22.4
bādhanā pīḍā tāpa iti/ tayānuviddham anuṣaktam avinirbhāgena vartamānaṃ duḥkhayogād duḥkham iti/ so 'yaṃ sarvaṃ duḥkhenānuviddham iti paśyan duḥkhaṃ jihāsur janmani duḥkhadarśī nirvidyate, nirviṇṇo virajyate, virakto vimucyate//21//
Affliction means distress, burning torment. Because it is permeated by that, clung to by that, existing inseparably from that, it is called 'pain' through association with pain. Thus, seeing that everything is permeated by pain, desiring to abandon pain, and viewing birth as pain, one becomes disillusioned; disillusioned, one becomes dispassionate; dispassionate, one is liberated. //21
