3. Without Knowing, Illumination, Severance, Separation
3.p1
Thus have I heard. At one time the Buddha was in Śrāvastī, in the Jeta Grove, in Anāthapiṇḍada’s Park.
3.p2
At that time, the Bhagavān said to the bhikṣus, “Regarding form, if there is no knowing, no illumination, no severance, and no separation, then suffering cannot be cut off. It is also such as this for sensation, conception, formation, and consciousness: if there is no knowing, no illumination, no severance, and no separation, then suffering cannot be cut off.
3.p3
“Bhikṣus, regarding form, if there is knowing, illumination, severance, and separation, then suffering can be cut off. It is also such as this for sensation, conception, formation, and consciousness: if there is knowing, illumination, severance, and separation, then suffering can be cut off.”
3.p4
Then the bhikṣus heard what the Buddha had said, and joyfully practiced in accordance.
