24. Catutthe yato yatoti pāpato vā kalyāṇato vā. Ayaṃ kira devatā ‘‘yaṃkiñci kusalādibhedaṃ lokiyaṃ vā lokuttaraṃ vā mano, taṃ nivāretabbameva, na uppādetabba’’nti evaṃladdhikā . Sa sabbatoti so sabbato. Atha bhagavā – ‘‘ayaṃ devatā aniyyānikakathaṃ katheti, mano nāma nivāretabbampi atthi bhāvetabbampi, vibhajitvā namassā dassessāmī’’ti cintetvā dutiyagāthaṃ āha. Tattha na mano saṃyatattamāgatanti, yaṃ vuttaṃ ‘‘na sabbato mano nivāraye’’ti, kataraṃ taṃ mano, yaṃ taṃ sabbato na nivāretabbanti ce. Mano saṃyatattaṃ āgataṃ, yaṃ mano yattha saṃyatabhāvaṃ āgataṃ, ‘‘dānaṃ dassāmi, sīlaṃ rakkhissāmī’’tiādinā nayena uppannaṃ, etaṃ mano na nivāretabbaṃ, aññadatthu brūhetabbaṃ vaḍḍhetabbaṃ. Yato yato ca pāpakanti yato yato akusalaṃ uppajjati, tato tato ca taṃ nivāretabbanti. Catutthaṃ.
