268.5

「如是,比丘!若凡愚眾生不如實知色、色集、色滅、色味、色患、色離,不如實知故,樂著於色,言色是我,彼色隨斷。如是不如實知受、想、行、識、識集、識滅、識味、識患、識離,不如實知故,樂著於識,言識是我,識復隨斷。

“In this way, monks, if ordinary, foolish sentient beings don’t truly know form … the formation of form … cessation of form … enjoyment of form … trouble of form … don’t truly know the escape from form, they will delight in form, saying: ‘Form is myself.’ That form subsequently breaks. In the same way, they don’t truly know feeling … conception … volition … awareness … the formation of awareness … cessation of awareness, enjoyment of awareness, trouble of awareness … don’t truly know the escape from awareness. Because they don’t truly know it, they delight in awareness. They say, ‘Awareness is myself.’ That awareness will also subsequently break.
