Sāvatthiyaṁ viharati.
At Sāvatthi.
“Yañca, bhikkhave, ceteti yañca pakappeti yañca anuseti, ārammaṇametaṁ hoti viññāṇassa ṭhitiyā. Ārammaṇe sati patiṭṭhā viññāṇassa hoti. Tasmiṁ patiṭṭhite viññāṇe virūḷhe āyatiṁ punabbhavābhinibbatti hoti. Āyatiṁ punabbhavābhinibbattiyā sati āyatiṁ jāti jarāmaraṇaṁ sokaparidevadukkhadomanassupāyāsā sambhavanti. Evametassa kevalassa dukkhakkhandhassa samudayo hoti.
“Here, whatever one intends, what one plans, and whatever one has a tendency towards, this becomes a basis for the continuity of consciousness. When there is a basis, there is the establishing of consciousness. When consciousness is established and grows, there is the production of renewed existence in future. When there is the production of renewed existence in future, future birth, aging and death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, displeasure, and despair come to be. Thus is the arising of this entire mass of suffering.
No ce, bhikkhave, ceteti no ce pakappeti, atha ce anuseti, ārammaṇametaṁ hoti viññāṇassa ṭhitiyā. Ārammaṇe sati patiṭṭhā viññāṇassa hoti. Tasmiṁ patiṭṭhite viññāṇe virūḷhe āyatiṁ punabbhavābhinibbatti hoti. Āyatiṁ punabbhavābhinibbattiyā sati āyatiṁ jāti jarāmaraṇaṁ sokaparidevadukkhadomanassupāyāsā sambhavanti. Evametassa kevalassa dukkhakkhandhassa samudayo hoti.
If one does not intend and does not plan, but still has an underlying tendency, this becomes a basis for the establishing of consciousness. When there is a basis, there is the establishing of consciousness. When consciousness is established and grows, there is the production of renewed existence in future. When there is the production of renewed existence in future, future birth, aging and death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, displeasure, and despair come to be. Thus is the arising of this entire heap of suffering.
Yato ca kho, bhikkhave, no ceva ceteti no ca pakappeti no ca anuseti, ārammaṇametaṁ na hoti viññāṇassa ṭhitiyā. Ārammaṇe asati patiṭṭhā viññāṇassa na hoti. Tadappatiṭṭhite viññāṇe avirūḷhe āyatiṁ punabbhavābhinibbatti na hoti. Āyatiṁ punabbhavābhinibbattiyā asati āyatiṁ jāti jarāmaraṇaṁ sokaparidevadukkhadomanassupāyāsā nirujjhanti. Evametassa kevalassa dukkhakkhandhassa nirodho hotī”ti.
However, when one neither intends, nor plans, nor has any underlying tendency, there is no basis for the continuity of consciousness. With no basis, there is no support for the continuity of consciousness. When consciousness is not established and does not come to growth, there is no production of renewed existence in future. When there is no production of renewed existence in future, future birth, aging and death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, displeasure, and despair do not come to be. Thus there is the cessation of this entire heap of suffering.”
