SN 45.29 Feeling – Vedanāsutta

 

At Sāvatthī.

Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

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 vedanā.

The noble eightfold path should be developed to completely understand these three feelings.

Imāsaṁ kho, bhikkhave, tissannaṁ vedanānaṁ pariññāya ariyo aṭṭhaṅgiko maggo bhāvetabbo.

What is the noble eightfold path?

Katamo ariyo aṭṭhaṅgiko maggo?

It is right view, right thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right samādhi.

Seyyathidaṁ—sammādiṭṭhi …pe… sammāsamādhi.

This noble eightfold path should be developed to completely understand these three feelings.”

Imāsaṁ kho, bhikkhave, tissannaṁ vedanānaṁ pariññāya ariyo aṭṭhaṅgiko maggo bhāvetabbo”ti.
