Due to submission to the untruth, infatuation or illusion is nourished, leading to the production of lust. By the very means of alertness to the commandment of the scriptures, it is possible to bring an end to the lust. 3.67 Sahie dhammamādāya, seyam samaņupassati.

Says the Daśavaikālika (4/gāthā 11): “By listening to the scripute, one knows the good, one knows the evil, and one knows both. Having known the commandment of the scripute, one should practise what is conducive to the summum bonum.20 3.68 duhao jīviyassa, parivamdaņa-māņaņa-pūyaņāe, jamsi ege
pamādeņti. Under the sway of attachment and hatred, a person strives for survival, praise, reverence and honour. Even some aspirants subject themselves to non-vigilance for achieving these ends.
