Craving For Sights

At Sāvatthī.
“Mendicants, craving for sights is impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
Craving for sounds,
craving for smells,
craving for tastes,
craving for touches,
and craving for thoughts are impermanent, decaying, and perishing.
Someone who has faith and confidence in these principles is called a follower by faith. …”
