Attānudiṭṭhisutta

Suttapiṭaka · Saṁyuttanikāya · Khandhavaggasaṁyutta · Vol. 17 · Section 358

[358] At Sāvatthī. "Bhikkhus, when what exists, by clinging to what, by adhering to what, does the view of self (attānudiṭṭhi) arise?" "Venerable sir, our teachings are rooted in the Blessed One …" "Bhikkhus, when form (rūpa) exists, by clinging to form, by adhering to form, the view of self arises. When feeling (vedanā) exists … When perception exists … When volitional formations exist … When consciousness exists, by clinging to consciousness, by adhering to consciousness, the view of self arises."
