[237] Therein, bhikkhus, the instructed noble disciple attends carefully and wisely (yoniso manasikaroti) to dependent origination (paṭiccasamuppāda) itself thus: 'When this exists, this comes to be; with the arising of this, this arises. When this does not exist, this does not come to be; with the cessation (nirodha) of this, this ceases.'
Bhikkhus, in dependence on a contact (phassa) to be experienced as pleasant, a pleasant feeling (vedanā) arises. With the cessation of that very contact to be experienced as pleasant, the corresponding feeling — the pleasant feeling that arose in dependence on that contact to be experienced as pleasant — ceases, it subsides.
Bhikkhus, in dependence on a contact to be experienced as painful, a painful feeling arises. With the cessation of that very contact to be experienced as painful, the corresponding feeling — the painful feeling that arose in dependence on that contact to be experienced as painful — ceases, it subsides.
Bhikkhus, in dependence on a contact to be experienced as neither-painful-nor-pleasant, a neither-painful-nor-pleasant feeling arises. With the cessation of that very contact to be experienced as neither-painful-nor-pleasant, the corresponding feeling — the neither-painful-nor-pleasant feeling that arose in dependence on that contact to be experienced as neither-painful-nor-pleasant — ceases, it subsides.
