1"Bhikkhus, there are these two kinds of happiness. What two? Worldly happiness and spiritual happiness. [n.302] The contrast is between sāmisaṁ sukhaṁ, which Mp defines as defiled happiness that leads back to the round (of existence), and nirāmisaṁ sukhaṁ, undefiled happiness that leads to the end of the round. These are the two kinds of happiness. Of these two kinds of happiness, spiritual happiness is foremost."
