[671] Therein, what is personality-view (sakkāyadiṭṭhi)?
Here an unlearned ordinary person (assutavā puthujjano) — one who has not seen the noble ones, is unskilled in the Dhamma of the noble ones, undisciplined in the Dhamma of the noble ones; who has not seen 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; regards feeling (vedanā) as self, or self as possessing feeling, or feeling as in self, or self as in feeling; regards perception (saññā) as self, or self as possessing perception, or perception as in self, or self as in perception; regards volitional formations (saṅkhārā) as self, or self as possessing volitional formations, or volitional formations as in self, or self as in volitional formations; regards consciousness (viññāṇa) as self, or self as possessing consciousness, or consciousness as in self, or self as in consciousness. Any such view (diṭṭhi), resort to views, thicket of views, wilderness of views, contortion of views, vacillation of views, fetter of views; grasping, holding fast, adherence, misapprehension; wrong road, wrong path, wrongness; ground of sectarian tenets, inverted grasp — this is called personality-view.
