Dukkhadhammasutta
Liable to Suffering
Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
At Sāvatthī.
Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā rādho bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
Seated to one side, Venerable Rādha said to the Buddha:
“‘dukkhadhammo, dukkhadhammo’ti, bhante, vuccati.
“Sir, they speak of ‘liable to suffering’.
Katamo nu kho, bhante, dukkhadhammo”ti?
What is liable to suffering?”
“Rūpaṁ kho, rādha, dukkhadhammo, vedanā dukkhadhammo, saññā dukkhadhammo, saṅkhārā dukkhadhammo, viññāṇaṁ dukkhadhammo.
“Rādha, form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness are liable to suffering.
Evaṁ passaṁ …pe…
Seeing this …
nāparaṁ itthattāyāti pajānātī”ti.
They understand: ‘… there is no return to any state of existence.’”
Chaṭṭhaṁ.
