SN1_56: Dutiyajanasutta

Dutiyajanasutta - translated by Bhikkhu Bodhi

“What is it that produces a person?
What does he have that runs around?
What enters upon saṁsara?
From what is he not yet freed?”

“Craving is what produces a person;
His mind is what runs around;
A being enters upon saṁsara;
He is not freed from suffering.” sn.i.38
