Linked Discourses 27.2

1. Corruptions

Sights

At Sāvatthī.

“Mendicants, desire and greed for sights,

sounds,

smells,

tastes,

touches,

or ideas is a corruption of the mind.

When a mendicant has given up mental corruption in these six cases, their mind inclines to renunciation.

A mind imbued with renunciation is said to be fit for work regarding anything that can be realized by insight.”
