1“Mendicants, there are these four attachments. What four? The attachment to sensual pleasures, future lives, views, and ignorance.

---

And what is the attachment to sensual pleasures? It’s when you don’t truly understand sensual pleasures’ origin, ending, gratification, drawback, and escape. So greed, relishing, affection, infatuation, thirst, passion, attachment, and craving for sensual pleasures linger on inside. This is called the attachment to sensual pleasures. Such is the attachment to sensual pleasures.

2And what is the attachment to future lives? It’s when you don’t truly understand future lives’ origin, ending, gratification, drawback, and escape. So lust, delight, affection, infatuation, thirst, passion, attachment, and craving for continued existence linger on inside. This is called the attachment to future lives. Such are the attachments to sensual pleasures and future lives.

3And what is the attachment to views? It’s when you don’t truly understand views’ origin, ending, gratification, drawback, and escape. So lust, delight, affection, infatuation, thirst, passion, attachment, and craving for views linger on inside. This is called the attachment to views. Such are the attachments to sensual pleasures, future lives, and views.

---

4And what is the attachment to ignorance? It’s when you don’t truly understand the six fields of contacts’ origin, ending, gratification, drawback, and escape, so ignorance and unknowing of the six fields of contact linger on inside. This is called the attachment to ignorance.

Such are the attachments to sensual pleasures, future lives, views, and ignorance. Someone attached to bad, unskillful qualities — corruptions that lead to future lives and are hurtful, resulting in suffering and future rebirth, old age, and death — is called: ‘one who has not found sanctuary from attachments’.

These are the four attachments.

This is called detachment from ignorance. Such is detachment from sensual pleasures, future lives, views, and ignorance. Someone detached from bad, unskillful qualities — defilements that lead to future lives and are hurtful, resulting in suffering and future rebirth, old age, and death — is called: ‘one who has found sanctuary from attachments’.

These are the four kinds of detachment.

---

9Attached to both sensual pleasures
and the desire to be reborn in a future life;
attached also to views,
with ignorance in the forefront,

10sentient beings continue to transmigrate,
with ongoing birth and death.
But those who completely understand sensual pleasures,
and the attachment to all future lives;

11with the attachment to views eradicated,
and ignorance dispelled,
detached from all attachments,
those sages have gone beyond all attachments.”
