Entailing Suffering

At Sāvatthī.
Seated to one side, Venerable Rādha said to the Buddha:
“Sir, they speak of ‘things that entail suffering’.
What are the things that entail suffering?”
“Rādha, form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness are things that entail suffering.
Seeing this …
They understand: ‘… there is no return to any state of existence.’”
