The Chapter on Pairs
1-2.
Commentary on the Pair of Discourses on Faith
71-72. "Is not moral" means one who does not fulfil the moral precepts. "Pleasing on all sides" means one who generates confidence all around. "Complete in every respect" means complete in all the aspects of an ascetic, in all the portions of the duties of an ascetic. In the second, "peaceful" means peaceful through the continuity of the opposite. "Deliverances" means deliverances because of being liberated from opposing states.
3-9.
Commentary on the Pair of Discourses on Recollection of Death and So On
73-79. In the third, "bhāvetha no" means "bhāvetha nu" (do you develop). "Teaching" means instruction. "For the elimination of mental corruptions" means for the purpose of the fruition of arahantship. In the fourth, "patihitāya" means for one who is practising. "That would be an obstacle for me" means that would be an obstacle to my life, and for one making a worldling's death, it would be an obstacle to heaven and an obstacle to the path. "Cutting winds" means winds that cut through the various limbs like a knife - thus "cutting." The fifth and so on are just according to the method already stated. In the ninth, "delight in bonding" means delight in the fivefold bonding.
10.
Commentary on the Discourse on the Grounds for Laziness and Arousing Energy
80. In the tenth, "cases of laziness" means the cases, the supports, the causes of idleness of one who is lazy and idle - this is the meaning. "Has work to be done" means work such as examining robes and so on has to be done. "Does not arouse energy" means he does not arouse energy of both kinds. "Of the unattained" means for the attainment of the unattained states of meditative absorption, insight, path and fruition. "Of the unachieved" means for the purpose of achieving that very same unachieved. "Of the unrealised" means for the purpose of realising that very same unrealised. "This is the first" means this sinking thus "come, let me lie down" is the first case of laziness. By this method the meaning should be understood everywhere. In "as if stuffed with beans, methinks," however, "stuffed with beans" means wet beans. The intention is: heavy just as wet beans are heavy. "Has recovered from illness" means having been ill, he has afterwards recovered. "Cases for arousing energy" means causes for energy. The meaning of those too should be understood by this very method. The remainder is clear everywhere.
The Chapter on Pairs is the eighth.
