Sights, Etc.

At Sāvatthī.

“What do you think, Rāhula?

Are sights permanent or impermanent?”

“Impermanent, sir.” …

“… sounds …

smells …

tastes …

touches …

Are ideas permanent or impermanent?”

“Impermanent, sir.” …

“Seeing this, a learned noble disciple grows disillusioned with sights, sounds, smells, tastes, touches, and ideas.

Being disillusioned, desire fades away. …”
