[447] At Sāvatthī. There… "Bhikkhus, when what exists, by clinging to what, by adhering to what, does such a view (diṭṭhi) arise as this: 'The Tathāgata neither exists nor does not exist after death'?" "Venerable sir, our dhammas are rooted in the Blessed One …" "Bhikkhus, when form exists, by clinging to form, by adhering to form, such a view arises as this: 'The Tathāgata neither exists nor does not exist after death.' When feeling (vedanā) exists … When perception exists … When volitional formations exist … When consciousness exists, by clinging to consciousness, by adhering to consciousness, such a view arises as this: 'The Tathāgata neither exists nor does not exist after death.'"
