14.6
Those beings who are attached to forms
Are overcome by unrestrained desires. {14}
“ ‘Those who are trained in the true, highest point,
The gentle ones who have realized emptiness,
Are never overcome by the arising of desires
That cause the unrestrained to go to the lower realms. {15}
“ ‘Just as all the ants together cannot shake
And cannot move great Mount Sumeru,
Even divine forms cannot unsettle
A wise one who is correctly trained. {16}
“ ‘Someone may be able to paint a picture on space,
Someone may be able to grasp space in his hand,
But desire, anger, or millions of māras
Will not be able to unsettle such a wise one. {17}
“ ‘Someone may be able to catch an echo,
A stone may be able to float on the water,
But no one can see the thoughts of someone
Who is trained in this restraint of the body. {18}
“ ‘Someone may be able to catch all the sounds
In the entire world and put them in a box,
But they cannot know whether someone who maintains
The restraint of the body is or is not maintaining it. {19}
“ ‘Someone may be able to catch the light from the disk of the sun,
Or the thunder and lightning that burst from the clouds,
But they cannot know the nature of the body
Of someone who has trained in the restraint of the body. {20}
“ ‘Someone may be able to catch in a trap or a net
The circle of wind that moves through the four directions,
But they cannot come to know the body
Of someone who is established in the restraint of the body. {21}
“ ‘This is not the domain of activity of beings.
It is the domain of a wise one who has a controlled mind.
It is the domain of activity of someone with restraint of the body
Who, like space, is unstained by worldly qualities. {22}
“ ‘Someone may be able to see the tracks of all the creatures
That move through the sky in all four directions,
But they would not be able to know the extent
Of the fields of activity of such a person’s mind or body. {23}
“ ‘Those who are established in this restraint of the body
Do not have any of the various kinds of kleśas.
They have eliminated even the minor kleśas,¹³⁶⁴
And thus are trained in the restraint of the body. {24}
“ ‘They cannot be harmed by weapons or by fire,
