The Discourse on Being Afflicted

52.More DetailsCommentaries "The all, monks, is afflicted. And what, monks, is the all that is afflicted? The eye, monks, is afflicted, visible forms are afflicted, eye-consciousness is afflicted, eye-contact is afflicted. Whatever feeling arises with eye-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant - that too is afflicted. Etc. The tongue is afflicted, flavours are afflicted, tongue-consciousness is afflicted, tongue-contact is afflicted. Whatever feeling arises with tongue-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant - that too is afflicted. The body is afflicted... The mind is afflicted, mental phenomena are afflicted, mind-consciousness is afflicted, mind-contact is afflicted. Whatever feeling arises with mind-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant - that too is afflicted. Seeing thus, monks, a learned noble disciple becomes disenchanted with the eye, becomes disenchanted with visible forms, becomes disenchanted with eye-consciousness, becomes disenchanted with eye-contact. He becomes disenchanted with whatever feeling arises with eye-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant. Etc. He becomes disenchanted with the mind, becomes disenchanted with mental phenomena, becomes disenchanted with mind-consciousness, becomes disenchanted with mind-contact. He becomes disenchanted with whatever feeling arises with mind-contact as condition - whether pleasant or unpleasant or neither-unpleasant-nor-pleasant. Being disenchanted, he becomes dispassionate; through dispassion, he becomes liberated; when liberated, there is the knowledge: 'Liberated.' He understands: 'Birth is eliminated, the holy life has been lived, what had to be done has been done, there is no more coming back to any state of being.'" The tenth.
