[1411] One who does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit (mānānusaya) from some place — does he not abandon the latent tendency of views (diṭṭhānusaya) … the latent tendency of doubt (vicikicchānusaya) from that place?
As for the eighth person (aṭṭhamaka): in the three feelings (vedanā) in the sense-sphere element (kāmadhātu), in the form element (rūpadhātu), and in the formless element (arūpadhātu), he does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from that place, but it is not the case that he does not abandon the latent tendency of doubt from that place. That same person, in the unincluded (apariyāpanna), does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit and does not abandon the latent tendency of doubt from that place. Excepting the one endowed with the supreme path (aggamagga-samaṅgī) and the eighth person, the remaining persons, in all places, do not abandon the latent tendency of conceit and do not abandon the latent tendency of doubt.
Or rather, one who does not abandon the latent tendency of doubt from some place — does he not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from that place?
As for the one endowed with the supreme path: in the two feelings in the sense-sphere element, in the form element, and in the formless element, he does not abandon the latent tendency of doubt from that place, but it is not the case that he does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from that place. That same person, in painful feeling (dukkhā vedanā) and in the unincluded, does not abandon the latent tendency of doubt and does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from that place. Excepting the one endowed with the supreme path and the eighth person, the remaining persons, in all places, do not abandon the latent tendency of doubt and do not abandon the latent tendency of conceit.
One who does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from some place — does he not abandon the latent tendency of lust for existence (bhavarāgānusaya) from that place?
Yes.
Or rather, one who does not abandon the latent tendency of lust for existence from some place — does he not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from that place?
As for the one endowed with the supreme path: in the two feelings in the sense-sphere element, he does not abandon the latent tendency of lust for existence from that place, but it is not the case that he does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from that place. That same person, in painful feeling and in the unincluded, does not abandon the latent tendency of lust for existence and does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from that place. Excepting the one endowed with the supreme path, the remaining persons, in all places, do not abandon the latent tendency of lust for existence and do not abandon the latent tendency of conceit.
One who does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from some place — does he not abandon the latent tendency of ignorance (avijjānusaya) from that place?
As for the one endowed with the supreme path: in painful feeling, he does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from that place, but it is not the case that he does not abandon the latent tendency of ignorance from that place. That same person, in the unincluded, does not abandon the latent tendency of conceit and does not abandon the latent tendency of ignorance from that place. Excepting the one endowed with the supreme path, the remaining persons, in all places, do not abandon the latent tendency of conceit and do not abandon the latent tendency of ignorance.
Or rather, one who does not abandon the latent tendency of ignorance from some place — does he not abandon the latent tendency of conceit from that place?
