अणवयग्गं दीहमद्धं चाउरंतसंसारकतार अणुपरियठेइ से तेणट्टेणं गोयमा! असंवुडे अणगारे णो सिज्झइ जाव...णो अंतं करेइ।
Q. 56. Bhante ! Is the non-restrained homeless perfected, enlightened, liberated ? Does he attain total liberation ? Does he end all misery ?
A. 56. Gautama ! This interpretation
is not acceptable.
Q. 57. Bhante! For what reason, ...till he does not end all misery ?
___ A. 57. Gautama ! Barring karma determining life-span, a non-restrained homeless transforms the loosely-bound karma of seven kinds into deeply-bound ones, the short-span ones into the long-span ones, the slow-effect ones into the deep-effect ones, and those with few space-units into those with more spaceunits. As to karma determining life-span, sometimes he binds them and sometimes he doesn't. Again and again he acquires karma causing a feeling of pain, and again and again he moves in this timeless, limitless, long-route, four-state46 forest-like world. For this reason, Gautama, the non-restrained homeless does not become perfected, ...till not end all misery.
