It’s Not Yours (2nd)
“Mendicants, give up what’s not yours. Giving it up will be for your welfare and happiness. And what isn’t yours?
The eye isn’t yours: give it up. Giving it up will be for your welfare and happiness. Sights … Eye consciousness … Eye contact …
The pleasant, painful, or neutral feeling that arises dependent on mind contact isn’t yours: give it up. Giving it up will be for your welfare and happiness.
Give up what’s not yours. Giving it up will be for your welfare and happiness.”
