[66] Bhikkhus, all should be abandoned. And what, bhikkhus, is the all that should be abandoned? The eye should be abandoned, forms should be abandoned, eye-consciousness should be abandoned, eye-contact should be abandoned, and whatever feeling (vedanā) arises with eye-contact as condition—whether pleasant, painful, or neither-painful-nor-pleasant—that too should be abandoned. The ear should be abandoned, sounds should be abandoned … The nose should be abandoned, odours should be abandoned; the tongue should be abandoned, tastes should be abandoned; the body should be abandoned, tangible objects should be abandoned; the mind should be abandoned, dhammas should be abandoned, mind-consciousness should be abandoned, mind-contact should be abandoned, and whatever feeling arises with mind-contact as condition—whether pleasant, painful, or neither-painful-nor-pleasant—that too should be abandoned.
Seeing form, one abandons; seeing feeling, one abandons; seeing perception, one abandons; seeing volitional formations, one abandons; seeing consciousness, one abandons; seeing the eye … aging-and-death … seeing Nibbāna, which merges in the deathless, in the sense of being the culmination, one abandons. Whatever dhammas have been abandoned, those dhammas have been relinquished. That is knowledge (ñāṇa) in the sense of what is known, and wisdom in the sense of understanding. Hence it is said: the giving of ear thus, "These dhammas should be abandoned," and the wisdom that is the understanding of that, is knowledge consisting in what is heard (sutamaye ñāṇa).
