MN38. The Longer Discourse on the Ending of Craving - Mahātaṇhāsaṅkhaya Sutta

This episode is a narration of the 38th Sutta of the Middle Discourses of the Buddha, The Mahātaṇhāsaṅkhaya Sutta, which translates as “the Longer Discourse on the Ending of Craving”. In this discourse the Buddha teaches dependent origination, showing that consciousness arises dependent on conditions. The Buddha does this to counter the wrong view that a self-identical consciousness transmigrates from one life to the next. This translation of the Mahatanhasankhaya Sutta is by Bhikkhu Sujato and was sourced from Sutta Central. May you all benefit from hearing the original teachings of the Buddha.
