Astfel am auzit: odata, Fericitul isi petrecea timpul la Uruvela, pe malurile raului Nerañjara, la radacina copacului Trezirii, imediat dupa Trezirea completa. Si in acea vreme, Fericitul era asezat de sapte zile, experimentand bucuria eliberarii. Atunci, Fericitul, dupa ce au trecut cele sapte zile, ridicandu-se din acel samadhi, in prima veghe a noptii, a reflectat profund la aparitia conditionata in ordine directa:
“Aceasta fiind astfel, se intampla aceasta; deoarece apare aceasta, se produce aceasta, adica: conditionate de ignoranta se nasc tendintele subconstiente, conditionata de tendintele subconstiente se naste constiinta, conditionate de constiinta se nasc numele si forma, conditionate de nume si forma se nasc cele sase domenii ale simturilor, conditionat de cele sase domenii ale simturilor se naste contactul, conditionata de contact se naste senzatia, conditionata de senzatie se naste pofta, conditionat de pofta se naste atasamentul, conditionata de atasament se naste devenirea, conditionata de devenire se produce nasterea, conditionate de nastere se produc batranetea si moartea, mahnirea, suspinul, durerea, proasta dispozitie si agitatia. Astfel este aparitia aceastei intregi mase de suferinta“.
Astfel, Fericitul, cunoscand aceasta semnificatie, a spus, cu acea ocazie, vorba aceasta:
“Cu adevarat, atunci cand fenomenele ii devin cunoscute brahmanului ascet contemplativ, toate indoielile sale dispar, caci intelege natura obiectelor conditionate“.
