[55] Bhikkhus, all is afflicted. And what, bhikkhus, is the all that is afflicted? The eye, bhikkhus, is afflicted, forms are afflicted, eye-consciousness is afflicted, eye-contact is afflicted; and whatever feeling (vedanā) arises with eye-contact as condition—whether pleasant, or painful, or neither-painful-nor-pleasant—that too is afflicted. … The tongue is afflicted, tastes are afflicted, tongue-consciousness is afflicted, tongue-contact is afflicted; and whatever feeling arises with tongue-contact as condition—whether pleasant, or painful, or neither-painful-nor-pleasant—that too is afflicted. The mind (mano) is afflicted, mental phenomena (dhammā) are afflicted, mind-consciousness is afflicted, mind-contact is afflicted; and whatever feeling arises with mind-contact as condition—whether pleasant, or painful, or neither-painful-nor-pleasant—that too is afflicted. Seeing thus, bhikkhus, the instructed noble disciple becomes disenchanted with the eye too … he understands: "… there is no more coming to any state of existence." The Impermanent Chapter, the fifth. Its summary: Impermanent, suffering, and non-self; to be directly known, to be fully understood; to be abandoned, to be realized; to be directly known, to be fully understood; disturbed, afflicted— by these the chapter is designated. The first fifty (paṇṇāsaka) in the Saḷāyatana division. Its summary: The Pure Chapter and the Pairs, the All Chapter and those on aging (jarā), and the Impermanent Chapter—fifty; thereby the fifth is designated. The Ignorance Chapter, the first.
