When Venerable Rādha was seated to one side, the Buddha said to him:

Ekamantaṁ nisinnaṁ kho āyasmantaṁ rādhaṁ bhagavā etadavoca:

“Rādha, you should give up any desire, greed, relishing, and craving for form.

“rūpe kho, rādha, yo chando yo rāgo yā nandī yā taṇhā, taṁ pajahatha.

Thus that form will be given up, cut off at the root, made like a palm stump, obliterated, and unable to arise in the future.

Evaṁ taṁ rūpaṁ pahīnaṁ bhavissati ucchinnamūlaṁ tālāvatthukataṁ anabhāvaṅkataṁ āyatiṁ anuppādadhammaṁ.
