Ek±yano aya½, bhikkhave, maggo This is the one and only path. Satt±na½ visuddhiy±: to purify individuals. This at the mental level. Washing the body externally will not purify the mind. The results of this purification follow: Soka-paridev±na½ samatikkam±ya: transcending very deep sorrow, soka, and its manifestation in crying and lamenta- tion, parideva. As you practise, it comes to the surface and observing, you pass beyond it, samatikkam±ya. Dukkha-domanass±na½ atthaªgam±ya. At a subtler level there is still unpleasant feeling in the mind, domanassa, and unpleasant sensation on the body, dukkha. These also are eradicated, atthaªgam±ya. ѱyassa adhigam±ya. ѱya means truth. If you work with contemplation or imagination such results will not come. Only the surface of the mind is purified. The deepest mis- ery can only be taken out when you observe the reality of mind and matter and their interconnection
