Bhagavan Gotam said, “He who is not learned in Arya Dharma (The Truth) knows earth as earth; Knowing earth as earth, he maintains earth (as himself), he maintains (himself) in the earth, he maintains (his use) from the earth, he maintains that earth belongs to him, he welcomes earth. In this way he deals with water, fire, air, all the worldly beings, celestials, space, consciousness (derived through senses and mind), all objects capable of being seen or heard. He welcomes them all ; because he is ignorant, thus I say. And again 0: Monks ! That Saint, who walks after having known that Nirvana is the best and realisable by concentration, also knows earth, as earth; and having known earth as earth, he does not maintain earth (as himself), does not maintain himself) in the earth, does not maintain (his use) from the earth, does not maintain earth to be his own, he does not welcome
