thank you for the feedback which is an encouragement to ask the group for advise in case of occasional doubts .
I think we may agree about the meaning of the text : the Teacher proclaimed taming greed by (the) discipline . Subdue still a better choice than
to remove (greed or passion) , as this term misses the point that the training of the Noble Path is needed , i.e. not only sila, but samadhi and panna as well.
Being an amateur of Pali language study , I better be careful with an opinion but I wonder about the connection with vineti , which - if I get that correctly from the entrees of PTS- provides only a chance of 1:86 .
