who has abandoned the idea of "good" and "bad" and who is watchful.

    The subject of the sentence is the word bhayaṃ (fear, nominative singular) and the verb is atthi (is, 3rd person, singular, active, indicative, present tense) negated by the negative particle na (not). There is a multiple object, consisting of four words: 1) anavassutacittassa (of the one, whose mind is not filled with desires), 2) ananvāhatacetaso (of the one, whose mind is not perplexed), 3) puññapāpapahīnassa (of the one, who has abandoned the idea of "good" and "bad") and 4) jāgarato (of the watchful one). They all have to agree and are therefore in genitive singular.

    The story for this verse is identical with the previous one (DhP 38).
    If the mind is unsteady, the confidence in the Teaching wavering and one is not really resolved to do anything about it, the wisdom will not grow. But with a strong conscientiousness and watchfulness, the mind can get rid of the passions and unsteadiness. Then one is able to abandon all the ideas of good and evil and become free, just like the man from our story did.
