[64] **The wise one does not cling to things seen and heard (na limpatī diṭṭhasutesu dhīro):** Clinging (lepa): there are two kinds of clinging — clinging through craving (taṇhā) and clinging through views (diṭṭhi) … This is clinging through craving … This is clinging through views. **The wise one (dhīro):** one who is wise, learned, possessed of wisdom, intelligent, endowed with knowledge (ñāṇa), discerning, sagacious. The wise one, having abandoned clinging through craving and relinquished clinging through views, does not cling to the seen, does not cling to the heard, does not cling to the sensed, does not cling to the cognized; he does not adhere, does not cleave; unclinging, not adhering, not cleaving, he has gone out, given up, been fully released, become detached, and dwells with a mind rid of boundaries. Therefore, "the wise one does not cling to things seen and heard." Hence the Blessed One said:
Having removed desire for both ends,
having fully understood contact, not greedy,
not doing that for which one would reproach oneself,
the wise one does not cling to things seen and heard.
