- 54. කටඤ්ච අම්බට්ඨ භික්ඛු ඉන්ද්රියෙසු ගුත්තද්වාරො හොති? ඉධ
අම්බට්ඨ භික්ඛු චක්ඛුනා රූපං දිස්වා න නිමිත්තග්ගාහි හොති නානුබ්යඤ්ජ-
නග්ගාහි. යත්වාධිරණමෙතං චක්ඛුන්ද්රියං අසංවුතං විහරන්තං අභිජ්ඣා-
දොමනස්සා පාපකා අකුසලා ධම්මා අන්වාස්සවෙය්යුං තස්ස සංවරාය පටිපජ්ජති

Yatvādhikaraṇametaṃ cakkhundriyaṃ asaṃvutaṃ viharantaṃ abhijjhādomanassā pāpakā akusalā dhammā anvāssaveyyuṃ tassa saṃvarāya paṭipajjati rakkhati cakkhundriyaṃ, cakkhundriye saṃvaraṃ āpajjati.
- 54. And how, Ambattha, is the Bhikshu guarded as to the doors of his senses? When, Ambattha, he sees an object with his eye he is not entranced in the general appearance or the details of it. He sets himself to restrain that which might give occasion for evil states, covetousness and dejection, to flow in over him so long as he dwells unrestrained as to his sense of sight. He keeps watch upon his faculty of sight, and in the faculty he undergoes restraint.
- eye
