The Samyutta Nikaya
The Grouped Discourses
Samyutta
Nikaya
XV.12
Sukhita
Sutta
Happy
Translated
from
the
Pali
by
Thanissaro
Bhikkhu
At
Savatthi.
There
the
Blessed
One
said:
"From
an
inconstruable
beginning
comes
transmigration.
A
beginning
point
is
not
evident,
though
beings
hindered
by
ignorance
and
fettered
by
craving
are
transmigrating
&
wandering
on.
When
you
see
someone
who
is
happy
&
well-provided
in
life,
you
should
conclude:
'We,
too,
have
experienced
just
this
sort
of
thing
in
the
course
of
that
long,
long
time.'
"Why
is
that?
From
an
inconstruable
beginning
comes
transmigration.
A
beginning
point
is
not
evident,
though
beings
hindered
by
ignorance
and
fettered
by
craving
are
transmigrating
&
wandering
on.
Long
have
you
thus
experienced
stress,
experienced
pain,
experienced
loss,
swelling
the
cemeteries
--
enough
to
become
disenchanted
with
all
fabricated
things,
enough
to
become
dispassionate,
enough
to
be
released."
