[225] "Sāriputta, when one cultivates an acquisition of individual existence (attabhāvapaṭilābha) of what kind do unwholesome (akusala) states increase and wholesome (kusala) states decline? Sāriputta, for one who has generated an afflictive (sabyāpajjha) acquisition of individual existence — whereby there is the state of non-consummation — unwholesome states increase and wholesome states decline."
