I couldn't find anything Deshy, apart from an extract.

This is a link to 'Kamma - a study guide' at Access to insight. There's an excerpt from SN 12.51 at number 57 at the bottom of the page.


http://www.accesstoinsight.org/lib/study/kamma.html



"If a person immersed in ignorance fabricates a meritorious fabrication, his consciousness goes on to merit.

If he fabricates a demeritorious fabrication, his consciousness goes on to demerit.

If he fabricates an imperturbable fabrication, his consciousness goes on to the imperturbable.

When ignorance is abandoned by a monk, clear knowing arises.

From the fading of ignorance and the arising of knowledge, he neither fabricates a meritorious fabrication nor a demeritorious fabrication nor an imperturbable fabrication.

Neither fabricating nor willing, he is not sustained by anything in the world. Unsustained, he is not agitated.

Unagitated, he is totally unbound right within. He discerns that 'Birth is ended, the holy life fulfilled, the task done. There is nothing further for this world.'"
