The Word of the Buddha The Threefold Craving
The Word of the BuddhaII. The Noble Truth of the Origin of Suffering
SN 56.11 ¶5
This, bhikkhus, is the noble truth of the arising of suffering: it is this craving which leads to rebirth, accompanied by delight and passion, seeking delight here and there; namely, craving for sensual pleasures, craving for existence, craving for non-becoming.
