TaṇhāmÅ«lakasutta Rooted in Craving

ā€œNava, bhikkhave, taṇhāmÅ«lake dhamme desessāmi, taṁ suṇātha. ā€œMendicants, I will teach you about nine things rooted in craving.

Katame ca, bhikkhave, nava taṇhāmÅ«lakā dhammā? And what are the nine things rooted in craving?

Taṇhaṁ paį¹­icca pariyesanā, pariyesanaṁ paį¹­icca lābho, lābhaṁ paį¹­icca vinicchayo, vinicchayaṁ paį¹­icca chandarāgo, chandarāgaṁ paį¹­icca ajjhosānaṁ, ajjhosānaṁ paį¹­icca pariggaho, pariggahaṁ paį¹­icca macchariyaṁ, macchariyaṁ paį¹­icca ārakkho, ārakkhādhikaraṇaṁ daį¹‡įøÄdānaṁ satthādānaṁ kalahaviggahavivādatuvaṁtuvaṁpesuƱƱamusāvādā aneke pāpakā akusalā dhammā sambhavanti. Craving gives rise to searching. Searching gives rise to gaining material things. Gaining material things gives rise to evaluation. Evaluation gives rise to desire and lust. Desire and lust gives rise to attachment. Attachment gives rise to ownership. Ownership gives rise to stinginess. Stinginess gives rise to safeguarding. Owing to safeguarding, many bad, unskillful things come to be: taking up the rod and the sword, quarrels, arguments, and disputes, accusations, divisive speech, and lies.

Ime kho, bhikkhave, nava taṇhāmÅ«lakā dhammÄā€ti. These are the nine things rooted in craving.ā€

Tatiyaṁ.
