There he addressed the monks: "Monks!" "Yes, lord," the monks responded to him. The Blessed One said: "Develop concentration, monks. A concentrated monk discerns in line with what has come into being. And what does he discern in line with what has come into being? The origination1 & disappearance of form. The origination & disappearance of feelingâ¦ perceptionâ¦ fabrications. The origination & disappearance of consciousness. "And what is the origination of formâ¦ feelingâ¦ perceptionâ¦ fabrications? What is the origination of consciousness? "There is the case where one enjoys, welcomes, & remains fastened. And what does one enjoy & welcome, to what does one remain fastened? One enjoys, welcomes, & remains fastened to form. As one enjoys, welcomes, & remains fastened to form, there arises delight. Any delight in form is clinging. From clinging/sustenance as a requisite condition comes becoming. From becoming as a requisite condition comes birth. From birth as a requisite condition, then aging & death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, distress, & despair come into play. Such is the origination of this entire mass of stress & suffering. "One enjoys, welcomes, & remains fastened to feelingâ¦ perceptionâ¦ fabricationsâ¦ "One enjoys, welcomes, & remains fastened to consciousness. As one enjoys, welcomes, & remains fastened to consciousness, there arises delight. Any delight in consciousness is clinging. From clinging/sustenance as a requisite condition comes becoming.

Such is the origination of this entire mass of stress & suffering. "This, monks, is the origination of form. This, the origination of feelingâ¦ perceptionâ¦ fabrications. This, the origination of consciousness." "And what is the disappearance of formâ¦ feelingâ¦ perceptionâ¦ fabrications? What is the disappearance of consciousness? "There is the case where one doesnât enjoy, welcome, or remain fastened. And what does one not enjoy or welcome, to what does one not remain fastened? One doesnât enjoy, welcome, or remain fastened to form. As one doesnât enjoy, welcome, or remain fastened to form, any delight in form ceases. From the cessation of delight comes the cessation of clinging. From the cessation of clinging/sustenance, the cessation of becoming. From the cessation of becoming, the cessation of birth. From the cessation of birth, then aging & death, sorrow, lamentation, pain, distress, & despair all cease. Such is the cessation of this entire mass of stress & suffering.

As the following discussion shows, "origination" means, not the simple arising of phenomena, but the cause of their arising. This point has important implications for the establishing of mindfulness. See DNÂ 22. For an alternative description of the origination of the aggregates, see SNÂ 22:56–57.
