[30] Therein, bhikkhus, as to those ascetics and brahmins who declare the self to be percipient and free from disease (aroga) after death: those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be possessed of form; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be formless; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be both possessed of form and formless; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be neither possessed of form nor formless; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be of unified perception; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be of diversified perception; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be of limited perception; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be of measureless perception. Or else, among those who go beyond these, some assert the consciousness-kasiṇa (viññāṇakasiṇa), measureless and imperturbable.
This, bhikkhus, the Tathāgata understands: Those honorable ascetics and brahmins who declare the self to be percipient and free from disease after death — those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be possessed of form; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be formless; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be both possessed of form and formless; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be neither possessed of form nor formless; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be of unified perception; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be of diversified perception; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be of limited perception; or those honorable ascetics and brahmins declare the self, percipient and free from disease after death, to be of measureless perception — or else, whatever among these perceptions is declared purified, supreme, highest, and unsurpassed — whether of perceptions of form, or of perceptions of the formless, or of perceptions of unity, or of perceptions of diversity — some, [with the thought] 'There is nothing,' assert the base of nothingness (ākiñcaññāyatana), measureless and imperturbable. [Knowing:] 'That is conditioned (saṅkhata) and gross; but there is indeed the cessation of formations (saṅkhārā) — there is this' — knowing thus, seeing the escape from it, the Tathāgata has gone beyond it.
