"In seeing six rewards, it's enough motivation for a monk to establish the perception of not-self with regard to all phenomena without exception. Which six? 'I won't be fashioned in connection with any world. My I-making will be stopped. My my-making will be stopped. I'll be endowed with uncommon knowledge.[1] I'll become one who rightly sees cause, along with causally-originated phenomena.'
"In seeing these six rewards, it's enough motivation for a monk to establish the perception of not-self with regard to all phenomena without exception."
Notes
- 1.
- According to the Commentary, uncommon knowledge is knowledge in which unawakened people have no share.
