Liable To Cease

Nirodhadhammasutta

from: 2. About Māra (2nd)

Liable To Cease

At Sāvatthī.

Seated to one side, Venerable Rādha said to the Buddha:

“Sir, they speak of a ‘liability to cease’. What has a liability to cease?”

“Rādha, form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness have a liability to cease.

Seeing this … They understand: ‘… there is nothing further for this place.’”
