Viññāṇasutta

Consciousness

Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
At Sāvatthī.

“Yo, bhikkhave, cakkhuviññāṇasmiṁ chandarāgo, cittasseso upakkileso.
“Mendicants, desire and greed for eye consciousness,

Yo sotaviññāṇasmiṁ …
ear consciousness,

yo ghānaviññāṇasmiṁ …
nose consciousness,

yo jivhāviññāṇasmiṁ …
tongue consciousness,

yo kāyaviññāṇasmiṁ …
body consciousness,

yo manoviññāṇasmiṁ chandarāgo, cittasseso upakkileso.
or mind consciousness is a corruption of the mind.

Yato kho, bhikkhave, bhikkhuno imesu chasu ṭhānesu cetaso upakkileso pahīno hoti, nekkhammaninnañcassa cittaṁ hoti.
When a mendicant has given up mental corruption in these six cases, their mind inclines to renunciation.

Nekkhammaparibhāvitaṁ cittaṁ kammaniyaṁ khāyati, abhiññā sacchikaraṇīyesu dhammesū”ti.
A mind imbued with renunciation is declared to be capable of directly knowing anything that can be realized.”

Tatiyaṁ.
