Sūta continued: The following are the defects of the mind viz. (false) perception of eternity in what is transient; perception of happiness in what is misery, the knowledge that what is not one’s own is one’s own and the decisive knowledge that what is not pure is pure. Those who have these mental defects do have the defects of knowledge through misapprehension. If Rāga (attachment) and Dveṣa (hatred) recede, that is cited as true knowledge.
