Liable to End

Khayadhammasutta

EN
At Sāvatthī. Seated to one side, Venerable Rādha said to the Buddha: “Sir, they speak of a ‘liability to end’. What has a liability to end?”
PL
Sāvatthinidānaṁ. Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā rādho bhagavantaṁ etadavoca: “‘khayadhammo, khayadhammo’ti, bhante, vuccati. Katamo nu kho, bhante, khayadhammo”ti?
EN
“Rādha, form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness have a liability to end. Seeing this … They understand: ‘… there is nothing further for this place.’”
PL
“Rūpaṁ kho, rādha, khayadhammo, vedanā khayadhammo, saññā khayadhammo, saṅkhārā khayadhammo, viññāṇaṁ khayadhammo. Evaṁ passaṁ …pe… nāparaṁ itthattāyāti pajānātī”ti. Navamaṁ.
