sn22.100:1.3 No first point is found of sentient beings roaming and transmigrating, shrouded by ignorance and fettered by craving.
sn22.100:1.4 Suppose a mutt on a leash was tethered to a strong post or pillar. Whether walking, standing, sitting, or lying down, it stays right beside that post or pillar.

sn22.100:1.7 perception …
sn22.100:1.8 choices …
sn22.100:1.9 consciousness like this: ‘This is mine, I am this, this is my self.’
sn22.100:1.10 When walking, they walk right beside the five grasping aggregates.
sn22.100:1.11 When standing …

sn22.100:1.17 Sentient beings are purified because the mind is purified.
