From this, they are close to good friends. They don’t observe self as possessing form, and they don’t view self as being in form or that form is in self. They don’t view form as belonging to self or that self belongs to form. That form \[deteriorates,\] changes, and doesn’t remain. The changing of that form doesn’t give rise to the suffering of sorrow, lamentation, pain, and trouble. > — Charles Patton, The Numbered Discourses (selected sūtras) > “They don’t view feeling … conception … volition … consciousness \[as self\], and they don’t view that self as being in consciousness or that consciousness is in self. They don’t view consciousness as belonging to self or that self belongs to consciousness. \[They don’t view\] other consciousness and self consciousness as combining in one place … Consciousness then deteriorates … This doesn’t give rise to sorrow, lamentation, pain, and trouble. In this way, wealthy man, the body has its troubles, but the mind is untroubled. > — Charles Patton, The Numbered Discourses (selected sūtras) > “Therefore, wealthy man, you should perform this training: Let go of the body, leave behind the mind, and have no attachments. Thus, wealthy man, you should train yourself.” > — Charles Patton, The Numbered Discourses (selected sūtras) - [Previous: 13.4.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ekottaragama*zh-sanghadeva.13.4.16) - [Next: 13.4.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ekottaragama*zh-sanghadeva.13.4.18) - [Up: 13.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ekottaragama*zh-sanghadeva.13.4) ## Translations (2) - [The Numbered Discourses (selected sūtras)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ekottaragama*zh-sanghadeva~en-patton.13.4.p18) — Charles Patton, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ekottaragama*zh-sanghadeva~en-mt.13.4.17) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [Nakulapitusutta](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.theravada.sp.samyutta.3.22.1.14.1-6) — Pāli --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ekottaragama*zh-sanghadeva.13.4.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ekottaragama*zh-sanghadeva.13.4.17) · Pramāṇa
