The Buddha teaches Venerable Rādha on the five aggregates regarding liable to originate, guiding him toward insight, dispassion, and liberation.
Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā rādho bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
“‘samudayadhammo, samudayadhammo’ti, bhante, vuccati. Katamo nu kho, bhante, samudayadhammo”ti?
“Rūpaṁ kho, rādha, samudayadhammo, vedanā samudayadhammo, saññā samudayadhammo, saṅkhārā samudayadhammo, viññāṇaṁ samudayadhammo.
Evaṁ passaṁ …pe… nāparaṁ itthattāyāti pajānātī”ti.
Ekādasamaṁ.

Sāvatthinidānaṁ.
At Sāvatthī.
Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā rādho bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:
Seated to one side, Venerable Rādha said to the Buddha:
“‘samudayadhammo, samudayadhammo’ti, bhante, vuccati.
“Sir, they speak of a ‘liability to originate’.
Katamo nu kho, bhante, samudayadhammo”ti?
What has a liability to originate?”
“Rūpaṁ kho, rādha, samudayadhammo, vedanā samudayadhammo, saññā samudayadhammo, saṅkhārā samudayadhammo, viññāṇaṁ samudayadhammo.
“Rādha, form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness have a liability to originate.
Evaṁ passaṁ …pe…
Seeing this …
nāparaṁ itthattāyāti pajānātī”ti.
They understand: ‘… there is nothing further for this place.’”
Ekādasamaṁ.
