At Sāvatthī. Sāvatthinidānaṁ.

Seated to one side, King Pasenadi said to the Buddha, Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho rājā pasenadi kosalo bhagavantaṁ etadavoca: “Sir, how many things arise in the world for its harm, suffering, and discomfort?” “kati nu kho, bhante, lokassa dhammā uppajjamānā uppajjanti ahitāya dukkhāya aphāsuvihārāyā”ti?

“Great king, three things arise in the world for its harm, suffering, and discomfort. “Tayo kho, mahārāja, lokassa dhammā uppajjamānā uppajjanti ahitāya dukkhāya aphāsuvihārāya. What three? Katame tayo? Greed, Lobho kho, mahārāja, lokassa dhammo, uppajjamāno uppajjati ahitāya dukkhāya aphāsuvihārāya. hate, Doso kho, mahārāja, lokassa dhammo, uppajjamāno uppajjati ahitāya dukkhāya aphāsuvihārāya. and delusion. Moho kho, mahārāja, lokassa dhammo, uppajjamāno uppajjati ahitāya dukkhāya aphāsuvihārāya. These three things arise in the world for its harm, suffering, and discomfort.” Ime kho, mahārāja, tayo lokassa dhammā uppajjamānā uppajjanti ahitāya dukkhāya aphāsuvihārāyā”ti.

That is what the Buddha said. … Idamavoca …pe…
