235.p3

“How does having a teacher or a disciple living nearby make living alone painful? Conditioned by the eye and forms, bad and unskillful feelings arise together with greed, anger, and delusion. If a monk practices this teaching, he’s said to have a teacher. If he abides on the edge of this, he’s said to have a disciple who lives nearby. The ear, nose, tongue, body, and mind are likewise. Thus, having a teacher and having a disciple living nearby makes living alone constant suffering.
