“सेय्यथापि, भिक्खवे, तेलञ्च पटिच्च वट्टिञ्च पटिच्च तेलप्पदीपो झायेय्य। तत्र पुरिसो कालेन कालं तेलं आसिञ्चेय्य वट्टिं उपसंहरेय्य। एवञ्हि सो, भिक्खवे, तेलप्पदीपो तदाहारो तदुपादानो चिरं दीघमद्धानं जलेय्य।
“Seyyathāpi, bhikkhave, telañca paṭicca vaṭṭiñca paṭicca telappadīpo jhāyeyya. Tatra puriso kālena kālaṁ telaṁ āsiñceyya vaṭṭiṁ upasaṁhareyya. Evañhi so, bhikkhave, telappadīpo tadāhāro tadupādāno ciraṁ dīghamaddhānaṁ jaleyya.
“Bhikkhus, suppose an oil lamp depended on oil and a wick to burn. And from time to time someone would pour oil in and adjust the wick. Fueled and sustained by that, the oil lamp would burn for a long time.
एवमेव खो, भिक्खवे, संयोजनियेसु धम्मेसु अस्सादानुपस्सिनो विहरतो तण्हा पवड्ढति। तण्हापच्चया उपादानं …पे… एवमेतस्स केवलस्स दुक्खक्खन्धस्स समुदयो होति।
Evameva kho, bhikkhave, saṁyojaniyesu dhammesu assādānupassino viharato taṇhā pavaḍḍhati. Taṇhāpaccayā upādānaṁ …pe… evametassa kevalassa dukkhakkhandhassa samudayo hoti.
In the same way, there are things that are prone to being fettered. When you concentrate on the gratification provided by these things, your craving grows. Craving is a condition for grasping. … That is how this entire mass of suffering originates.
सेय्यथापि, भिक्खवे, तेलञ्च पटिच्च वट्टिञ्च पटिच्च तेलप्पदीपो झायेय्य। तत्र पुरिसो न कालेन कालं तेलं आसिञ्चेय्य न वट्टिं उपसंहरेय्य। एवञ्हि सो, भिक्खवे, तेलप्पदीपो पुरिमस्स च उपादानस्स परियादाना अञ्ञस्स च अनुपहारा अनाहारो निब्बायेय्य।
Seyyathāpi, bhikkhave, telañca paṭicca vaṭṭiñca paṭicca telappadīpo jhāyeyya. Tatra puriso na kālena kālaṁ telaṁ āsiñceyya na vaṭṭiṁ upasaṁhareyya. Evañhi so, bhikkhave, telappadīpo purimassa ca upādānassa pariyādānā aññassa ca anupahārā anāhāro nibbāyeyya.
Suppose an oil lamp depended on oil and a wick to burn. And no-one would pour oil in and adjust the wick from time to time. As the original fuel is used up and no more is added, the oil lamp would be extinguished due to lack of fuel.
एवमेव खो, भिक्खवे, संयोजनियेसु धम्मेसु आदीनवानुपस्सिनो विहरतो तण्हा निरुज्झति। तण्हानिरोधा उपादाननिरोधो …पे… एवमेतस्स केवलस्स दुक्खक्खन्धस्स निरोधो होती”ति।
Evameva kho, bhikkhave, saṁyojaniyesu dhammesu ādīnavānupassino viharato taṇhā nirujjhati. Taṇhānirodhā upādānanirodho …pe… evametassa kevalassa dukkhakkhandhassa nirodho hotī”ti.
In the same way, there are things that are prone to being fettered. When you concentrate on the drawbacks of these things, your craving ceases. When craving ceases, grasping ceases. … That is how this entire mass of suffering ceases.”
