SN 23.15 Suffering – Dukkhasutta
At Sāvatthī.
Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
Seated to one side, Venerable Rādha said to the Buddha:
Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā rādho bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
“Sir, they speak of this thing called ‘suffering’.
“‘dukkhaṁ, dukkhan’ti, bhante, vuccati.
What is suffering?”
Katamaṁ nu kho, bhante, dukkhan”ti?
“Rādha, form, feeling, perception, saṅkhāra, and consciousness are suffering.
“Rūpaṁ kho, rādha, dukkhaṁ, vedanā dukkhā, saññā dukkhā, saṅkhārā dukkhā, viññāṇaṁ dukkhaṁ.
Seeing this …
Evaṁ passaṁ …pe…
They understand: ‘… there is no return to any state of existence.’”
nāparaṁ itthattāyāti pajānātī”ti.
