| Feb 26, 2017 at 11:15 | comment | added | Dhamma Dhatu | the key unwholesome term in MN 1 appears to be 'maññati' ,which can be connected to conceit. MN 140 explicitly refers to maññati as 'conceiving self', as follows: "Asmī’ti, bhikkhu, maññitametaṃ". The tides of conceiving (maññassavā) do not sweep over one who stands upon these foundations. Bhikkhu, ‘I am’ is a conceiving; ‘I am this’ is a conceiving (maññita); ‘I shall be’ is a conceiving; MN 140. . maññita pp. of maññati suttacentral.net/define/ma%C3%B1%C3%B1ita | |

By the time you attain cessation, no aspect of your perception will be based on the extremes of attachment or aversion, so saying you are jumping from a conditioned experience to an unconditioned one is ignoring that the trainee is abandoning a reliance on conditions as a process. | |
