By Not Clinging, They Are Freed

Clinging they look upon with fear,

For it produces birth and death;

And by not clinging they are freed,

In the destruction of birth and death.

They reside in joy for they are safe,

And reach Nibbāna (Enlightenment) here and now.

They are beyond all fear and hate;

They have escaped all discontentedness.

(Reference: MN 130)

In this Teaching from Gotama Buddha, he shares how by not clinging a Practitioner is freed from all discontentedness.

If there is clinging in the mind, there will be fear with continued birth and death. But by the elimination of clinging, the mind is freed from discontentedness.

By elimination of discontentedness, a Practitioner will know they have eliminated rebirth in The Cycle of Rebirth. The mind can reside joyful as it is now safe having made a full escape from The Cycle of Rebirth through attaining Enlightenment.

An Enlightened mind no longer experiences any fear or hate, it has eliminated all discontentedness.
