A limited-object phenomenon is a condition for a limited-object phenomenon by way of object condition. Having given alms, having undertaken precepts, having performed the Uposatha observance, t reflects on it, reflects on good deeds done before, Noble Ones reflect on defilements abandoned in a limited object, reflect on defilements suppressed, know defilements accumulated before. In a limited object, one discerns the limited aggregates as impermanent, as suffering, as not-self, enjoys and delights in them. Because of that, craving for a limited object arises... sorrow arises.
