“Mendicants, without directly knowing and completely understanding the all, without dispassion for it and giving it up, you can’t end suffering.

The eye, sights, eye consciousness, and things knowable by eye consciousness. The ear … nose … tongue … body … The mind, ideas, mind consciousness, and things knowable by mind consciousness. This is the all, without directly knowing and completely understanding which, without dispassion for it and giving it up, you can’t end suffering. By directly knowing and completely understanding the all, having dispassion for it and giving it up, you can end suffering.
