SN 35.166 Giving Up Identity View – Sakkāyadiṭṭhipahānasutta

 

Then a bhikkhu went up to the Buddha …

Atha kho aññataro bhikkhu …pe…

and said to him:

etadavoca:

“Sir, how does one know and see so that identity view is given up?”

“kathaṁ nu kho, bhante, jānato kathaṁ passato sakkāyadiṭṭhi pahīyatī”ti?

“Bhikkhu, knowing and seeing the eye, sights, eye consciousness, and eye contact as suffering, identity view is given up. …

“Cakkhuṁ kho, bhikkhu, dukkhato jānato passato sakkāyadiṭṭhi pahīyati.

 

Rūpe dukkhato jānato passato sakkāyadiṭṭhi pahīyati.

 

Cakkhuviññāṇaṁ dukkhato jānato passato sakkāyadiṭṭhi pahīyati.

 

Cakkhusamphassaṁ dukkhato jānato passato sakkāyadiṭṭhi pahīyati …pe…

And also knowing and seeing the pleasant, painful, or neutral feeling that arises conditioned by mind contact as suffering, identity view is given up.

yampidaṁ manosamphassapaccayā uppajjati vedayitaṁ sukhaṁ vā dukkhaṁ vā adukkhamasukhaṁ vā tampi dukkhato jānato passato sakkāyadiṭṭhi pahīyati.

This is how to know and see so that identity view is given up.”

Evaṁ kho, bhikkhu, jānato evaṁ passato sakkāyadiṭṭhi pahīyatī”ti.
