[204] And there are, householder, forms cognizable by the eye that are wished for, desirable, agreeable, pleasing, connected with sensuality, enticing. If a bhikkhu does not delight in them, does not welcome them, does not remain attached to them, then for him — not delighting in them, not welcoming them, not remaining attached to them — consciousness does not become dependent upon them, there is no clinging to them. Without clinging, householder, a bhikkhu attains final Nibbāna (parinibbāyati). … There are, householder, tastes cognizable by the tongue … There are, householder, dhammas cognizable by the mind that are wished for, desirable, agreeable, pleasing, connected with sensuality, enticing. If a bhikkhu does not delight in them, does not welcome them, does not remain attached to them, then for him — not delighting in them, not welcoming them, not remaining attached to them — consciousness does not become dependent upon them, there is no clinging to them. Without clinging, householder, a bhikkhu attains final Nibbāna.
This, householder, is the cause, this is the condition why some beings here attain final Nibbāna in this very life.
The eighth [sutta].
