Here's the revised attempt for verse 11 and a first run on 12.
Also want to say I think it's great that you've translated the Mahayana
MahaParinirvana.

I do not say, monks, I regard any other thing to so account for unarisen
attachment to sensual pleasure arising, and arisen attachment to sensual
pleasure developing in abundance as pleasurable perceptual forms.

Improper attention to pleasureable perceptual forms, monks, causes unborn
attachment to sensual pleasure to arise, and arisen attachment to sensual
pleasure to develop in abundance.>
This is the first thing.

byaapaada - malevolence, ill-will, anger
pa.tigha - repugnance, repulsion, anger

<I do not say, monks, I regard another thing to so account for unarisen
ill-will arising, or arisen ill-will to develop in abundance, as repulsive
perceptual forms. Improper attention to repulsive perceptual forms, monks
causes unarisen ill-will to arise, and arisen ill-will to develop in
