[251] How is wisdom (paññā) in the sense of what is real (tathaṭṭha) knowledge (ñāṇa) of turning away by the truths (saccavivaṭṭa)?
Fully understanding the meaning of oppression, the meaning of being conditioned, the meaning of torment, and the meaning of change belonging to suffering (dukkha), one turns away — thus wisdom in the sense of what is real is knowledge of turning away by the truths. Abandoning the meaning of accumulation, the meaning of source, the meaning of bondage, and the meaning of impediment belonging to the origin, one turns away — thus wisdom in the sense of what is real is knowledge of turning away by the truths. Realizing the meaning of escape, the meaning of seclusion (viveka), the meaning of the unconditioned, and the meaning of the deathless belonging to cessation, one turns away — thus wisdom in the sense of what is real is knowledge of turning away by the truths. Developing the meaning of leading out, the meaning of cause, the meaning of seeing (dassana), and the meaning of dominance (ādhipateyya) belonging to the path, one turns away — thus wisdom in the sense of what is real is knowledge of turning away by the truths.
There is turning away through perception (saññāvivaṭṭa),¹ turning away through will (cetovivaṭṭa), turning away through mind (cittavivaṭṭa), turning away through knowledge (ñāṇavivaṭṭa), turning away through liberation (vimokkhavivaṭṭa), and turning away by the truths (saccavivaṭṭa). Perceiving, one turns away: thus it is turning away through perception. Intending, one turns away: thus it is turning away through will. Cognizing, one turns away: thus it is turning away through mind. Making knowledge, one turns away: thus it is turning away through knowledge. Relinquishing, one turns away: thus it is turning away through liberation. One turns away in the sense of what is real: thus it is turning away by the truths.
