mn75:12.1 “In the same way, Māgaṇḍiya, when I was still a layperson I used to amuse myself with sights … sounds …
BAGIAN 12
mn75:12.2 smells …
mn75:12.3 tastes …
mn75:12.4 touches known by the body, which are likable, desirable, agreeable, pleasant, sensual, and arousing.
mn75:12.5 Some time later—having truly understood the origin, ending, gratification, drawback, and escape of sensual pleasures, and having given up craving and dispelled passion for sensual pleasures—I live rid of thirst, my mind settled internally.
mn75:12.6 I see other sentient beings who are not free from sensual pleasures being consumed by craving for sensual pleasures, burning with passion for sensual pleasures, indulging in sensual pleasures. I don’t envy them, nor do I hope to enjoy that.
mn75:12.7 Why is that?
mn75:12.8 Because there is a satisfaction that is apart from sensual pleasures and unskillful qualities,
mn75:12.9 which even equals heavenly pleasure.
mn75:12.10 Enjoying that satisfaction, I don’t envy what is inferior, nor do I hope to enjoy it.
