[1][pts] "Bhikkhus, without directly knowing and fully understanding the all, without developing dispassion towards it and abandoning it, one is incapable of destroying suffering.

"And what, bhikkhus, is the all... ?

"The eye and forms and eye-consciousness and things to be cognized by eye-consciousness.

[19] The ear and sounds and ear-consciousness and things to be cognized by ear-consciousness. ...

The mind and mental phenomena and mind-consciousness and things to be cognized by mind-consciousness.

"This, bhikkhus, is the all without directly knowing and fully understanding which, without developing dispassion towards which and abandoning which, one is incapable of destroying suffering.

"But, bhikkhus, by directly knowing and fully understanding the all, by developing dispassion towards it and abandoning it, one is capable of destroying suffering.

"And what, bhikkhus, is the all... ?

(as above)

"This, bhikkhus, is the all by directly knowing and fully understanding which, by developing dispassion towards which and abandoning which, one is capable of destroying suffering."
