Like to a guest-house into which come
folk from all quarters to take up their residence, a monk, who develops the
Noble Eightfold Path, realises those states (the five upādānakkhandhā) that
should be realised, abandons those (aviijā and bhavatanhā) that should be
abandoned and cultivates samatha and vipassanā. S. v.51-2.
