Sutta 33
Jāti-dhamma Suttaɱ
Subject to Birth
"Bhikkhus, all is subject to birth.
And what, bhikkhus, is the all that is subject to birth?
[27] The eye is subject to birth.
Forms ...
Eye-consciousness ...
Eye-contact ...
Whatever feeling arises with eye-contact as condition ... that too is subject to birth.
"The ear ...
The tongue ...
The body ...
The mind ...
Whatever feeling arises with mind-contact as condition ... that too is subject to birth.
"Seeing thus, bhikkhus, the instructed noble disciple experiences revulsion towards the eye, towards forms, towards eye-consciousness, towards eye-contact ...
He understands:
'... there is no more for this state of being."
