[1774] [Paravādin:] Should it not be said that one abandons past defilements (kilesa), abandons future defilements, abandons present defilements?
[Sakavādin:] Yes.
[Paravādin:] Is there, then, no one who abandons defilements?
[Sakavādin:] It should not be said thus. …
[Paravādin:] Then indeed one abandons past defilements, abandons future defilements, abandons present defilements.
