The best approach might be:
Any view/concept/idea regarding ending the defilements PRIOR to actually ending the defilements is a conditioned phenomena.
Since one is clearly only caught up with proliferating the unproliferated.
If, just as an example, cessation was really true, then we wouldn’t have the following:
“If you say that ‘when the six fields of contact have faded away and ceased with nothing left over, ‘nothing else exists’,
you’re proliferating the unproliferated.
So since it can’t be said to be true prior to ending the defilements, khandhas, this means it can’t even be said to be true AFTER ending the defilements… Right?
