The Veeyana Khand in the Chakkhandagama
[4, 2, 7, 9]
It should be understood that the meaning of this Sutra is that the section bound by such a being, which is present due to its essence, is superior to the pain feeling of its knowledge-obscuring.
That of a one-sense, or two-sense, or three-sense, or four-sense, or five-sense, or conscious, or unconscious, or subtle, or sufficient, or insufficient, or other being, existing in another motion, is superior to the pain feeling of its knowledge-obscuring. || 9 ||
The said superior section's essence is of a one-sense, or two-sense, or three-sense, or four-sense, or five-sense, or conscious, or unconscious, or subtle, or sufficient, or insufficient, or other being, existing in another motion; therefore, the said superior section's essence is superior to the pain feeling of its knowledge-obscuring. || 9 ||
There is a different, inferior feeling of pain. || 10 ||
Similarly, one should know the form of the feeling of pain related to the sight-obscuring, delusion-obscuring, and obstruction. || 11 ||
In the superior term, whose pain feeling is superior to the pain feeling of the pain-worthy? || 12 ||
Whose section is bound by another subtle-existence-purification-restrained destroyer in the final time, and whose essence is that, is superior to the pain feeling of the pain-worthy. || 13 ||
To explain whose essence it is, this further Sutra is said:
Its essence is of the one who has destroyed the subtle passions, is free from attachment, is veiled, and is a perfect yogi, therefore, their pain-worthy is superior to the pain feeling. || 14 ||
