sn12.15:3.1 ‘All exists’: this is one extreme.
sn12.15:3.2 ‘All does not exist’: this is the second extreme.
sn12.15:3.3 Avoiding these two extremes, the Realized One teaches by the middle way:
sn12.15:3.4 ‘Ignorance is a requirement for choices.
sn12.15:3.5 Choices are a requirement for consciousness. …
sn12.15:3.6 That is how this entire mass of suffering originates.
sn12.15:3.7 When ignorance fades away and ceases with no residue left behind, choices cease.
sn12.15:3.8 When choices cease, consciousness ceases. …
sn12.15:3.9 That is how this entire mass of suffering ceases.’”
