English version What is pure faith (净信, Jingxin)? Answer: If one harbors anger, slander, insult, contempt, or annoyance towards wise practitioners of the holy life (梵行者, Fanxingzhe), and consequently, one is unable to generate a compliant mind, compliant desire, compliant faith, or compliant conviction (胜解, Shengjie) towards them, whether they have already attained conviction or are about to attain it, this is called not comprehending, having no conviction, and having no pure faith. What is the fifth case? Answer: Gradual, sequential, continuous, and orderly, this is called the fifth case. What is meant by planting thorns (心栽, Xinzai) in the minds of wise practitioners of the holy life? Answer: If one harbors anger, slander, insult, contempt, or annoyance towards wise practitioners of the holy life, then one plants thorns in one's own mind. For example, even if a farmer has good land, if he does not cultivate it, it will become hard, full of thorns, weeds, and unable to grow anything, let alone good crops. Harboring anger, slander, insult, contempt, or annoyance towards wise practitioners of the holy life is the same; it obscures the mind, making it rigid and planting thorns, so that the mind cannot even attain a wrong decision, let alone a right decision. This is called planting thorns in the minds of wise practitioners of the holy life. What is meant by not abandoning and not fully knowing? Answer: If one has not subdued or permanently eradicated the thorns in one's mind, this is called not abandoning and not fully knowing. What are the five mental bonds (心缚, Xin fu)? Answer: Venerable sir, you should know that, for example, there are those who have not abandoned greed (Tanha, 渴愛), desire (Chanda, 意欲), attachment (Pema, 親愛), love (Raga, 貪愛), or craving (Pipasati, 渴求) for the body. Because they have not abandoned greed, etc., for the body, their minds cannot comprehend, have no pure faith, cannot abide, and have no conviction regarding the ardent practice, the permanent cessation of tranquility, and the attainment of the supreme meaning. If the mind cannot comprehend the ardent practice, etc., and has no conviction, this is called the first, the mental bond of not abandoning greed, etc., for the body has not been subdued or permanently eradicated. Furthermore, venerable sir, for example, there are those who have not abandoned greed, desire, attachment, love, or craving for various objects of desire. Because they have not abandoned greed, etc., for desires, their minds cannot comprehend, have no pure faith, cannot abide, and have no conviction regarding the ardent practice, the permanent cessation of tranquility, and the attainment of the supreme meaning. If the mind cannot comprehend the ardent practice, etc., and has no conviction, this is called the second, the mental bond of not abandoning greed, etc., for desires has not been subdued or permanently eradicated. Furthermore, venerable sir, for example, there are those --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: Being happy with and dwelling with laypeople and renunciates, sharing joy and sorrow, happiness and worries, engaging in all affairs together, ultimately following and revolving without abandoning each other. Because of being happy with and intermingling with laypeople and renunciates, one's mind cannot comprehend, lacks pure faith, cannot abide, and lacks superior understanding regarding attaining the supreme meaning through ardent exertion, complete cessation, and tranquil stillness. If one's mind cannot comprehend, lacks pure faith, cannot abide, and lacks superior understanding regarding ardent exertion, etc., this is called the third instance, where the mind is bound, not subdued, and not permanently harmed due to being attached to intermingling. Furthermore, Venerable (Ayushman, an honorific for virtuous elders), for example, there are those who, regarding various correct discourses—those that are rejected by the noble ones and that can lead the mind away from obscurations and are delightful—such as discourses on discipline (Shila, teachings on morality), discourses on concentration (Samadhi, teachings on meditation), discourses on wisdom (Prajna, teachings on wisdom), discourses on liberation (Vimoksha, teachings on liberation), discourses on the wisdom and vision of liberation (Vimoksha-jnana-darshana, teachings on the wisdom and insight of liberation), discourses on few desires (Alpecchatā, teachings on having few desires), discourses on contentment (Santushti, teachings on contentment), discourses on reduction (Samlekha, teachings on reducing defilements), discourses on simplicity (Protsāha, teachings on simplicity), discourses on complete cessation (Prahāna, teachings on complete cessation of suffering), discourses on detachment (Viraga, teachings on detachment), discourses on tranquility (Nirodha, teachings on cessation), discourses on dependent origination (Pratītyasamutpāda, teachings on dependent origination) and so on. When such discourses are proclaimed, they do not listen respectfully, do not lend an ear, do not abide with a receptive mind, do not practice in accordance with the Dharma, transgressing the Teacher's teachings, and are not happy to receive and learn in the various trainings. Because of not listening respectfully when such discourses are proclaimed, etc., one's mind cannot comprehend, lacks pure faith, cannot abide, and lacks superior understanding regarding attaining the supreme meaning through ardent exertion, complete cessation, and tranquil stillness. If one's mind cannot comprehend, lacks pure faith, cannot abide, and lacks superior understanding regarding ardent exertion, etc., this is called the fourth instance, where the mind is bound, not subdued, and not permanently harmed due to various correct discourses. Furthermore, Venerable (Ayushman, an honorific for virtuous elders), for example, there are those who attain some accomplishments when young, but then cease to strive for greater achievements later on. Because of attaining some accomplishments when young, etc., one's mind cannot comprehend, lacks pure faith, cannot abide, and lacks superior understanding regarding attaining the supreme meaning through ardent exertion, complete cessation, and tranquil stillness. If one's mind cannot comprehend, lacks pure faith, cannot abide, and lacks superior understanding regarding ardent exertion, etc., this is called the fifth instance, where the mind is bound, not subdued, and not permanently harmed due to later superior accomplishments. Here, 'not having abandoned greed for the body, not having abandoned desire, not having abandoned intimacy, not having abandoned love, not having abandoned thirst' refers to being attached to the body, causing the mind to be bound and unable to be liberated. Therefore, it is said 'not having abandoned greed for the body,' etc. Regarding attaining the supreme meaning through ardent exertion, complete cessation, and tranquil stillness --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
