[1][bit][pts][than] I Hear Tell:
Once upon a time The Lucky Man said words to this effect:
"Tathāgatas appearing, beggars,
or Tathāgatas not appearing,
this stands:
It stands as a property of things,
it is a settled thing:
'Everything own-made is discontinuous.'
This the Tathāgata wakes up to
and comprehends.
Waking up to this
and comprehending it
he describes it, points to it, makes it known;
establishes, uncovers, analyzes, and makes it plain:
'Everything own-made is discontinuous.'

[2][pts][than] Tathāgatas appearing, beggars,
or Tathāgatas not appearing,
this stands:
It stands as a property of things,
is a settled thing:
'Everything own-made is pain.'
This the Tathāgata wakes up to and comprehends.
Waking up to this
and comprehending it
he describes it, points to it, makes it known;
establishes, uncovers, analyzes, and makes it plain:
'Everything own-made is pain.'
■
[3][pts][than] Tathāgatas appearing, beggars,
or Tathāgatas not appearing,
this stands:
It stands as a property of things,
is a settled thing:
'All things are not-self.'
This the Tathāgata wakes up to and comprehends.
Waking up to this
and comprehending it
he describes it, points to it, makes it known;
establishes, uncovers, analyzes, and makes it plain:
'All things are not-self.'"
