Cetokhila Sutta
1. Cetokhila Sutta.- While the five fallows of his heart (cetokhilÄ) are left untilled — doubts about the Teacher, about the Dhamma, about the Order and the course of training, lack of ardour — and the five bondages are unshattered (attachment to sensual pleasures, to the body, to visible forms, over-eating, desire to be born among the gods) — no monk can possibly show growth and progress in the Dhamma and the Vinaya. M.i.101ff 2. Cetokhila Sutta.- Fallowness of heart arises from doubt in the Buddha, the Dhamma, the Saá¹…gha, and the way of training (sikkhÄ), and from anger against one’s fellow-celibates. (Book of Fives, A.iii.248) See also: D.iii.237; Vibh.377. 3. Cetokhila Sutta.- The five fallows (cetokhilÄ) mentioned in (1). In order to destroy them the four foundations of mindfulness (satipaá¹á¹hÄna) should be developed. (Book of Nines, A.iv.460). 4. Cetokhila Sutta.- Same as the above, but here, in the Book of Tens, the five mental bondages (vinibandhÄ), which are elsewhere given as a separate section (see the Vinibandha Sutta), are added at the end of the five types of fallowness (khilÄ). (Book of Tens, A.v.17ff).
