And how do they die tormented by regrets?Kathañcāvuso, bhikkhu tathā tathā vihāraṁ kappeti yathā yathāssa vihāraṁ kappayato kālakiriyā anutappā hoti?

Take a mendicant who relishes work, talk, sleep, company, closeness, and proliferation. They love these things and like to relish them.Idhāvuso, bhikkhu kammārāmo hoti kammarato kammārāmataṁ anuyutto, bhassārāmo hoti … A mendicant who makes their bed like this must lie in it, and die tormented by regrets.Evaṁ kho, āvuso, bhikkhu tathā tathā vihāraṁ kappeti yathā yathāssa vihāraṁ kappayato kālakiriyā anutappā hoti. This is calledAyaṁ vuccatāvuso: a mendicant who enjoys substantial reality, who hasn’t given up substantial reality to rightly make an end of suffering.‘bhikkhu sakkāyābhirato nappajahāsi sakkāyaṁ sammā dukkhassa antakiriyāya’.

A beast who likes to proliferate,Yo papañcamanuyutto, enjoying proliferation,papañcābhirato mago; fails to win extinguishment,Virādhayī so nibbānaṁ, the supreme sanctuary from the yoke.yogakkhemaṁ anuttaraṁ.

But one who gives up proliferation,Yo ca papañcaṁ hitvāna, enjoying the state of non-proliferation,nippapañcapade rato; wins extinguishment,Ārādhayī so nibbānaṁ, the supreme sanctuary from the yoke.”yogakkhemaṁ anuttaran”ti.
