Visuddhimagga XIV-208

Vatthuvasena cāpi hīnavatthukā yā kāci vedanā oḷārikā, paṇītavatthukā sukhumā.
依事物说,任何由劣的事物所起的受为粗,由胜的事物所起的受为细。
Ñ(XIV,208): And according to physical basis, any feeling that has an inferior physical basis is gross, while one with a superior physical basis is subtle.


Hīnapaṇītabhede yā oḷārikā, sā hīnā. Yā ca sukhumā, sā paṇītāti daṭṭhabbā.
次依「劣、胜」的分别,当知那粗的受为劣,而细的受为胜。
Ñ: (viii)-(ix) What is gross should be regarded as inferior in the inferior-superior classification, and what is subtle superior.
