Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

Bhikkhū, when what exists, because of grasping what and insisting on what, do fetters, insistence, and shackles arise?”

“Kismiṁ nu kho, bhikkhave, sati, kiṁ upādāya, kiṁ abhinivissa uppajjanti saṁyojanābhinivesavinibandhā”ti?

Bhagavaṁmūlakā no, bhante, dhammā …pe…

“Yaṁ panāniccaṁ …pe…

“But by not grasping what’s anicca, suffering, and perishable, would fetters, insistence, and shackles arise?”

api nu taṁ anupādāya uppajjeyyuṁ saṁyojanābhinivesavinibandhā”ti?

“No, sir.” …

“No hetaṁ, bhante” …pe…

“Seeing this …

“evaṁ passaṁ …pe…

They understand: ‘… there is no return to any state of existence.’”

nāparaṁ itthattāyāti pajānātī”ti.
