[181]

[1] Thus have I heard:

The Exalted One was once staying near Sāvatthī
at the Jeta Grove in Anāthapiṇḍika's Park.

And there the Exalted One addressed the brethren, saying:

"Brethren!"

"Master!" responded those brethren.

The Exalted One said:

"Brethren, the arising,
the establishing,
the rebirth,
the appearing of feeling born of contact by the eye, -
this is the arising of suffering,
the establishing of diseases,
the appearing of decay-and-death.

The arising,
the establishing,
the rebirth,
the appearing of feeling born of contact by the ear, -
this is the arising of suffering,
the establishing of diseases,
the appearing of decay-and-death.

The arising,
the establishing,
the rebirth,
the appearing of feeling born of contact by the nose, -
this is the arising of suffering,
the establishing of diseases,
the appearing of decay-and-death.

The arising,
the establishing,
the rebirth,
the appearing of feeling born of contact by the tongue, -
this is the arising of suffering,
the establishing of diseases,
the appearing of decay-and-death.

The arising,
the establishing,
the rebirth,
the appearing of feeling born of contact by the body, -
this is the arising of suffering,
the establishing of diseases,
the appearing of decay-and-death.

The arising,
the establishing,
the rebirth,
the appearing of feeling born of contact by the mind, -
this is the arising of suffering,
the establishing of diseases,
the appearing of decay-and-death.

 

§

 

Moreover, brethren, the ceasing,
the calming,
the coming to an end of feeling born of contact by the eye, -
that is the ceasing of suffering,
the calming of disease,
the coming to an end of decay-and-death.

The ceasing,
the calming,
the coming to an end of feeling born of contact by the ear, -
that is the ceasing of suffering,
the calming of disease,
the coming to an end of decay-and-death.

The ceasing,
the calming,
the coming to an end of feeling born of contact by the nose, -
that is the ceasing of suffering,
the calming of disease,
the coming to an end of decay-and-death.

The ceasing,
the calming,
the coming to an end of feeling born of contact by the tongue, -
that is the ceasing of suffering,
the calming of disease,
the coming to an end of decay-and-death.

The ceasing,
the calming,
the coming to an end of feeling born of contact by the body, -
that is the ceasing of suffering,
the calming of disease,
the coming to an end of decay-and-death.

The ceasing,
the calming,
the coming to an end of feeling born of contact by the mind, -
that is the ceasing of suffering,
the calming of disease,
the coming to an end of decay-and-death."
