Having esteemed what was formerly well practiced … Having emerged from jhāna, having esteemed the jhāna … Having esteemed the base (vatthu) and the aggregates (khandhā) to be abandoned neither by seeing nor by development, one relishes and delights in them; having esteemed that, lust to be abandoned by seeing arises, view arises.
