     As they do so, that lingering residue is eradicated.

     Seyyathāpi, āvuso, vatthaṁ saṅkiliṭṭhaṁ malaggahitaṁ. Tamenaṁ sāmikā rajakassa anupadajjuṁ.

     Suppose there was a cloth that was dirty and soiled, so the owners give it to a launderer.

113. 113

     Tamenaṁ rajako ūse vā khāre vā gomaye vā sammadditvā acche udake vikkhāleti.

     The launderer kneads it thoroughly with salt, lye, and cow dung, and rinses it in clear water.

114. 114

     Although that cloth is clean and bright, it still has a lingering scent of salt, lye, or cow dung that had not been eradicated.

115. 115

     Tamenaṁ rajako sāmikānaṁ deti. Tamenaṁ sāmikā gandhaparibhāvite karaṇḍake nikkhipanti.

     The launderer returns it to its owners, who store it in a fragrant casket.

     And that lingering scent would be eradicated.

     In the same way, although a noble disciple has given up the five lower fetters, they still have a lingering residue of the conceit ‘I am’, the desire ‘I am’, and the underlying tendency ‘I am’ which has not been eradicated.

     So aparena samayena pañcasu upādānakkhandhesu udayabbayānupassī viharati.

     After some time they meditate observing rise and fall in the five grasping aggregates.

     ‘Iti rūpaṁ, iti rūpassa samudayo, iti rūpassa atthaṅgamo;

     ‘Such is form, such is the origin of form, such is the disappearance of form.

     Evaṁ vutte, therā bhikkhū āyasmantaṁ khemakaṁ etadavocuṁ:

     When he said this, the senior mendicants said to Venerable Khemaka,

126. 126

     “नna खोkho मयंma·yaṃ आयस्मन्तंā·yas·man·taṃ खेमकंkhe·ma·kaṃ विहेसापेखाvi·he·sā·pe·khā पुच्छिम्ह,puc·chim·ha अपिa·pi चायस्माcā·yas·mā खेमकोkhe·ma·ko पहोसिpa·ho·si तस्सtas·sa भगवतोbha·ga·va·to सासनंsā·sa·naṃ वित्थारेनvit·thā·re·na आचिक्खितुंā·cik·khi·tuṃ देसेतुंde·se·tuṃ पञ्ञापेतुंpañ·ñā·pe·tuṃ पट्ठपेतुंpaṭ·ṭha·pe·tuṃ विवरितुंvi·va·ri·tuṃ विभजितुंvi·bha·ji·tuṃ उत्तानीकातुं।ut·tā·nī·kā·tuṃ

     “We didn’t want to trouble Venerable Khemaka with our questions. But you’re capable of explaining, teaching, asserting, establishing, clarifying, analyzing, and revealing the Buddha’s instructions in detail.

127. 127

     Tayidaṁ āyasmatā khemakena tassa bhagavato sāsanaṁ vitthārena ācikkhitaṁ desitaṁ paññāpitaṁ paṭṭhapitaṁ vivaritaṁ vibhajitaṁ uttānīkatan”ti.

     And that’s just what you’ve done.”

128. 128

     इदमवोचi·da·ma·vo·ca आयस्माā·yas·mā खेमको।khe·ma·ko

     Idamavoca āyasmā khemako.

     That is what Venerable Khemaka said.

129. 129

     अत्तमनाat·ta·ma·nā थेराthe·rā भिक्खूbhik·khū आयस्मतोā·yas·ma·to खेमकस्सkhe·ma·kas·sa भासितंbhā·si·taṃ अभिनन्दुं।a·bhi·nan·duṃ

     Attamanā therā bhikkhū āyasmato khemakassa bhāsitaṁ abhinanduṁ.

     Satisfied, the senior mendicants approved what Khemaka said.

130. 130

     इमस्मिञ्चi·mas·miñ·ca पनpa·na वेय्याकरणस्मिंvey·yā·ka·ra·ṇas·miṃ भञ्ञमानेbhañ·ña·mā·ne सट्ठिमत्तानंsaṭ·ṭhi·mat·tā·naṃ थेरानंthe·rā·naṃ भिक्खूनंbhik·khū·naṃ अनुपादायa·nu·pā·dā·ya आसवेहिā·sa·ve·hi चित्तानिcit·tā·ni विमुच्चिंसु,vi·muc·ciṃ·su आयस्मतोā·yas·ma·to खेमकस्सkhe·ma·kas·sa चाति।cā·ti

     And while this discourse was being spoken, the minds of sixty senior mendicants and of Venerable Khemaka were freed from defilements by not grasping.
