- © Translated from the Pali by Bhante Sujato. (More copyright information)
1At Sāvatthī.
Seated to one side, Venerable Rādha said to the Buddha:
“Sir, they speak of this thing called ‘suffering’. What is suffering?”
“Rādha, form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness are suffering.
Seeing this … They understand: ‘… there is no return to any state of existence.’”
1Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā rādho bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
"‘dukkhaṁ, dukkhan’ti, bhante, vuccati. Katamaṁ nu kho, bhante, dukkhan"ti?
"Rūpaṁ kho, rādha, dukkhaṁ, vedanā dukkhā, saññā dukkhā, saṅkhārā dukkhā, viññāṇaṁ dukkhaṁ.
Evaṁ passaṁ … pe … nāparaṁ itthattāyāti pajānātī"ti.
Pañcamaṁ.
