[334] In what twenty modes is there adherence through personality-view (sakkāyadiṭṭhi)? Here the unlearned worldling (puthujjana) — who has no regard for the noble ones, is unskilled in the Dhamma of the noble ones, undisciplined in the Dhamma of the noble ones; who has no regard for good persons, is unskilled in the Dhamma of good persons, undisciplined in the Dhamma of good persons — regards form (rūpa) as self, or self as possessing form, or form as in self, or self as in form; he regards feeling (vedanā) … perception (saññā) … volitional formations (saṅkhārā) … consciousness (viññāṇa) as self, or self as possessing consciousness, or consciousness as in self, or self as in consciousness. How does he regard form as self? Here someone regards the earth-kasiṇa … the white-kasiṇa as self: "That which is the white kasiṇa, that am I; that which I am, that is the white kasiṇa" — thus he regards the white kasiṇa and the self as not two. Just as when an oil lamp is burning … even so, here someone regards the white kasiṇa as self. The view is a misapprehension through adherence … This is the first personality-view with form as its basis. Personality-view is wrong view … These are fetters (saṃyojana), but not views. Thus he regards form as self … It is in these twenty modes that there is adherence through personality-view.
