While he,k observing the satisfaction, is attached, bound and infatuated, the five khandhas of grasping go on to future accumulation.  And his craving, which is connected with again-becoming, accompanied by attachment and delight, finding its pleasure here and there, increases in him.  And his physical anxieties increase,k and mental anxieties increase, and physical torments increase, and mental torments increase, and physical fevers increase, and mental fevers increase.  He experiences anguish of body and anguish of mind.
