"Through confession, venerable sir, what does the soul produce?"
"Through confession, it eradicates the thorns of deceit, worldly longing, and false view, which are obstacles on the path to liberation and expand the endless cycle of rebirth, and it produces an upright disposition. And the soul possessing an upright disposition, free from deceit, does not bind female-sex-feeling or neuter-sex-feeling. And it wears away previously bound [karma]."
