| It.105 | Ta.nhuppaada Sutta | Ta.nhaa Sutta | Bhikkhus, there are four things that arouse craving whereby the craving that has arisen in a bhikkhu arises. What are the four? Because of robes, because of almsfood, because of a dwelling place, because of gaining this or losing that the craving that has arisen in a bhikkhu arises. These, bhikkhus, are the four things that arouse craving whereby the craving that has arisen in a bhikkhu arises. A man companioned by craving Wanders on the long journey In this state of being or another And cannot go beyond samsara. Having understood the danger thus, That craving is the origin of suffering, A bhikkhu should wander mindfully, Free from craving, without grasping. | 45/666 | Itivuttaka | Khuddhaka | It.109 | craving |
