Atha kho āyasmā mahākoį¹­į¹­hiko yenāyasmā sāriputto tenupasaį¹…kami; upasaį¹…kamitvā āyasmatā sāriputtena saddhiį¹ sammodi. Then Venerable Mahākoį¹­į¹­hita went up to Venerable Sāriputta, and exchanged greetings with him.

SammodanÄ«yaį¹ kathaį¹ sāraį¹‡Ä«yaį¹ vÄ«tisāretvā ekamantaį¹ nisÄ«di. Ekamantaį¹ nisinno kho āyasmā mahākoį¹­į¹­hiko āyasmantaį¹ sāriputtaį¹ etadavoca: When the greetings and polite conversation were over, Mahākoį¹­į¹­hita sat down to one side, and said to Sāriputta:

ā€œChannaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā atthaƱƱaį¹ kiƱcÄ«ā€ti? ā€œReverend, when the six fields of contact have faded away and ceased with nothing left over, does something else still exist?ā€

ā€œMā hevaį¹, āvusoā€. ā€œDonā€™t put it like that, reverend.ā€

ā€œChannaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā natthaƱƱaį¹ kiƱcÄ«ā€ti? ā€œDoes something else no longer exist?ā€

ā€œMā hevaį¹, āvusoā€. ā€œDonā€™t put it like that, reverend.ā€

ā€œChannaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā atthi ca natthi ca aƱƱaį¹ kiƱcÄ«ā€ti? ā€œDoes something else both still exist and no longer exist?ā€

ā€œMā hevaį¹, āvusoā€. ā€œDonā€™t put it like that, reverend.ā€

ā€œChannaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā nevatthi no natthaƱƱaį¹ kiƱcÄ«ā€ti? ā€œDoes something else neither still exist nor no longer exist?ā€

ā€œMā hevaį¹, āvusoā€. ā€œDonā€™t put it like that, reverend.ā€

ā€œā€˜Channaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā atthaƱƱaį¹ kiƱcÄ«ā€™ti, iti puį¹­į¹­ho samāno ā€˜mā hevaį¹, āvusoā€™ti vadesi. ā€œReverend, when asked whetherā€”when the six fields of contact have faded away and ceased with nothing left overā€”something else still exists, you say ā€˜donā€™t put it like thatā€™.

ā€˜Channaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā natthaƱƱaį¹ kiƱcÄ«ā€™ti, iti puį¹­į¹­ho samāno: When asked whether something else no longer exists,

ā€˜mā hevaį¹, āvusoā€™ti vadesi. you say ā€˜donā€™t put it like thatā€™.

ā€˜Channaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā atthi ca natthi ca aƱƱaį¹ kiƱcÄ«ā€™ti, iti puį¹­į¹­ho samāno: When asked whether something else both still exists and no longer exists,

ā€˜mā hevaį¹, āvusoā€™ti vadesi. you say ā€˜donā€™t put it like thatā€™.

ā€˜Channaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā nevatthi no natthaƱƱaį¹ kiƱcÄ«ā€™ti, iti puį¹­į¹­ho samāno: When asked whether something else neither still exists nor no longer exists,

ā€˜mā hevaį¹, āvusoā€™ti vadesi. you say ā€˜donā€™t put it like thatā€™.

Yathā kathaį¹ pana, āvuso, imassa bhāsitassa attho daį¹­į¹­habboā€ti? How then should we see the meaning of this statement?ā€

ā€œā€˜Channaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā atthaƱƱaį¹ kiƱcÄ«ā€™ti, iti vadaį¹ appapaƱcaį¹ papaƱceti. ā€œIf you say that, ā€˜When the six fields of contact have faded away and ceased with nothing left over, something else still existsā€™, youā€™re proliferating the unproliferated.

Yāvatā, āvuso, channaį¹ phassāyatanānaį¹ gati tāvatā papaƱcassa gati; The scope of proliferation extends as far as the scope of the six fields of contact.

yāvatā papaƱcassa gati tāvatā channaį¹ phassāyatanānaį¹ gati. The scope of the six fields of contact extends as far as the scope of proliferation.

Channaį¹, āvuso, phassāyatanānaį¹ asesavirāganirodhā papaƱcanirodho papaƱcavÅ«pasamoā€ti. When the six fields of contact fade away and cease with nothing left over, proliferation stops and is stilled.ā€

Tatiyaį¹.
