1) 'A person with evil desires, and dominated by evil desires is to me uncomfortable and unpleasant. If I had a bad desires, and was dominated by evil desires, I would unpleasant and disagreeable to others'. The monk who knows, it should stimulate your mind like, 'I will not have evil desires, and will not be dominated by evil desires. "

So when a monk or monks studying so he sees the bad negative states are not abandoned him it should make the effort to abandon them all. But when a monk studying so he sees that all these states are abandoned him, then you can take a happy and satisfied, training day and night conditions favorable. Here's what he told the venerable Maha Moggallana. The monks were pleased and comforted with words of the Venerable Maha Moggallany.
