[211] "Bhikkhus, suppose there were a great tree. Then a man would come along, bringing a spade and a basket. He would cut that tree down at the root; having cut it at the root, he would dig it up; having dug it up, he would pull out the roots … or he would let them be carried away by a swiftly flowing river. In this way, bhikkhus, that great tree would be cut off at the root, made like a palm stump, brought to non-existence, no longer subject to arising in the future. So too, bhikkhus, for one who dwells contemplating the danger in things that can be clung to, craving (taṇhā) ceases. With the cessation (nirodha) of craving comes the cessation of clinging (upādāna) … Such is the cessation of this whole mass of suffering (dukkha)."
