Samādhisutta
Develop concentration, disciples; a disciple who is concentrated knows things as they really are.
What does he know as it really is? The arising and passing away of form, feeling, perception, formations, and consciousness.
And what is the arising of form, feeling, perception, formations, and consciousness?
Here a disciple takes pleasure in, welcomes, and remains holding to.
And what does he take pleasure in, welcome, and remain holding to?
He takes pleasure in, welcomes, and remains holding to form.
From taking pleasure in, welcoming, and remaining holding to form, pleasure arises.
The pleasure in form is clinging.
With clinging as condition, there is becoming; with becoming as condition, there is birth; with birth as condition, arise aging and death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, displeasure, and despair.
Thus arises this entire mass of suffering.
He takes pleasure in feeling…
He takes pleasure in perception…
He takes pleasure in formations…
He takes pleasure in consciousness, welcomes, and remains holding to.
From taking pleasure in, welcoming, and remaining holding to consciousness, pleasure arises.
The pleasure in consciousness is clinging.
With clinging as condition, there is becoming; with becoming as condition, there is birth; with birth as condition...
Thus arises this entire mass of suffering.
This is the arising of form, feeling, perception, formations, and consciousness.
And what is the passing away of form, feeling, perception, formations, and consciousness?
Here one does not take pleasure in, welcome, or remain holding to.
And what does one not take pleasure in, welcome, or remain holding to?
One does not take pleasure in, welcome, or remain holding to form.
For one not taking pleasure in, not welcoming, and not remaining holding to form, the pleasure in form ceases.
With the cessation of pleasure, there is the cessation of clinging; with the cessation of clinging, there is the cessation of becoming...
thus ceases this entire mass of suffering.
One does not take pleasure in feeling… One does not take pleasure in perception…
One does not take pleasure in formations, does not welcome, and does not remain holding to.
For one not taking pleasure in, not welcoming, and not remaining holding to formations, the pleasure in formations ceases.
With the cessation of pleasure, there is the cessation of clinging; with the cessation of clinging, there is the cessation of becoming...
thus ceases this entire mass of suffering.
One does not take pleasure in consciousness, does not welcome, and does not remain holding to.
For one not taking pleasure in, not welcoming, and not remaining holding to consciousness, the pleasure in consciousness ceases.
With the cessation of pleasure, there is the cessation of clinging...
thus ceases this entire mass of suffering.
This is the passing away of form, feeling, perception, formations, and consciousness.
