9. The Discourse on Subject to Destruction
178.
At Sāvatthī.
Seated to one side, the Venerable Rādha said this to the Blessed One -
"'Subject to destruction, subject to destruction', venerable sir, is said.
What indeed, venerable sir, is subject to destruction?"
"Matter, Rādha, is subject to destruction, feeling is subject to destruction, perception is subject to destruction, activities are subject to destruction, consciousness is subject to destruction.
Seeing thus, etc.
He understands: ... there is no more coming back to any state of being.'"
The ninth.
