Things That Tighten Fetters
“Mendicants, I will teach you the things that tighten the fetters, and the fetter.
Listen …
What are the things that tighten the fetters? And what is the fetter?
The eye is something that tightens the fetters.
The desire and greed for it is the fetter.
The ear … nose … tongue … body …
mind is something that tightens the fetters.
The desire and greed for it is the fetter.
These are called the things that tighten the fetters, and this is the fetter.”
