Description of manuscript content:

Mahāpaṭṭhāna session or Paccaya 24 defines causes and factors of the Dhamma or emotions. For example, if we meritoriously behave, we will be reborn in heaven. If we sinfully behave, we will be reborn in hell. The fact is compared to a deeply rooted Bodhi tree that never falls down by storm. Emotions causing affection, anger, and delusion shake our minds. This is compared to the blind who depends on a rail for a walk or to a cowman who must remember the number and the characters of his cows in order to take care of them.

Colophon:

ปริปุณณะแล้วยามพลันเนิอ ฯ อรหนฺตามคฺคญาณํ นิพฺพานํ ปรมํ สุกฺขํ นิจํ ธุวธํ ธุเม ฯ [The writing of this manuscript] was completed in the evening. Arahantā maggañāṇaṃ nibbānaṃ paramaṃ sukhaṃ niccaṃ duvaṃ dume.
