"Visakha, my friend, there are three classes of feelings:those falling under pleasant, good, and warm, those fallingunder painful, evil, and cold, and those falling under neutral,dispassionate, and tepid.""Venerable Lady, what are the feelings falling under pleasant,good, and warm? What are the feelings falling under painful,evil, and cold? What are the feelings falling under neutral,dispassionate, and tepid?"Visakha, my friend, any feeling that a man finds to bring<strong>com</strong>fort, any feeling that a man thinks to his liking, and anyfeeling that a man savors falls under pleasant, good, andwarm. Any feeling that a man finds to bring agony, andfeeling that a man finds not to his liking, and any feeling thata man loathes falls under painful, evil and cold. Any feelingthat a man cannot bring himself to care about, any feelingthat a man finds to arise boredom, and any feeling that doesnot stir any emotion at all in a man falls under neutral,dispassionate, insipid and tepid."Venerable Lady, in pleasant feelings, what is good and whatis bad? In unpleasant feelings, what is bad, and what is good?In tepid, insipid feelings, what is good, and what is bad?""Visakha, my friend, in the pleasant feelings, it’s presence isconsidered good, it’s removal is considered bad. Inunpleasant feelings, it is exactly the opposite, it’s presencebeing considered bad, it’s removal being considered good. Ininsipid, tepid feelings, knowledge is wonderful, to beembraced: it brings realizations; while boredom in insipid,tepid feelings is to be shunned, it causes restlessness, andthat leads to re-entering the cycle of pleasant andunpleasant.262
"Venerable Lady, what dormant, hidden feelings are to befound in pleasant, unpleasant, and insipid, tepid feelings?""Visakha, my friend, pleasant feelings can uncover greedytendencies, slothful tendencies; attachment, clinging,grasping; tendencies that are not conducive toenlightenment. Unpleasant feelings can uncover fearfultendencies, the tendency to hide, aversion; attachment,clinging, grasping; and tendencies that are not conducive toenlightenment. Insipid, tepid feelings can uncover delusionsand misguided tendencies; attachment, clinging, grasping;tendencies that are not conducive to enlightenment."Venerable Lady, must greedy and slothful tendencies,attachment, clinging and grasping always be the result ofpleasant feelings? Must aversion and fear; attachment,clinging, and grasping tendencies always be the result ofunpleasant feelings? Must delusion always be the result ofinsipid, tepid feelings?""Nay, friend Visakha, nay. These three categories of feelingsdo not have to produce these results. By discarding whatneeds to be discarded, eliminating what needs to beeliminated, destroying what needs to be destroyed, thesetendencies do not have to be the result of the threecategories of feelings.""Venerable Lady, pray tell me what it is that must bedispelled from pleasant feelings, unpleasant feelings, andfrom insipid, tepid feelings.""Why, Visakha, greedy, slothful tendencies, attachment,clinging and grasping are, of course, what one discards anddestroys from pleasant feelings. Fear and aversion,attachment, clinging, and grasping are, naturally, what onediscards and destroys from unpleasant feelings, and263
