[213] **Everywhere the sage is not dependent (sabbattha muni anissito):** "all" refers to the twelve sense bases (āyatana): the eye and forms, the ear and sounds, the nose and odors, the tongue and tastes, the body and tangible objects, the mind and dhammas. **Sage (muni):** knowledge (ñāṇa) is called sagacity (mona), that is, the wisdom (paññā) which is understanding … having gone beyond the tie and the net, he is a sage. **Not dependent (anissito):** there are two dependencies: dependence through craving (taṇhā) and dependence through view (diṭṭhi) … this is dependence through craving … this is dependence through view. The sage, having abandoned dependence through craving and relinquished dependence through view, is not dependent on the eye, not dependent on the ear, not dependent on the nose, not dependent on the tongue, not dependent on the body, not dependent on the mind; not dependent on forms, sounds, odors, tastes, tangibles, or dhammas; on family, group, dwelling, gain, fame, praise, or pleasure; on robes, almsfood, lodging, or the requisite of medicines for the sick; on the sense-sphere element, the form element, or the formless element; on sense-sphere existence, form existence, or formless existence; on percipient existence, non-percipient existence, or neither-percipient-nor-non-percipient existence; on one-constituent existence, four-constituent existence, or five-constituent existence; on the past, the future, or the present; not dependent on things seen, heard, sensed, or cognizable — he is not dependent, not reliant, not adhering, not drawn near, not clinging, not resolved upon them; he has gone out from them, given them up, is fully released and detached from them, and dwells with a mind rid of boundaries. Hence: everywhere the sage is not dependent.
