Liable to Suffering Dukkhadhammasutta

At Sāvatthī. Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

Seated to one side, Venerable Rādha said to the Buddha: Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā rādho bhagavantaṁ etadavoca:

“Sir, they speak of having ‘suffering nature’. “‘dukkhadhammo, dukkhadhammo’ti, bhante, vuccati. What is of a nature to suffer?” Katamo nu kho, bhante, dukkhadhammo”ti?

“Rādha, form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness are of a nature to suffer. “Rūpaṁ kho, rādha, dukkhadhammo, vedanā dukkhadhammo, saññā dukkhadhammo, saṅkhārā dukkhadhammo, viññāṇaṁ dukkhadhammo.

Seeing this … Evaṁ passaṁ …pe… They understand: ‘… there is nothing further for this place.’” nāparaṁ itthattāyāti pajānātī”ti.
