sn36.10:1.2 What three?
sn36.10:1.3 Pleasant, painful, and neutral feeling.
sn36.10:1.4 Pleasant feeling arises dependent on a contact to be experienced as pleasant.
sn36.10:1.5 With the cessation of that contact to be experienced as pleasant, the corresponding pleasant feeling ceases and stops.
sn36.10:1.6 Painful feeling arises dependent on a contact to be experienced as painful.
sn36.10:1.7 With the cessation of that contact to be experienced as painful, the corresponding painful feeling ceases and stops.
sn36.10:1.8 Neutral feeling arises dependent on a contact to be experienced as neutral.
sn36.10:1.9 With the cessation of that contact to be experienced as neutral, the corresponding neutral feeling ceases and stops.
sn36.10:1.10 When you rub two sticks together, heat is generated and fire is produced. But when you part the sticks and lay them aside, any corresponding heat ceases and stops.
sn36.10:1.11 In the same way, these three feelings are born, rooted, sourced, and dependent on contact.
sn36.10:1.12 The appropriate feeling arises dependent on the corresponding contact.
sn36.10:1.13 When the corresponding contact ceases, the appropriate feeling ceases.”
