Luminous is this mind,
Brightly shining,
But it is colored by the
Attachments that visit it.
This, unlearned people
Do not really understand,
And so do not cultivate the mind.

Luminous is this mind,
Brightly shining,
And it is free of the
Attachments that visit it.
This the noble follower
Of the way really understands;
So for them there is
Cultivation of the mind.

Buddha from the Anguttara Nikaya
