Conditional Arising
Avijjāpaccayā saṅkhārā,
With ignorance as condition there are (volitional) processes,
saṅkhārapaccayā viññāṇaṁ,
with (volitional) processes as condition: consciousness,
viññāṇapaccayā nāmarūpaṁ,
with consciousness as condition: mind and body,
nāmarūpapaccayā saḷāyatanaṁ,
with mind as condition and body: the six sense spheres,
saḷāyatanapaccayā phasso,
with the six sense spheres as condition: contact,
phassapaccayā vedanā,
with contact as condition: feeling,
vedanāpaccayā taṇhā,
with feeling as condition: craving,
taṇhāpaccayā upādānaṁ,
with craving as condition: attachment,
upādānapaccayā bhavo,
with attachment as condition: continuation,
bhavapaccayā jāti,
with continuation as condition: birth,
jātipaccayā jarāmaraṇaṁ,
with birth as condition: old age, death,
sokaparidevadukkhadomanassupāyāsā sambhavanti,
grief, lamentation, pain, sorrow, and despair (all) originate,
evam-etassa kevalassa dukkhakkhandhassa samudayo hoti.
and so this whole mass of suffering comes to arise.
Avijjāya tveva asesavirāganirodhā saṅkhāranirodho,
But with the complete fading away and cessation of ignorance, there is the cessation of
(volitional) processes,
saṅkhāranirodhā viññāṇanirodho,
with the cessation of (volitional) processes, the cessation of consciousness,
viññāṇanirodhā nāmarūpanirodho,
with the cessation of consciousness, the cessation of mind and body,
