hold on, Dummukha, hold on! I wasn’t talking with you, I was talking with the worthy Gotama.
mn35:24.3 Worthy Gotama, leave aside that statement I made—as did various other ascetics and brahmins—
mn35:24.4 it was, like, just a bit of nonsense.
mn35:24.5 How do you define a disciple of the worthy Gotama who follows instructions and responds to advice; who has gone beyond doubt, got rid of indecision, gained assurance, and is independent of others in the Teacher’s instructions?”
mn35:24.6 “It’s when one of my disciples truly sees any kind of form at all—past, future, or present; internal or external; solid or subtle; inferior or superior; far or near: <em>all</em> form—with right understanding: ‘This is not mine, I am not this, this is not my self.’
mn35:24.7 They truly see any kind of feeling …
mn35:24.8 perception …
mn35:24.9 choices …
mn35:24.10 consciousness at all—past, future, or present; internal or external; solid or subtle; inferior or superior; far or near: <em>all</em> consciousness—with right understanding: ‘This is not mine, I am not this, this is not my self.’
mn35:24.11 That’s how to define one of my disciples who follows instructions and responds to advice; who has gone beyond doubt, got rid of indecision, gained assurance, and is independent of others in the Teacher’s instructions.”
