sn35.93:1.1 “Mendicants, consciousness originates dependent on a duality.
BAGIAN 1
sn35.93:1.2 And what is that duality?
sn35.93:1.3 Eye consciousness arises dependent on the eye and sights.
sn35.93:1.4 The eye is impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
sn35.93:1.5 Sights are impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
sn35.93:1.6 So this duality is tottering and toppling; it’s impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
sn35.93:1.7 Eye consciousness is impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
sn35.93:1.8 And the causes and reasons that give rise to eye consciousness are also impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
sn35.93:1.9 But since eye consciousness has arisen dependent on conditions that are impermanent, how could it be permanent?
sn35.93:1.10 The meeting, coming together, and joining together of these three things is called eye contact.
sn35.93:1.11 Eye contact is also impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
sn35.93:1.12 And the causes and reasons that give rise to eye contact are also impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
sn35.93:1.13 But since eye contact has arisen dependent on conditions that are impermanent, how could it be permanent?
sn35.93:1.14 Contacted one feels; contacted one intends; contacted one perceives.
sn35.93:1.15 So these things too are tottering and toppling; they’re impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
