These are the four non-perversions of perception, non-perversions of mind, non-perversions of view." Perceiving constancy in the inconstant, pleasure in the stressful, self in whatâs not-self, attractiveness in the unattractive, beings, destroyed by wrong-view, go mad, out of their minds. Bound to Mṅraâs yoke, from the yoke they find no rest. Beings go on to the wandering-on, leading to birth & death. But when Awakened Ones arise in the world, bringing light to the world, they proclaim the Dhamma leading to the stilling of stress. When those with discernment listen, they regain their senses, seeing      the inconstant as inconstant, the stressful as stressful, whatâs not-self as not-self, the unattractive as unattractive. Undertaking right view, they transcend all stress & suffering. See also: SN 4:19; SN 22:59; SN 35:101; AN 4:179; Ud 3:10; Sn 1:11 - --> - - - -
