Then Venerable Ānanda went up to the Buddha … sat down to one side, and said to him:
5

“कतमाka·ta·mā नुnu खो,kho भन्ते,bhan·te वेदना,ve·da·nā कतमोka·ta·mo वेदनासमुदयो,ve·da·nā·sa·mu·da·yo कतमोka·ta·mo वेदनानिरोधो,ve·da·nā·ni·ro·dho कतमाka·ta·mā वेदनानिरोधगामिनीve·da·nā·ni·ro·dha·gā·mi·nī पटिपदा?pa·ṭi·pa·dā

“katamā nu kho, bhante, vedanā, katamo vedanāsamudayo, katamo vedanānirodho, katamā vedanānirodhagāminī paṭipadā?

“Sir, what is feeling? What’s the origin of feeling? What’s the cessation of feeling? What’s the practice that leads to the cessation of feeling?
6

कोko वेदनायve·da·nā·ya अस्सादो,as·sā·do कोko आदीनवो,ā·dī·na·vo किंkiṃ निस्सरणन्”ति?nis·sa·ra·ṇan

Ko vedanāya assādo, ko ādīnavo, kiṁ nissaraṇan”ti?

And what is feeling’s gratification, drawback, and escape?”
7

“तिस्सोtis·so इमा,i·mā आनन्द,ā·nan·da वेदना—ve·da·nā

“Tisso imā, ānanda, vedanā—

“Ānanda, there are these three feelings:
8

9

These are called feelings.
10

फस्ससमुदयाphas·sa·sa·mu·da·yā वेदनासमुदयो;ve·da·nā·sa·mu·da·yo

Phassasamudayā vedanāsamudayo;

Feeling originates from contact.

Ayameva ariyo aṭṭhaṅgiko maggo vedanānirodhagāminī paṭipadā, seyyathidaṁ—

The practice that leads to the cessation of feelings is simply this noble eightfold path, that is:
13

sammādiṭṭhi …pe… sammāsamādhi.

right view, right purpose, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right immersion.

Yaṁ vedanā aniccā dukkhā vipariṇāmadhammā, ayaṁ vedanāya ādīnavo.
