Giving Up Theory of Self Attānudiṭṭhipahānasutta
Then a mendicant went up to the Buddha … Atha kho aññataro bhikkhu …pe… and said to him: etadavoca:
“Sir, how does one know and see so that theory of self is given up?” “kathaṁ nu kho, bhante, jānato kathaṁ passato attānudiṭṭhi pahīyatī”ti?
“Mendicant, knowing and seeing the eye, sights, eye consciousness, and eye contact as not-self, theory of self is given up. … “Cakkhuṁ kho, bhikkhu, anattato jānato passato attānudiṭṭhi pahīyati. Rūpe anattato jānato passato attānudiṭṭhi pahīyati. Cakkhuviññāṇaṁ anattato jānato passato attānudiṭṭhi pahīyati. Cakkhusamphassaṁ anattato jānato passato attānudiṭṭhi pahīyati. Yampidaṁ cakkhusamphassapaccayā uppajjati vedayitaṁ sukhaṁ vā dukkhaṁ vā adukkhamasukhaṁ vā tampi anattato jānato passato attānudiṭṭhi pahīyati …pe… jivhaṁ anattato jānato passato attānudiṭṭhi pahīyati …pe…
manaṁ anattato jānato passato attānudiṭṭhi pahīyati. Dhamme … manoviññāṇaṁ … manosamphassaṁ … And also knowing and seeing the pleasant, painful, or neutral feeling that arises conditioned by mind contact as not-self, theory of self is given up.” yampidaṁ manosamphassapaccayā uppajjati vedayitaṁ sukhaṁ vā dukkhaṁ vā adukkhamasukhaṁ vā tampi anattato jānato passato attānudiṭṭhi pahīyatī”ti.
