What three? The defilements of sensuality, desire to be reborn, and ignorance. These are the three defilements.\u201d The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said: \u201cStilled, aware, a mindful disciple of the Buddha understands defilements, the cause of defilements, where they cease, and the path that leads to their ending. With the ending of defilements, a mendicant is hungerless, quenched.\u201d This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard.","title":"Defilements (1st)","tradition":"Khuddaka Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":99}
