Clinging

translated from the Pali by

Thanissaro Bhikkhu

At Savatthi. There the Blessed One said, "Monks, I will teach you clingable phenomena & clinging. Listen & pay close attention. I will speak."

"As you say, lord," the monks responded.

The Blessed One said, "And what, monks, are clingable phenomena? What is clinging?

"Form is a clingable phenomenon. Any desire-passion related to it, is clinging related to it.

"Feeling is a clingable phenomenon. Any desire-passion related to it, is clinging related to it.

"Perception is a clingable phenomenon. Any desire-passion related to it, is clinging related to it.

"Fabrications are clingable phenomena. Any desire-passion related to them, is clinging related to them.

"Consciousness is a clingable phenomenon. Any desire-passion related to it, is clinging related to it.

"These are called clingable phenomena. This is clinging."
