增支部5集7經/欲經(莊春江譯)[SA.685]
「
比丘們！眾生大多數是在諸欲上嬉戲者。比丘們！
善男子捨去鐮刀、扁擔後
從在家出家成為無家者，『從信出家的善男子』是適當的言語，那是什麼原因？比丘們！而那些像這樣的或像那樣的欲應該被青年得到，比丘們！凡下等的諸欲、凡中間的諸欲、凡勝妙的諸欲，一切欲都名為(就走到稱呼)『諸欲』。比丘們！猶如年幼愚鈍仰臥的男童，因奶媽的放逸，取木片或小石到口中，奶媽極快速地
作意那個，極快速地作意後，極快速地取出。如果不能夠極快速地取出，以左手抱頭、以右手作指鉤後取出，即使有血，那是什麼原因？我說：『比丘們！這對孩子有傷害，這非沒有。』比丘們！而這是想要有利的、尋求利益的、有憐愍的、
出自憐愍的奶媽的責任。比丘們！但當那個孩子已長大，有足夠慧，比丘們！現在奶媽在那個孩子上是無關注的：『現在自我守護的孩子不足以放逸。』
同樣的，比丘們！只要比丘在諸善法上有以信未作的，在諸善法上有以
慚未作的，在諸善法上有以
愧未作的，在諸善法上有以活力未作的，在諸善法上有以慧未作的，比丘們！那位比丘仍然應該被我隨守護。比丘們！但當比丘在諸善法上有以信已作的，在諸善法上有以慚已作的，在諸善法上有以愧已作的，在諸善法上有以活力已作的，在諸善法上有以慧已作的，比丘們！現在我在那位比丘上是無關注的：『現在自我守護的比丘不足以放逸。』」
