3 - Cittavagga, The Mind
5 - Cittahatthatthera Vatthu
Anavatthitacittassa, saddhammam avijanato;38: If a man's mind is unsteady, if he is ignorant of the true Dhamma, and if his faith is wavering, then his knowledge will never be perfect.
pariplavapasadassa, panna na paripurati.
Anavassutacittassa, ananvahatacetaso;
punnapapapahinassa, natthi jagarato bhayam.
39: If a man's mind is free from passion, if he is free from ill will, if he has abandoned both good and evil, and if he is vigilant, for such a man there is no danger.
