Ajahn Hasapanna discusses sutta 22 from the Majjhima Nikaya: Alagaddūpama Sutta – “The Simile of the Snake” and is using Bhikkhu Bodhi’s translation.
Read MN22 on Sutta Central here:
“One of the monks denies that prohibited conduct is really a problem. The monks and then the Buddha subject him to an impressive dressing down. The Buddha compares someone who understands only the letter of the teachings to someone who grabs a snake by the tail, and also invokes the famous simile of the raft.”, Sutta Central.

Click here to read MN1 on Sutta Central.

An unawakened person interprets experience in terms of a self, while those more advanced have the same experiences without attachment.", Sutta Central.
