[107] "One who lives the holy life (brahmacariya) with regard to sensual pleasures (said the Blessed One, "Metteyya"), free from craving (taṇhā), ever possessed of mindfulness, a bhikkhu who, having comprehended, is quenched— for him there are no perturbations. Having directly known both ends, through wisdom he does not cleave to the middle. Him I call a great man: he has gone beyond the seamstress here."
