[395] "Might there be, by yet another method, …" … And how might there be? "Whatever suffering (dukkha) originates, all of it has consciousness (viññāṇa) as its condition (paccaya)" — this is one contemplation. "But with the remainderless fading away (virāga) and cessation (nirodha) of that very consciousness, there is no origination of suffering" — this is the second contemplation. For one who rightly contemplates dualities (dvayatā) thus … And further the Teacher said this:
Whatever suffering originates, all of it has consciousness as its condition;
with the cessation of consciousness, there is no origination of suffering.
Having known this danger (ādīnava) — "suffering has consciousness as its condition" —
through the stilling of consciousness a bhikkhu, hungerless, is fully quenched.
