3. ßMonks, these four are extremes. What four? Extreme self view, extreme of the arising of self view, extreme of the cessation of self view and the extreme of the path, leading to the cessation of self view.

4. ßMonks, what is extreme self view? The reply is the five holding masses. What five? The holding masses of matter, feelings, perceptions, intentions, and consciousness. Monks, to this is said the extreme self view.

5. ßMonks, what is the extreme of the arising of self view? It is craving to be again, with interest and greed, delighting here and there, such as craving for sensuality, craving to be and craving not to be. Monks, to this is called the extreme, of the arising of self view.
