you are an invaluable asset, Element

thank you for posting the following:


In the same way, monks, the eye is not yours: let go of it. Your letting go of it will be for your long-term happiness & benefit... The ear... The nose... The tongue... The body... The intellect is not yours: let go of it. Your letting go of it will be for your long-term happiness & benefit... Whatever arises in dependence on intellect-contact, experienced either as pleasure, as pain, or as neither-pleasure-nor-pain, that too is not yours: let go of it. Your letting go of it will be for your long-term happiness & benefit.

SN 35.101
Whatever arises in dependence on intellect-contact,
(known through the six sense bases)

experienced either as pleasure, as pain, or as neither-pleasure-nor-pain,
(suffering)

that too is not yours: let go of it.

(be mindful not to cling to it with knowing that is not yours, otherwise it will be the cause for future suffering)

Your letting go of it will be for your long-term happiness & benefit.



Thanks again, element, you provide the exact sutta that 'i have been looking for'

Thanks Again, Element
