#2 <To be understood> -original

At Savatthi
As he thus sat at one side the Exalted thus addressed the venerable Radha:
'I will show you the things to be understood, and the understanding, and the
person who has understood. Do you listen to it.'

The Exalted One thus spake: "And what, Radha, are the things to be understood?
Body, Radha, is the thing to be understood: so is the feeling, perception, the
activities. Consciousness is a thing to be understood.
These, Radha, are the things to be understood.

And what, Radha, is understanding?
The destruction of lust, the destruction of hatred, the destruction of illusion,
−this, Radha, is called "understanding."

And who, Radha, is the person who has understood?
"Worthy" should he be called, that venerable one of such and such a name, of
such and such a clan, −that, Radha, is the meaning of "the person who has un-
derstood."



Rewrite the Exalted One to Buddha, feelimg to sensation, the activities to for-
mation, lust to greed, hatred to anger, illusion to foolishness.

Looking for the essence of this sutta, I delete the unnecessary words.
