sn36.23:2.1 “Mendicant, there are these three feelings:
sn36.23:2.2 pleasant, painful, and neutral.
sn36.23:2.3 These are called feelings.
sn36.23:2.4 Feeling originates from contact.
sn36.23:2.5 Craving is the practice that leads to the origin of feeling.
sn36.23:2.6 When contact ceases, feeling ceases.
sn36.23:2.7 The practice that leads to the cessation of feelings is simply this noble eightfold path, that is:
sn36.23:2.8 right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion.
sn36.23:2.9 The pleasure and happiness that arise from feeling: this is its gratification.
sn36.23:2.10 That feeling is impermanent, suffering, and perishable: this is its drawback.
sn36.23:2.11 Removing and giving up desire and greed for feeling: this is its escape.”
