from: 1. With Vacchagotta

Not Directly Experiencing Consciousness

At Sāvatthī.

“Vaccha, it is because of not directly experiencing consciousness, its origin, its cessation, and the practice that leads to its cessation that these various misconceptions arise in the world. This is the cause, this is the reason.”

The Linked Discourses with Vacchagotta are completed.
