“Mendicants, an individual accomplished in view can’t give rise to six things. What six? Substantialist view, doubt, misapprehension of precepts and observances, and forms of greed, hate, and delusion that lead to rebirth in places of loss. An individual accomplished in view can’t give rise to these six things.”
