Todeyya-manava-puccha: Todeyya's Questions

translated from the Pali by

Thanissaro Bhikkhu

[Todeyya:]

One in whom there dwell no sensualities; one in whom no craving is found; one who has crossed over perplexity —

his emancipation:
what is it like?

[The Buddha:]

One in whom there dwell no sensualities; one in whom no craving is found; one who has crossed over perplexity —

his emancipation
is not other than that.

[Todeyya:]

Is he without desire, or desiring? Discerning or still acquiring discernment? Describe the sage to me, Sakyan with the all-around eye, so that I may recognize what he is like.

[The Buddha:]

He's without desire,

not desiring;

discerning, not still acquiring discernment. Recognize the sage, Todeyya, as having nothing, unentangled

in sensuality
	& becoming.
