Bhikkhū, transmigration has no known beginning. …

“Anamataggoyaṁ, bhikkhave, saṁsāro …pe…

When you see someone in a good way, in a happy state, you should conclude:

yaṁ, bhikkhave, passeyyātha sukhitaṁ susajjitaṁ, niṭṭhamettha gantabbaṁ:

‘In all this long time, we too have undergone the same thing.’

‘amhehipi evarūpaṁ paccanubhūtaṁ iminā dīghena addhunā’ti.

Taṁ kissa hetu?

Transmigration has no known beginning. …
