sn.15.12 Saṁyutta Nikāya (Linked Discourses)

In a Good Way

At Sāvatthī.
“Mendicants, transmigration has no known beginning. …
When you see someone in a good way, in a happy state, you should conclude:
‘In all this long time, we too have undergone the same thing.’
Why is that?
Transmigration has no known beginning. …

This is quite enough for you to become disillusioned, dispassionate, and freed regarding all conditions.”
