SN 36.2 Pleasure – Sukhasutta
“Bhikkhū, there are these three feelings.
“Tisso imā, bhikkhave, vedanā.
What three?
Katamā tisso?
Pleasant, painful, and neutral feeling.
Sukhā vedanā, dukkhā vedanā, adukkhamasukhā vedanā—
These are the three feelings.
imā kho, bhikkhave, tisso vedanāti.
Whatever is felt
Sukhaṁ vā yadi vā dukkhaṁ,
internally and externally—
adukkhamasukhaṁ saha;
whether pleasure or pain
Ajjhattañca bahiddhā ca,
as well as what’s neutral—
yaṁ kiñci atthi veditaṁ.
having known this as suffering,
Etaṁ dukkhanti ñatvāna,
deceptive, falling apart,
mosadhammaṁ palokinaṁ;
one sees them vanish as they’re experienced again and again:
Phussa phussa vayaṁ passaṁ,
that’s how to be free of desire for them.”
evaṁ tattha virajjatī”ti.
