SN 45.169 Feelings – Vedanāsutta

 

“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 for the direct knowledge, complete understanding, finishing, and giving up of these three feelings.”

Imāsaṁ kho, bhikkhave, tissannaṁ vedanānaṁ abhiññāya pariññāya parikkhayāya pahānāya …pe… ayaṁ ariyo aṭṭhaṅgiko maggo bhāvetabbo”ti.
