The Buddha teaches on the six sense bases regarding uprooting tendencies, guiding disciples toward discernment of sense experience and release from clinging.
“Kathaṁ nu kho …pe… anusayā samugghātaṁ gacchantī”ti? “Cakkhuṁ kho, bhikkhu, anattato jānato passato anusayā samugghātaṁ gacchanti …pe… sotaṁ … ghānaṁ … jivhaṁ … kāyaṁ … manaṁ … dhamme … manoviññāṇaṁ … manosamphassaṁ … yampidaṁ manosamphassapaccayā uppajjati vedayitaṁ sukhaṁ vā dukkhaṁ vā adukkhamasukhaṁ vā tampi anattato jānato passato anusayā samugghātaṁ gacchanti. Evaṁ kho, bhikkhu, jānato evaṁ passato anusayā samugghātaṁ gacchantī”ti.
Sattamaṁ.
