Suffering in the Three Times Kālattayadukkhasutta
At Sāvatthī. Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
“Mendicants, form of the past and future is suffering, “Rūpaṁ, bhikkhave, dukkhaṁ atītānāgataṁ; let alone the present. ko pana vādo paccuppannassa.
Seeing this, a learned noble disciple doesn’t worry about past form, Evaṁ passaṁ, bhikkhave, sutavā ariyasāvako atītasmiṁ rūpasmiṁ anapekkho hoti; doesn’t look forward to enjoying future form, anāgataṁ rūpaṁ nābhinandati; and they practice for disillusionment, dispassion, and cessation regarding present form. paccuppannassa rūpassa nibbidāya virāgāya nirodhāya paṭipanno hoti.
Feeling … Vedanā dukkhā …
Perception … saññā dukkhā …
Choices … saṅkhārā dukkhā …
Consciousness of the past and future is suffering, viññāṇaṁ dukkhaṁ atītānāgataṁ; let alone the present. ko pana vādo paccuppannassa.
Seeing this, a learned noble disciple doesn’t worry about past consciousness, Evaṁ passaṁ, bhikkhave, sutavā ariyasāvako atītasmiṁ viññāṇasmiṁ anapekkho hoti; doesn’t look forward to enjoying future consciousness, anāgataṁ viññāṇaṁ nābhinandati; and they practice for disillusionment, dispassion, and cessation regarding present consciousness.” paccuppannassa viññāṇassa nibbidāya virāgāya nirodhāya paṭipanno hotī”ti.
Dasamaṁ.
