Saṁyutta Nikāya — Discursos Conectados — 24.4 — It Might Not Be Mine

1At Sāvatthī.

2“Mendicants, when what exists, because of grasping what and insisting on what, does the view arise: ‘I might not be, and it might not be mine. I will not be, and it will not be mine’?”

3“Our teachings are rooted in the Buddha. …”

4“When form exists, because of grasping form and insisting on form, the view arises: ‘I might not be, and it might not be mine. I will not be, and it will not be mine.’ When feeling … perception … choices … consciousness exists, because of grasping consciousness and insisting on consciousness, the view arises: ‘I might not be, and it might not be mine. I will not be, and it will not be mine.’

5What do you think, mendicants? Is form permanent or impermanent?”

6“Impermanent, sir.” …

8“Is feeling … perception … choices … consciousness permanent or impermanent?”

9“Impermanent, sir.” …

11“That which is seen, heard, thought, known, attained, sought, and explored by the mind: is that permanent or impermanent?”

12“Impermanent, sir.” …

13“But by not grasping what’s impermanent, suffering, and perishable, would such a view arise?”

14“No, sir.”

15“When a noble disciple has given up doubt regarding these six grounds, and has given up doubt in suffering, its origin, its cessation, and the practice that leads to its cessation, they’re called a noble disciple who is a stream-enterer, not liable to be reborn in the underworld, assured, destined for awakening.”
