[154] Bhikkhus, it is impossible, there is no chance, that a person accomplished in view (diṭṭhisampanna) should take any conditioned thing (saṅkhāra) as pleasant — such a possibility does not exist. But it is possible, bhikkhus, that a worldling (puthujjana) should take some conditioned thing as pleasant — such a possibility exists.
